Kyle walker... centre mid

This ref tho.... no idea.

They could do with an overlap. Nothing doing either side

Can't see Trent getting a game in there. It'll be rice and Jude. 3 in front of them and Kane

Is this how Trent usually plays? He's been awful in midfield. Good right back tho.

Painful to watch. Comical pen..... the ref loving the drama, what a cock

He don't half look like John Tracy (younger readers ask yr dad... or granddad)

Pear shaped at the fruit market you say?

Makings?? This is peak OTIB.

Seems to me that points deductions might not be enough of a penalty where the "bigger " clubs are concerned. If Chelsea and Man city might miss out on winning the prem and/or champ league do we think it would make them comply? Nor would fines worry them. If clubs start suing one another there's only going to be one winner. As my dear old mum, retired solicitor, was fond of pointing out - in civil matters...NEVER go to law

They, Malta that is, were WAY better than any of us expected. Every time I thought they'd break down they didn't. They also got themselves up the pitch really well. Yes we lacked creativity and yes it should have been 4-0 but fair play to them. I would have had Palmer on from the start perhaps.

I'm guessing we can't go and actually watch these games at the HPC? only available to watch online?

And check that Compo face...

They have every right not to renew his contract, such is life, but he seemed most annoyed that he couldn't get any clarity on his situation and, in retrospect, his statements and interviews may well have been designed to force Sls hand.

Is there anyone on the horizon? Would explain a lot right now.

I hear you. Going to have to be the mother of all appointments because let's be honest we were all a little bit surprised that Nigel came here in the first place and seemed a great bite of businesss... much will be revealed by who we employ next.

It may well have been as simple as "We're not going to 're new your contract ,for reasons , and we're not giving you any players, do you want to see your contract out or we can fire you and pay you off? " There's always money for the new guy.

I'd be interested in Ralph for sure. Hard done by at saints, got a point to prove.

Someone said Lampard..... ****...that would take the biscuit...that would take the whole packet. Surely not Mr L? Brum ****** Eustace over for Rooney tho soo......

Or are they *******? Not made it on to the beeb yet tho.. # coming for us #

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO He was doing so well

No. Sykes king dickie pring James knight TG Weiman bell Conway or a 4-2-3-1 version of that. Coyr

Given the other threads on the forum all I can say is... god bless 'em....every bloomin horse punching one of 'em Love how they refer to Burton as " a lower league one club" ...beautiful...totally delusional

Yeah I know, but he kept them there for 5 seasons was voted manager of the decade by the EFL in 2015 and "Under Howe's stewardship, Bournemouth won three promotions in six years to win a place in the first tier of English football" so, yeah the money was a joke but he had to use it. Dean Court, capacity 11,307 ffs

Oh yes no doubt !and many more like them, but was it not Howe that galvanised them and coached them initially?
