Positive points at last. Mawhinney can kiss my shiny red arse. Playoffs here we come....

Are we finished ??

No, its OPINION.

He got the team tactics right today; expecting him to get the subs right in the same step is a bit greedy...

To coin an excuse made by many, the beginning of the season was complete chaos.

An old head with a bit of authority. Is it really rocket science to so many ?

One word, dude.... BALANCE

He's been great the last few games, and has completely proved me wrong. But let's face it, Pardew has taken a while to wake up, and the question as to whether this performance would have occurred without the bed rock of Hammond and Wotton behind him remains valid. Wish I could find the thread from a few days ago when I suggested playing Wotton alongside Hammond...

So, a midfield with balls and hunger (Wotton) does the business in a way a pretty midfield (Schneiderlin) can only dream of. Quelle surprise...

Wonderful. Just what the doctor ordered. When did we last score 4 ??

FFS.

heheh. Like it.

As am I. But he is actually turning on loads of people for being "negative". I just dont have the good sense not to bite back.

I voted 16th-18th. Despite the obvious mis-firing of the team, I simply cannot foresee another relegation.

Seeing as I withdrew my kids from the English system about a year ago, I think I am perfectly qualified to judge it. Not a topic for discussion here though. I assume you are teacher. Of course, you all do a swell job...

I always suspected you were still at school; only the current education policies of this bankrupt ZaNuLabour government could possibly have given rise to eloquence and rationale that characterise each syllable of each of your posts....

I was convinced that a genuine buyer would come forward at some point. The club has a huge catchment area, good facilities, and a good name in the sport. I simply could not see a future with no SFC. Sure, I was a frustrated as the most avid anti-admin person with the time-wasting and twists-and-turns, but I always felt it would happen. The club has a great future, despite the current mis-firings of the manager and players, that it was NEVER going to have under Lowe, Wilde, Askham and co.

Do you also remember the horrendous abuse those of us who advocated this route all along received from fellow posters ?

Jesus, apart from winning, what else can breed confidence apart from scoring and hearing the roar of the crowd and the smiles of women, men and children in the stands that come in response to scoring ? These are meant to be professional footballers, not psychiatric hospital inmates FFS.

We always go deep after scoring.

Anyone still in doubt as to how much of a prize c*ck Lowe was ?

Superb. Another poor sap to pay whilst he gets frustrated at zero supply. Priority for me would be for someone to help Hammond dominate midfield.

I havent. I suggest you take your own advice.

I somehow doubt that very much. He's his own man with his own viewpoint, influenced by his own observations and expectations.

What a strange rationale you follow. Cortese has a plan. If it deviates to the point where the overall goal of the plan is endangered, he will take action. He obviously hasnt reached that point yet, but he may be concerned. I dont know the details or the milestones of his plan, hence the thread I started speculating on how long he will put up with it.
