Re: WE NEED EDDIE DAVIES HELP
I'm not as old as you though Worthy! My old man reckons the one failing of Greaves was that he allowed a squad to get old together. Though, if you listened to him, you'd think that the late seventies pissed all over Allardyce's tenure. Thats life, as they say.
Still, I do believe that we're as much victim of circumstance as bad management.

You can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks.
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.

Re: WE NEED EDDIE DAVIES HELP
I probably wasn't quite old enough to really understand players getting too old. 
I certainly enjoyed the watching the team of the 70's more than the team of the noughties. Even when we were finishing top half, I always used to say 17th or better was a good finish for us. I'm not oblivious to the money or injury situation, but really don't think in comparison to other teams, I would have expected us to be this poor, this season. I thought that when we got relegated, it would be a close run thing in 18th, with some fight and a modicum of organisation.
