Numero Uno

When you look at the players Pearson has managed he will know talent when he sees it. It’s a great example of perseverance with a player when it would have been easy to say “he’ll never get it”……

Yeah, Shrewsbury paying double the wages and four or five times the attendance of Sunderland too……

Antoine’s “issue” was he was incredibly raw from a non-Academy background and would have literally needed to learn the tactical side of football required at pro level from scratch. He’s just needed more time than most to get up to speed but the raw ability he has cannot be coached. We just need to guide him how to get the best out of it!!

Top quality from Mane, would have been criminal not to finish after that pass……

Well he must do to a point because he became a millionaire on the back of this club or at least it’s owner anyway……….

I think you did jury service once and now you think you are Michael Mansfield QC???

This years bizarre post winner is………

If the audio is proven to be him then regardless of whether the CPS have enough to prosecute he has no place in football anyway.

Steady on………

Sometimes with these young ‘un’s it is literally a case of persevering until the penny drops. There will be a lot of posters with egg on face the way Antoine is going…..

So gutted for them……….?

Ideal result for us albeit I think we are almost there anyway. That will kill Birmingham, 2-0 up with 6 to go…

2-2.

Think you need to go on their forum and put many of their fans right then because they don't seem to see him in as positive a light as you do............

Yes, when you are winning games in spite of the performances in the end you stop winning games because the performances are shite and that exactly what happened to us last season. Therefore in the end, with the vast majority of teams, the total points you get will not be far off the level of performances you put in.

Winning games despite getting absolutely battered to **** every week which is why, as I stated on another thread, the points haul will always reflect the performances in the end.

The one on Cam Pring for their equaliser…….

In the end the points haul will always catch up with or limited by the performances. We found this out last season.

Posh 2-0 down…:..:

Look at Pearson’s recent interviews and I think he is becoming more relaxed about things because he can see the lads putting the plan into practice. Individual errors are killing us right now but his job is to see beyond that. We are improving significantly no doubt about it.

Pearson will be fuming this evening and I’m sure would have said his piece in the dressing room after. I don’t think he has a lot of time for “brain dead”. These lads are professionals and need to start acting like it if they want a longer term career here. We score two very good goals that we had to work for, they are literally handed two goals on a plate by us. Undeniably we are heading in the right direction though………

Behave, once the shot comes in he is paid to deal with it.

If he parries it where he should have there is nothing to close down.

Shit goalkeeping. Sorry, don’t want the kid to make mistakes but that was ******* crap.

Luckily we don't have an Owner that does daft things on a whim.......................... I'm sure it's just a wind-up though.
