Completely agree. I know there is some excitement about Ipswich’s achievements this season but such spectacular rises are comparatively rare and for every Ipswich there’s a Plymouth who were - this...
Tricky…no one is denying that VAR, or it’s implementation at least, has certain flaws…that the standard of officiating in football is not all it should be…and, to acknowledge your most tenuous of...
Of course Man.Utd are normally a bigger attraction than Coventry but this is the FA Cup Final…it sells itself and the (admittedly unlikely) possibility of a giant killing is just as attractive to the...
Agreed, AF. He took on the club, and with it a massive risk, in hugely difficult circumstances.
Despite having absolutely no previous experience of running a football club he acted out of ‘love’...
You do realise that only the over 65’s understand that reference…leaving Sith even more bewildered than he was earlier.
Sorry mac…although I think Honeybus were about ten years prior to the ‘milksnatcher’.
Wow…not even 24 hours on and you’re getting rid! Bit harsh, but my initial feelings are…build around, Wildsmith, Cashin, Nelson, Rooney, Sibley, Nyambe, Adams (hopefully), CBT, NML, Brown and Smith....
Wow…you are hungover! He wasn’t…Rosenior was.
Lol…wouldn’t go that far, GP…credit where it’s due and all that…but, seeing as you’ve brought it up, it may be worth remembering that of yesterday’s two goal scorers…Rosenior had a great deal to do...
Well said RS. Not the most comfortable of afternoons at times but ultimately they posed little threat. Less pleasant decisions can wait a while…in the meantime let’s just celebrate a job well done...
Very strange definition of ‘bent’ Tricky.
As regards your match against Everton you got one dreadful decision against you. The other two were exactly as mac describes.
In the Coventry case…the...
Sorry, we’ll have to agree to differ on the athletics comparison. Agree about it ruining the spontaneity of the game but, as I’ve said, that’s what we (football fans) have to decide on. Do we want to...
Not really disagreeing with you, GP and your tennis example is clearly correct…but in cricket you know as well as I do that there is no actual coloured strip down the centre of the wicket and...
Except in 1966!;D
Beyond that I think I agree with you, but are there not ‘fixed lines’ drawn onto the screen in Stockley Park? I thought that was the point and that Jota’s goal, for instance,...
I completely agree with you. The question though remains…what do we, as fans, actually want?
In this case the decision arrived at by VAR was correct…the Coventry player was, by the most minuscule...
…and that is absolutely the point,MA. The argument cannot be about VAR. VAR did its job, just as a similar system has doubtless done for scores of photo finishes in athletics over the years. The...
Absolutely right. Take nothing for granted…but Simmo wouldn’t do that to us…would he?
God I hope not…an early Derby goal would be more than welcome…3-1 Derby, a few scares but job done.
Concerns about Attwell should always be raised…he is, imo, the most incompetent and clueless official I’ve ever seen in 63 or so years of watching live sport. Not ‘crooked’…just dreadful.
To backtrack a little…agreeing with your comments about Clattenburg, but not VAR.
I think we have to ask why VAR, or its equivalent, is used so successfully in other sports - horse racing,...
On the brink. At last we can (almost!) look forward to the season finale. Never in doubt…;D ;D ;)
Wow…you’ve done it again! Having started an immigration thread and got all of three replies in eight days - two of which were you talking to yourself - you’ve introduced ‘immigration’ to a thread it...
It is indeed Tricky…as, back on topic, yet another Tory scandal unfolds. Last time it was compromising photos of ‘Wee Willy Wragg’ and how he dropped his colleagues in it…this week it’s Mark Menzies...
Lol…course you did…
…but 1-3 away win anyway.
Counting gone awry since retirement, GP? :oO:);D
Still…a better position than we might have expected…almost there.
Interesting MA…of the current squad Ebou Adams would be one of the first names I’d want to see signed up permanently for next season, but he also fits your description of one who had ‘hardly played’...
