  1. Wearing those shoes with a suit, how bloody poor is that. I so wanted Rangers to compete with Celtic but my hopes are dashed
  2. This time last week I was in Funchal.......Ronaldo has left his club a coincidence?
  3. Manning is a very good Championship player.I expect him to stay
  4. I expect they are targetting the mindless hooligans on their database lol😀
  5. It was nice to have quite a few enjoyable weekends where we had won, but I cant recall many where I thought 'well we made mincement of them, it was easy' So many were dire. Losing to Rotherhams and Stoke, scrapping (exciting,lucky)win against Huddersfield, Cardiff etc took us close to throwing away our advantage. Playing out with high risk from the back was always a risk that IMO was more an advantage to the opposition than to us. As for passing for passing sake!! Sadly the players have muscle memory and still dont think to play the ball forward as a first thought. Will take a lot of work to get rid of that
  6. Exactly, Baz getting injured was the reason we got up. Macca did very well and the defence were less jitterry once he was there. I love when a keeper comes out and catches the ball to take the pressure off the defence. It was something that Macca didmany times in the last few games
  7. I do agree, but on the other hand once he got us back up, to play the way he did so recklessly, seemingly not caring what he was doing to us and club was tantemont to treason. He gave us a high and then demoralised us the next moment.
  8. Wasnt that a Beatles hit...it please please me if youget RM although he could be a masterstroke. You have still the best midfield in the Championship presently
  9. Well not quite, I suggest it was Puels management did that.
  10. Oh we do I promse you, just read a match thread lol
  11. Well he came 4th in the 3 horse race so lets wait and see
  12. But its not THE Anchilotti
  13. I think @mental' or 'good luck with that one' will be said sooner lol
  14. Another good episode. I love to know who Alfie alludes to when he says some players are not very happy with him. He is a good summeriser
  15. Im not sure about any candidates, but a little concerned re Still, as will he be focussed as his girlfriend is really unwell and that will of course be his no 1 priority. I recall the season Merrington was our manager his wife was unwell, he had a problem as his mind was elsewhere at times, we did stay up by the skin of our teeth that season. If I recall correctly he missed a game or 2 towards the end of season.
  16. I feel that the way the fans have taken the season the way we have is that we knew that the squad wasnt up to it and so accepted our fate. Abusing the owners is all well and good, but where does that get us. Ive seen many a fan shout abuse on the terraces, but when they come face face they almost get on their knees in reverence. Most fans are all talk
  17. It surprised me, bu I saw it online somewhere
  18. Weve bought ours, so thats 4 sold
  19. Im sorry but that is ridiculous, the header was not an easy chance, Archers was the easiest of the day, but took a great save to stop it
  20. Thats the thing with you Turks, you make so many thought provoking threads. Imgonna follow the team you do as you are so well informed that they are bound to win things
  21. I notice that Ings has gone to Watford!
  22. So was I, also in Coventry, Watford, Sheffield, I made sure i covered all angles.
  23. Intersting what Fernandes said after the game about being fitter (something like that) about training. RM didnt prepare us physically for the season, he didnt get players in who were anywhere near up to playing in this league. Sadly the muscle memory of the tippy tappy stuff is so ingrained now the players dont know how to play other ways, like forward!!!
