The polarisation with LJ is with the money spent. For a self confessed ‘coach’ LJ was quick to discard a player and buy / loan a replacement. See the likes of Walsh, Moore, Szmodics, Eisa etc.. NP is not a coach, he’s a manager, yet is getting more from young players and fringe players than LJ could. Ironically, the best we looked under LJ was when he had a smaller squad to play with and had to actually do some coaching. His problem came when when he had multiple choices, and he was then to quick to discard players rather than working with them. NP would give his eye teeth to have half of the funds available to LJ (68 players signed was it?). Instead he’s inherited a problem 5 years in the making, but is expected to sort it all out in 20 months.

Love Misplaced Childhood. It was in the mix along with The Crossing by Big Country for my 5th slot.

Say's above he don't drink, don't smoke..what does he do? Maybe not Goody Two Shoes after all...

Not sure, they're in the divsion below.

Not long to go now. They're up over 40K in an attendance of 47K. Another year or 2 and it will be over 50K but the turnstles weren't counting them in properly...

Hell of a leap from Tallahatcie.

Yeah, that’s what I said.!! Perhaps you should let Toby manage your account. He must be the brains of the outfit.

Not stalking you, no. Just trying to educate pork.

You can’t see that Naismith improves the team? We’ll never agree on on anything will we. Decent ref ?

Fair enough. That’s your opinion, and you’re entitled to it. I thought the ref and the linesman were poor. I’ve watched enough and played enough in the last 50 years to be comfortable with my opinion.

They’re shit. It’s not rocket science. Most refs are poor. Why do you think a premier league ref is doing a championship game? Most refs are shit, they don’t understand the game. Most of them have never played at a decent level. Todays ref has been shunted down a level , because he’s no good.

Do I need to? Can you not understand the difference in watching a game live at the ground, and watching a game on the telly? I can see whatever goes on all over the pitch, you can see what they show you on the box. But fair play if you think the ref was decent. I still think he was shit from my seat in the stadium.

And as I said elsewhere,we all see things different.

So not in the ground then

No, not joking. Perhaps you are impressed with the refs name, rather than his performance. I’m assuming you were not in the ground today? Correct me if I’m wrong. Best ref this season was Madley.

Inconsistent, gave little things like nudges and pulls one minute, then ignored them the next. Gave a foul against Scott in the first half, but missed several similar incidents in the second half, for both teams I’d add.

Don’t know, but it seemed to me that the officials today were not enthused to be there today. The ref was ******* awful, wandering around the pitch, and the Lino in front of the dolman couldn’t keep up with play, let alone what was happening behind him.

From where I was sat in block b it looked like a steward approached the linesman, who then told him to get back over the hoarding. Wish whoever it was all the best, but seemed to me that the officials couldn’t give a shit.

Weird how people see things. I thought the ref was ******* awful.

Bloke's got nothing on Lee Johnson. Where are the "POMO's", "Bomb alley", "Box Entries"...? Pfft, amateur.

Spot on. The most nonsensical appointment ever. I remember being in work when it became clear the DH was going to be the next manager. I must have had a face like thunder because someone said to me "It's only a game"..!! I nearly bit his head off..!!
