Amazing that if a top 6 sides defender hits a pass its 'A Rolls Royce of a pass' if other defenders from lower teams do it , it becomes a hoof and hope.

Don't start coming on here pretending you're all posh, popcorn and chicken in a bucket ffs, we all know its roadkill with lavender on the side

yes it was

He was on my side lol, the other side had an ex Saint who never quite made the heights. Can recall who

Perhaps 150 but none of us really know the selling price with these things. You are correct we have some assets who have a value

I think they both were rested (JB cup tied) so probably in the plans!!!!

Ok thanks.

200M really? I doubt there will be many paying over the odds for our failing players, who have shown they are not consistent PL performers. You also have to add into the mix that SR will need to get money in and so we will not be getting premium fees.

I ask a question, JWP was playing a No 10 role under Jones and seemed to be better for it. Have we moved him back to the sideways/backwards passing routine again? It was quite refreshing to see one of our players bursting into the box to pick up the pieces, seems to me that it has been stopped

Thanks Matty, I know he is not good with his feet but to my mind I want someone who stops goals and not so worried about a fancy dan who can pass the ball. IMHO I think he is a better bet at present than Baz

How did McCarthy play btw

they'd beat us lol

How does VAR determine when the ball is actually kicked, and is it as soon as the ball leaves the foot ? If it is done manually by a human who draws the line when he thinks it is kicked can make a split second mistake and so the player is deemed offside.

100% when I played in a Football aid game he was our captain and in the team, he said sfa. His leadership was in his win mentality

So you think that SR are going to change course and ditch the buying youth to sell on, to all of a sudden buy seasoned pro's ? To clear out all the dross and coaches will cost a fortune we do not have. Especially with our income slashed dramatically. We will have a pool of players on fat contracts who few will want to buy. I recall Sunderland going down and being in a similar situation. We are totally done for, Gao was a far superior owner than this lot, whilst he couldnt send money to us due to the Chinese government, he let the club run without the mad professor ideas that SR brought. Many thought they were saviours but I with others (probably yourself) were sceptical. As for 'we won the transfer window' in the summer lol

He is nowhere near in this group. Redmond made as many assists as JWP last season, and at least scored now and again. He also did go into the box and try to make things happen

I know I shouldn't say this but sometimes I wish we had gone to the wall. The amount of angst this club gives me is to a stage where I kind of laugh in the faces of the club players and board. They dont care

I dont wish to knock him but Im more concerned if the people who thought he was PL standard and went for him are still selecting targets!!!! I just looked at our squad and so they are lol

Carr made a flick out at the opposing player who pushed him in the back, when he had a player absolutely mocking him/us he just looked at him and walked on. If he had lamped him at the time I'm sure the majority of fans would have made him a cult hero.

without a doubt, although we were heading that way with Ralph. Although Marche would have also done the same and the jury is out on Selles.

You forgot to mention Puel in that list. We can agree that Ralph needed to be gone as his team and performances were dire for more than just this season.

Salivating Lol. I will hold my hand up and say I thought we should give him a chance, but I did not want him in the first place. Iam a fair minded person and had the mindset that we had him and so best give him a chance. It has been a disaster but the recipe and ingredients had been mixed by your mate Ralph. Yes I do want us to be aggressive and tough to beat btw. I do want us to become a club where we dont give the opposition a garland of flowers as they arrive. I want them to fear coming to SMS, and they wither under the atmosphere of an Elland Road, Anfield, Goodison Park etc. I do want us to be aggressive in the tackle Use the dark arts, as we have been too nice for too long. Too many fans want us to be loved by other clubs and worry what they think of us. What people have to realise that they say nice things about us due to the fact we make their lives easy. We give their fans a wonderful experience, an end of the ground so that they dilute our home advantage.

This season it seems,

We are SR's chemistry set to play with, sadly they had trouble opening the box let alone actually playing with it

You were intimating that Ralph had done well by keeping us up xx
