| Forum Thread | Ivan Juric - Reasons to be cheerful 1,2,3 at 13:17 21 Dec 2024
His name sounds a little bit like Ian Dury, so what a waste it would be to let that pass 3 reasons; 1. Pragmatism over idealism. No more passing in our own penalty area will be good 2. Heavy metal football sounds like it should be fun and attacking. 3. He sounds like a loose cannon - No boring yes man - excellent! |
| Forum Thread | SR not AL for SR at 12:45 18 Dec 2024
I assumed along with others that Lallana was brought in to the club in readiness for the inevitable Russell Martin implosion and that at this point AL would be leading the team tonight, not the amiable Simon Rusk, who happens to share the same initials as the owners, but looks and sounds like He has been plucked off the nearest Building Site. Presumably the decision was made so as to not muddy the waters and a replacement may be named after the game tonight, hopefully. The take away from his interview is that he will listen to the players - so this will be revealing to see what style is played tonight - should be fascinating. |
| Forum Thread | The unbelievable presidency election. at 10:29 14 Jul 2024
The old saying "politics is just theatre for ugly people" took another twist yesterday when Trump had his ear grazed by a lone shooter and was then able to have an iconic photo taken of him with a bloodied face fist pumping by an American flag saying Make America great again. The comparison with his rival Sleepy Joe who can't find his way of a stage is all too apparent. It appears that the Powers that Be want a Trump victory for whatever reason, so they stage a little drama for the masses. Does anyone really buy this BS anymore? |
| Forum Thread | Heading down the table without Flynn at 08:31 16 Feb 2024
Flynn Downes goes off injured against Huddersfield after half an hour. We then concede 6 goals in 150 minutes. There have been a lot of strong performances this season from players like KWP, JB and THB but surely a fully fit Downes is our most influential player, when he got taken off against Swansea away we nearly capitulated after dominating completely beforehand. With Downes automatic promotion, without Downes - play offs. Does anyone more “anoraky” than me have stats to back up how influential Downes is? |
| Forum Thread | One thing I learnt from today... at 15:55 20 Jan 2024
that Jack Stephens, if played could cost us promotion. Sorry, lovely bloke and all that, but virtually every game he plays he brings chaos to our defending. Harwood Bellis and JB have formed a brilliant partnership that should be instrumental in getting us up. Stephens should only be used as a last resort. |
| Forum Thread | Players collapsing on the pitch at 08:24 12 Dec 2021
This seems to be the elephant in the room. I have been following football man and boy for 50 years, I have never known such a time as this when hardly a week goes by with out another story of a player collapsing or having breathing difficulties, Yesterday it was Victor Lindelof. Surely there must be an urgent review into this - why this year, young men at the peak of fitness are collapsing. When Trevor Sinclair mentioned a possible link between the covid jab and John Fleck's collapse he was immediately cut off by Talk Sport, https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10241903/Trevor-Sinclair-blasted-vaccin I am against the coercion and mandating of this jab, but this is not point scoring. These events are tragic. I am genuinely interested in what Uglies think about this, why is it happening and what can be done? |
