OJ Simpson dies aged 76

Was subbed at half-time - hopefully planned as you say.

Very good

That's fair. Good reply

I didn't know you could do this! Thanks for the tip

It was a question, which can't really be answered by anyone. We were obviously lied to.

Yes well put. I was just trying to move away from Manning being judged based on the exact wording that JL fed us, which some people are doing. Realistically if you take away the anger of NP going the way he did (of which I'm still cross about), and all the lie's, then I think people would be more accepting of Manning needing time to implement. Yeah, incompetence for sure!!

I haven't made an argument, but thanks.

Not sure where I've made any excuses for anyone. Just asked a question. Where did I say we should be OK with the lies? I'm not OK with the lies, which you'd know if you engaged rather than just assumed. Of course we should hold people to account for failing. My point being for all we know JL and Tin's said to LM, don't worry about this season, just keep us up and focus on next season (that's just an example before you lose the plot), therefore LM's remit will be different to what we've been told. I don't think anyone thinks they were being honest about anything, so yes they should be held to account for lying to us.

Sorry, what? Desperate for what? Was just pointing out that whatever discussions were had between them probably wasn't along the lines of what we were told.

Sorry for late reply, but how do you know this was the remit? Were you in the room with them when he was told this during the recruitment process? Just because JL and BT fed us fans a load of tripe, doesn't mean they said the same to LM.

How do you know what remit Manning was given/accepted? Were you involved in the recruitment process? Do you actually think JL said "you have a top six squad there Liam - challenge for promotion this season or it's failure" and that Manning said "sure where do I sign". You seem to be confusing the rubbish JL tried feeding to us, with actual private discussions held with our new manager.

We went there for lunch on Saturday - totally agree, thought it was excellent. The mussels were fantastic. We also had scallops, then the hake and the sole for mains. All washed down with a lovely bottle of white. Great lunch - we'll be back too!

But it's not instead of. You can do both. Do you really think it's that black and white? Regards the second part, @Harry has already replied to you on this, but I don't think you've acknowledged.

What contradictions?

Sorry, are you saying you disagree with the concept of bringing in players that improve us? And that if we do that we don't bother coaching? It's not one or the other!

So you don't think the success ratio is good enough? Can you name the others that didn't work out (as in lost money on)? By the negative spin of your post, are you saying we should stop buying in young promising players? You'd rather we spent more and only bought established players? They can not work as well as you know, and it's a lot more expensive when they don't work out. It's a very low risk strategy. Not sure what your issue is.

Just because someone doesn't agree with you, it doesn't mean they are saying you can't post an opinion. It work's both ways. It's just disagreement. It's fine.

I had this. It wouldn't recognise my linked family member as a BCFC member. The basket timed out when my constant refreshing wasn't working and tickets were released, so I quickly managed to re-select the tickets that were released, then it all worked!! Very odd.

I saw him at St George's Hall a couple of years ago. He was superb!

If you like your pasta Pete, would give La Panza a go if you haven't already. Quirky little place, but the food is fantastic.

Yes it's unfortunate, but players get injured in training all of the time. Are you suggesting Manning played him despite being told he shouldn't by the medical team? Also, you seem to be suggesting that his ideas should be adopted instantly by the players. Is that realistic?

Yes, Mrs Turnip and I went a few months ago. Was superb. Yes it's expensive but, the food was faultless and a really nice atmosphere and great staff. Well worth it

What a great contribution....

So are these stats an example of a trend / common theme? Or have you picked the worst one's you could find?
