I often Sky+ programmes then watch them later so that I can just skip the adverts ! Makes sense and cuts the cr@p out !

A very harsh indictment on what I meant as a reasonable, even handed post ! FWIW, I consider Nigel to be an honest, hard working individual and when he makes mistakes I'm sure that it is always with the best of intentions ! No doubt eventually the short term thickos will get their way and he'll be replaced by a mercenary 'big name' but will we be any better for it ? Personally I doubt it, but that's the way it goes in the sordid world of football as we know it !

Having just trawled through 210 posts it is easy to see why Nigel has an almost impossible task to please the masses ! Conflicting opinions all over the place - he was right on this, he was wrong on that ! The fact is that it is not an exact science - it is sport, it is unpredictable, it is volatile ! Had Puncheon's goal stood and we went 2 up, I reckon that we would have closed the game out, but it was not to be and after that Nigel had to make some tough decisions ! He did, was he right or was he wrong ?? We'll never know, but at least he tried his best !!

Brendan Cole : Dunno, just something about him strikes me as completely arrogant and up himself ! Like all the other posts on this thread, there is no logic and hopefully nobody actually takes it seriously ! FWIW, I've met Alan Titchmarsh and he was a lovely bloke but has already got a couple of mentions on here !!

Brendan Cole (dancer and prize ***t!)

The next time any Skate questions the fact that they were trading whilst insolvent, I think that we should refer them to these articles (by one of their own!) as he clearly asserts that there was intentional skullduggery and (alleged!) fraud !!

Sorry Mods, just seen that this was included on a previous thread, feel free to cut me off at the knees !!

I don't know why you continue to try and justify this comment as it is just plain wrong ! Personally I don't give a sh#t but you just won't give up, will you ??

Sorry to be pedantic but you really do seem to be misssing something : Home matches - 2/9, 22/9, 25/9 and 7/10 = 4 matches in 5 weeks NOT our ONLY match ! (Ps. I note that you conveniently changed your post from 'only home game' to 'only home league game', strikes me that you will do anything to suit your own agenda!)

Sheff Wed tomorrow night, Fulham a week on Sunday ! Not sure that it is a factor but best to get the facts right !!

Billy Sharp missed one last season !

It was pretty low at half time then an amazing high in the second half, so you don't even have to suffer game to game, it's all there in a single match !!

If we crack 30,000 for every home match then I consider that as a pretty respectable turnout ! Twelfth in the attendance league behind only the traditional top clubs is as good as we can expect ! I just wish we could get to twelfth in the actual league table sooner rather than later !!

eurosaint also at the match. I'm his daughter in SA trying to find out what's going on!

Ok thought I'd missed something! Only Prem match not being shown live on tv here so was hoping would get some decent updates on here!

Where's the match thread?

I doubt that any of our Premier League competitors would consider us to be either arrogant or sanctimonious ! Only the Skates believe this because, by your own admission, they are 'unimaginative' (thick!), 'underclass' (pikeys!), 'fan numbers not especially loyal' (the few!), 'evoke strong opinions' (cheating b#stards!) - TBF though, you can be quite noisy but the corrugated roofs may well be the cause of this !!

Is he related to David Nixon the magician ?? If so, this would explain a lot

Put me down for the Potless Supporters Trust

Glad you cleared that up, and there was me thinking that Andy Andronikou's granny may have been somehow involved with this company (now dissolved and never having shown any accounts, ever...?). There are fishy smells and fishy smells, but this one still smells fishy to me

For : "We have always stated that the only way forward for any club is to keep the stadium and the club under common ownership" ! Please read : "It's my f#cking stadium and I'm keeping it" !

With you all the way ! Pleased that I will be in the stadium and not here on the match day thread which is full of some incredibly fickle and negative prats !! COYS

I watched the programme and was also very impressed with Neville's articulate explanation of our defensive display v Arsenal ! His points were logical and valid but not actually that easy to correct ! Ie. if our shape was in completely in order, there is not much more you can do on the training ground to better it. It seems that the system is ok but that the quality of our players perhaps is not !! TBF, he also said that Arsenal were awesome on the day, so hopefully we won't get crucified in the same way by other (lesser?) teams !!

TBF Art, I think that the gap between the rich and poor has widened dramatically since we were last in the top league and these shock results are less and less prevalent ! We are in a league of about 12 and do need to perform in those matches ! I accept that Wigan was a big let down but hopefully we have learned from it and can find a way to win against this sort of opposition !
