  1. This is what I love about football, it's all about opinions! All the guys who watched it in the pub with me thought Joe had a shocker...
  2. Always dangerous to post a smug reply to your own post about how we can beat the top teams...
  3. Not a volley, bog standard one on one, would have loved to see it end up in the onion bag...
  4. Oh yes, that was a great Arabs team, McAlpine, Hegarty, Narey, Milne, Sturrock, Dodds, Ray Stewart... etc etc. Not a very well known fact but Dundee Utd are the only team to have played Barcelona in Europe and never lost to them, played 4 won 4 !! They played them in the 1966/67 Fairs Cup and the 1987 UEFA Cup. Now, people who know me on here are aware that I'm also a pretty big Jags fan (Partick Thistle) for very good reasons. Anyway, I've been to Tannadice a few times to watch Dundee U vs Jags and the Utd fans I've encountered are horrible types, real big chip on their shoulders because they aren't from Glasgow - but you can never deny that team they had in the late eighties was top notch...
  5. Why oops? 2-2 draw away at Ipswich is anything but pathetic. Love how people just jump on the team the moment we concede with constructive comments like 'pathetic'
  6. Don't disagree entirely mate, but no team in the world will keep a clean sheet in every single game. As soon as we concede we get 'FFS' and 'pathetic' posted immediately....sometimes some goals are unstoppable...
  7. Always good to check your own post when you pick someone up for a spelling mistake!!! 'New'??! 'Knew??'
  8. One Direction replacement for the wise one who left recently?!
  9. Loved the early doors comment on the commentary: 'well to Rovers league two is the BIG league after the last couple of years...' Superb! Then I went back to watching the grass grow and the paint dry....
  10. Yep, every team I ever played for - from school to good levels of local football - we always had a player on each post at corners. It's a very simple defensive discipline and it amazes me how many pro teams concede goals from corners and free kicks that simply wouldn't have gone in if they defended their posts. Oh well, I'll leave it to the professional managers, they obviously know better....
  11. Albert really does seem to be a great guy who fully realises that we gave him his big chance to progress in the game. I loved all his interviews, he came across a genuine bloke who loved our club and loved playing for the fans. Today shows he probably does love us and he didn't rule out a return to BCFC in today's match programme! Smashing goal from JB, similar to his strike against Roverzzz in the JPT, and what a miss by BR!!! All in all though, three points, that's all that matters....
  12. Wow! Superb result against a team that should be right up there at the end of the season...great stuff and a brill confidence boost!
  13. Pitman has notched for the table toppers against PNE, going over old ground I know, but will never understand the criticism he has received on here...whilst and after he was with us. Top poacher at this level....
  14. Yep, but AshtonGreat said "whose idea was it to sign Hamar (sic) ?" So obviously he was to blame??!! Ps: I agree with you
  15. Whatever you want mate, just don't want people to start saying we are going down etc, cos it's August...
  16. That was tough to take, going in at one down, but please don't over-react if we lose again. We are in a bl**dy difficult division, yes we walked League One last season but did the people on here who predicted we'd go straight up again truly believe that?! Working in football brings unbelievable pressure and I'm glad that the views of everyone on here represent a tiny minority of our fanbase. If all our fans had the same views as some on here then our management team would simply break under the expectation levels. When I'm talking with the chaps and chapesses in the pub a great sense of realism is evident, and I still think, as I've said all along, that we'll finish 17th, and that would be brill! We'll win a few, we'll lose a few, we'll draw a few - last season was amazing, one of the best in our history. Enjoy the memories when you can but realise the next nine months will be tough....
  17. If you mean Hamer, it was the club's idea/decision. Hardly his fault that one.....
  18. Yep and Sheffield Utd lost 4-0 in division 3! No team wins every game, we need to lighten up and have fun! Pompey are in division 4 but 17,000 of them turned out today! There's some seriously horrible things happening in the world, and a 2-0 defeat ain't one of them. Let's get behind our boys and have fun!
  19. Just a bit of a reality check today by the sounds of it. No need to over-react. We were never going to emulate last season's results but we have to stick by the guys who gave us so many precious memories and let them grow into a higher division. As Swindon found out last season, nothing is won or lost before Xmas and it isn't even mid August yet! Stay positive and happy - we're in a tough division and there will be some great highs and dreadful lows coming up. I'm going to try and enjoy it......
