Be happy to hear what the match lads say, but despite all the pressure we put on, the commentators sounded really panic-stricken every time they did get near our box?

Who was the Newcastle manager when we beat them 5-1? Always seems like a nice chap though.

Sorry, but you're making yourself look more ridiculous with each comment now. Get a grip!

Well if previous score lines affect some ones chances of getting the job, we are fecked then.

That tonking at Reading will see that Duggie never works in football again.

Not sure about Clarke - seems to lack personality. O'Driscoll? Maybe - anybody know what went wrong at Bristol City (I mean why the results went so crap)?

Always liked Hughton - couldn't turn it round at Norwich, though...spent a few bob there, too.
Hughton has worked with small and no budgets before though with Birmingham. Nobby has said that in football everyone has good things to say about him.

Not sure what went wrong for O'Driscoll at Bristol but he had Doncaster and Forest playing attractive attacking football/whilst those teams had decent defences also
Okay. I'm sold. Do you have either of their phone numbers? :D

It's always easier to condone this kind of thing when you are an arm chair fan. When you pay good money you expect better. I can't think of any other club's fans who would be so blase. Terrible

Love that argument. You didn't spend 39 quid + travel to watch an away game( I think) so you're wrong.

You're coming across a bit of a cock here. I'm neither an armchair fan nor blase. I don't see that it's the crime of the century that Beckford has acknowledged fans that still seem to like him.

There's plenty of justified reasons to want the fecker to piss off. Let's not make stuff up.
