  1. If the Bionic Man is ever re-made, will the role be given to Wilbs? 3 games in a week? Surely it should be Djuric & Taylor up front? If this goes wrong today.............oh dear.... COYR!!
  2. Can't see anything other than a convincing 90min performance, some structure/formation, discipline etc being enough to pacify those going today. Undoubtedly the team has quality but seem unable (unwilling even..?) to put this together for 2 halves. If we go behind, i dread to think what the atmosphere will be like - and then it becomes about determination, resolve, character, desire....throw into the mix the team's current mental fragility under pressure and it could, could be, a tinderbox. That said, we have to use the seriousness of the current situation to best advantage, time for round pegs & round holes, a formation to take the game to Burton, not merely contain them, and go out there with a commitment to get the job done. Play with a freedom, a passion....something that says 'we're here to play football and here to win'... A win, 2-0, 3-1, is a must i feel today. Along with a performance. 2 up front please, no messing around. 3 at the back, 5 across the middle, play with intent & width. Start the game at pace, leave everything on the pitch at the end. No excuses. COYR!
  3. Perhaps they just need to employ their centre half as a striker, after all he managed to dribble past the keeper on Sat to score.....oh hang on, that was an own goal of the highest quality!
  4. 3000 to Newcastle? Each and every one deserves a medal.....the team don't know how lucky they are! I'll be supporting from afar with my daughter today, she's too young to realise...COYR!!
  5. 'My garden shed (my garden shed).. Is bigger than this......'
  6. @havanatopia An extraordinarily passionate, articulate, constructive post, given everything that's gone on in the last week, let alone the season so far, best matchday post... If the team could harness just 10% of the passion & fire & commitment that you write with and the fans support with, through thick and thin, the good and the bad (and at times the downright mediocre)...then it should be odds on for City win today. But part of me, part of me, can see us being frustrated by the Millers, they've got nothing to lose, effectively down already, that if we aren't at least 2 up by half time, then you can imagine the reaction. Today is about desire, 'wanting it', but alot to do with patience, both on the pitch and in the stands. 4-0 up in 20 mins or 1-0 in last minute, i don't care but we simply HAVE to win. Drawing or losing isn't an option today. COYR!
  7. Surely McCarthy is on borrowed time there? Tykes losing 0-2 at home, Mowatt sent off on his debut?
  8. Fair enough but he rectified it. Hell I'm not his biggest fan but at least he did something about it. Maybe Owers was in his ear? COYR!!!
  9. Now we've scored, is it still clueless? Or brave by a manager under severe pressure?
  10. Just rename it the 'Tents R Us' stadium...... And shock horror, your owner isn't a billionaire? Hold the front page! He has a problem with numbers too.
  11. Likewise.... .....although the 4-2 win at trumpton in '96 helped somewhat!
  12. Coming to a pub near you soon with a tape machine and a dodgy microphone that intermittently cuts out, sadly not to empty the bins.....funerals, christenings, barmitvahs....no venue too small...that explains attending the Mem then.
  13. Horrible game, remember it well....totally one sided for 87mins then complete wonder strike to win it....sickening feeling.
  14. Is the net still being used for trawling?!
