Yep, all the evidence of the last 5 years points to another long wait.

I'm scared that it's me wanting him out that's made us 11 games unbeaten.

I don't think I've ever said on here that I want Pearson out but I did say at the beginning of the season that if we weren't above 18th at the end of year then I think it would be best if he moved on, we weren't above 18th (I think we were 19th) so of course I quietly went about thinking he should probably go, of course as soon as he hadn't met my personal target for him we start playing well and getting results. I can't change my mind because that would just be a knee jerk reaction to what is good form, we had good form before the first international break and then it all came crashing down playing some really bad football (not the worst in the last 3 years but still bad) but I will accept that for the first time in about 5 years this does feel like an upturn that won't just fall apart, of course now I have said that qué a 10 game losing streak. I will forgive him if we finish above 16th. In the meantime I will continue to hope that this form continues

Would you try and take credit if you said we would get a penalty today?

Yeah there defender was on the floor and grabbed JD around the neck ?.

I don't know I tend to start a conversation with "**** off"?.

You do realise that people in there 50s can pick the wrong seat just as much as a someone in there 20s? If they are doing it on purpose then once again we have some pretty ignorant/obnoxious 50yo in our support it's not just limited to "kids".

What I tend to do is pass them the stuff that's in my hand to get my ticket out, once they realise it's going to take a minute to get the ticket out and there is a large queue behind they tend to wave through.

Except last night when it was this security company (hawk security) that we’re wondering around being obnoxious pricks and causing trouble.

They seemed to be acting like the worst kind of door staff for the first 30 mins, walking around bumping into people, pushing them about, trying to be overly officious and IMHO trying to provoke a reaction. Wasn't there a thread on here last week about the quality of stewards, we now seem to have lowered that bar by getting private security intent on picking a fight with fans/supporters/customers/punters (whatever we are this week).

The guy is clearly a parody of himself at this stage. Yeah he lives abroad.

That's relatively new since December, there were flashes at the beginning of the season but we haven't really been consistently competitive in this league for about 5 seasons. All good at the moment.

I like the fact they have overestimated those fees as well, makes it even more damning for them.

Was he ever really more than that here I would say at a guess 99.9% of all games he played in he either got subbed or more likely was the sub.

When a steward is actively stopping a kid from getting to his parent and his parent from getting to the kid it's not really about blame it's about understanding what is clearly going to be an emotional response. I've already said the kid was in the wrong to go on the pitch and I wouldn't mind if the club used this as a case in point and banned them both but as is so often the case with our stewards the response was a complete overreaction and a serious escalation rather calming the situation down.

The major problem I thought the steward created was trying to keep the kid away from his dad, all the steward had to do was invite the dad to accompany his son for a "little chat" and I'm sure it could have all been dealt with much more calmly - separate a child and parent like that and you're always going to cause the kid to panic and the dad to want to protect.

Kid shouldn't have gone on the pitch but that doesn't give the steward to right to grab the kid and basically treat the kid with the same force he would with a 20+ yo.

I hope people that go to football realise when they protests against the rich that they are the rich.

Welcome to elitist Britain in 2023.

What happens to the people that can't afford £75? Now they have to buy a £75 phone, a membership and then they can buy a ticket. Barriers to entry seem to be growing.

What is wrong with some people, I'm all up for an atmosphere with a bit of needle but who thinks it's a good idea to weight a plastic glass full of coins an throw it.

I get it a fraction of a second not 1 or 2 seconds, it’s enough to be off putting.

I wonder where that comes from, I don't recognise that in us.

If she keeps going then that will have to be treated as easy come easy go. Seriously though glad to hear it's working for her.

MGW moved from a prem club to a newly promoted prem club for £25m? that type of move wasn't explicitly covered but seems to fit close enough to a lower prem team buying someone.
