  1. It's not though, is it? If we'd gone 6 without winning would you have described them as meaningless?
  2. I was under the (perhaps mistaken) impression that we had 2 or 3 well though of 'keepers coming through the ranks. I presume that would effect any decision on HWR?
  3. I appreciate it's probably not a popular statement on this forum, but I don't think entertainment value has changed all that much. We were and are inconsistent. I don't think the styles of play are as distinct as some would make out, either.
  4. No they ******* won't
  5. No, it was asking for League Cup Preliminary Rounds to be scrapped.
  6. Anyone wishing to donate to CHSW can do so here https://www.justgiving.com/page/bcfc-10yfan-challenge?utm_campaign=lc_frp_share_transaction_fundraiser_page_launched&utm_content=0aa903ca-73da-49f2-b2d1-b2792791e424&utm_medium=email&utm_source=postoffice&utm_term=1711873205588
  7. It's revisionism. He wasn't good enough here.
  8. It wouldn't be like this if Nigel Pearson ran the forum.
  9. But that is irrelevant as the added time displayed is a minimum of x minutes They wasted plenty of time with players rolling round on the floor and got exactly what they deserved.
  10. Pretty much this. I thought Bobby Madley was exceptional on Wednesday, but noticing a referee for a good performance is a rarity. On a more usual basis, the highest compliment I can pay to a referee is that I don't really notice them. I didn't really notice much of Rebecca Welch's performance today - she was only notable because she is a woman.
  11. Huddersfield fans complaining about the penalty/injury time should direct their complaints to their own team - you wouldn't have been in that position but for all of the timewasting.
  12. Everyone loves the Championship so much they all want to stay
  13. Nah, you spread it thin like marmite rather than peanut butter. It's salty, but no overload.
  14. Interesting that Vyner is being picked out for his distribution (83.9% pass success rate according to Footy Stats) when Dickie's pass success rate is only marginally better (84.6%). Also interesting that the phrase "Hollywood pass" has come up. Personally I'm far more forgiving of a misplaced pass that tries to get us moving forward than losing possession fannying around with the ball under pressure across the back line. I liked them both FWIW.
  15. What's so special about the pre Easter period? Why not any other block of a similar number of games?
  16. Clearly he was enjoying the game
  17. I think it suits him having Pring outside him. Likewise Tanner and McCrorie on the other side.
  18. So their best bet is to show up and be absolute dogshit and they might get a point or three.
  19. Absolutely agree. All of our forwards would be better off played in a genuine two. Including Weimann.
