  1. because Leicester are doing really well aren't they. Isn't he about to be sacked ?
  2. Probably just a ruse implemented by the Chinese to get the US to reveal some more of their "Zone 51" weaponry. There's probably a microwave transmitter satellite that intrigues them. Never mind I'll just put the tin foil hat back on.
  3. you can't really say he didn't deserve to be sacked unless you know exactly why he was sacked. I'd have sacked him after the Sunderland home game and I think he was on borrowed time since then anyway.
  4. Must be watching Boruc and saying to himself, he's not at all dusty, wish I'd played him.
  5. don't know, probably something by Dolly Parton or Emmy-Lou Harris.
  6. Parking the bus would be suicidal for them,we could not possibly have the 21 or so goal attempts that we had against QPR again and not score more than 1 goal. I hope that MP keeps faith in the same side as for Chelsea game and does not revert to starting Lallana because for me JRod has become our most potent striker.
  7. Pangloss's misfortune derives from his lessons of "experimental physics" given to Paquette but that's neither here nor there. Voltaire (or Dr Ralph) tries to show that permanent optimism (original title of the work is Candide or Optimism) does not equip you well for life (or at least I think it does).
  8. To me Adkins seemed to talk down to the run of the mill supporter, then I gave up with his banalities and clichés so I couldn't say if it got better or worse .
  9. All this poll showed is that many did not and probably still do not realise just how good some of the players in our squad really are. Class is permanent. They stepped up from the drudgery of League 1 to provide a brilliant start to our campaign in the NPC. Then the manager tinkered too much and would not change the weakest link so the start to our PL campaign was dreadful. Since that has been corrected we look like a decent side. Lambert,Schneiderlin,Fonte,Lallana and Davis I suppose were here before NA and they're still here after he's gone.
  10. hits himself over the head with it does he !
  11. well that will pass completely over the head of your average Reading fan then. As will his Liebnizian philosophy in general.
  12. Dr Pangloss was a pronouncer of positivity in all things, didn't he finish up a syphilitic beggar ?
  13. Print aap3 and the club badge on that red dress and it could catch on amongst our lady supporters.
  14. Perhaps we had a player who Cortese wanted to keep but wouldn't stay past the end of January with NA in charge. Just a wild speculation you understand, not a known scenario. However 1 of our players was watched by a top top club at least 3 times in late December/January plus of course in our game against them which also fell into that period..
  15. why, is he afraid they'll run off with it and sell it on E-Bay ?
  16. well Punch definitely signed for another 3 years or so but I don't know about the 5 year plan. Probably correct though because all the recently extended players are quoted about club ambition.
  17. but wasn't it also said that no promoted team having lost their first 4 games had ever survived or something similar?
  18. If we can go 1 up in the first 10 minutes or so they will cave in because they'll know that they're relegated (if they don't already). The longer it goes at 0-0 the more difficult it will become for us.
  19. Jay's incessant running at defences and his willingness to work back and defend since MP has given him his real chance will not have escaped notice. A really changed player of late, he likes to run at defences and he looks as if he's got a bit of a brain so MP's approach seems to suit him well.
  20. Other than Joe Allen I expect he meant then. On that subject a classic case of contracts meaning diddly squat, Allen signed until 2015 with Swansea last seasn but was off like a bolt of lightning when a "big club" and his ex-manager came calling. Football is a game where statements about loyalty and not doing something mean very little.
  21. expect they can if they sell Carroll to West Ham, might get 8 million or so. If not there's always a loan from the BVI against 2019's PL receipts.
  22. right didn't know that the nominations were known already, probably because I read threads from last to first and don't always get to the bottom before posting, must cut that out.
  23. reckon Martinez might get it.
  24. They're all being tracked, probably a bit less now that we're not very likey to get relegated. We shoud have a big clubs chief scouts picture gallery on this board, then when you see them at SMS and elsewhere you'll know someone is being "watched". I'll start you off Seen at a fair few of our games this season apparently, saw him myself at the Everton home game
