Re: Liam Managing

Against Lincoln, there was more togetherness on the pitch and in the stands (apart from that dickhead in front of us who kept having a go at Henry). They did nothing apart from get a penalty, whilst their MotM was as their keeper. Even if that was only down to his save from GO'Ds header, Lincoln rem...

Re: KR in / KR out?

I thought it was the other C Short who worked on the sports science side? That aside, someone had to be put in caretaker charge, so some of the criticisms of them being put in temporary charge seem excessive. I just hope the recruitment process was started well before today. What we don't know, and ...

Re: KR in / KR out?

I think what we need, even on a short term basis, is an experienced manager who knows how to organise and motivate players. Apart from the obvious point of having to work with what he has, we have talented players. Recent weeks have suggested to me a lack of clarity over structure and roles as much ...

Re: KR in / KR out?

Having been otherwise engaged yesterday, I am currently listening back to the Wasn't At The Game show. The man has totally lost the plot with such a disgraceful interview. It is not just about one point in 21, it is about who we are losing to and that nothing has shown a hint of a scintilla of an im...

Re: Where are they now?

Quite, KE. I got quite angry reading that piece, because I thought it contained some utter drivel and questionable logic. Case in point: "Football should never be a ‘business’ in the purest sense of the word, and I’m reluctant to agree that players should be used as assets to increase that busi...

Trouble Brewing

Well, it as either that or "Gone for a Cliche"... That was one of the most pitiful, clueless and inept performances I have seen in a long time - well, at least since the home games against Burton, Morecambe and MK earlier in the season. Yet this somehow felt worse, against a team that had ...

Re: Give Us A (Stratfield) Brake

I heard or read something recently that suggested that The Triangle offers rather more limited opportunities for off-field revenue-raising than Stratfield Brake. Any sense that that option weakens the economic viability of the move fatally? What might that imply for the economics of the project and ...

Re: Gonners

I too watched on TV, but only because I had to get up well before the crack of dawn on Tuesday to fly over to the US (just wish I had the time to check out Mile High Stadium while I am here). The first half, as has been said, highlighted our (relative) strengths but also our very well-known limitati...

Re: All over bar the shouting

Wednesday: they had an experimental line-up and were all over the place. We had two decent chances that only came deep into the game. Wednesday are third for a reason, but they had an off-day and we should, but could not, take advantage. Ipswich: an excellent team that we made look even better. Yes ...

Re: Sheffuc*ing Frozen Until About Wednesday

Respect. Coward that I am I bottled it, despite it being an easy train + tram trip. But, as with Accy, I was able to watch on iFollow. I know they were talking about changing the rule on Saturday 3pm broadcasts - does anybody know if it has formally changed, or is something else going on? Something ...

Re: Give Us A (Stratfield) Brake

My thoughts precisely. Looking at the previous plan, that little triangle is much smaller than the intended size for just the stadium, let alone everything around it. It is not at all clear to me how the "considerable challenges" will be resolved simply by moving the stadium site across th...

All Four One

Well, that finished up OK, but all that nonsense on RadOx about who people want in the next round, and where, I just found tiresome. I got a very similar feeling here as against Vale - that there are rather a lot of mediocre teams in League 1 and that as we rise up the table we are getting closer to...

Re: A valiant effort

The excellent finger-tip save from Easty at 1-0 and some wayward efforts from Vale ensured we did not lose our momentum, but it is easy to forget some of their recent games from that performance, including a win at Derby and a draw at Wycombe, with two goals scored by them in each game. But even if ...
