So if AA isn't the answer, and you'd prefer a big man up top, why keep AA? He's hardly a directive replacement if Stewart is out.

If you agree that we're better with a big man up top, how does thay make AA the answer if we don't have a big man up top?

I'm not sure anyone would suggest that Larin, Stewart, and a kid are the way to go for the rest of the season. Archer goes regardless, but I'm not sure I'd keep AA purely as wing cover. Perhaps we'll see Edozie again...

I take your point, but, it ignores that we're better off playing a 4231, and with a big man up top. Assuming you agree, where does AA it into that? Ditto Archer? AA up top would mean changing how we play, or using him as wing cover. Archer would continue to be Archer. The positive about this move is it shows a commitment to playing a new way.

Indeed. You can guarantee that people will mourn Archer like a lost Grandma, despite having moaned non stop about him since he arrived. Yesterday confirmed that we're better with a bit more size up front. Whilst we can surely do better than this bloke, I'd rather roll the dice on him than persist with Archer or bringing back Downs.

Sadly accurate.

We'll limp to a mid table finish whatever we do. But yeah, it looks a particularly crap bit of business all round.

No outcry, and a sorry attempt at deflection. Saying that people "love seeing kids raped by foreigners" and that "I hate people like you who...fiddle with kids" was as bad as anything I've seen posted on here. As I said yesterday, you're a disgrace, and I'd have booted you off for that. If you somehow avoided that, I'd have booted you for being an antagonist troll. You're lucky that the mods are as generous as Thailand's immigration policies.

Ditto. My daughter grew up while away at uni. She graduated with a lesser degree than her ability, which she hasn't used, plus a shit load of debt, but she had 3 wonderful years that will serve her well. That said, I know lots of people have done incredibly well by taking alternative routes to a decent job or profession, and offer at least as much as graduates. A degree is far from necessary to succeed.

No suggestion that that the 8 Palestinians seen took any action, just that they were seen somewhere that Israel has occupied. 31 now dead as a result. That's well over 500 killed and 1500 injured following the "ceasefire", since when there have been over 1300 ceasefire violations by the Israeli military.

Mate, you're as tedious on the main board as you are in the lounge. I've said that I'd like to see us play 4231 but we didn't have the players. I said when Brew came back that he gave us that option. Just watch the game rather than focusing on me. Fecking idiot.

Nice. Play off charge incoming...

Let's see if we have a plan b to deal with their plan b.

This has been done to death mate. Until Bree returned we didn't have a RB good enough. We have now. I wouldn't have played a back 4 with what we had. I would now.

Playing a proper number 9 makes all the difference. Let's see how we do 2nd half - fitness still concerns me.

As I said, we couldn't play a back 4 with the defenders we had. We've now got a proper RB, and aren't playing Manning. No gotcha there pal.

Agreed, but moderation is needed imo when lines are crossed.

I'm not someone to call for red cards, but if it were down to me, I'd turf him out for this: "That is why you and many others on here support immigration as you love seeing kids raped by foreigners. I hate labour as I hate people like you who support pedos and fiddle with kids". Disgraceful human being.

Nuts. I'm not sure the penny will drop that the issue can't be the coaches. Talented lass, but doesn't seem particularly sensible.

All fair points. It unusual that I bother, but it was that kind of morning.

That's a different way of saying that you think that people who disagree with you are wrong, so you feel the need to have rude tantrums in the erroneous belief that it gets your point across so that others consider it. I'm not discussing past presidents and past policies. It's done. What's relevant is what's happening now in the world. Pretti was unnecessarily shot, despite not being the angel we had been led to believe. Anyone who does not unequivocally agree with that needs to realign their moral compass.

We're back to doing it like that are we. I didn't dare to suggest that you don't like her because she opposed the killing of innocent Yemenis and Palestinians, but it was pretty obvious. Yes, I support politicians who oppose the oppression and killing of innocent Palestinians. Anyways, sex toys ain't cheap, so good on her for improvising.

Your posting style is what's unhinged - always full of opinion stated as fact, aggression, and criticism of posters. It's tiresome. On the actual issue, yes, I've seen the video. It changes nothing - he was still disarmed, and grounded, when he was unnecessarily shot.

A critic of a hard brexit, opposed Saudi Arabia smashing up Yemen, wants sanctions against Oligarchs, wants a permanent ceasefire in Gaza, supports a Palestinian state...care to clarify your issue with her?
