  1. Bexy in "opponents done their homework" shocker...
  2. Yep, too many arrogant gobby tw*ts on here at the moment by far. We are back on the edge again, after weeks of good work. In fairness, its got a bit stale in the past couple of weeks.
  3. I seem to recall reading somewhere that survival is even more difficult in the second season following promotion than the first, since the euphoria of the promotion itself and motivation to punch-above-weight as plucky little club promoted has then well-and-truly worn off. For me, survival next season re-instates us to the PL Regulars club, by then stadium expansion (or not) will probably be decided, and then we can set targets to push-on for.
  4. I thought that they only contribute to the refs decision-making on goal-line issues, and have no influence over decision-making on other aspects of the game ?
  5. Much as NC clearly doesnt suffer fools or failure gladly, I still think the buy-out and his stewardship are guided by Swiss/German business ethics and not Anglo-American ones. Which means this is a very long-term project, to be seen through to its conclusion. There is still the less-than-trivial targets of stadium expansion and Champions League football to aspire to.
  6. A good point, but because of Stoke and Sunderlands results we are getting sucked back into the mix. We need another win, preferably against one of those two.
  7. This - I simply dont beleive it. No doubt the tabloids are in a frenzy trying to find the first victim to step forward.
  8. Lawro worried about us my *rse. At least normal service has been resumed.
  9. Maybe have the red coming more onto the front, but could live with the home version deffo. Dont like the away version colours, we'd loose our players in the crowd a la the Manyoo butt-f**king. A blue-light blue version as in the Patrick era would look interesting.
  10. Indeed. Its so stupid its jaw-dropping...
  11. Anyone else seen the picture on the net showing a boy stood over a table with hands cupped around a Kinder Surprise egg, and a girl stood at the table holding a Bushmaster assault rifle and the caption says : "One child is holding something banned in the US to protect them - guess which one ?"
  12. Why, are you saying that their pointing out of his selection myopia is incorrect ? This week has been interesting for me. It really has pointed out the weaknesses of the human pysche. If somebody dislikes something or someone, they are completely incapable of admitting that said entity or person is capable of getting something right occasionally. Having said that, I see it in the reactions to my posts every day, of which you are usually a classic example.
  13. Top 10 is a stunning achievement, couldnt care less about Stoke.
  14. LOL. Getting plenty of stick on the Daily Mail site for his treatment (or lack of) of our players.
  15. So many to choose from.... My favourites are Forecast (Pulis may have been equally sh*t, but stories havent reached me of him being an arrogant billy-big-balls in town) Idiotkez for being the biggest load of overrated sh*t we ever signed (I am hoping he doesnt face competition from Ramirez over time) Davenport for being the most totally disinterested w*nker since David Speedie
  16. I wouldnt be surprised if the job gets handed over to MI5 soon...
  17. No objection from me, but not too fond of the white shorts looking back.
  18. One of them may be missing next year, whilst another "new red" team, Cardiff, comes up. I am all for Addidas giving us an inverted Ajax top with black shorts, hence re-creating the Rank Xerox kit.
  19. Isnt it nice to know the future of the national team is under the stewardship of a blind, incompetent bell-end....
  20. I voted - just - for promotion from L1. Simply because of that last 15-game run. Will never be repeated.
  21. Ironic therefore that this happened in Boston... RIP Martin Richard and the other victims.
