  1. To be fair, Dasilva stuck out a little leg there and almost managed to stop the cross into the box. Normally, he isn't anywhere near the cross.....
  2. If only there was a manager from the Premiership available who has just been sacked...
  3. Well with @Fordy62 I assumed he was trying to denigrate LJ. But with, as you put it, his two dreadful runs, did we not win at home for this many games? Or indeed with any other manager in the history of the club?
  4. I've wanted "Nige" sacked for a long time now. It amazes me how people keep finding positives to praise Nige despite all the evidence. (But of course Covid, no money blah blah blah) But the highlighted bit interests me. Who have we backed "to the hilt" recently? Who has had 16, 17 (I forget to be honest) home games without a win who we have backed? (But Covid, no money, awful squad blah blah blah)
  5. I think their full name was Matthew Taylor Moore Goals Please
  6. Bit weird if he's going to commute from Bristol to Rome every day.
  7. I think after referees saw Tomlin's effort they decided there wasn't much point awarding them to us. ?️
  8. Obviously a lot of people have made up their minds on Semenyo. As have I. We will get our record transfer fee for Semenyo.
  9. You can ban people from forums? Hmmm....
  10. I think exactly this. They cannot award promotion and relegation based on current standings. Imagine the legal cases by teams relegated! Bit annoying as it means Villa get another year of PL funding.
  11. Were you sat in a hospital clinic or GP practice at the time? ?
  12. I'm not too bothered about this as I live in the Forest of Dean and we do self-isolation by design. #MiserableBuggers #AlwaysSneezeOnTheOtherSideOfTheBridge
  13. I didn't grow up. "rush backs" is how I remember it. Anyone could be the goalie but the person nearest the jumpers was the goalie. That is, you couldn't randomly decide to use your hands just because... Never heard of "drop back" goalies.
  14. OK, here's some stats. In the last five games home and away we have 8 points. Brentford, in 11th, have amassed less points. The bottom 8 teams have amassed less points. It simply isn't true that we are in relegation form. But, off you go, and find your scapegoat.
  15. And play the second team against Bolton? I know we have strength in depth but....
  16. I don't mean this in a nasty way but you were comfortably the worse team I've seen at AG this season. You seemed to be really lightweight up front and, what amazed me most, was that even at 2-0 down in the last 10 minutes there was no especial urgency from your team to attack us. Very strange tactics. You will of course finish mid table (ish) so nothing much to worry about.
  17. All I can see from that map is that the Southern Welsh come from dementia. And you seem to be suggesting that the Scots come from the irony age. Irrespective, God might come from Yorkshire but when He goes on holiday he goes to Somerset. A magnificent 2-0 win for us.
  18. These are eactly my thoughts. If Derby score first they will win 0 - 4
  19. I was using typical British phlegmatic understatement. My wife has just said "It's only a game". Does anyone know the grounds for justifiable homicide?
  20. Watch the highlights on Sky and you can see that Derby clearly are firing on all cylinders. They absolutely murdered Ipswich. 61% possession, 23 shots to 5, 4 corners to none. And Ipswich won with a bad mistake by the Derby keeper with 1 of their 2 shots on target. Derby will be a really tough game on Saturday.
  21. I'm quite disappointed Checked at half time and was delighted. Can't watch BBC web texts as too nervous so left it until 10pm to check the result....
  22. Hmmm, I might be a little miffed if I was a Burton fan. Abraham certainly seemed to be using a lot of physical pressure on their defender for the winner. It's the sort of tackle that you feel a big team always gets the decision and the minnow (usually us) gets done over. We need Matthews back and fit. All of Burton's attacks came down their left. Probably deliberately.
  23. Congratulations to Rovers. Back to back promotions is impressive. I can't see us doing that.
