Re: What's the Problem?

Extrapolating a 46 game season from 5 matches is meaningless.

Re: Brighton and Reading fans............

Didn't it all start in about 2003 / 2004? - they wanted more than the 4,000 ticket allocation we were giving them for some match because they were such a massive club with a long history and we were plastics in a plastic out of town stadium etc. etc. blah blah blah. Either way, irrational dislikes ...

Re: Brighton and Reading fans............

Brighton and Reading are pretty similar clubs, Brighton just a few years back in terms of evolution. Not a jibe - they got the new ground 15ish years later than us and only now are they regulars at the top end of the table. I'm sure they'll go up eventually, get bought by some foreign chancer with n...

Re: BTFG Wolves

Goal difference might come into it when we're fighting relegation come the end of the season so at least we limited them to two.

I'd be surprised if he's even the top scorer in one game tbh

Re: Euro 2016 Thread

Dogshit tournament, too many big names going awol, not enough goals, very few matches that will live long in the memory.

Underdog narrative supplied by Wales and Iceland carried the tournament a little of the way but a tournament can't exist on a couple of upsets alone.

If they played against England tomorrow, do you seriously think England would get the same result??


Nope, reckon England would score three tbh

Re: What is the point in HRK

He's made a fortune off us since his one "good" season in the PL.

if any scouts are reading this (and I'm sure they are) - he's absolute toss and you'll regret signing him. Cheers.

Re: Gunter / HRK / Wales

Welsh people in petty-minded inferiority complex shocker. I'd say I've been supportive of Wales thus far but when they do eventually get knocked out I'll probably take a moment to chuckle at the likes of Ashley Williams weeping into the turf. I don't think it's inferiority complex - or at least, no...

Re: Euro 2016 Thread

lol, Wales' goal was a horrendous goalkeeping error. And so what if the equaliser came off Williams' head? That's what you get for being under constant pressure and pinned back in your own area all half. England had 20 attempts at goal in that game and 70% possession. Anyone who thinks Wales were be...

Re: England's provisional squad announced

The newspaper narrative was always going to be driven by the result. When I think back to games like Algeria '10 and USA '10 there's just no way you can compare those draws to last night. We genuinely stank out the tournament back then - I'd even argue our 1-0 win over Slovenia wasn't as good a perf...

Well he's certainly copped some abuse.

I'm only really posting this to ask why we only have one thread for the entire competition? Makes a mockery of an entire forum dedicated to it.

Re: Another finals another load of idiots

Saddened to see fighting from Russian, French, Hungarian, German, Croatian, Ukrainian and English fans this tournament.

Chuck out the Belgians for throwing a flare on the pitch too and you're back down to 16 teams and a more sensible format :!:

Re: Euro 2016 Thread

As I said above, Sturridge getting the ball 40 yards from goal just doesn't work for me. He needs those quick feet in the box or going 1v1 not when he's so far back*
