Re: Pointing the way. Stevenage at home Sat, 3rd May 3-0'clock

I'm just an average Joe (Dave?) who is sick and tired of the negativity in the world, and who will always try to see the best in any situation (however trying that might be some times). If that makes me a bad person then I am a bad person and I apologise for that. And please don't think for one minu...

Jesus. F*cking. Christ.
If your constant negative sentiment wasn't so predictable, it would be unbelieveable.

Don't bother with this one then, and please don't bother posting afterwards about how bad it was, and enjoy your extended summer.....

Re: To be or not to Be? . ..Away to Peterborough, Sat 26th Apr. 3-0'clock.

Both. The comparison was often made. There are not light years but whole universes between them as managers. The fact many were sucked in by such an obvious charlatan still annoys me. Yes we move on but the failures of that period will linger a long time if we can’t find a formula for success next ...

Re: Contract expiry

I know its the not the popular narrative, but Jerome was superb for us towards the end of that season - a consumate professional, presumably a decent motivator around the dressing room, versatile to be able to bring on as an auxiliary defender when needed, and canny (no one else could create the goa...

Re: Yorkshire Relish. Away to Barnsley Sat Apr 12th 3-0'clock.

Genuine question: - People are calling for wholesale change with double-digit numbers of players needing replacing. - People are also calling for a serious assault on the automatics next year (sounds like our first game of next season is already a "must win"!!) Whilst I readily accept something need...

Re: Yorkshire Relish. Away to Barnsley Sat Apr 12th 3-0'clock.

It's a good point Wrighty. I was of the belief, just get in the play offs and see what happens. Last seasons promoted duo, Pompey and Derby both missed out on the play offs the year before. Last seasons beaten 3, Us, Barnsley and Peterborough have all had shocking seasons. It's probably grasping at...

Re: Yorkshire Relish. Away to Barnsley Sat Apr 12th 3-0'clock.

Schumacher says it took us half an hour to make a tackle. Whatever is going on at least he tells it as it is unlike the last bloke….. If he is given the chance to properly clear this out and sign proper replacements I do feel next season could be good. After all he’s done precisely this at Plymouth...

Re: Trouble at't Mill(ers". At home to Rotherham, Tuesday 8th Apr. 19-45.

Can’t keep relying on a bloke who has absolutely no desire to do the grafting part of the game. Utterly, utterly ridiculous statement, about another player you can't wait to shoot down at every opportunity. Sheehan grafts - if he didn't he wouldn't be picked for us or be picked as captain of Wales....
