you mean someone has actually told SDR he's sh*t ?

I've written it off anyway, Saturday is far more important. As long as we can get AL a bit of a run-out at Old Trafford and have him fit for Saturday that's OK, no other injuries either. Still I guess the players and management won't see it that way. They'll want to win, but we probably won't. I noticed on the Poll on the OS only about 30% see us losing.

I would dare to predict that should De Ridder actually start this game he will get sent off before half-time. Our LMF player needs to defend, De Ridder can't do that. In fact I'd rather have anyone from the first team group than De Ridder.

Unless of course Forren can actually play efficiently at LB and it's not something someone made up.

You never know what a bit of better coaching might do for them. Or a different game plan. We'll just have to wait and see. Didn't someone somewhere say something about our coaching being "stale".

who is no doubt a better keeper than Given these days. Don't know why people want old hacks all of the time. If Given was any good he'd be playing at Villa cos Guzan isn't very good.

Perhaps MP is going to play his game and doesn't care what the opposition supposedly don't know about (although they always do).

Luke, Fox at LB.

what another spectacular Jonno quick signing.

could be back by Saturday I suppose; Might need some better coaching to be really worth what we paid for him; Saw him playing for Zambia the other day, looked totally lost, willing runner but didn't seem to know what he was doing (or supposed to be doing) half of the time. Raw talent, needs refining.

in fact only losing 3-1 probably wasn't bad at all

no Morgan= big problem, no Morgan + no Cork = end of the world.

Don't really see what we need anyway. Everything is covered and there has to be a pathway for the young talent...apparently. Don't think NA paid anywhere near enough attention to that point.

couldn't play modern " right way" football on that pitch though.

What about this bloke Firmino, is he any good ?

what do you expect for 800K ? 800K is bottom end NPC standard at best, there are very few bargains about when you're talking top class footballers. If you want real quality for not much you have to go rummaging around in youth teams for it and take a chance whether you'll get any end product or not.

look on the bright side, he was with the RCS for 13 years

got a good start but then Djokovic turned up the wick and crushed him. Murray slowed down a lot, result of his foot problem perhaps.

forgot all about that game, getting something is important of course, in fact survival might be easier than I thought. Would definitely put that down as at least a banker draw.If we can win there it will put them in the utmost difficulty.

38 should dso it I think; 15 more from 15 then. 4 wins,3 draws but I'd hope for better Banker Win list. Stoke,West Ham, QPR home Sunderland away (cos I want us to get even) Banker Draw list Newcastle,Reading away West Brom home. there are other games we should get something from though. Liverpool at home, Spurs away

Redbridge Community School ?

told you, a lot of it is commercial houses league standard. There are some good players in most of the teams but there are some god-awful ones as well. Mali for instance, one of their players has p*ssed off back to Corsica because he thought he should be playing more, won't get a game at Bastia either but hey he's a star right. Used to like the CAN when you had god teams like Cameroun and the old Nigerian sides but since Eurpean nations have filched all their best players it's nowhere near the old standard. Played too often as well.

they went on one of those not long back, can't remember what the following games were like though.

I think he's actually signed for Reading pre ACON.

Well after watching that first half I now know what Stoke Reserves against West Ham Reserves would look like.
