Erm, no, not really. Nobody retracts comments about me, and some real humdingers have been flying around last couple of days.

Nobody really wanted ? I thought Reading said no to us having an option ? Interesting to note that we have an option with Goolie and had one with Papa - maybe AP felt less confident about Antonio and didnt bother ?

If you want a definition of foolish, I suggest you look no further than the way you try to spin and defend absolutely everything that happens.

Wow, that old card. Totally taken out of context, as per usual.

Keep up your joly japes guys, and watch as the results you all complacently expect fail to materialise...

Whereas you and hypochondriac have decided it was beastly Reading's fault without any evidence. Your turn... Maybe people in glass houses shouldnt throw stones.

Why is it a fact ? Maybe we simply didnt bother asking.

Would explain a few things if that were the case, like how we are scratching around now like headless chickens.

Because of how bad the team is currently. Obviously.

Agreed.

Its not worth bothering to explain to people like that, mate.

Why did you spoil an interesting post with the stupid unecessary dig ?

Thanks for posting that. AP sounded positively bubbling with enthusiasm for Papa at that stage. Sad that it didnt turn out like that. fingers crossed that this time round is more successful.

No, 18 months is approximately Xmas, not the other end of the season. This is going to be resolved by NC one way or the other long before then.

Who said he wasnt ? He wasnt exactly overused though, was he ? Thread is therefore not redundant, but please feel free to pass on by if you feel there is nothing of value for you here.

Nah, hes just being sarcastic.

It might have played a small role, yes. But my understanding was that he nearly made it to the Plymouth game. It just seems odd that we were doing things like playing Pulis in pre-season games when I have more chance of turning out against Rovers than him, and that we barely played our starting XI (or those fit) together.

Eh ?

Hey WA22A ! How are you doing ?? I thought you left. Always pleased to read your rustical byline on matters..

Yes, there are quite a lot of assumptions there, thought the only assertion of mine is the sense that he was under-utilised. There seems to be quite a body of opinion that AP and Papa didnt get on though - didnt Papa say this to the press at some point or another ?

How many of the 35 appearances were over 10minutes ?

Can you explain why AP was so reluctant to use him then, if he knew all about him ?

I know I was being completely pedantic. Sorry. But Brentford is one of those that really f**ked me off last season.

Do you reckon we should have gone for Lee ?

Brentford ??
