The People's Hero Posted 18 January 2013 Share Posted 18 January 2013 Bitter bunch of bastards aren't they? So what if our owner is from Thailand? So what if our manager is from Nottingham? It wasn't long ago they had a Scottish manager who tried to pack them team with SPL rejects, how quickly they forget... The mercenaries are gone, we've got a young, hungry team with two academy graduates in the squad - Moore and King - and we're playing great football under a good manager - if they think the most important thing to a team is where the chairman or the manager or the players were born, let them get on with it. Schlupp is sort of there or thereabouts too. We'd do exactly the same as they are doing. You look for any stick to beat your opponents with. The fact they have had to stoop to something like that though, speaks volumes about how well we are doing in most departments currently. That said 4/1 Middlesborough win? Wowsers.

We more often than not have four youth team players in the match day squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobsterboyuk Posted 18 January 2013 Share Posted 18 January 2013 They're owned by a pack of Thai's... There's some fair points made to my mind. My ideal scenario would be a local moneybags ploughing his dosh in to the club as a labour of love to be honest, I'd much rather LCFC has the level of transparency enjoyed by boro fans around club ownership structures and especially debt levels (they don't owe a penny to any external financiers, Gibson has got it all covered). Having said that, I think our owners are among the better band of foreign owners and have my support and respect at this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manwell Pablo Posted 18 January 2013 Share Posted 18 January 2013 That manager from Nottingham I seem to recall was the captain of Middlesbrough Football Club. Did you complain about his birthplace when he skippered you, pal? It's a rather silly comment. I'm Sure they preferred their foriegn mecenaires like Ravenlli, Juninho, Yakabu, Beck and Emmerson to their current crop. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had to give his wikipedia a read after that discovery. Quite a boring man. Also says he had a win percentage of 51% at Celtic, yet still went down as the worst manager in Celtic's history Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flowwolf Posted 18 January 2013 Share Posted 18 January 2013 Yes and they are owned by a sucker who does not know when he is flogging a dead horse, a manager with a face like a Bloodhound on mogadon , and a team that is going nowhere very soon. Shit club laughable support and delusions of grandeur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bilo Posted 18 January 2013 Share Posted 18 January 2013 Four games time is a bit pessimistic of them, they could open up a 10 point gap tomorrow. However looking at our run of games till the end of February, win at their place and that gap could narrow significantly. One hell of an if though, we have a poor record at the CCS and they have the best home record in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FoxTrott Posted 18 January 2013 Share Posted 18 January 2013 It's quite interesting to read that Cardiff fans said this game made them realise "how bad they looked". This was one of our poorer performances, to be honest... kind of says a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
