I prefer Alpaca to Lama, especially on the left wing. |  |

Unlike, it seems, a number on this board, I don't really care a jot about the 'who' behind postings here; I mostly just care about what's being said. Most of what I write reflects this, and is suitably resourced, as in my last post citing an interview Marti gave in August to try to challenge the misleading idea that he's been moaning abour recruitment since Reading. Just for once, it would be nice if actual counter-arguments like this were acknowledged. It would make the place seem a bit more adult.
When I think something wrong, I'll call it out with reasons. If my points are succcessfully counter-argued, I'm glad to accept it. Most of the time, however, I find they're not. The rest is, of course, speculation and opinion, which is what makes a superbly trivial board like this a chaotic kind of para-footballing fun - at least some of the time.
PS I'm sure this innocuous post will still elicit the priggish 'ignores' and supercilous sneers from the usual one or two, but it's really water off a duck's back. [Post edited 24 Nov 19:45]

I don't have any 'golden rules', so you're a self-justifying, over-generalising, caricaturing, wriggling-on-the-stick of your own words, sir! I'd say, of the two of us, all the evidence (self-righteousness, self-denial etc. etc) suggests you're the tacky narcissist. |
In that case sir , I offer you my sincerest… contrafibularities |  | | |

An additional point I would repeat on this contract thing.
The contract was announced at the fan forum. Jake Clarke-Salter's contract was announced at the fan forum. Dembele making his move permanent "after passing the requisite number of appearances" (six at that stage).
Were all those deals done that Monday? That weekend? Is that Dembele thing even true?
The club have shown themselves untrustworthy under this CEO.
I first heard about Cifuentes getting a new contract at the end of June, when he was being half-heartedly linked with Burnley and quite heavily linked with Sunderland up there.
It is perfectly possible that deal was signed before the transfer window even really got going.
He was complaining about the recruitment as far back as Reading in pre-season. |
Indeed. Dave Mac said a few weeks ago that he was entitled to the new deal for keeping us up, so it's difficult to conjure up a scenario where anyone would turn that down. If the club goes on to make a complete horlicks of the transfer window it's not his fault and when the inevitable happens he walks away with a better pay off. Good for him.

Isn't this the media creating something to fill space?
I hope the board keep the courage of their convictions and stick with Marti and Noury and give them the chance to turn around what has happened. I don't agree with view that many have on this board that Noury is an evil villain or that Marti is infallible.
I think we are desperately short of one thing ... We need Frey back as soon as possible and then someone needs to be working with Celar to fix his attitude and instill a work ethic into him. Didn't we employ a one to one coach or something over the summer? He should be working with Clear every second he can to get him to put the effort in. He obviously has some talent but we haven't seen it yet and his confidence must be shot to pieces.
Santos should be in the development squad and developing.
In the last game, it looked like Madsen showed signs of improving ... Now he needs to show his mettle and keep improving.
If there was only one problem we fixed it would be getting the stupid ball in the onion bag!
I don't think now is the time to sack anyone .. now is the time for everyone at the club to stand up and be counted. That includes the players, the coaches, the physios and the CEO. [Post edited 24 Nov 23:16]

I think they both need another transfer window and cup run. Look at the injuries- field is a defensive mid not a centre back - he does well there but weakens us more elsewhere. 1 fit striker who could not hit a barn door with a banjo - when you have no threat teams push up on you and inevitably score. If we get everyone back we end up 18th | |

If someone has got to this stage of their career playing a certain way a one to one chat isn't going to change their style of play. Just lousy and lazy recruitment. As we all know. | | | |

You want to get down to an optician with all those blind spots Clive. Surprised you can see anything at all. |
We all have deaf and blind spots, you idiot! I've already pointed out one regarding MC's interview in August telling us he was happy with recruitment etc. as a counter-narrative to the 'Nourry is the Devil' thesis. That's me being a 'contrarian' for some, apparently, by, uh, pointing out journalistic facts. Here it is again in case you missed it:

His body language, his tone during interviews and his reaction to the new signings on the touchline tell a very different story
of course in public he backed the new signings, he's not going to come out and slag them all off, he's still publicly backing them today |  | | |

Ok cool. Going to pop you on ignore now as I would get more out of trying to converse with a lamp post than letting you derail every thread with your incessant need to be contrary. Ta da. |
I finally put that imbecile on ignore last week and it's made the board so much more bearable. Only the second individual I've ignored on here - I'd completely forgotten the other one! |  |

We were however far better for Lloyd and Morgan on instead of Madsen and Celar, so those worked. He's not exactly working with much from his bench is he? |
Of course, obvious substitutions removing our two ineffectual players which helped build the momentum I was talking about. Then ten minutes later Smythe and a little later Field were removed which I thought lost us some momentum.
Someone suggested Smythe was injured though lets hope that isn't the case with Field as well. I guess we will find out on Wednesday night. |  | | |

The last thing we need is Smyth out injured as well. Yes his end product often leaves a lot to be desired but he gives 100% commitment and always tries to make things happen. Opposition defenders always struggle against him. We lost momentum when he came off on Saturday. |  | | |

I can't believe people are taking so long to utilise and appreciate the value of the 'ignore' button.
