Thanks for that!

What is NFC?

If I can't attend a game and want to give my ticket to someone else, but they don't have a smartphone, what then?

Nige has said several times that he isn't going to sign players for the sake of it, only if they're better than what we have. I'm struggling to name a player that he's better than.

Perhaps they don't use the internet.......................

I really hope for Semenyo's sake that Palace do come in for him. Whilst he will undoubtedly get a lot more money, which I totally understand, I can't believe that playing for Bournemouth is the "Premiership Dream" that a lot of players aspire to.

Yeah, totally agree with this. I can't remember the last time we had a striker with pace and power, and will probably be a long time until we see one again.

Thank you for that considered response. I DO get where you're coming from, but at the same time still struggle with how people are so easily offended these days. Having said that, I will readily admit to being of the generation that grew up during the 1970's - a decade where stereotypes were one of the main sources of humour/comedy, so accept that I'm probably very "out of date!"

Not necessarily. Nothing wrong with being gay, but pisstake worthy? Maybe, Let's say I had a friend (John) who has just had an ear operation. I'm sat in the pub with some other friends, and in walks John with a bandage wrapped around his head. "look out, Osama Bin Laden has just walked in" I shout. Now, whether you would find that funny or not, would you argue that I am morally wrong to have made that comment? Not trying to be controversial, but this is where I struggle when people start to take offence, as I wouldn't see anything wrong with the above scenario. Similarly, if John walked into the pub wearing a pink shirt and I said "backs to the wall lads", I struggle to see why that would be offensive rather than funny. Totally different context to chanting at a football match I agree, so maybe I'm straying from the original point a bit, but I am genuinely interested in how people actually perceive the meaning of homophobia to be.

Thanks for that explanation. However, as most people's comments seem to be based on a moral stance rather than a legal stance, I am still interested to know what those people's interpretation of homophobia is in relation to calling straight people gay names.

A genuine question............what is homophobia? I totally understand that to persecute a gay person, either by words or actions, is clearly homophobic, but if for example one were to call a straight person a queer, or similar, I struggle to see how that falls under the homophobia label.

Yes, and for a kit we could take the red from our kit and the white from theirs.

Ha ha ha ha ha.........................................How many more decades do we give?

I don't think anyone is denying that point. However, some of us aren't prepared to fall headlong into League 1 while he does it. And my brain works fine thanks.

What a totally pompous response. Self gratification on a completely different level.

Apparently it's due to a shortage of Shetland Ponies. Too many high horses around. * Disclaimer * I would like to apologise to any Shetland Ponies that may be reading this, or anybody else that feels the need to take offence on their behalf.

No, it really isn't #politicalcorrectnessraisesit'sheadagain

I really want to be positive, as I'm sure we all do, and of course I'll be there on Saturday cheering the team on. BUT............I really do worry that if we keep hiding behind excuses, we're risking sleepwalking into relegation.

But that's the relevant bit isn't it.

Pearson is a "name" nothing more. Any other manager that wasn't a "name" would have 90% of the fan base calling for his sacking by now.

Please

I don't think we have it in us to play for a draw, and quite right too IMO. We know that we can beat anyone in this league, we just need everybody on form, as we're not strong enough to carry passengers. And cut out the stupid bloody mistakes!!

OK, I don't do twitter so wouldn't know. However, even though there are other factors to consider, surely the win ratio is the most relevant factor of all?

Oh I see......I'm being insulted for having an opinion. Fair enough.
