  1. Not enough. Although the original debt has recently been paid off. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/c9w8xzvxz1lo
  2. It’s not FA greed. They need the money to pay for its construction.
  3. If we sit back and try to defend eventually we crack. Constantly trying to keep the ball out of our net causes mental and physical tiredness.
  4. Yes indeed. And no need for any solar panels!
  5. He’s injury prone.
  6. Indeed. Look through the other end.
  7. Not just THB at fault but the central three were all standing around holding hands. What happened to Bednarek when he got elbowed on the side of his head? It looked nasty to me. I saw his head jerk back suddenly yet no sanctions were taken against their player. The Sulemana incident wasn’t a penalty I’m afraid.
  8. Out of more than 36,000
  9. If it helps, the question is ambiguous.
  10. We’ve already had too many greatest tits in charge of our club.
  11. I don’t agree. It was all last-ditch stuff which was only ever going to end one way, which it did. Constantly being on the defence tires the players out mentally as well as physically and eventually they make mistakes. Emile Smith Rowe ran into the same gap in our defence that Ollie Watkins found for Villa. If you watch the goal again you will see that we have at least four defenders there who could have tracked his run yet they all leave it to each other. Bednarek realises too late and dives in only to deflect the ball into goal. It’s a classic case of ‘too many cooks’ getting in each other’s way. Five at the back is an abomination.
  12. He was up front on his own. That’s a lot to ask of anybody yet alone a player making a rare start.
  13. Where do I apply? As an asylum seeker, not a landlord.
  14. That’s not the point. We’re going to lose more heavily by packing the box and not attacking that we are by playing more upfield.
  15. I wasn’t there. But 14 minutes out of 17 games doesn’t seem a lot.
  16. There’s a quote from Marco Silva about yesterday, "From the first minute until the last, the reality is that we are the only team that tries to score goals or try to play in an offensive way,"
  17. Not a decade. But certainly this season.
  18. He was a long way away from doing that.
  19. That’s when he gets sacked.
  20. No we are not. There are tactics and formations that we have not used. Things like a back four and going on the attack.
  21. But no team has ever been champions before. You forget just how significant n achievement this is. Hint: it isn't
  22. Some people here are making excuse for him on account of his age. In which case don't throw him on for the last few minutes when you're trying to hang on to a point or three.
  23. We're shit at home because we are set uyp to play that way. Five at the back! At home!
