  1. After a couple of cup defeats and a friendly defeat, a major concern is the soft goals we are conceding. What doesn't seemed to have been mentioned is what level of protection is being given by the midfield. We seem to have recruited some talented midfield players, Sarcevic, Crawford, White etc. But these players are not the "they shall not pass" type to protect the back 3. In my opinion the squad needs a teak tough defensive midfield player, who just giv.es the ball to the his ball playing team mates. Question: Are there any free agents out there who fit this profile?? Lets hope so
  2. What time does today's match kick off against the Railwaymen?
  3. Cheers, this interweb stuff is sooo confusing isn't it
  4. I've not got around to renewing my season ticket yet. Am i correct in thinking that I can now go to the club shop and re-new, rather than doing it via the on-line palaver
  5. Like a lot of us, I'm gagging to see this new team play. does anyone know how the cuff you go about spending your tenner and getting access to the live stream?
  6. I am looking to get a few tickets ( for mates) when they go on open sale on Friday 30th Jan. Season ticket holders are only allowed one each. The BWFC web site has a confusing statement regarding the open sale rules: "From 9am on 30th January the remaining seats will go on open sale to anyone with a previous purchase history prior to 9th January 2015" Does anyone know what the F*** that means. Are they on open sale or not ?????
  7. Given that Chris Eagles is a free agent, with Blackpool choosing not to offer him a contract extension, it seems a no-brainer for the Whites to offer this 29 year old a short term deal as per Heskey & Eidur. I think he would snatch their hands off I don't think he'll be asking for the sort of money that he was on previously and its likely Lenny could work his magic and get the lad playing to his potential. What do you think?????
  8. We are be strongly linked with a January loan deal for Nick Powell, as far as I know this lad is a midfield player. Super Lenny has regularly stated that the squad is unbalanced with too many midfield player. So, am I missing something, Is this lad a goal machine striker or what?????
  9. Does anyone know why Rob Hall has been frozen out of the First team squad? Is it anything to do with appearance fees that we would have to pay to West Ham as part of the deal?
  10. I understand that the Whites have agreed a deal with Crewe for their want-away striker Max Clayton. Was wondering if anyone knew much about the lad apart from: He is 20 years old; He has represented England from the U16s upwards. His middle name is James Lets hope Dougie puts him straight in, Rather than a dozen games in the Development squad.
  11. I am sick and tied of reading shed loads of negatives about the Wanderers in this Forum. Goodness knows we are all disappointed about a second successive abysmal start to the season, but I hereby challenge you as Wanderers Ways members and, presumably, loyal White fans to dig deep and force yourselves to type a few positives messages to lift every ones flagging spirits. Come on Boys and Girls. Its never been an easy ride being a Whites fan. But we stick at it. COYW,s
  12. I also have a feeling......tonight the NGOG will be let off the leash. Get a fiver on him to get the winner. Everton are pants and we are due a lucky bounce or 3 in the box. I feel it will be tonight. Prediction: Tofees nil : White Men 1 ( Ngog 61 mins). You heard it here first COYWM
  13. I'm hearing Bolton have made a bid to Schalke for ex Real Madrid legend Raul. He's 34 years old and scored 22 goals in 55 games last season in the Bundesliga. Question: Is Raul the right type of player for BWFC or will a signing like this just be a drain the coffers in terms of his wages? IMO He's a big name and everyone seems to be aching for us to sign one, but at 34years old he clearly isn't the future so I don't think we should sign him. What do the WW Forum experts think??
  14. I expect CITEH to play it very defensive & try to hit us on the break. Prediction a set peice header SKD 1-0 to the Whites. CYWM
  15. 0-0 with Petrov hitting the post and Jussi making a string of fine saves throughout the match. Get a fiver on it, the odds won't be bad & pay for your beer next Sunday. you know it makes sense
  16. Not being a conspiracty theorist, but..... The concensus is that the signing is done & dusted. Hope thats the case. But why has the club yet to make an official statement? The reason can't be the work permit issue so whats the hold up??? Any Ideas? I wouldn't be getting his name on the back of your shirt just yet.
  17. Seems to have gone very quite on our pursuit of Liverpool N'Gog. Do any of you Wanderers experts know whats happened here. I read we'd made an offer for him. Has it been rejected? Is he the answer. Personally I have'nt noticed him that much when he has got a game for the Scousers. That said I'd take hime rather than the Blue nose's Cameron Jerome.
  18. What a pathetically negative view. Given that OC has worked with both Eagles & Mears, he knows what they can do & he's backed his judgement with cash. I for one know little about either player, but I do rate OC. So lets see how they do for us next season & if they prove to be ballons, far enough they deserve to be slagged off, but for Christ sake let give them tha change & stop this depressing negativity. The new season approaches... COYWM
  19. What I can't figure out is how you lot seem so sure it's Delap's time of the month. If it isn't the towel will be left in his toilet bag. Problem solved
  20. Just wondering when BWFCBoothy did his Economics degree? spouting "price elasticity of demand".... Bollocks If there isn't a release clause in his contract, then its a sellers market IMO.
  21. There is an inevitability about everything we read or hear, that Gary Cahill will be leaving the Rebook this summer. In fact I'm quite suprised that he hasn't been asked to play with a FOR SALE sign on his back these last few games give the amount of column space covering OC's views on the subject. The key thing for BWFC is that we get a very good price for the lad, to give us some clout in the summer transfer window. But WHAT IS A GOOD PRICE FOR GARY CAHILL? Would ?15m keep the fans happy? Does anyone know what the release clause is in his latest contract? Or was the release clause removed altogether when he signed the new contract at the start of this season.
  22. Its looking unanimous. Anyone got OC's number? He needs to know our decision
  23. Who do you want to see named as Gary C's centre back parner for the Semi? IMO I'd like to see Zat Knight, He looked very good against WHU on Saturday & that game can only do him good after a long layoff. I think his understanding with Cahill is the crutial thing. Anyone agree?
  24. Having decided to wait until today to attempt to phone for my Semi Final tickets, thinking it would be manic on first day they went on sale, I was amazed to get through at the first attempt (at about 10am). The fella I spoke to was very helpful & I got the 5 tickets I was looking for (using 3 season tickets of course. Well Done BWFC. Not often you here that
