One of my biggest gripes with Daka is he always moves diagonally away from the man on the ball when he's making forward runs. Vardy always just went vertically straight up the full back / centre back channel closest to the guy carrying it so they could just roll it in. Daka always looks like he wants to make the run around and behind the defence to get off the back shoulder. On the off chance it ever ever works it's a good run but 99/100 nobody is going to be able to slot that pass in and he just never gets the ball.

There's ****ing no chance we get a clean sheet out of this

Kinell almost shat mesen then

Absolutely love that. 18 years old, just joined the club, calling the entire team forward to press higher.

That's a brilliant tackle. This ref is a right nob

I can tell you where he definitely won't be

5 G+A in 3 games now?

Okoli looked shocked

What a fantastic delivery. Great ball from Mukasa

WE SCORED FROM A SET PIECE

That was really poor by BDCR. It should have been really obvious that neither Mav nor Daka were going to be able to connect with a cross. He needed to put his foot on it a moment and hold

Remember when we used to be good

Why score own goals when you can just get out of the way and let the opponent straight in. Way less effort.

Ugh. Just realised Luke Ayling is going to score some absolute shit house winner isn't he. He's going to appear completely unmarked and toe poke something in that Luke Thomas should have seen coming. That after spending the whole game diving on the floor pretending Patson Daka is Adebayo Akinfenwa.

Can we please just not ship any really ****ing stupid goals? Like if they absolutely out play us, fair enough, they're a good side. But please just no absolutely cheap, hideous defending.

Tbf it's still 1998 in Middlesborough

You can't go wrong anywhere around the Pembrokeshire coast. I grew up going to holidays at Tenby, Saundersfoot and till quite like them really. Tenby is very popular.

The stuff that Rudkin was supposed to be doing. Sporting Director and Director of Football are ultimately synonymous. A sporting director should be in charge of running the footballing side of the business outside the realm of coaching the first team. So, building the squad and maintaining it first and foremost. But more than likely also building and overseeing the operational teams that directly impact the football like sports science, scouting, data analytics, etc. Should all be his remit.

.......?

... what help would you normally expect a CEO and Technical Director to provide to a short term interim head coach that's got just over 10 games to keep a club up in a relegation contest? Rowett has everything he's going to get, regardless of who the other club staff are.

In the unlikely event we survive and are able to put a competitive squad together in the summer, I wouldn't really want Spurs to come down. There's zero chance they wouldn't absolutely smash the Championship.

Don't get me wrong, I understand that poor management off the pitch is why they've gotten in to their situation. Much like us. But I still wouldn't necessarily call it a manufactured relegation. It's not like they've been docked 60 points and would otherwise be a mid table side.

Tbf they've won one game all season and picked up 9 points. They've been shit on the pitch too.
