Yep, luck was ridden for sure, and Cov are a decent side.

Lovely!! I half expected to win this today. It says a lot about the players and the manager that we graft to a win, away to the league leaders, in what was a must win game. I'm loving Matsuki and this keeper. COYR.

We'll agree to differ. An unproven kid is not the answer at this stage of such a vital game. I'd rather see some experience out there, even if his confidence is shot.

Stop moaning...when there's nobody else, there's nobody else.

Session

True, but they're just made up descriptions to make people sound impressive. Teams have been sitting deep, or parking the bus, for ages. A new phrase isn't needed.

He came off after half an hour last night, which I'd assume suggests an injury rather than being rested for today. Like you, I'd like to see him on the bench though, on the assumption that Edozie will be starting.

Justified

It's Friday, and Whelk needs a rest on Fridays. I'm standing in.

Correct, and nic isn't the only one obsessed with SoG. There are personal skirmishes all over the lounge which seems to dominate pretty much every thread, and follow from thread to thread. The forum is worse for it. Anyways, I'm off to call Ralph a cunt.

One of the few times you've been correct. Explanations above.

Yep. Park the bus. Loads of the new terms are changes for the sake of it. 'Double pivot' was a midfield 2 or pair once, we don't have sweepers anymore either as they've become a ball playing centre back, the midfield general is now a single pivot, a box to box midfielder is apparently a number 8 now, an attacking midfielder a number 10, etc. All nonsense to excite the kids.

Right wing loopy bloke says please play with me, by centrist normal bloke says 'Nah, you're stuck in your thoughts and never listen to reason so I can't be arsed and I'll go about my day'.

As I said, it was an odd post, but describing it as pony is a bit daft. 2 wrongs and all that.

The unwillingness in the gulf states, and Israel, to allow any honest reporting is telling.
