No Jackett required?

Yes they are playing very well and complement each other. Ream was at fault yesterday for their goal, I don't see that as luck. He's allowed one though the way he is playing, he's been excellent.

[Jakerbeef]

Living in that smoggy overcrowded sh*t hole they have to call home is punishment enough.

Point taken, but not everybody that lives nearby is a knuckle-dragging waste of organs. Which implies that they don't have to be.

Not sure what your point is, are you sticking up for them?

I think he is saying that not everyone that lives in London/East London is a knuckle dragging...well, you get the meaning. I used to live in Canary Wharf, a mere stones throw from Millwall (Isle of Dogs is in Millwall), and I as well as most inhabitants were completely normal people and no more racist than anyone from anywhere. DSB lives in London and is a very decent and affable chap.

Thanks for your interpretation of what he meant but the question is directed at him.

That wasn't AT's interpretation. He merely read what DSB posted and understood it.

Was anybody asking you?

[jaffka]

Dunno why anyone bothers on here

Don't sulk, it doesn't become you

[jaffka]

Thanks for that but its still not coming from the horses mouth.

^ to be fair - the original post was entirely from the horse's mouth! he's under no obligation to repeat it! - but then, who asked me!

[Prufrock]

Ream still worries me. Their goal is appallingly bad from him. Sunday League wrong side for no reason bad. He's been good recently, so he's allowed a mistake. Just hop it's a blip.

Are you speaking Polari?

When I say 'weak' in this context, I am not making a general statement about inconsistency, which is what your examples all seem to speak to.

In Ream's case I am speaking literally about a lack of physical strength.

It sounds like he's been playing well recently, which is great, as we're desperately short of quality at CB, but that goal yesterday is exactly what I think about if I picture Ream's shortcomings - his being shrugged limply out of the way at a very inopportune moment.[/quote]

No idea what polari is mummy? I've watched this incident a dozen times and Ream gets on the wrong side of the player, not gets limply shrugged off. He's inside the area and any challenge there that didn't get the ball would have had Easter down and howling penalty. It was a good ball and a good goal that Easter did very well to score.

Yes, but he was positioned wrongly to create that possibility. That may be a matter of experience at this level -
Polari is what they speak in circuses and other hangouts of less salubrious people so you can't understand them.

[boltonboris]

Good result.

Out of interest, would you still sack DF now or stick with him SF?

What makes you think he might not be a clueless know nowt any more?

Talk us through Ream's performance today.

Ream was very good

Hats off to the manager and his staff

Apart from when he cost us another goal by being a bit of a pansy and get arsed off the ball akin to a 6 year old.

Made up for that with the pass, but it's still startling that he gets 'done' by such poor opposition so often.

Good, steady performance by the team though. It's starting to look as if it's coming together now.

Bloody hell, what do you expect??

We're a (at best) mid table Championship team at the moment. Of course we're going to have players that aren't the best and drop b*llocks every so often.

We look a damn sight better at the back and seem to be going in the right direction.

What would you do differently?

[Prufrock]

Them to not make school-boy mistakes? Accepting he isn't the best player ever doesn't mean any mistake is OK. If one of the centre-halves in the team I play for had done that it would have been embarrassing.

Correct. In the context of the game, forgivable, even though it got them back to 1-1.

Sat in the ground, I was thinking that the striker must've been offside, to get that much space off the defender.

On the replay, I can now see what happened - which is the defender gave him the acres of space he was stood in.

Have I asked a question to the royalty

[thebish]

who asked you??

[jaffka]

who asked you??

Nobody but seeing as I asked the original question I think I have more right to butt into a discussion

[Worthy4England]

Can we have a list of who's asked what questions and to who they've asked them, and who can respond to said questions in passing?

I'm lost on this.

[jaffka]

LK i believe is the resident list expert.

[Worthy4England]

Ohh good spot!

Over to you LK.

We might need a poll to clarify it all too.

I could understand if we lost, but we didn't?

He's been the best of what we've got (with Mills), so again I ask, what should we do? Drop him?
