  1. Why should you not expect them to be suspended. Any player on 4 cards and a sort of "local derby" is a prime candidate for a card and thus a suspension. In my view we don't get enough cards, not that we should actively seek them out but we seem to do too much to avoid them. Don't like that.
  2. How do you know we looked at Biyik ? Not that he's good enough for the PL mind you.
  3. Something I thought i'd just mention here. Yesterday on my TV view Adkins seemed to be taking advice from Wilkins a few times. I don't like that because I think Wilkins is the epitomy of uselessness. Adkins should rely on his own judgement.
  4. Indeed they are, still sort of convinced we should have persisted with Boruc myself but whether that would have made any much difference I just could not say. Many among us like to point out jus how well Swansea and Norwich did last season but both of those managers made sure that they had a decent keeper, Norwich already had the excellent Ruddy and Swansea got Vorm. Idem West Ham this season.
  5. Nothing, same as always.Then again we don't have much family and the kids are far away and almost always broke. We just buy whatever we need whenever we want and leave it at that, like my new DS4 that I'll be getting next week..
  6. TBH the recruitment leaves much to be desired although I think the only blame that can be apportioned to Adkins over that is failure to impose himself over people who seem to know decidedly little about football.
  7. Davis didn't spill it, he just failed to cut out an easy (looking) cross because he didn't read the trajectory correctly and was short. This is his problem, reading ball trajectories and velocities. He's probably so used to the old balls that no matter how he tries he can't get to grips with these new types.He just got a hand sort of half on it but not enough to cut it out or turn it away. Gazza might have got there, him being bigger and quicker to drop down, he'd have probably have f*cked up on something else though.
  8. leave a place for Ryan Dickson though, he's quality or so I'm told anyway.
  9. But playing well with the odd clanger per match is not acceptable. We are in the best league in the world with many of the worlds best players. If you palm a ball out in front of Berbatov or Van Persie they're going to put it into the net instinctively Those guys are on what 100/150K a week, they don't get that for missing keeper's gifts. At least make them work for their money.
  10. But you will, Gazza has been consigned to the sin bin and Boruc won't play unless we're desperate. Davis will be in goal on Saturday, Kenwyne Jones will bundle into him after about 2 minutes and then he'll be like a 5 year old girl dropping shots everywhere.
  11. just 10 ? 17 at least, fill the bench with them as well.
  12. Guly 5 votes for what 4 minutes on the pitch. If he played 90 he'd be MOTM every week. The number voting for Cork surprises me, industrious but not much end product,few interceptions and even less tackles. Still people used to tell me Brian Howard, Brian Stock and err Ryan whatis name from Plymouth were the bees bollix.
  13. I looked at the FA disciplinary lists.Shawcross and Cameron were on the 4 card list but obviously the FA hadn't had yesterday's match report by then,so in theory they're both on 5 and out on Saturday
  14. Always looks short of stamina to me, even when he was a regular at the Arse he was puffing like an old locomotive after 60 minutes.
  15. transfermarkt says until June, they're rarely wrong. Whoscored and Transfermarkt, references for being correct virtually all of the time.
  16. no thanks, let Reading have him where he'll be with other Russians.
  17. Hit hard, rising, unless Schwarzer got something on top of the ball it would probably go in somehow. These balls are light and easily deflected, take a lot of stopping though when hit that hard from close range. With the old balls keepers used to catch them most of the time, with these new ones keepers tend to punch them sideways whenever in doubt. Saw Mignolet doing it all the time, never in front, always to the side.
  18. some little typos probably due to high C2H5OH levels.
  19. wooooooh ooooh wooooooh oooh woooooh oooh. Sound the sirens, run for the shelters..
  20. Cameron as well I think, that should shake them up a bit, up to us to get at them early in case they have adjustment problems.
  21. no,no,no and no. Yoshida doesn't struggle in the air and Jos isn't premier league standard on what we've seen so far. Yoshida was amongst our best players yesterday.
  22. probably just a few isolated realists who don't live in the past, the rest of the realists just don't turn up any more.
  23. Can they afford him ?
  24. yes seems that way
  25. Boruc is probably on very little money (relatively) and is happy enough to train with our group and be in a better condition to get himself a good contract in January.
