Spot on. Very well said.

It could work with Curtis at the helm if they brought in Nigel Pearson as his Assistant.

The odds to be looking at are those for relegation. 15/1 to small stakes on Betfair seems reasonable value to me. Absolutely devastated by this sacking and a lot of the players will be too.

Good God, the snake looks nervous.

HT Leeds v Rotherham 0-0 : Ayling RB for Leeds, Vyner RB for Rotherham.

Good points. Even when winning the manager should obviously be looking at ways to improve. I remember the famous Ferguson rant a while back after Aberdeen had actually won the Cup. Great first half, poor second to sum up. You pinpoint it exactly, mental and physical reasons. Physically it is a question of fitness, as you state, and the use of substitutes. Mentally, concentration yes...often goes when you're knackered, but also the worrying way we tend to not exercise control when ahead. To use Pack as an example, there were numerous times in the second half when Forest were building up a head of steam when he had the opportunity and plenty of time to bring the ball down and make a simple pass but instead chose to kick or head upfield as far as poss, give back possession and invite pressure. Great win though.

Sprake is also the only one, as far as I know, who managed to throw the ball into his own net for an O.G.

He started it.

I'll let you have the last word. I'm sure that's what you want.

The expression 'taste of one's own medicine' springs to mind. I'm sure you understood the point about good and bad law I was trying to make using a hypothetical example but you chose to ignore it and twist it around to further your own point-scoring agenda.

Coming from someone who tells us that we should '' ignore imaginary lines drawn on a map'' this advice is laughable.
