Grand Old Team will be a laugh tonight.

We won a game!!!!

Unbeaten in 2.

Bet Pep doesn't praise Bmuff or their manager.

Hope they don't get a corner.

You don't need to be fit to play walking football - that's why it was introduced.

Another Russ masterclass of brave possession football that entertains and impresses nobody.

Were you expecting Russ to preside over something different?

I also think they'll win the physical battles because they are quite a big side in comparison to us. If we play the usual, slow turgid stuff and keep recycling the ball just to maintain possession it could be a tough afternoon - we'll need to get at them and move the ball vertically and quickly rather than horizontally and slowly.

Good luck with that 🙂

Don't know but if you fancy playing presser bingo these are the things I expect to hear; We've had a good week and the boys have worked incredibly hard We'll try to be the team that we want to be We're going to be brave We should have more points than we have I'm proud of the way the boys are sticking to the program We won't change the way we play I don't take any notice of the noise - the owners are backing me and that's all that matters

He won't get a much bigger gig. His stock is declining week by week and will continue to do so. He's just showing himself to be well out of his depth at this level.

Unfortunately for us, Semmens fell for the spiel of the snake oil salesman who writes the bullshit books and considers himself some kind of life coach.

Martin Semmens sold the club down the river because he handled the sale.

It's a longer way of stating they don't have a clue what they're doing.

I think you'll be in for a nasty surprise.

A high bar to be fair.

Maresca got Leicester promoted as Champions whereas RM is potentially going to preside over a relegated side with the lowest ever points total. If this happens no club bigger than us would entertain the idea of appointing him as their manager - can you imagine the uproar from their fans?

Anyone who thinks a bigger club than us will want his services is deluded.

Yeah, wonder when the penny will finally drop for RM.

Maybe try something a bit radical - ditch the slow, ponderous walking football and get up the field as fast as possible with fewer pointless sideways and backwards passes - seen us play very well many times doing this and I'd bet any money we'll look better and stand more chance of winning this game and a few others. Try it Russ, you might like it.

Yes and no.

Russell did promise fun 🙂

What a novel idea - it'll never catch on with SR though.

Pep is already putting into practice things he learned from Russell.
