  1. I think that's the thing though. It's been heavily weighted to implying that "coaches win matches, players lose them" since the turn of the year at least. Three games unbeaten (and Max saving us from a tanking in two of them) may have given him a chance to relax a little, but sadly I've no faith in him to offer anything different moving forward as soon as we start to concede again. And yes, I accept writing him off with seemingly no chance of redemption may be harsh, but I genuinely believe his tenure has been that bad. The quicker it ends the better.
  2. Rumour has it he started the petition to get the Dolman Stand built so his descendants didn't have to witness Manningball...!
  3. Yeah, but 5 of those 8 were gert Teds in the away end...
  4. Oh, shut it with the logical replies ffs.
  5. I think they were the parts of the pitch that would be re-turfed at various times due to wear, as you suggest.
  6. Haven't seen either of these pics before that I can recall. Thanks for the share. Love things like this.
  7. Well.....one was dire and one is Dire...other than that.....
  8. This. Never a fan of his football, but if ever there was a manager/club marriage made in heaven it was him and Wimbledon.
  9. Whilst I agree, the desired split is more decent than poor. The reality is that the pendulum swings sooooo far the other way that it becomes impossible to kind of accept that. Today was just more of the same and we can thank Max for the point. It was just a dire performance. All that rubbish on the pitch... And a fair amount of litter too!
  10. He has improved massively, but he still needs to work on his judgment when releasing the ball (Friday to Zak was an extreme example but not the first time he's put his defence under pressure) and also his command of the 6 yard box. All too often the ball passes through that area without him claiming it. However, as said, it's still a massive improvement from where he was, so hopefully he can improve on these things too.
  11. Because Roy's (now) high profile and tanked in Bristol....
  12. What on Earth has she/he done to you to deserve this?!? I'm sure they didn't mean to upset you - you should give them another chance to make up for it!
  13. Yeah, but at least with LJ he said it with emotion, unlike the great automaton that's currently in situ.
  14. Genuine question... Is that England or the UK... Because if it's the former then Rangers and Celtic may well be circling.
  15. Considering how economical with the truth they've been lately it's probably Seb returning from his loan in Wales.
  16. It's a good point. However I guess it does allow for seat moves still, so someone can purchase your seat if they are an existing South Stand STH
  17. Really? What on earth makes you think he'd find passion in his voice to commentate on horses? Cricket, perhaps.... As opposed to..........? You don't need the language to change for that!
  18. Don't feel that you have to justify yourself Liam. You just keep doing you.....
  19. Thanks for the summary. I switched off after 2:30 when asked "The last few weeks have seen results drop away..... Have you seen enough in our performances to assure you that results will turn around again?". I gave him until the second word of his answer, which started "Yeah, definitely...." and exited immediately because I knew that what would follow would be either dishonest or delusional. Another thing of note for me was that he's been banging on about getting the players "on the grass" to work on the processes and behaviours (), and so with an international break they've worked on getting the players fit physically and mentally and "done some work on tactics". Surely this should've been the ideal time to focus on the tactical side. There were no matches that the players had to recover physically from etc, so why, when given time to work on tactics does he relegate them to an "also" afterthought?!?
  20. Well that would involve attacking, so I may stretch to he tries to not lose every game, I guess!
  21. Do you think we could borrow them? Not being able to see a thing at the match is a really attractive proposition right now!
  22. Depends if Man City were managed by Dumblebore.
  23. When will they learn that you can't just throw a "catchy" slogan out there without a hashtag preceding it!

    Saw the title and thought "Bloody hell they're getting desperate for season ticket renewals!"
  25. Yep. Much more despondent now. We've gone from being on the cusp of something to whatever fresh hell this is. And it was all so unnecessary.
