  1. Everybody will moan about this until it actually starts and within a few weeks it will be thought of as a good idea
  2. Same as Brownhill when he went to the East End to take a corner for Burnley, first appearance / touch should be a polite round of applause then straight into the boooooing

    Twine

    Won't be a hard decision to drop more than a few next weekend, need to see a reaction at Hillsborough as today was beyond awful
  4. O'Leary Tanner Vyner Dickie McCrorie James TGH Pring Knight Twine Conway When everyone is fit we do actually have some real depth now with Atkinson, Roberts, Naismith, Williams, Bird (next season), Sykes, Mehmeti, Bell, Wells, Cornick and Mebude all morecthan capable of stepping in with no huge drop off in quality plus the youngsters close to the first team I.e. Benarous, Murphy, Stokes etc we are in a strong position moving forward
  5. We've never been so blessed in Central Midfield to be honest. James, Williams, TGH, Knight plus Bird from next season with the young ones also pushing on
  6. If so he wouldn't be that arsed about being here in the first place?
  7. In fairness at the point he signed he deserved to be a top earner so if that's the going rate then fair play to him. Agree with others that since NP left he hasn't been at it and needs to switch back on
  8. Would imagine Manning is a factor in him coming here now so if all goes well and he picks up then no reason to believe he wouldn't join in the summer.
  9. Wasn't at all impressed when NP was moved on but I thought last night we played some excellent football, kept it well and moved them around to create openings and were generally pretty dominant against a side that will be there or thereabouts in terms of top 6 at the end of the season. Most importantly I actually enjoyed the game which even though I was a Pearson fan I could rarely say was the case whilst he was here, Mannings coaching ability is clearly starting to have an impact and the players are taking it on board. Mehmeti's dribbling skills when running at the full back and natural ability to know where the ball is without looking at it was excellent, only Alex Scott did this better in recent memory. If he carries on in this manner he could be a huge player in the 2nd half of the season. Was also nice to see Vyner back to his best last night after a shaky few weeks. 4 points in the next two games and we are bang in contention for the play offs
  10. In fairness and as an overall statement rather than just for tonights game if we werent expecting different performances then we shouldn't have made the change. I thought we looked decent tonight and matched a more than decent team for most of the game, they scored a worldie and we missed the better chances we made, it feels like we have a bit of a glass ceiling where we're never going to be able to beat the bigger / parachute clubs regardless of who's in charge or how well coached we are because we just don't have the same quality to be able to lay a glove on these teams.
  11. He's got a decent record wherever he's been so happy to give the guy a chance but to say we've not worked on our attacking gameplan when we are playing a team in the bottom 3 is mind-boggling for me. Considering we have the 2nd best defensive record in the league surely that's a pretty solid base to start with and we should've focused on how we intend to score goals this week?
  12. That wasn't his assistant in fairness just someone with the same name that Barton decided to have a digital row with. Not withstanding that though the fact that the players were clearly fully bought into NP's methods could make it difficult although you would hope that the principles and culture he set would mean they at least give it their all out of professional pride
  13. Thought he spoke really well at the press conference but in front of the players it was a bit awkward. Hopefully it would be different without the camera's is all I'll say! And the videos above of Flemming show why he was such a respected character for fans and players...a real loss for the club
  14. In fairness Conway is better than most in our league
