What a ridiculous decision. We only have to look at how long it has taken the brothers to mould the squad into shape to see managers/coaches need time and patience.
Lindsey was a very popular appointment when he arrived. His Crawley team had thrashed MK Dons in last season's play-off semi-final and been promoted. I know there has been a growing discontentment among much of MK's support but a good owner needs to back his manager and ignore the siren calls, at least till he's had a year and a couple of windows. Scott Lindsey had five months. |

The last time I saw Sunderland play away was twenty-five years ago losing 1-0 at Blackburn in The F.A. Cup. I have two memories of that match. One that we were unlucky but the other that practically all the thousands of Sunderland supporters stood for the entire ninety minutes. I looked at a poor old fellow too frail to stand and unable to see the pitch and thought how selfish and thoughtless those fans were. Of course it has become the norm but that doesn't make it any less objectionable.
I hope the introduction of safe standing might alleviate the problem but I won't hold my breath. |

And came on after 73 minutes in a 1-2 win. |

Joe Taylor might be back tomorrow. Huddersfield and Michael Duff need him to get their season back on track. |

I'm afraid promotion is probably too much to ask for this season. But if it could be achieved I don't think it would be something to fear. With the Cowleys in charge and providing Mr Cowling gives them a reasonable budget in the summer I'd expect Colchester United to have enough to survive in League One.
Anyway, let's hope promotion isn't looking even less likely after tonight's trip to Meadow Lane. |

I agree with your title but back in the sixties and seventies Cardiff City played regularly in The European Cup-winners Cup. I don't know when the rules changed. |

I hadn't realised just how outstanding that one team is till I took a quick look at the top of the table. What a superb job Sadler has done with The Saddlers and there seemed no sign of how good they'd be ante-post. It is significant that he's had two full pre-seasons and they didn't allow the shock 2-6 home defeat to Fleetwood Town, ironically three days after their 4-0 win against The U's, to affect them at all. |
