Town Centre Latest
Good to here. Went up Newport street yesterday on the way home from the game. I've seen the bridge bit plenty of times now and I'm convinced the doors and windows are perpendicular to the slope and not vertical. Its truly weird.

Wanderers 0-3 Boro
Beginning to wonder weather we should miss midfield out.Five at the back, wing backs pushing on. Two cloggers in midfield and play three up. If we're going to launch it anyhow, then get support to GM and make the opposition do some defending. Worked for the crazy gang, until they fragmented and got old, so maybe a means to an end. We'd get thrapped a few times, though that's happening anyhow, but if we pick led up a few points then who knows. Survival at all costs, get the embargo shifted, then move on.

Were charging away supporters a tenner a point.

Just read that a few Britons were refused evacuation by american personnel as they weren't american citizens. This despite space being available. Absolute cunts trick.

Me too, showing him obviously estranged from his lad's mum. Completely weird. Seems to go from being fine to unable to move. Not sure it does much to illustrate the difficulties of arthritis.

Agreed.

A few Saudi style public floggings wouldn't go amiss.

The thought I had reflecting on the bus home, was a midfield of Farrellys.

Wanderers 0-3 Boro
Yep. I actually think he did quite well considering he's a young lad up against a prem quality bloke. Good pace and will rarely have a tougher ride. He tried to carry the ball a few times, sometimes lost it, but at least he tried. I fear Taylor would have been destroyed because of a lack of pace. Like you said no one seems to take responsibility for helping out and nullifying the threat.

The sharks would do that.

Allardyce
I wouldn't say folk worry as such, but many seem to get worked up. As things stand he's nowt to do with the club. If he chooses to make the odd disparaging remark so be it, leave him to it.

Some decent norks in there; felt sorry for them having to go off next to the smoggies.

Wanderers 0-3 Boro
Funny how we see things differently. I thought Robinson did pretty well. That lad was as fast as anyone I've seen in a long while, and solid with it. They had free reign to stroke the ball about as our midfield was static. Morais offered nothing on the wrong side in support and it was quite easy for them to pick their way through. Its clear where our problems lie, a midfield that can barely string two passes together and lack dynamism. Noone looked OK at times in the first half, but those three in the middle offered so little. That being said the tactics were clear but it played into their hands. I though Madine did well, did everything that was asked of him but with precious little support.

I'm not justifying his bitterness, far from it, you've got your knickers in a twist-its an explanation of how I see it. It is to his detriment. It makes me laugh as its his weakness. I sure in his heart of hearts he knows he perhaps should have stuck it out longer. Move on under better terms. I also agree that his moaning about a lack of ambition was unfair. At the time pg was applauded by many on here for not overspending, something I still agree with. He is certainly full of himself, and that can rub folk up, but evidence suggests he's appreciated by players.

Likewise. Not sure how much optimism I've got, but my lad left his phone outside all night in the pissing rain so he's going for punishment.

That's mental.

Not half. Beginning to appreciate a few of the slightly older BBC weather ladies too. But carol is in a class off her own.

Opening Old Wounds
Its a great tale. Not sure I'd have managed a wank after; I'd still be steaming with the image of knight in my mind.

Allardyce
Now I see that as him being a bit embittered with PG and what happened. He genuinely believed he could take us further, and for me he's never been able to fully let go; he loves the club and is still wondering what might have been. It just comes out as a dig; I take it as a compliment.

Remember Fred Dibnah doing Greenhalls adverts? Right said Fred.... One more tyre and that'll do the job. But the wind wasn't blowing...and so then he remembered Greenhalls....

Remember that. PG was on the radio and said it. He wouldn't let Sam go to a club lower than us or words to that effect. Sanchez- I don't think you can compare the situation with managers and players. Managers have to be judged over a good few seasons, and BSA showed his promise before he came to us. Then went on to show with us that he could manage at a far higher level than purely relegation threatened teams. The opportunities for the top jobs don't come up that often and as has been said before, English managers do seem to get overlooked. The guy at Bournemouth has worked miracles and plays a decent brand of football, gradually building his team. Doubt we'll see him at utd, arsenal etc any time soon.

Opening Old Wounds
For me it was the unchecked challenges they were allowed to make. If fouls continually go unpunished then teams will start to give it back. The twat then chose to penalise us causing more consternation. I can remember commentators going apoplectic, says it all.

Night And Day
Absolutely. What a spectacular wicket for the milestone too. Love seeing the poles splattered.
-
Allardyce
Can't agree there mate. We'll never know just how good he is/was as he didn't manage a big club. Let's be honest, utd and arsenal weren't going to call as they had long term managers. Once fergie had gone, they were always going for a big name. Chelsea had the mourinho love in. He got shafted at the geordies and has done well everywhere else. The one thing he did do was manage supposedly difficult players and that would have stood him in good stead.
