  1. A bang average line-up. No reason not to win this.
  2. Did it switch to Mosin too?
  3. But he’s also shown that he can put in dominant performances against the top opposition i.e. in the CL which, by necessity, he never did with us. That’s why there will also be limits to how much we can sell players for or question marks over their ability.
  4. Agree. City represents the extreme and shady end of these trends (anyone who claims otherwise is frankly clueless). The irony, however, is that precisely because City are such an artificial club, I feel more indifferent towards their success. And having already won the league recently, the novelty factor has worn off. The same can’t be said about Liverpool who’ve wallowed in their own mystique and narcissism for decades -denying their supporters -and their most evangelical supporters still tend to be local- of what they believe is their destiny would frankly be a massive f**king laugh.
  5. The one who’s less popular than marmite?
  6. Christ the kippers certainly get touchy about their hero.
  7. Good lad.
  8. Triggered Very pleased to have taught you that word pal.
  9. You mean playing him in a more central position as Ralph has been doing? Spot on
  10. Busy gluing back the doors on all the advent calendars he’s prematurely opened? That or we happen to be winning.
  11. Maybe he can go on and have an Andrew Surman-type career somewhere else.
  12. And two of our three goals were absolute gifts. We played well in spells but there’s still plenty to work on. Wham will be a much more instructive test of where we are.
  13. JRM has got no chance. A mediocre fund manager who spent his career playing politics and once in politics never held a serious government post. He failed in his bid to chair the Treasury Select Committee and has made blunder after blunder leading the fringe ERG. There’s probably a cameo role in a as yet unspecified Wes Anderson movie and bumpkins like Les and LD will always swoon over a patrician drawl (however contrived and confected); but frankly I could make a better case for the virtues of root canal without anaesthesia than JRM becoming an elder statesman.
  14. Why was he like any other politician? For starters, he had a pretty distinguished career before going into politics. In other words, you’re talking pony as usual pal.
  15. You mean players like Danny Fox and Jos Hooiveld? Of course not
  16. Supposedly some Huddersfield fans were throwing things after Armstrong was fouled and then stamped on.
  17. Lemina can easily play further up the pitch as he showed today as well as carry the ball from deeper positions. Been calling for Romeu-Hoj-Lemina for ages. Hopefully that’s the case after Hoj returns from suspension.
  18. Heard you cleaned up with your Saints Leicester double too pal.
  19. Disagree. It’s a combination of both pal. Management and recruitment have both been poor.
  20. The usual suspects on the wrong side of history again.
  21. Take a bow Ralph.
  22. Brave sub.
  23. Keepers got to save that.
  24. Jealous again?
