    This is my issue with the narrative around "individual errors".

    Yes, the error itself may be individual, but it comes from imposing a high risk brand of football on lower league players who are...

    Not so long ago I defended McClean's right not to wear a poppy if he didn't want to, because that's free speech and expression, even though I have a different view. The problem here is that this...

    Yes that was noticeable.

    Self-evidently the balance between attack and defence this season hasn't been right, and it's clear from the comments that the club is going to look for players who are...

    Yes, but a legitimate one. No point having these nights and everything being nicey nicey. The fact is that several of Cameron's performances this season haven't been worthy of a captain, and...

    Absolutely true. I saved £40 a month by saying I was going to leave and initially meaning it. Sadly, you get the treatment you're willing to tolerate, and customer loyalty to a company -which should...

    Aside from Jim O'Brien, the list of those released is pretty much what I expected, as is the list of those "made available". Baldwin just never seemed to learn from his crass errors, and Bostock's...

    I think you're presenting a somewhat false dichotomy between "really going for it" and "boring as hell", which certainly isn't what I'm advocating.
