Asleep at the wheel…

What were these fibs?

It’s not based on goals per 90. Not sure that data is available for Akinbiyi, but might be wrong?

Palace took him off our hands for £2.2m

He reminds me of when we signed Marco Ferreira on loan under Martin Allen (?). Around the time that signing someone with a foreign exotic name was enough to get excited. I think he only made 1 appearance 🤣 * actually his only appearance was as an unused sub.

Vichai got lucky, made some early mistakes but he learnt and delivered the unimaginable. We kept it together for a while after he died, but I think this was a key moment. For a club that had no real leaders, to let someone like Kasper go just speaks volumes for people not knowing what they were and are doing.

I probably will, but it defies logic. I’m keen to keep it going in my family, as my daughter probably won’t want to go much. She will likely be the first in 4-5 generations not to go. But outside of it being a family tradition, I can’t think of any other reason. How sad is that?

Yesterday I asked how Daka’s goal per game ratio compared with Akinbiyi. Its almost identical in total games, but in the PL Daka is worse. So I have just been on an inflation calculator website. We paid £5.5m in 2000 for Akinbiyi, which in 2021 money is £9.8m. We paid £23m for Daka reportedly in 2021. So my conclusion is that Akinbiyi was a superb investment compared to Daka.

I disagreed with this view a few months ago, but I am in full agreement now. It’s got so pathetic that home fans are mocking and laughing at the team. I don’t think they’re even trying now, which I’ve only ever said of the 22/23 shit show - but this worse. They lack ideas, effort and just go through the motions a lot even when we’re just a goal down.

Statistically worse on headline stats than Akinbiyi (goals per game). That says everything about where he is as a striker.

I remember that game and it supports my theory on Daka - that’s he’s capable when he’s under no pressure and there is no player anywhere near him…

I wonder who’s got the better goals record, him or Ade Akinbiyi.

So amateur that they didn’t know how to handle and build on a period of success. How key decision makers are still in their roles beggars belief. What I’ve heard is that Top wanted to sell a while ago, but his Mum won’t let him because memories of Vichai etc. It’s only idle terrace gossip, but I think the club are going to be run into the ground even further before anything changes.

Chilwell player manager?

Give it Barry Chuckle until the end of the season

Even at 1 and 2, there is no urgency whatsoever. Just going through the motions.

The comeback is on!

I hope so

We couldn’t score in a brothel

This is a great performance compared to Everton

Haha another keystone cops goal conceded.

Tbf from what I’ve seen of him he’s worse than Daka, which is quite impressive really

How is Patson Daka a footballer? He got a prolonged time here where he had the benefit of the doubt, mainly because of his body language and general demeanour. But he’s absolutely woeful. And he’s just consciously thought he could score from 30 yards. **** off.

I’m going to bring my boots next time I go to the KP because I can’t do any worse than some of this lot. I’m not even sure how some of them made it as professional footballers.

So, so predictable.
