Re: The Manager Sack Race/Merry-go-Round

Sigh. Bad move from a good manager. Bad move to go to a club with better players and about £100m in parachute payments? Yeah really awful that. +1 Stoke are in a much better position than Derby to make a challenge for promotion. I don't think Stoke are going to be another Sunderland. Rumours are th...

Re: FAO Season Ticket Holders - Renew or not?

I will renew. Its nice to spend some time with the parents. Plus I've got a fairly decent seat so would pay a bit extra to sit in it knowing the people around me don't get *too* offended by my outbursts

Re: The generic transfer thread

Dortmund won't sell Aubameyang until they get Batshuayi Chelsea won't sell Batshuayi until they get Giroud Arsenal won't sell Giroud until they get Aubameyang lol Bizarrely the thing that is apparently holding it up is Arsenal's own demands on the fee for Giroud. If they get £35m for Giroud and rep...

Re: BFTG Sheffield Wednesday

I'm gonna be really unpopular and say... It didn't look *that* bad. :shock: Technically gifted players never make the grade at a certain level because their lack something. With many of the current squad it's consistantancy and concentration. No good being ok for 85 minutes in a game. Those few oth...

Re: Low away attendances

Winchester Royal I recall being part of 150 odd at Swansea in an FA cup replay in 2005.


Remember this, Forstet scored in extra time. Replay at the vetch on a Monday night?

Doncaster away a few years a go, 17:30 ko, think Mills got sent off for handball on the line. 2-1, couldn’t have been more than 200 there

Re: The one that worries me about January

The good thing about the business we did in the summer was not just add to the squad, we've got the young players on long term deals which means clubs will have to offer big money to lure them away Obita, Moore, Swift and Kelly all signed new deals (off the tp of my head) which means the turnover of...

Re: BFTG - Ramming the Rams

It was noticeable in the first half that Bacuna was dropping into centre half and one of the centre backs was going into midfield, which really stretched their midfield, simple but so effective to get out. Thought Richards was superb, as was Bacuna and Swift. Amazing what a bit of pace and confidenc...

Re: The Manager Sack Race/Merry-go-Round

I just can't get my head around the Leicester thing. Clearly Shakespeare had support in the dressing room - it was that politics that ultimately did for Ranieri. So you look at Leicester's results this season, and they have lost 4 times. To Arsenal, United, Chelsea and Liverpool. Not title winning ...

terrible game at the weekend....Mourinho park the bus tactics made for a dull game And Lukaku showing yet again why Mourinho didn't mind him leaving Chelsea. Having said that, if he carries on scoring loads of goals against the lesser sides it should keep Man Utd in with a shout of a top 6 finish a...

So come on then, hands up who's paid for a ticket at those prices? Looking forward to hearing your justification. I'm in, mainly because I enjoy going away from home and the cost of a ticket doesn't really bother me. I guess it all depends on whether you can afford to, or can justify paying it. Lee...

Re: ArsenaLOL

I'm not sure why people care about the Ox, £40m is a fantastic deal for a player who is in the last year of his contract and struggles to play 20 games a season, and when he does his returns are pretty poor. Will probably only play against lower division opposition.

Re: RUMOUR - Nelson Oliveira

We have Kermorgant until the end of the season, Bodvarsson as back up. The third striker really should be Samuel but is instead Smith. Someone silly good on loan would be fine, but I honestly don't get the Oliveira love in Third striker should ideally be Novacovic, bit unlucky we'd arranged his loa...
