  1. Well done Major, for finding this photo of Ian Dowie's more handsome brother.
  2. Since the draw I've been worried that the Man U game would affect us, but that doesn't seem to have been the case. Hopefully LJ is making the players aware that keeping focussed on the league gives them the chance of playing Man U twice again next season, along with Man City, Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal etc.etc.
  3. Fly in the ointment time - remember that 2-0 is a dangerous scoreline!
  4. The opposition teams scare me almost every week! Think we have done remarkably well in recent weeks, despite our injury issues, but keep worrying that the injury problems will catch up with us before too long, but hope the team keep proving me wrong!
  5. The way we were playing up to the point they went 2-0 up, you could never have seen us getting back into the game, let alone going on to win. There is obviously something about this squad for them to be able to turn it around the way they did.
  6. Have read a few suggesting we were/are in a slump. Coming into this month how many would have happily taken 7 points from the 4 games in November that included away at Wednesday and Hull and home against Cardiff? Makes the Preston game even more frustrating and annoying.
  7. International break again doing us no favours. On a good run before the last break but since it we seem to be unable to come out of the blocks quickly from the start. Not helped by mounting injuries causing LJ go have to compromise on team selections.
  8. Sorry about that Robin - I thought I had waited long enough from the final whistle to avoid anyone getting a heart attack.
  9. FFS!!!!! Just wanted to post that, as I was getting withdrawal symptoms from the lack of FFSs on this season's match day threads. Good point - well done lads.
  10. Probably the last traditional old big ground ? The "new" cantilever stand was, I think, built for the 66 World Cup and at the time was state of the art engineering design. Still impressive and imposing when you go into the ground.
  11. Is that the Welsh spelling of the Welsh capital on their road signs?
  12. I have a feeling that if we are going to be challenging at the top end of the abel we could be saying that a lot over the remainder of the season.
  13. What a cracking result. What with injuries and then Wright's suspension this week, Cardiff are not the team you want to be facing.Says a lot about how far this team has come this season to get the win. Well done to the players and LJ. The longer this continues the more we need to look forward to ordering large supplies of the Major's oil, as the sharp end of the season might just get a bit tense!
