Re: Our formation

As I watched it from a decent view on the telly (although I won't feel half the jinx, next outing (maybe it's HG :-) ) - it was crystal clear what was going on - maybe Ian should have contemplated another red card, for a better view , or given they knew exactly what Oxford were going to do, come up...

Re: Should I(E) stay or should I(E) go?

I think most of us would have got pretty close on the "released" list. In about January! (JDB's extension terms notwithstanding, he was only the second most talked about three letter acronym beginning with "J" for the most part) Oh for sure. Declan John never likely to be extended... I wonder if Je...

Re: Tooling up: The summer 2024 transfer thread

Forest Green, freshly relegated to non-league, sign Liam Sercombe and Sean Long, freshly released from Cheltenham. I had time for FGR at one stage, but the club (and especially the owner) has become increasingly insufferable - culminating in the appointment of Troy Deeney. Delighted to see them gon...

Re: Should I(E) stay or should I(E) go?

I suspect they may not be communicating because they may not know. It's the fans rather than the club that have imposed a "Go away and think about what you've done" but I do think Evatt will be spending at least some time wondering whether to jump. A week is a generous amount of time, even in the fo...

Re: Our formation

That shows in microcosm, Sheehan's disappearance. Every time (in the clip). Their 9 has done a very good job, but Sheehan looking to adapt to it doesn't really happen. Edit: It would also be a brave man, to suggest Santos should have been doing "something brave" with it as Evatt said in post-match,...

Re: Should I(E) stay or should I(E) go?

It'll settle a bit over the summer, I just think we hit kick off in a less forgiving place than last year. A *much* less forgiving place. Understandably. We need a good summer, a strong start, some key wins against rivals (promotion, local or both) and probably some clear and obvious signs that we'...

I will back them every game. Doesn't mean I won't "have a view" between matches.
Of course. We’ve all served enough time to have an opinion, and I’ll defend the right to do so, even if to me that opinion is literally as well as nominatively insane

Lovely to get served this ad TODAY on the smoking hole where Twitter used to be . IMG_6807.jpeg .

If he stays, I will back him and the club as I always do and hope for the best.. but deep down I know that's a dream as my heart tells me failure. But I will support no matter what. Its my team.

How did it work out for Sunderland when they sacked their manager this season?

These things can go either way.

Tangent - IE is currently 7/2 third favourite for the Birmingham job... Interesting link. Job very suited for him in that they should really win the league this season - good players, money, big club, room to grow. Job very not suited for him in that it’s been a very unstable club - revolving manag...

Re: Tooling up: The summer 2024 transfer thread

Yep. Pep might well have made a change. Upsetting for the subbed lad(s) but it’s a team game. The not-so-secret secret with Pep is he doesn't do it alone. People like Dunn have a huge influence on how City set up game to game and what they target. Does Evatt have those people around him? We can see...

Quite. His to-do list is considerable. If he doesn’t fancy it, off he pops.

Which is not to say “rip it up and start again” or that he’s a hopeless cause. But there’s a big job on.
