  1. I don't think there are many developers who live locally would pull the rug on the club. It would be hellish to face those consequences. I suspect he will be buying the ground at such a bargain privce and then rent back at such a great return he will not ever need to sell up. Of course the fans will be part of the carve up as they will campaign to get the ground for nothing and then have a buy clause to get it for a song after 5 years or so. Not once thinking that BC saved them and now are happy to cheat him of his money. I wish he was never on the scene as they would have been a club of the past
  2. I listened to 5 minutes of the game on Solent,I had to turn it off as that damn drum. It must put a lot of decent fans off going, who want to go to football not a tribal drum recital
  3. nor do I by choice but to leave NA in charge is a massive risk. The substitution of RL against MAn U with 25 minutes to go was a nonsense, to then do similar against FUlham showed he learned nothing. I suspect NA sanctioned playing the reserves with NC. And so expect he is clear about last night but !
  4. Phil, the best man in BRitish football for the job! Not IMO, he has made some pathetic calls this season and that has cost us dear. We cannot afford anymore. If HR came with JOe Jordan we may stay up. Jordan would have to be with him because HR without big Joe is not tactically aware enough. Yes it is galling to think that Rosie 47 was arriving, but to most fans who are not as engrossed as us would take him on. I recall when GH was coming back and the cost it had on the club before.If NC gets him in we may have the chance of seeing us climb the league, and with JOrdan in the changing room I don't the will to win would not be there
  5. NA stated we need stability and that is after having 3keepers and dropping/subbing our talisman. The confidence points dropped and the players faith in the manager will be vital in the long run. NA will rue the 2games where he took RL off when in winning positions as if we had only gained 2 points from those games his position would be much better today. The fans who travelled last night were short changed and it was shamefully disrespectful to them as much as anyone. I have never been on the bus but have enjoyed the success, but aim sorry to say that such a decent man is out of his depth. He will get other teams promoted again but if ML 5 year plan is to be completed it will be without NA. I am sad about this as the club need stability but we also need to stay up, the tv money is going to be even more important from next season. We went down before just at the start of the big tv revenues and we don't want that to happen again
  6. It was embarrassing when Fowler was saying how poor we were us on SSN.
  7. I expect clubs would get their best players on long term contracts but the journeymen (90pc of a squad) would be on a short term contract.
  8. My wife's going to get therapy as when she met Jimmy Saville as a young girl he only patted her on the head!
  9. Pompey were the better side in the first half and there looked only to be one winner.It was galling to hear the commentator keep harping on how tough it was for them, and how they didnt know each others name etc. I didnt watch the second half and so was surprised to see the score. Busaky and Allen were very good. in fact they looked a decent side. I suspect a lot of clubs may take a leaf out of this model, get rid of their expensive acadamies and just put the squads on 1 month contracts. it seems sensible as they wont have to pay wages during the summer, much like it was before Jimmy Hills campaign that got full time contracts and player power in the early 60's (??)
  10. I dont see the hype about him, he is just an ok defensive midfielder who has not protected the back four enough. The mistakes keep happening at the back, and are not his fault. I dont look at the statistics I judge a player with my eyes....perhaps i need to go to specsavers
  11. if thats the case then that is why we will go down. A defensive midfielder whose job is to screen the defence, and we are shipping shedloads of goals Lol
  12. How do you do the Adblock?
  13. Borucgate will be a big talking point
  14. great as my granddaughter was with me! Ii know it was not intentional
  15. This one put up a adult site
  16. I am pleased to have read that VFTT and would like to be assured, but it is the FL we are talking about!!!! Add to that they should get more penalties due to the other financial irregularities
  17. i now live in Wiltshire and the Swindon fans i know don't like him, and do not like the way he treated the young keeper. He then went on and ridiculed the club in his interview, saying something about being only a L1 club
  18. that would be a disgrace. His man management skills are appalling, add to that his Fascist salute and he can do one
  19. thats odd. i think it is a travesty how he has been treated. I was amazed when he didnt play in the first game and only came on as sub. So our 2 stalwarts who were the main reason for our promotions are cut adrift KD and now RL . I accept KD had a dip in form but RL!!!!
  20. The fans will go to the FL and give them the guff about them being owned by the fans, how badly they have had it etc etc etc and the FL will go all dewey eyed and waive the -10. I will be gobsmacked if the FL give the Trust -10. As soon as trhe trust tell the FL that the club will be liquidated as they cant proceed and the 'integrity of the competition' (lol) will be effected and they will cave in. I suspect they have already given the intimation in the talks already.
  21. i wonder what dork gave him the terrible dead leg in the first place.
  22. how can the league allow them to loan out players and then loan others in? It is laughable. Do the other league clubs just sit and watch and say nothing?
  23. Kenwynne left as he wanted to play in the top league. no different to Bale , Ox and Theo. Ok he went about it badly but if someone offered you 400% wage rise most would do their best to go. He still has a future and if he came it would be good for both parties as he has something to prove.
  24. NA PICKS THE TEAM.He is the man responsible for taking RL off when we were leading in both games. NOT NC ETC. Like Liverpool when they got rid of Carrol, we will have to do the same if the club feel we can get mo0ney back in for him. It is a disaster, and I feel that it will be hard for RL ever to get his form back now he would rightly believ3e the management dont think he is good enough
