We are a reletively new PL team, and only spent a very short stint in the championship aswell. Despite the fact that we are obviously successful this reletively short period of time means that we probably were not able to shape the squad in the way that we wished. Now, it is unfortunate that we did not have an adequate reservist. Im sure KD will do a decent job but he just doesnt have the ability for an end of season run in. That said, im sure the club gambled on the reserve situation. It was an obvious dissapointment that Boruc had a tantrum but we are were we are in that situation. The gamble was to concentrate on first 11 playing staff, and one I agree with. For upward mobility the first 11 needed to be improved, this happened and allowed the former 1st team choices to drop to the bench, without which we wouldnt be able to be in the position we are. Despite being playing staff Id argue GKs have less injuries per player than any other position, due in the main to less explosive movement and less contact. So its a gamble that I agree with, it didnt pay off, so be it, but I cant blame the recruitment policy too much

The england mess wont be rectified until the new youngsters currently in the U16s etc start coming through. In the same way as an academy works Potentially he'll be approached then ?!

No chance, how many top level (I cringe when I said that about that cretin) managers at top clubs take International jobs ?

Facists

He wasnt as bad as many suggested but he, definately at the time, wasnt good enough for the upward momentum we were moving in. He has improved, but could we afforded to wait this long ? No, not IMO As for now, no, we are looking to turn ourselves into a perennial top 6/7 team (hopefully) and so we need better

Ive got no problem with going foreign, but I agree, pards is about the only option really. Pat of the problem with English football right now is the poor english managers on offer

Clyne, Coleman Walkers looking good again -
I said he may make a decent Championship player with the odd premiership game under his belt. He is quick and strong but technically still lacking. Looks like I didnt get it far wrong really

Ive never been told that they dont wamt my tea, ive been told I brew it a bit too long, and sometimes not long enough. Or maybe I spend too much time preparing the tea, but in general my tea goes down well I think. It gets a bit messier when you're making tea for more than one person, because you've got to figure out what everyone wants, but I just give them what I think they might like. Its even worse when someone videos you making the tea.. V embarrassing -

No it isnt, but our justice system happens to be the best in the world, is it infallible ? No, but considering your alternative seems to be to punish innocents to try and get a couple more of the guilty verdicts Id rather stick with what we have -
