revolution saint

TBH I don't follow him so unless he pops up in the news then I don't have much of an idea what he's doing. Seems quite childish but then from what I can tell, he is quite childish.

Sounds like a desperate troll and an attempt to get some attention. I mean, is he seriously suggesting America should "liberate" us? Poor effort, could do better.

It changes but at the moment I'm leaning towards "Here's where the story ends" by The Sundays.

Glad the forum is back, I had no idea what to think.

Any truth to the rumour that Dragan started the "We want our money back" chant?

Need to trim the squad dramatically before even thinking of bringing anyone else in. It's a bloated mess right now, can't be good for anyone and must make things harder for the manager.

Come on Turks, give the guy a break. He plays computer games about football and knows far more than the rest of us.

I like the bit at 5.05 in this clip when George says, "Fuck me".

Yeah, you’re all about nuance. I mean hoping the perps family drink acid? FFS grow up

Where do we reckon RM will end up? I'm going for Norwich, or possibly Peterborough.

Didn't Martin pronounce that the club was committed to a possession based system regardless of who was manager? Seem to recall him saying something along those lines. Anyway, seems like he was wrong about that too. Hopefully this fella is clever enough to realise he won't be able to implement massive changes overnight and it'll be more about getting the best out of what he's got to work with. TBH I've had enough of philosophies and just want someone who will be a bit pragmatic and not a slave to ideology. Anyway, good luck to the fella. I'm doubtful he'll be able to keep us up but then I'm doubtful anyone could keep us up so no slight on him. The six months is a good thing too.

I'd be worried about the initial teething problems.

I just think it's worth bearing in mind when people bang on about too much red tape, inefficient public sector etc etc that the private sector is often worse and the difference is they make a profit out of it. Anyway, wrong thread for this but to bring it back on topic: People who use hashtags outside of Twitter/X 😉

Yep, same here. The glorious private sector eh?

I'm not even sure I can be bothered to learn the new managers name although I suppose if Rohl gets it then no learning required. Has to go down as one of the most uninspiring searches for a manager we've ever had - no manager worth their salt would probably want to come, and even if they did I don't think anyone could do much with this squad. And if that wasn't bad enough, I've got no confidence in Sports Republic actually picking the best man anyway. Merry fucking Christmas everyone.

I'm sure it's been said before but on a related note, any poll or stat based solely on the premier league. Why not do top flight football and include everyone? And on an unrelated note, really bright LED headlights. Fucking dangerous.

Top half finish and Europa league spot should be the aim. I'd probably accept that.

Are you going to the game, or looking forward to watching it on TV? Big difference

I've got a ticket but not going on Sunday but do have a valid excuse - the football is shit and I can't be arsed.

I haven't looked at the whole of this thread so I have no idea what questions you asked or why you've directed them to me. I saw your quote and wondered where you got it from, that's all. You sound a bit fucking mental though so I'll pass on a discussion if that's OK?

Care to share where you got that from?

TBH I can see why our goal against Wolves was disallowed. Harsh? Maybe, maybe not. If you're clinging to that then good luck but after 11 games, rock bottom of the league and deservedly so isn't just bad luck. I'd rather point to the areas we can control and bad luck is a card any team at the bottom can play, it only serves to deflect from the real failings. Personally I don't think either the manager or squad is good enough and I don't have any confidence that sacking Martin will result in a better manager capable of getting us out of the bottom three.

If he goes to Coventry then I'm never speaking to him again.

Table doesn't lie. We've played 11 games (7 of those against teams also in the bottom half, 4 of which were at home). You can argue that the squad isn't good enough, the manager isn't good enough, or both. We're not down at the bottom because of bad luck though. 19 shots at Newcastle and no goals - that's bad finishing, not luck. Three diabolical decisions against Wolves - that's wishful thinking. How about 70 odd percent possession and no shots on target? That last one is pretty damning and blaming bad luck or bad decisions is deflecting from an insipid, lacklustre and toothless performance.

Something to do with the bush gore election if I recall. Up till then I don’t think they were standardised
