Didn't he write it on his vest at half time? The fact it was scribbled in such broken English was hilarious.

Yeah working it out its actually 36 yards so further than I thought. No problem.

He's shit, no other reason needed for me to not like the guy. I agree with your last sentence though, he is incredibly boring. Edit: To clarify, I wasn't "going after" him because he celebrated with the away fans, I mentioned that it's embarrassing that he goes to the fans after every single win and does the same "yes! yes! yes!" hand wavy/cheer thing, especially as he scarpers like road runner when we lose. I thought it was small-time when Ralph did it as well, but he didn't do it every single time.

So not scoring enough and conceding too many, other than that we're doing all the right things.

The whole conference is so fucking defensive, almost all about himself. Doing my head in.

"We go 2-1 down and when they put 10 men behind the ball, it is very difficult. Simply have to stop putting ourselves in that situation" Oh, it's that simple is it? How about you have a plan for when we inevitably go a goal down.

Found it! 4 minutes in, sound is a little off. As I said, 30 yards Whole thing is worth a watch just for the nostalgia. https://youtu.be/_G75gYBaMnM?si=8OyS_xEm5_bAaUyK

Patience, everyone.

Sounds like a roundabout way of saying "scar tissue" to me. Doesn't really explain why Leicester are running away with the league, though.

It was only about 30 yards out and he volleyed it from a keepers head out, the keeper left himself on the edge of the box so it was an empty net. An epic goal, but not quite the worldy you seem to be remembering. There used to be a video on YouTube set to "Roc ya body, mic check 1-2" that had it on, it was basically like a compilation of that championship season. Ended up with Burley coming in set to "The Key the Secret" 😂 worked out well. Anyway, can't find that video anymore. Did find Javis old YouTube channel (remember him!?) though which has the classic "saint until u die" on it (original Saints song over footage of the 2003 FA cup run) as well as few other Idiakez themed videos and bizarrely a video of Mario Licka scoring a penalty for Caen. https://youtu.be/xmb4xfZEDO0?si=MtEvQfiUHpfwY_pd

This sounds good until you realise there are 9 teams this season with 20 or more points and the top two both have more than 30. We're not competing with last season's teams, we're competing with this season's who are clearly at a higher level.

The style of play doesn't suit our strikers or, to be honest, any strikers really. It doesn't allow them to be dynamic and make runs because the players are told not to try risky through balls or balls over the top. A player like Mara is going to struggle as he is a player that needs to be running with the ball and getting on the end of passes, not receiving the ball with his back to goal and trying to lay it off before repeating it again 10 yards forward until we NFL style move up the pitch a little bit at a time. He's especially going to struggle with only being given short cameos to do anything in. The guy has had a grand total of 226 minutes on the pitch with 72 of those coming V Sunderland when the whole team was a disaster.

I enjoyed it, and was disappointed to see that it actually went in off Evans with little or no touch from Bazunu because how often is he going to get the chance to experience that.

One thing that is for certain is that we cannot start selling people in January if we are serious about getting promoted.

Yep, the mark of a truly great keeper is whether or not he can nearly get his head on a last minute corner that then goes in via own goal. Consider me proven wrong.

As far away from our goal as possible it seems.

Annoyingly it won't even go down as his goal as it goes in off the defender. Would have been amazing.

Leeds losing as well. Could have gone 3rd.

So inconsistent. Never gonna go up playing this way.

Ched Evans was innocent boys, careful labelling him as anything he isn't.

I don't think you can ever not give handball when a player is stood on the goal line.

Ref doesn't know the rules, sending Che off for receiving treatment when the offending player was booked.

Was actually handball on the line, very lucky there.

I hope this is tongue in cheek.

Great finish.
