That unfit ?!? Christ, I have pops at some of the players I play with for not being fit enough and thats a decent saturday league level, way I see it there is no excuse to not be fit. What makes it even worse is you are talking about professional football. How do you expect to get anywhere half fit ?

Very much this TBH Jesus its embarrassing frankly

Not sure Glasgow gets this football lark to be honest, you're better asking him about fishing

Its not

I said this ages ago, reckon he has top level CB written all over the lad

TBH I dont know nor really care ATM If Im honest I just want to get the next 4-5 months over and done with so I can work out just in what direction we are going as a club as right now we are seemingly rudderless

Well, yes, osvaldo was a tit But Lambert has been pretty ineffective to anyone who can actually understand a football match regardless of what he has done in the past.

Whilst I dont think Jay Rod can play up top in this system I just cant get over the idiocy in this post TBH

Harsh to judge the lad on the end of todays performance. Especially considering Lambert has offered us very little either (puts things into perspective) We just dont have options in this area

My original rivalry was with WillFoxGolf, it all escalated one crazy night in 2010, mr Fox hasnt been seen again since so take that as a warning to all you wannabe's Special mention to MattLeTiss (the poster not the man) he tries hard despite his limited resources. Love you glasgow

He isnt but he has been poor this year

He is an idiot

Who else is there ?

Cleverley simply hasnt progressed, in fact he has regressed Id of said, he has ability but clearly no idea how to use it. Townsend isnt as bad as some make out, he is direct and does cause problems, has a bit to prove between now and Brazil though

Despite the circumstances he did play him further forward, Id of said AVB had a big influence too

Ageing Defence and Midfield, Moyes sacking his entire backroom staff and thus killing his integration. Realistically I think they would take Morgan and perhaps Lallana though in reality Mata plugged that gap for them. They still need a couple of defensive midfielders, despite Cork impressing I dont think he is Utd quality. A lot will depend on Moyes next few transfers.

Thats not for me to say, its always going to be difficult which is why it needs to be a strong case to get to court and then stronger to actually win Needless to say, most footballers accept that there is a risk when you take the field, there is no issue with that. Its when certain players go over the top, it happens. Some do it intentionally, some just lose there heads. Regardless completely reckless challenges have no place on any football field

Disagree, I have seen plenty of challenges certainly on a sat/sunday morning that could easily be classed as assault. It wouldnt take the art out of the tackle anyway but of course as a player you have a responsibility not to knowingly go out an injure someone. Besides, I imagibe itll be a strong case required to win and ib this specific case I do t think its strong enough

Not sure why Wilkins gets a bad press, V V V knowledgeable

I think/hope we will start to see changes now, thankfully the FA have started to address weaknesses in coaching and are attempting to influence academy football which is a good thing. The emphesis like I said needs to be in creating a squad of transfereable players that are able to adequately step up into the full team if required, realistically you do that by growing a team from the youth levels and get them used to paying together and using the same tactics throughout the age groups. Still think the sheer amount of games we play in England will have an effect aswell, unfortunately I get the impression that Int football is seen as a hinderance more than anything.

Straight in what ? The U21s ? Doubtful Its about player integration as much as anything, which is why players are called up in groups. Despite the constant crap spouted by the masses players arent just called up because of the club thats just crap. Its due to time constraints imposed on the ability to coach teams at Int level. It works for many of the continental teams as most have 'developed' a team from schoolboy level up, keeping the majority of the side the same and instilling the importance of youth development at young ages and the importance of tournament experience. Unlike us who allow our players to pull out of the youth internationals too frequently.

Not that the English FA have any real idea of how to progress a 'team' from original inception and onto the world stage, its one thing having a group of players with talent, another to fashion a team. Personally I think that its better to gain experience as they grow, I.e keep the u19s and u21s as a unit until such a time as you need them in the full squad.

I only ask, as I have just recieved a ticket for parking at McDonalds at Hedge end of all places. The annoying thing is I was actually in the bloody restaurant, my manager and I have a catch up every now and then so we popped in for a coffee. I did phone the restaurant to have a bit of a moan but typically what sounded like a 15 yr old 'manager' picked up and wasnt particularly helpful. Its how do deal with it next, a large part of me wants to just pay up and make it go away but the other half of me thinks no, I was actually using the service provided !! Its slightly more complicated, the notice went of to Lex Autolease who are now sending it through to myself. Just wondered how GB got on and whether he just paid up

How did you get on ?

TBF it certainly helps..... But yes, it will mean consistant levels of spending and a fair sprinkling of luck
