  1. Yep. I’m not worried.
  2. It’s a football match, not a Boys Brigade concert.
  3. That’s true, but this has been a regular feature for several seasons.
  4. Do you think Puel would have got more? ‘Past performance is no indication of future performance’
  5. Drums do not make an atmosphere. They’re a bloody irritation and are feebly pathetic. Excitement on the pitch creates atmosphere.
  6. He’s in a different league!
  7. Came on at 90+2 minutes. You could be forgiven for missing him.
  8. What on Earth have the last 2 games got to do with Puel?
  9. 48 points??? The football was worse than boring.
  10. Targett is a shît Left Back.
  11. On 46 points with a goal difference of -7 The team in 13th position had 44 points. I don’t call that a good season.
  12. And Long. He slipped at least four times. Mind you, the opposition never seem to have any problems.
  13. They were worse than that. The swear filter won't let me say what I really think.
  14. Can I be greedy and ask for both?
  15. You can say that again.
  16. 3 in each of the last four league games. Did you forget Newcastle?
  17. 1. Appointing Pellegrino. 2. Nor sacking Pellegrino in November/December/January etc. 3. Not replacing Fonte/VVD with top-class defenders.
  18. Strange results happen over the last few games of the season. No, I can’t see it either. 3 o’clock kickoffs on a Saturday here we come
  19. Yep, I totally agree. (Except for Sims). At 2-1 take the steam out of the game. And what the f*** were they trying to do for Hazard’s goal. We had 8 players to their 4 and they still gave Hazard time and space to kill the ball and blast it into the net. That’s the trouble with trying to pack the box, the man-marking goes out of the window.
  20. It wasn’t his fault that our defence was sh!t.
  21. This complaining about where the kick was taken from is all very feeble though. They took the kick from where the offence (if any) actually occurred but not from where Mike Dean was pointing. We were naive and got caught out. Instead of the players complaining about the location they should have got back and defended. Does a few yards on the halfway line make any difference when the ball is played out to the wing?
  22. Chelsea wouldn’t have gone for Carrillo and Giroux wouldn’t have come to us. But it’s a depressing thought.
  23. Wembley Stadium turned out so expensive that the FA had to try to maximise revenue wherever possible., hence they want to use Wembley as much as possible. I agree with you, it's not the place for a semi final.
  24. He first needs to learn to start throwing his body in front of shots instead of turning away and waving his foot at them.
  25. Another sad loss. I read at the weekend that he had suffered a serious heart attack and was not surprised to see that he did not survive it. I take a personal interest in such things because I too was 61 when I suffered my heart attack which fortunately was only a modest one. Alan Ball died of a heart attack at the age of 61 too and Markus was only a few months older when he also suffered the same fate. Let's be thankful for what he was as a man as well as a footballer. My thoughts are with his family.
