    Did mine this morning, no probs.  Did it from my iPad, which it recognises as “trusted device” so no further authentication required.  At what point did you get stuck?

    Right at the very end. It isn't my technology Dave. I'm glad it worked for you this time. They are aware of issues. I've had numerous conversations with them about Word Pay and its failings. That aside, merely pointing out that leaving it to the last minute to renew not necessarily a good idea. Piss take booking fee as well given the large amount of money being spent. Oh, such joy.

    I wasn't watching all of it, but in the bits I did watch it felt like a matter of time before BL scored.

    Saw it all, didn't really get that feeling until after the first goal. Moyes knows how to set up a team to stifle, fabulous work ethic, no other plausible way to approach BL at the moment, work for breaks. Relentless nature told in the end. Probable Cup winners I'd say. On a massive roll. Amazing for such a small city.

    Is it unlucky when Leverkusen had over 30 shots to West Ham's 1?

    Not what I meant, very discilplined and blocked everything, ball evaded everyone for goal 1. Second a very well taken set piece. Good team BL but you can praise a defensive set up. Did you watch all of it?

    Feels like there's some sort of irony to this thread, pointing out how posters find something to complain about even after a good win? Complaining about complaining.

    Don't understand how people can let any of those comments even get 1 second of brain thought, i just skim past them. 

    Take your own advice and give it a rest giving a fck about those posters 

    I think many could do with a rest.

  5. There are a great many who are not in either of these camps. They roll with it to a large extent, sometimes up, sometimes down, sometimes frustrated and exasperated, but always hoping for the best, and at least a little entertainment. We all lose our composure a bit form time to time, but quite a lot on here and elsewhere are less extreme than those polarised at either end of the spectrum. In the end, both factions truly have our best interests at heart otherwise they are wasting large chunks of their existence here and at games. What I will note from somewhere here in the centre is that the critical elements are generally far more reasonable, erudite and analytical, backing up their arguments (and inviting critique) whether one might agree with them or not. On the other side, there is a lot of blind faith and entrenchment but rarely much detail as to why they hold their position. Loyalty over logic also plays a significant part. That is just my view, for what it is worth. I'd really love to hear detail from the pro Manning side (not really Manning, as such, it is the "in "x" (insert name of latest incumbent) we trust" mentality), what it is specifically that they have seen evolve, how it has evolved, how it might evolve and what might need improvement, etc.

    Superb performance tonight.  Hard to single any player really. Everyone has been brilliant.  Tanner and Roberts great. Williams brilliant off the ball.  McCrorie much improved.  Knight probably motm for me but can’t argue with any nomination 

    Knight probably the busiest, back where he belongs. Blackburn amazingly bad, Hyam probably a career low. Hats off to us for being ruthless.
