A few years back a mate of mine got shown around a house by Mick Gooding. Apparently he was really good with my mate's young daughter, asking her if she liked the house and about school and stuff in a genuine and non-patronising way. Left a lasting impression on his wife and daughter, which is nice...

I would put Steve Evans, a man we've loved to hate, down as an opposition fan for last night's game. He was, however, very fair and balanced with his comments and assessment of the game, paying us quite a few compliments. Interestingly, both he and Jobi (perhaps less of a surprise) clearly stated t...

But it didn't break up momentum because a freekick had already been awarded and it didn't really delay the restart, other than the short time taken to give him the yellow. If it was about "game management" he would've been better off saving it for a more critical situation that might aris...

When he jumps he is somehow lower in the air than he was when he was standing. It’s like he jumps inside himself like a oxf*rd accordion. The technical term for this is an Asaba. Brill. The number of us that used to imitate the Asaba, where the shoulders went up and the neck/head sunk at the same t...

Why on earth did Ritchie decide to pick up his fourth yellow card of the season for what was, basically, pissing about with the ball? If I was Richardson, I'd have been fuming with that. It was fully deserved and I mean seriously Ritchie, wtf?

A whole lot of +1 to that.

Yep, good and sensible post. Agree with a lot of that

+1 nice to read a sensible measured post

Excellent post. Satan's spawn

Does anyone know anything about his footballing style? What are we looking at here, big strong lads, difficult to beat? Fast paced, short passing? Direct, attacking play? Many lower league managers fail because they attempt to introduce their own style of play / formation. Rather than look at the p...

Long read on/from Leam Richardson. https://learning.coachesvoice.com/cv/leam-richardson-wigan-athletic/ WIll give it a bit before I comment fully, but do think it deserves a proper read. Tbf it’s a decent read and can see why we might be interested in him Really good insight there papes. Nice work ...

Tony Mowbray. Sound as a pound, available and history of getting teams promoted out of this league.

:lol: Hunt is Mr Draws We drew too many at the end of last season which meant we didn't reach the Play-Offs We've drawn too many this season too. Sometimes going ahead then conceding, sometimes coming from behind to salvage a draw. The situation we're in we need to somehow be converting these draws ...

Hound 19th with the 3 teams below able to get above us with their game in hand.

As nan would say "What a load of shit".

Elm Park Kid Wednesday have gone into administration.

Apologies mate. You were clearly on the ball quicker than me.

Sheff Wed filed for administration then.

Given how thick, partisan and unaware of the rules many football fans are, this is a laughable statement. Exactly. On several occasions I have had to explain the laws of the game and the guidelines issued to the referees to people around me who are articulating bemusement/outrage at a decision made...

I know this may well be the wrong thread to be posting on, however just wanted to express sympathies to all Sheff Wed. supporters, given their current plight. After watching the highlights from last night, and seeing all the empty seats, it was a stark reminder of how close our club was to going dow...

I was listening to R5 and they were talking about Rangers fans already saying they have doubts about the new manager because he isnt a name like Gerard (LOL). Then I switched on West Ham Brentford. And the WHU fans are pissed off like they always are. I lived right among them in East London early 9...

Think this will be the crunch game for Hunt. Lose or draw and he's gone. Imagine we had the Notts Forest owner, Noel would have been well back on the golf course by now whilst, in the meantime, it would seem that Couhig can see the improvement taking place, regardless of our league position. Result...

Plus he needs to learn how to take a throw in. I mean we're talking about the basics here, right. I know he delivered one on Saturday, possibly two?

Scott Marshall. Who we had here previously had a game or two in charge of the 1st team. Always get the impression that Scott Marshall is way too laid back. Not saying that we need a raving lunatic in the background, getting booked in most games, however somebody with a touch more va va voom wouldn'...

This is the time of the season where you keep your job for two reasons: 1 - you are where you should be in the table given your relative budget - in our case, that should be top half, not bottom four. 2 - you are turning around a team but from scratch, and there are clear signs of improvement, even...
