  1. We didnt score many goals and so the football was boring……...ohhh. A very unlucky man to hve lost his job, much like Chris Nichol he was judged after following a top manager and so was not properly appreciated
  2. Again a very good podcast, and agree Adam the standout, this week. As for that Steve bloke, all he talks about is going to the concourse to have a pint. He must watch the game on the tv's down there. I doubt he's been to many games
  3. I agree, it seems to be a token 'what can we do to make us look decent' without actually feeling any pain. Ok a lot of the backroom staff dont deserve to lose a weeks wage but the players??
  4. everytime we go a goal done there will be chants of we want 9
  5. its not the current board who bought the squad we have. If I owned the club and saw the state of the investment id get involved, 100m worth of buys on loan ffs.
  6. I read on here earlier that the players should be coached to be better, you cannot coach pace, heart and will to win or not be humiliated. The buying of this squad has been appalling and I cant see how we could improve this bunch.
  7. yes the club has alot to answer if not 99% for, but I know people wont like this but the club bowed to the fans and got rid of Puel. He was building with the majority of players who played on Friday. We played structured football with success and at times played some superb stuff. We just couldnt score. With time he may have been able to buy some who would change us and we could well have developed into a decent side, Who did he bring into Leicester that have helped make them the force they are, Yes they also got rid of him but again he had only just started.
  8. Just as the weekend looked a disappointment our friends at Pompey let in an injury time equalizer
  9. Sheff utd showing grit to get a point
  10. yeah but the new technology of VAR let us down 9 times, it was scandalous
  11. To a degree you are correct but there must be some good players around who dont cost 30m.I think you can look at other clubs where they have found decent players. Sheff Utds back 4 cost 5mapparently.
  12. When Ralph was being interviewed Stelling said that Redmond in his interview that it was embarrassing.I did not see an interview with Redmond, did Stelling get it wrong and meant Hojberg instead of Redmond. If not anyone got the Redmond interview?
  13. that looks promising and the way forward. we cant have players keep getting the manager sacked
  14. Bruce Grobbellar??
  15. I think we as a club have taken more bigger hidings in the top division than any other club over the years. For me it started with Everton 8-0 and then there have been a series of 6 - 7 - goal defeats. I suggest there must be at least 8 or 10 in the last 50 years. Good its bad enough having the re run of Leeds 7-0 on Motd since the 70's they can do a montage adding last nights game
  16. Nothing apparently as we are responsible for every bad thing in the world since earth's creation
  17. I suppose it depends if we are prepared for the managers arrogance or the players arrogance that they are prepared to sink the ship so that the can swim away from the wreck. Funnily enough we got stuffed by Leicester whose players see to rule the roast and have been responsible for getting rid of 2 or 3 managers. Horrible bunch it seems to me. As I have stated before CLough was never the same without Taylor and perhaps Ralph was with Rhl. This falls down as it was pointed out that Rohl hasn't always been Ralphs 2nd in command. For the life of me I cant understand why Rohl left us to go to Bayern lol
  18. I dont know I had to look the other bit up lol
  19. I think you should use the term Chineseman in this case, as in Englishman etc etc
  20. This is a joke, if you have a buyer then fine but there is nobody out there to take us on.
  21. He did not play a art in the peace process. He went on his own. He was a C list politician with no sway in the policies of HM Government. Do not try and cover him with glory as some kind of flux in the process ,it was a despicable to do something that goes against our nations interests. He was giving murderers some credibility by entertaining him. They used him, but he was of no real use to them, just the publicity he gave to their cause
  22. Its bit of both, it seems some players dont care and the squad just isn't mobile or energetic enough to do the job.I had hoped that Ralph having the summer with them they would be a lot different to what we have now
  23. Wee Willy Winkie Ross was another who was bigged up as a god but as with most of the others it was emperors new clothes
  24. Puel did well with the piles of crap he had at his disposal, whenyou think at least 7 who played last night were in the cup final team and finished 8th
