Yes. No. Pot. To. Piss. In.

I'm knackered watching that!

Nope, not in all in cases, but I don’t expect him to get the “best”, I expect him to get acceptable levels out of them, and I think he does that. I look at Vyner and think he’s getting way better performances out of him, as an example. I look at Weimann this season and maybe not…but last season he did. But overall I’m happy with how he’s doing.

I blame my Physics Teacher then!

So you do understand the context, but then make no allowance for it. Its a squad of academy youngsters, a few lower league signings (one for a fee, one for compo) and then a few older freebies on top of the players that were still under contract…which he’s gradually managed to remove several from an extortionate wage bill. But, as my previous post, fine if that’s your opinion.

Anyway, no Crooks or Mowatt in starting xi Ben’s not so much thuggery in their MF!

Again, no context applied by you. Hey-ho. All about opinions.

The MTD seems to have gone hot ???

4-2 SU

Wot a goal Connor Whickham

I’ve been invited… …and I was on earlier this season. So, I completed the hatrick…Paul Binning / Exiled Robin was the first to do it though. #mediawhore

Joe Bryan’s goal v Man Utd was the purest strike I’ve witnessed live. Top 4 goals I’ve ever seen live, in no order. Bryan v Man Utd Mann v Forest Newman v Newport Tomlin v Huddersfield (or was it Wednesday?)

Everyone was watching the cricket! Boy, we made hard work after the opening partnership!

I do think the ref played a huge contributing factor to the game descending into players getting wound up. I know you’ll say that’s not his fault, but his poor decision making, allowing players to get away stuff lead to a decline in players feeling they were being dealt with fairly. When that happens tensions rise, and you then see tackles like Norwood and then Tanners. Go back to Luton. We had a succession of decisions go against us in the 5-10 mins before Sykes flew in. The ref has a responsibility to keep the players under control. He failed through his awful decision making. When you played I bet you thought “well if he got away with that, do can I”.

It’s not atrocious if you apply some context to it!!!! ??

Had a really good spell at Wycombe a few years back.

Whilst Naismith made some individual mistakes and criticised for it, it is just one aspect of how we were playing and what we have missed is his speed at moving the ball between the lines. I only referenced this and the word “penetration” (or lack of) a few days ago, and it was pretty much exactly what Nige said in his interview. Only Taylor Harwood-Bellis (Burnley) across the whole of the Champ has made more passes that break the lines than Naismith. Naismith helps Andi play facing forward. Naismith helps us play through the centre of the pitch. Thats not saying Naismith solves all our problems, but him missing is definitely a factor in the way we are playing. We are playing some nice stuff, but a lot more of it is in front of our opponents. They are forcing us wide and hitting percentage crosses. I hope he’s back soon. That doesn’t turn us into a top 6 side overnight, but I do think it improves our effectiveness.

I guess the question I’d be asking is “was it the international break or something else?”. Not saying these are the reasons, but… we lost Matty James ahead of QPR (first game after the break) for 5 games we lost Kal Naismith during the Coventry game (second game back) To a lesser degree we lost Scott and Williams in successive games through yellow card suspensions I think they are a part of it. Naismith not yet back.

I was too…in the open end. I’m so glad that the footage of it was found and restored. I can overlay the colour over the b@w in my mind when I watch it. A beauty.

Agree. plus, how do we know it’s a child (disabled or not) that was offended and reported it to the steward? Some adults don’t like swearing at all, a lot of people hate the c-bomb for example. A complaint suggests the OP was OTT.

Assombalonga might’ve actually been onside also….it was really tight….just looked bad because he’d timed his run well and was well beyond Moore when Moore glanced it into his path. TV view doesn’t help, but remember seeing a different view at the time and I was amazed how tight it was.

I hope he can get more minutes over the next 3 games, and give Nige food for thought post-WC. Nige talks about power and pace, and for me, that’s Cam. He’s 25 in January, so a bit of a late starter at this level, but he can make up for that. I like Jay but I think some of that is thinking back to what he was like when he first came here on loan and the potential he had. He is now fit, has been for some time, but I’m not sure he’s attained the levels I thought he would. So, I’m backtracking! ? With finances so tight, if Cam can get a good set of games under his belt pre and post-WC, then I think Jay is gonna have to up his game to “earn his new contract”. You’d imagine there are gonna be cheaper options in the summer? Reminds me of Howard Moon (Julian Barrett) and it would be a mighty boosht if he continues to play well! I’ll get me coat / poncho!

My first exposure to football swearing was from my dad….home v Liverpool….in the open end with the Liverpool fans, my dad shouts “Mabbutt, you effing fairy”. Cue applause for the Liverpool fans! Went home and told my mum ??? A few seasons back I took him to MK Dons (a) and I’m sure he called one of their players a “pussy”! He denies it, but Joe reckons he did too. So that’s where I get it from (in the right time and place)!

Nice interview, thought about his answers.

Wears white socks though!
