I've heard worse ideas to be fair. And the current midfield aren't exactly shining. He can certainly get forward when he wants to

Agreed. It does take too long to get the ball to them. It is most definitely not a lack of ability. Fatawu goal v Bournemouth, mavididi goal v Chelsea. They were against premier league teams. And let's get it about right.....there aren't too many top notch full backs in the championship.....as we used to say to Tommy wright (the original and best 😂)......skin him. It's beyond me why they don't. They could take the p*SS out of most full backs in this division.

Anyway .. match of the day now. Let's see what all this premier league fuss is about 😂

I didn't take it a a pop. Don't worry. Besides I've had far worse pops at me and survived 👍

Ha ha there's a train of thought that blokes over a certain age shouldn't wear sportswear......I tend to agree 😂

I've been talking about this with a few people. We have arguably the two best wingers in the league in mavididi and fatawu and they don't take the full back on nearly enough. It can only be fear or they've been told don't lose the ball under any circumstances, which will happen if you take the full back on 50% of the time. But the other 50% of the time you can put the ball in or defenders scared to death of giving away a penalty so they get a free (ISH) run at goal....a la Chelsea. You have to take risks to win games

Spot on. The bukta 90-92 I can vividly recall the team that played most weeks. Likewise the first fox leisure kit. After that sort of period they all tend to blur into one

What was good about it

Not many (players or managers) have cared like we do for a long time. We give up family time, money we could easily save or spend on something which at the mo seems more worthwhile, use up our annual leave and really FEEL the results because of this They have jobs, their bank accounts are full to bursting and they don't have a boss telling them to put a shift in.

**** me. Remind me never to thank anyone for anything in future

Dm'd you

Fair play mate, going out of your way to do this 👍

Exactly this. 👍

I'm not going to participate but I just had to laugh when I saw the thread. Best ever title for a thread. Who says we have to leave the 80s behind and be all pc 😂😂👍👍

This is my choice too. This was when boxing was a mainstream sport. Tyson could and should have gone on to dominate the heavyweight division for 10 years and was viewed as invincible. This sent shockwaves around the sporting world. A peak Tyson (86-89 ISH) gives any heavyweight in history fits with speed power and head movement. Sadly his head was turned by don king and the high life and he was never the same after losing Kevin Rooney as trainer. The head movement and punches in bunches disappeared and he just became a short heavyweight with short arms looking for one KO shot and lost to anyone he couldn't bully or intimidate.

👍👍 Yes I was planning to. It's just there's only a handful of tickets left. I think I'll get a couple anyway and see what happens. If it comes to it I'll have to drive

Me and my daughter went to man city away and priority points weren't added to my account. They were for Blackburn, cov and Chelsea on the men's side so I'm assuming no they aren't

Anybody know if there are likely to be any more coaches for this? Daughter wants to go but i'm not a fan of London driving, or indeed the price of train tickets.

Im not an expert in these matters by any stretch of the imagination...to be honest I'm only really interested in the bit where 11 blokes take on another 11 blokes......but......is there a scenario where we get deducted points this season? I'm just thinking we may achieve top 2 then get points deducted and stay down. And then it's what a waste of time the season was

I'd be happy enough if the big six ****ed off to a super league. They've helped to ruin top flight football. This would leave clubs with half a chance of winning something, more competitive games and possibly sky would go and w*nk off over them elsewhere rather than subject us (or rather those that have sky) to their weekly worship of them. I'd wave them off......apart from a few hangers on, the majority of people go to see their team play, not the opposition anyway. I'd go (and have) whether it was man city or Colchester opposite us and I'm sure many feel the same.

It was where I was. It was bedlam. I've waited a good while to experience a goal reaction like that again. Proper.. like stepping back a few years

I'm not an Enzo basher either.....top for most of the season speaks for itself.... Even now in 2nd it's in our hands with the game in hand. But I have to agree with the full back comment. Yesterday showed it more than ever. Almost everything Chelsea did was wide and exposed us over and over, especially first half

I stand corrected. 👍 I don't have sky....I just know Blackburn was on TV as it was one of the few away games I could get tickets for and put it down to it being a Sunday TV game

I had this convo yesterday. Blackburn away is the only other win that springs to mind on TV..... correct me if I'm wrong (which I have no doubt will happen on here 😂)

Differing opinions on the game on here and I can see both sides.. My main concern was the p*ss poor pitch invader. Mate.....that was the worst pitch invasion ever. Wasn't a streak and wasn't really a proper runaround either.....You could have waited til Chelsea were attacking and not fall over after about 6 steps!! 😂. What was the plan anyway once you were on the pitch? Still.....worth a ban for 6 stumbling steps 😂😂😂
