  1. Funny how players suddenly seem to find space in the box when the delivery improves.
  2. I agree with that stupid song, who on earth thought that was ever a good idea? I like the bounce though, especially on a cold day, I often wish they would wait until the game is obviously won though.
  3. One thing I think looks different about our set up is the roles of Manning and Hogg. It has seemed common over the years that the Manager stays slightly away from the players, an has a more serious role, where as the coach is that link between the players and the Manager. Looking at these videos, Hogg looks the more serious and business like of the two while Manning is all smiles, chatting and joking with the players.
  4. It's not nailed on though is it kid? Unless things have changed since Wednesday.........
  5. How long do you have to do something before it becomes synonymous with your fanbase? I wonder if there were fans in the '60's moaning that Drink up thee cider, "has nothing to do with football and is making us look like embarrassing stereotypes"?
  6. Not the way it was sung the other week it wasn't. Anyway @steviestevieneville was talking about "hard core ultras", my point was that "bubbles" doesn't come into that category either.
  7. Well the West Ham fans can't talk, those pathetic bubble machines look like something from a kids party and the song that goes with it is possibly the most cringe worthy after that Irene dirge. I wouldn't worry about what opposition fans think, they are hardly going to stand and applaud us are they?
  8. What because we aren't dumb enough to turn our backs on the game?
  9. Straight into the first team? Really? That's a leap.
  10. Actual footage of him when the bouncing starts.
  11. Rob A's first full session for a while too. Hopefully some U21 minutes for him soon.
  12. When their attendance drops back down to its usual sub 8k, the one thing that won't be able to bring themselves to say is "ah well the Shit were at home so that will have affected our crowd". The stupid thing is, they might have kept some of the floating voters if they had thought about it. Take a leaf out of our book, £10 an adult £5 a kid in our new "stand", but no, they are charging pretty much the same as we are for a Championship game against a side with a reasonably high profile. It's airs and graces again no matter who is in charge, they can't bring themselves to think about how they could potentially pull in a few extra supporters by recognising that they are less of a draw so need to make themselves more attractive.
  13. Do people still believe this is a thing?
  14. Apparently has been "beasting it" in the gym, so know wonder he looks so big. A friend of mine who is an Aberdeen supporter said he hardly recognised him the other night, he's filled out that much.
  15. I think VAR has highlighted some of grey areas in the rules. Offside for example would only be given where it was clear and obvious, and even when people analysed it after they would often say, "well, he's level at best, but it's difficult for the linesman". Now it's taken apart frame by frame and that apparently means it's now "obviously offside", which it never was. To me, if it's "clear and obvious" the decision was wrong then it should take 15-30 seconds to show that. If it takes longer then it's not clear and obvious (the original reason for VAR), and the game should continue.
  16. The master plan could be Twine until the Summer while we integrate these two and save ourselves £4/5m? Or we at least look less desperate to Burnley in our negotiations?
  17. Nobody has mentioned Murphy, where does he fit in to this as he looks a similar player.
  18. Thanks, it was so easy last time I couldn't work out what I was missing, but all sorted now.
  19. Don't worry mate, if the West Ham game is anything to go by, you can get any old ticket and stand on the stairs between the blocks.
  20. Could you point it for those of us who have only worked on IT systems for 30 years?
  21. So having watched the highlights I am now trying to match these descriptions to the goals............... nope, he must have been at a different game. Offside, definitely if you don't know the rule is "when the ball is kicked", penalty? Well it wasn't malicious but a tangle of legs that stopped the guy from getting on the end of cross. Handball? The ball was never off the ground in the whole move. Any coincidence that all four goals came at the end which looks like it was lit through the branches of trees in autumn? They have added lights under the "stand" but bizarrely it just makes the rest of the pitch look like it's in shadow.
  22. I can't, I am already holding Jose Casa-Grande's.
  23. They seem to have missed the section between sections that was in use Tuesday night. Are they not selling tickets for that part this time?
