Actually, the fact it appears they used the full length of the runway, attempting to take off at the last possible moment (hence the plume of dust that can be seen) is equally odd. Too heavy maybe?

Yeah, fair point. Contrary to what I saw earlier, it turns out they used the entire runway anyway...

If flightradar is anything to go by, it looks like they started the spool up about a third of the way down the runway rather than taxiing to the far end of the runway. Therefore, it wouldn't surprise me if they underestimated the length of runway required, which would be based on the weight of the aircraft, amongst other factors.

Someone give Farmer the 'told you do' medal he craves, FFS. 😉

House!

Reminds me of one of my favourite places in Australia...

Indeed. A club of our stature in the championship ought to be predominantly focusing on players with both attributes.

Imbecile (No offence)

People who get annoyed by people that call ketchup red sauce

Source?

This. You'd have to be an imbecile to put red sauce in a bacon (or sausage) sandwich. Mental.

What's worse... People "obsessing" about Martin or people obsessing about people obsessing about Martin...?

I think we're talking about different Jacks...

Does this mean Cap'n Jack is staying put...?

Call me old fashioned, but I'd rather have both...

Hmm... Super Computer versus the footballing genius of Sidney Fudpucker.... Too close to call...

I thought it had been turned into a monkey chicken petting zoo, but could be my memory playing tricks on me...

Can't think where I've seen that type of kamikaze defending before.... Seems so familiar somehow... Sure it'll come to me shortly...

Will a couple of low-res video screen shots suffice?

Agree that Martin should only take partial blame for the recruitment side of things but the one significant thing that you missed out, for which Martin shoulders full blame for, is sticking with a playing philosophy that was never going to work (in the Premier League) with such a mediocre squad. Not getting good enough players through the door is one thing, but then expecting them to play in a way that they weren't capable of (in the Premier League), and persisting with it regardless, was an even bigger faux pas, in my humble opinion. And before the "but we would've got relegated regardless of what playing style we deployed" brigade get triggered, yes, I agree, but the difference is that we could've gone down fighting and less embarrassingly, if we'd played more like Luton than Man City, which would've been much easier to stomach than the shit show Martin presided over.
