  1. This is where I'm disagreeing and, respectfully, I think your bias has overwhelmed you a bit. I can relate to this, I find myself getting infuriated at literally everything Ayew does even if other players do the same shit and I overlook it. I do relate. But, I'm sorry, Winks has been decent so far under Rowett and he's definitely putting a shift in. I think there's a valid argument that he doesn't get in our best team on merit purely because of the balance of the team. I think Skipp is stronger defensively and our centre backs aren't good enough to only have Winks shielding. I think JJ offers more box to box and I think controlling the game, Winks forte, is less important to us now. I also think Mukasa is too good to leave on the bench and JJ is wasted at 10. So believe me, I'm not saying Winks should be guaranteed to start. But I don't think he's been terrible under Rowett and I do think you've got the rage blinkers on. Which, again, to iterate - I complete understand and relate to.
  2. Can't be just me that thinks he's genuinely turned up under Rowett? I don't care how much people hate him, if he helps us stay up I'm happy for him to play. I'm not sure how you actually squeeze him in our best 11 if JJ is fit to start. If he misses out purely tactically then fair enough. But I couldn't give a shit about anyone's personal grudges right now as long as we stay in the league.
  3. These are very mid table with little to play for. Exactly the sort of game we need to be winning now. Same as QPR. These two games are massive. I very rarely buy in to this attitude (and it feels hypocritical when I won't be there) but it's when the crowd need to get back on side a bit too and genuinely start being encouraging. It's pretty obvious there's a major confidence issue, particularly playing at home. If we can't get over that hoodoo we're going down. We can complain all we want about this group of professionals shouldn't need and maybe don't deserve the encouragement but relegation probably kills this club for the short and mid term. We're ultimately all in it together.
  4. I'm just lashing out. If I can't be happy, nobody else should be.
  5. Most of the narrative about Scotland has been insufferable for years. Scotland under Toonie have been like the Czech Republic in football circa 2004. Entertaining, decent, strong enough to challenge some of the big guns but never going to actually win anything. Also see Tottenham under Poch. Yet the press feel absolutely obligated to talk them up as potential dark horses every year, despite the fact they famously turn into papier mache every time they leave Murrayfield and have done for pretty much my entire lifetime. Remind me, where are they playing Ireland?
  6. 2/10, you can do better
  7. @Vacamion I just wouldn't bother going to work Monday mun
  8. I genuinely thought you had Dr Disrespect as a profile pic for a second
  9. BBC absolutely jinxing us. Time to get our obliging on.
  10. We'll see. I'm reserving judgement til Bristol and QPR. Norwich was bad but it's a bit premature to call it a trend under Rowett. He'll have had some time to really get to grips with the squad by those two games. If we he can get a lifted performance out of the squad in those games I'll start believing.
  11. This is a complete free shot. It's Ipswich away. We've got a run of games coming up that are winnable even for us, they'll decide our season. Not this.
  12. I mean you're all moaning but a draw here would be a fantastic result and it's been a really strong defensive improvement. They're one of the best teams in the league with a very good home record and even when we were decent they got spawny draws against us. Oh and we're out of the bottom three.
  13. Mukasa and JJ coming on
  14. Braindead Thomas
  15. Mukasa getting ready
  16. We've got to maintain an attacking threat. If he brings on Ayew and surrenders all risk of a counter, again, and we try to park the bus and lose, again, I'm going to cry.
  17. We're so good at securing clean sheets from these positions I just can't see a way back in to this for Ipswich
  18. They're spewing full stop
  19. You want to take off one of our only players capable of producing match winning individual quality and replace him on the wing with a kid with no pace playing out of position. Mukasa is great, I like him, I'd have him on the pitch for Reid in a flash. But he's not a winger is he.
  20. The Ipswich comms are some of the most biased I've heard all season
  21. That's the kind of quality finish you get from a player with Champions League experience.
  22. As clinical as ever.
  23. Firstly, grow up and wind your neck in. Secondly, that's an absolutely ridiculous situation.
  24. Alright geniuses. For who? And I'm sorry but how many times has he had a fairly shit game this year then banged one top bins out of nowhere to save us? I mean, come the **** on.
