  1. That's good..nightmare on M5 Bank Holiday Monday!!!
  2. What a well grounded guy...great interests outside football!! Be great as one of your favoured guests round the dinner table...
  3. Not received much praise over the past 12 games but how my confidence in him has changed. He is very good positionally..and just watching the longer highlights from yesterday he was drawn to the near post but when the ball was switched to the far side he sped across the goal to block a shot at the other. Minutes later he came well out of goal to reach a high ball cleanly amongst a melee of players. Quick and decisive...becoming a really goalie ... and really beginning to appreciate his strengths and of late, few weaknesses.
  4. Felt he was a yard inside.
  5. It's not the questions...it's all about the answers and I for one yet again found NP's answers great..he's a clever bloke with good understanding of what is important for the men he manages....be it from the academy through to the most experiences.
  6. Got tickets n coach yesterday after coach being advertised as sold out the day before...putting on extras? Selling more tickets? Not been on the coach to away games for 60 years!!!!
  7. But if this was imminent why let Bajic go...not good in only the only appearance I have seen but if on 3 Yr contract he needs to be part of first team squad after Bentley. Another lot of dosh not giving the returns we wanted?
  8. Basically you are only saying women's football is rubbish as no doubt you would go to watch the men in all weathers. So right on it is inappropriate!!
  9. Not far off I don't think....Amy club scouting him today would have snapped him up there n then..
  10. Said it before but HNM has mostly been used as a defensive midfielder...hardly ever at the front where he is freer to express his skills and flair and energy. We will see where he is played when he heads off to wherever...
  11. Strange as it may seem I'd be reluctant to encourage Wells to leave..think we have seen a very much better player this season (utilising his skills more, got belief in himself back) and we do need to retain some experience. By all accounts Pearson has praised him highly, Conway says he's been hugely supportive..and watching him support the team from the touchline suggests he still really feels and is committed to supporting his team mates.
  12. That was Big challenge for Low....he was left so exposed with no-one near him to encourage, support and cover him.

    Pearson

    What I really like about NP is that after games he reports it honestly and very much as most fans saw it. None of the bull......as most managers give..and many of our own managers included...who often took us for mugs n were more keen to justify their own innocence in failure!!
  14. Not sure this is different from any other club in the championship!
  15. What is great is how we can all see that NP actually plays people in form. Keeps them in the team until has to decide otherwise...but most importantly does not hang around making those decisions when needed!
  16. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/62897652 ...but can he persuade this lad to join us?
  17. Did request something along these lines several years ago...currently limited to 'come on you reds' and 'drink up thee cider' n few other very obvious ones...boring n frustrating for me...
  18. Won't do any harm n could increase everyone's involvement and raise the atmosphere!
  19. Agree with the poster..often haven't a clue what is being sung..may sound good but discerning the words is often difficult. Did see the Bristol Bath match last Saturday...and hearing the rising sound of BRISTOL...very effective and created good sound....something simple can be equally as effective as songs adapted and unknown to many!!
