  1. To say “it went right off” at half time would be an understatement.
  2. I love that there seems to be a game a night in the run up to Christmas. When the Sky Sports Christmas snowman starts popping up, you know the festive season has started.
  3. Ha I’ve had my fingers burned by not doing exactly that!
  4. Prince2 is a methodology containing a number of processes and underpinning principles. It’s not a process in itself. To translate into football terms, football management would be the methodology, and coaching would be a process - and there’s no one signing cowboys who don’t have evidence of coaching through their recognised coaching qualifications. Theres only one company in the world who I can think of that seemingly have no formal internal process, and that’s Valve. They don’t need to, because the Steam platform makes them billions through its mere existence. Even your mate Elons Tesla will have a tonne of processes and methodology that it follows.
  5. I like the colour blue. Green though. Urgh. While I love green scenery, anything else that is green is an abomination and should be destroyed,
  6. I think this first appeared on here in the summer, and it’s odd now as it was then. It smells, not just because it’s the North, but because of the local authorities pursuit of a cpo.
  7. Two very different journeys to where they are in terms of Bristol City appointment. Not sure a comparison is that telling either way.
  8. Unless he has a start like Benny, I’m sure fans will give him plenty of time.
  9. While I don’t think it’s fair on him, I think the wider point is, as with any job on the planet, if your relatively inexperienced in a role, your not really in a strong position to enact any/all the deviations you’d like from the strategy set from above. I guess it all depends on his remit. Do I think he’ll tolerate being told who to pick, no probably not. Do I think there’s other areas where he’ll acquiesce to those above, yes. I think you’d have to be a massive “name” to do otherwise with the latter in the modern game.
  10. The records will show a Jackson hatrick rather than the Spurs performance, which is tragic.
  11. Oh wow - and I suspect that’s not the last red
  12. I have child a with a Spurs kit on, child b with a Chelsea kit on. I wish I’d filmed their reactions to this, absolutely brutal to each other There’s going to be serious tears if Spurs edge this
  13. Fastest first half I can remember. It’s had everything
  14. Maybe he’s an absolute nobody, but sod it, I’ll give the guy a year of full support at a minimum- that’s 2 windows and ample time to improve what is a squad that should be top* *As stated by the hierarchy.
  15. He’s lying, because the only person Ian Gay finds exciting, is himself. And while I think the club is run by absolute morons, they aren’t moronic enough to appoint that guy.
  16. I do, mainly because it would mean they’d be looking to spend money as players inevitably leave, or on their return to the Prem - think nest egg. They’re our number 1 customer.
  17. I’ve got ahead of myself and based it on next seasons Prem fixtures…
  18. Incredibly risky move for him. Going great guns at Oxford, to delivering premier league football within 23 games.
  19. Not sure he was the “same” player after injury. Very much the case with O’Dowda also, although it could also be that LJ coached the flair out of them.
  20. Problem with Max, is that goalkeepers really are expected to be as capable on the ball as the rest of defence these days, and it does sometimes highlight a weakness, however we’re seeing this with elite players as well so it’s not just him. Could we do better? Probably not worth it within a limited budget. Sure he’s let in a couple of soft goals recently, but I don’t buy into the view that he regularly costs points. When you’re in a position where there’s nowhere to hide, anything less than perfect every game is probably going to cost a goal, and that’s an incredibly high bar to maintain.
  21. I remember thinking the same when he was here on loan as a player.
  22. 3. Bundesliga? Ayyye macerena
  23. Thing is, if you have a good track record in the Bundesliga, why on Earth would you fancy a middle of the road championship club?
