KD, Hoiveld, (with Yoshida alongside him) , No JC/Morgan, & Guly starting suggests otherwise.

The best management try and win trophies. I think I'll sleep on it before making any judgement over this: ...but I know how you're feeling.

I was at both. F'king glad I saved the travel cost today. Not sure my heart will take the excitement of whether we finish 7th,8th,or 9th, so might have to stay away from remaining fixtures. The glory of watching the season peter out is too much.

Get knocked out early on, I think we have seen in the League Cup that the manager is capable of selecting his "best team" to lose. Perhaps if we are in danger of a Europa League place by our league results he'll start throwing matches to avoid it. I really thought MP might see this as a chance of 'real' success, not a bit of 'window dressing' by finishing 7-8th etc. Disappointed in him. I could understand it if we were in the bottom five or so, but Christ on a bike !!!

Don't bother coming here mate, you'll only look to be an also ran , finishing 7th or 8th, and never win a cup.

Lost, or just surrendered, before kick off in my view.

Well ? Tell me, with or without an interpreter.

Agree. And any defence containing both Jos & Yoshida is going to be vulnerable.

Boluc should be on the bench at the very least. Imagine having to play Gazzaniga for 89 minutes if KD was clattered.

Hope both performance and result justify this selection. But initial view is that this is an inexcusably poor team given our league postion etc.

RIDICULOUS.

But I'm a little less confident with our predicted line up if it includes KD & Hooiveld.

Possibly an interesting option.

What does Turdishley do at Fulham exactly ?

Never saw him play, well before even my time, but I recall how older relatives spoke of him and the respect and admiration they held for him. Have seen him interviewed a few times, always seemed one of the true Gentlemen of the game (from a bygone age). RIP.

Shame about Fulham, but Meulensteen yet again proves the Gray -Wigley theory that good assistants don't make even average managers. Magath has the chance to disprove the 'Lowe rule of relativity' ie Dickheaded chairmen who appoint three managers in a season go down the sh!t shoot. This comes as no surprise though, other than I had expected Creep Curbishley to take the job. He obviously thinks they've gone as well and doesn't want this relegation on his cv. Probably take over in the summer. Hope Magath pulls it off, but unlikely.

I remember a Viz cartoon of Roger Mellie where he introduced a tv programme with " welcome to Windsor, behind us is a f*cking great tw^tter of a castle .." Does that count ?

Googled him yesterday, and there was a link to a story that Monaco were looking to offload him last window to an Italian club.

But the Combination was regional, and would include say, Oxford, Northampton and anyone in the south who wanted to field a second team.

Good spot.

Good one. Shame its a bit of a slow crap tune to get going though.

We've been crying out for a haircut like that in our team for ages.

..OH WHAT FUN WE HAD...

Actually that clip should be compulsory watching at SFC by both MP & KL. They are bound to conclude how good the River Plate sash looks, and they even feature in red and white stripes as well. Back on the player though, aren't Monaco a mega-funded club. No need to sell for stupid money. Unless of course Dalian Wanda is bankrolling it personally...

Don't they all ? And is it compulsory to play such sh!t music with a clip ? Anyone ever measured the correlation with the skill factor:sh!t music, is it crappier the track better the player ? It has to be that way because you would not remain watching a poor player with that sound in the background.
