Are United the most unlikeable team in English football?

Unfortunately all the potential games are miles away as well. 6 hour round trip on a Tuesday night anyone?

Norwich City away match thread
DaveF replied to Jerseybean's topic in The Havanatopia Match Day Archive
Was sat in home end today (don't ask) right next to the City fans. Home support was dire for such a big match. City fans got praise from the home fans 'much better than Ipswich' etc. General consensus that we're a decent team and probably edged it. Norwich is a VERY friendly away game, despite the away ban of fans and it being a big match for them fans happily mixed in the Coach and Horses near the ground with no issues. Nice to see fans getting on. I may want to mix them but I want that to be my decision. Use a sausage as a breakwater. But I'm nit-picking, on the whole, a very good effort - 7 on 10. Let's make love. -

Owners that attend nearly every match and are proper fans apparently. Though speaking to their fans the owners are very careful with money which stops them properly pushing on. -

Seems to be nonsense about the away pubs thing. Plenty of City fans in the Coach and Horses. -

Of course they do, if they lose tomorrow and Hull win their game and their game in hand they're level on points... -
Would agree with that. Bell had a good spell but tailed off, Pring good in spells but overall not hit the levels expected, not sure he will be on as many shopping lists this summer as last.

That's right, yep. I met him recently and he said he always wanted to play for City as he was a fan, but City never came in for him. Probably could have used him back then? My mother in law!

This match will also be involved in a documentary that is being made about one of their former players, Tony Powell. If you're attending you could immortalised in film.

Looked harsh on the TV but we didn't get any good angles. Surprised so many people are moaning about their time wasting! The win was crucial for them and the two points dropped could see them relegated.

The beard and the potato farmer hat is a wonderful look though...

Huddersfield Town at home match thread
DaveF replied to Jerseybean's topic in The Havanatopia Match Day Archive
Hurry up and blow the final whistle so I can go and watch some paint dry. As I write that we win a pen -
I'm delighted by the recent form but reluctant to get ahead of myself. Leicester and Sunderland missed some absolute sitters and on another day we could have lost both of those games comfortably. 4 of our goals today were the result of comically bad defending, Sunday league stuff. Cautiously moving in the right direction for me, keep this up and we can look forward to next season with a solid foundation.

Leif Davis for England?

Would argue James has made as much if not more difference? James, Knight and Twine is a nice midfield 3.

Plymouth Argyle away match thread
DaveF replied to Jerseybean's topic in The Havanatopia Match Day Archive
Hopefully we can put a solid run now till the end of the season. Sunderland an absolute shambles today and Blackburn who spanked them up as a next two. -
Statistically, we have the easiest last seven games in the division
DaveF replied to Silvio Dante's topic in Football Chat
They're down regardless if they lose, max points they can get currently is 21, lose and it becomes 18 meaning even if everyone above them loses they're still down. Intriguing for me is that Blackburn could go down, awful form and toughest run in. Would be pleased if Blackburn and Birmingham go down. -
Sounds quite pleasant actually...

Bath City now live on TNT 3 - some of our loanees start
DaveF replied to BCFCGav's topic in Football Chat
2-2 now, Bath could really use a win. -
Sounds like you're doing him a disservice a bit. They've scored 5, 6 and 5 goals in their last 3 games (including against the Gas), the manager must be doing something right!

No, it's not an interview with Liam Manning. Henrik Rydstrom has rejected the idea of positional play and embraced a more anarchic structure - winning the Swedish title with Malmo. Quite an interesting read about a rarely utilised way of playing, probably only Malmo and Fluminense doing it currently and having considerable success. https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11096/13097969/henrik-rydstrom-interview-how-malmo-boss-rejected-positional-play-to-become-europes-most-innovative-coach

He suits their one up top style much better than Conway though. Jacob Brown and Kevin Nisbet also ahead of Conway. He's some way down the pecking order and not pulling up any trees this season in our new system so can't see it happening unfortunately.

But playing better football, more youngsters broken through and the fans on-side
