Swansea City at home match thread
Red_Alligator replied to Jerseybean's topic in The Havanatopia Match Day Archive
Goals win football matches. Well done lads, on a much needed win, but otherwise unremarkable performance. All with just 27% of the possession. Methinks young Manning may just have lost his ball. Onward we march (into the top six). Obviously. -
Manning's under development, he needs more time
Red_Alligator replied to reddogkev's topic in Football Chat
I applaud my fellow Reds who travel away on a regular basis, especially given recent form and the not inconsiderable cost in time, money and resilience. However, I will say that it goes some way to explaining why this level of support and loyalty has allowed those in charge to continually fall short of the targets which they themselves have publicly set, regardless of what the expectations or aspirations of the fan base might be. COYR! -
A crumb of comfort in general football terms, if true. If only to bring some lightheartedness to my current malaise regarding issues closer to home and heart.

Here's my article (yet to be scrutinised by the Editor): "Goals Win Football Matches, Points Mean Prizes". TopSixtastic, I'm sure you'll agree!

It's the result that counts. Three points incoming my friend. Manning ball. It's all you need to know. Isn't it?....... -

This Manning ball stuff really is top six material. Yep. I'm sure of it. No, honestly, it is. It's all coming together. If it's good enough to beat West Ham? No, really. -
This is, as said previously, is good business. I hope that this becomes the rule rather than the exception. With the way that football is run financially today, shrewd work in the transfer market (coupled with a successful academy) is probably the only way for clubs like ours to progress. Credit to those involved in both deals today.

I get what you're saying Miah, but in regard to the EP, I think my case remains solid.

Yes. Not surprising that their attitude is often on the sunny/optimistic side, given the positive spin from the local media on almost any story involving them. Contrast with the more negative slant reflected in most of the City stories. I'm sure it's not me. Is it??

I think that that's pretty much the way things work Ajax. -
Still too early to make my mind up regarding young Manning. Team performance and results have been a real mixed bag thus far. As regards his manner in interviews, well he's fine, as far as I can tell. He seems measured and reflective in his responses, which, given some of the plain idiotic phrasing of journalists questions these days, is no bad thing. We'll see....

Your First Pair of "Proper" Football Boots
Red_Alligator replied to downendcity's topic in Football Chat
My first pair of boots were Adidas rip offs from English Leathers in Kingswood. They were black of course, and came boxed, with a stud spanner and one spare stud. The studs were white. -
Will be a big miss and I don't like the sound of "a small tweak, just a few weeks..." - usually becomes much worse, very quickly ! Let's hope young Manning has it exactly right...

Rooney pulling out all the stops - Now Sacked
Red_Alligator replied to Silvio Dante's topic in Football Chat
I reckon the FA have some sort of "cunning plan" to try and produce a young English manager to go on and lead the national team to world domination. Hence the on going recycling of the seemingly hapless Messrs Lampard, Rooney - and of course Johnson - at club level. -
