    Saw John Bramwell there tonight thanks to your tip off.  Great venue and great gig. Cheers! 

    He do Kloot songs or does he have solo stuff?

    Mate of mine has a little label and one of his bands, Shade, are playing the Deaf Institute tonight. I have tickets but frankly I CBA so I’m stopping in watching Ant n Dec 😄

    Sadlier has to be starting. He’s technically excellent

    Dapo is a wideman, never ever a 10

    We miss Lee & Jones badly.

    Lets prep for the summer. A decent season

    Yep to all that

    You don't think it is a football manager's job  to organise his team to defend set pieces competently?

    Not convinced we conceded because of a lack of organisation but I’d have to see it again

    Probably the worst collective performance in a couple of months today. Just couldn’t get going at all. Credit to Plymouth they had a game plan controlled the ball for the most part and snuffed out our main threat (Fossey) 

    its glaringly obvious the system doesn’t suit Dapo. He’s lost in there and hardly involved. Sadlier had more of the ball in the 20 mins he was in there (before we switched to a 433) and he played the role like a proper No  10. Roaming around, wanting the ball and trying to create. Dapo looked like he had another lease of life when he moved out to the left. The most he’d been involved for about 4 weeks! 
     

    johnstone and Aimson aren’t the answer defensively if we want to kick on next season. One thinks he’s playing all day and the other panics like fuck every time the ball is within 20 yard of him. If santos decides his future is elsewhere there’s a big job needed on that back 3 next year. 
     

    we get nowt off the teams above us and turn over the teams below so we’re bang on where we should be. The season Petering out to nothing is actually a welcome relief compared to the other tortuous ones

    Great summary

    He left a bag and a towel in separate places. Both thrown off by Bolton players.

    Their physio came on in the first half for that prick with the popadom ankle and didn’t even bring a bag with him.

    Read on Twitter that their cunty physio was none other than Simon Twatting Farnworth?!

    Anyway, we went from looking like Brazil in the first 30 mins to the dog & duck.

    Whats most concerning is the mental thing - reduced to forcing it and not trusting the process. That diag we kept trying was doing my head in. They scored and we lost our heads.

    Adams is a shit cunt but they did what he likes - pressed us well and fucked our rhythm up. Especially when Johnston & Aimson got it. We went very predictable and lacking in tempo. Dapo especially guilty of slowing it down and no r moving it quickly enough 

    Officials as dire as every week - a stonewall pen denied for each team.

    We’re not far off but we still aren’t quite there yet. I still fancy us to sort it and go up next season mind

     

  6. Had Lenovos at work a while back, they were garbage. Moved onto Dells, and they’re alright except a bug that fucks my microphone for Teams/Zooms that they can’t fix.

    Bought a HP Pavillion yesterday as a family one - junior for homework, me for streaming footy etc - only had it a day but so far so good

    What a fucking beauty!!!

    I'm not sure Fossey meant to play it to Morley (prob MJ), but I love the way he does play intelligent balls in/back, not just hit and hope percentage crosses. V good player in the making.

    As is Morley. Great finish

  8. Got to be disappointed as we wanna win every game we play but not devastated 

    A good reality check and we’re still on a great run

    Keep the faith; good retention and recruitment this summer and we’ll really be there next season

    be reet 🙂

    Like I said MK day trippers

    Gillingham wheat from the chaff

    Oh missed a game have we 😅

     

    MK did us tactically 

    Stretched us like we do to teams at home and won 2nd balls

    Wigan and Rotherham at home plus yesterday are the only times I think we’ve seen genuinely better teams rather than self sabotage

    V impressed with their Manager. Seems there is one Manning that knows football 😃

    @jules_darby noticed at half time, your company sponsorship photo of Keiron Lee has the wrong squad number 22 on the screen, it should be 20. 

    You must be the first person who’s ever looked at that page 🤣

    Cheers though - duly noted

  11. Back to the game I thought we were alright first half - Fossey caused them all sorts of problems.

    I know what he brought DadBod on but we felt he’d have been better with Dempsey; we seemed to lose a bit in midfield 2nd half and then also lose a bit of our width 2nd half. 

    Good to come away from somewhere like that (incidents aside) against a physical team, in horrendous conditions, and not get beat

    Feel it will bring our players together even more.

    Did it last week against Sunderland didn’t he young Trafford?

    Yeah. Believe he’s subsequently said he’d  been on the end of some stick at their place for Accrington or something similar so had history with them

    Few bottles at their keeper which he made a meal of and he was goading

    pitch invasion is hardly anything major 

    That was nothing to do with it but sadly the chucking stuff is allowing them to conflate the issues. It’s been prevalent recently - from us and at us, and doesn’t help our cause 

    As for their keeper - he knew what he was doing. Interesting that some of their lot are saying Trafford was inflaming their crowd but don’t mention his antics 

  14. Had a few since I lost my hair:

    Anton Ferdinand (thanks Zico)

    Charlie Runkle (also Zico)

    Pepe Reina

    Vin Diesel

    Stavros Flatley

    Little Whitt (was a pic of me with an American lad who’s 6’8/9)

    When I’m hungover - Darth Vader when he’s dying and takes his helmet off 

    Normally depends on my weight at the time, but inevitably they’re chubby baldies and/or folk with big nose or lips 

     

     

  15. I think it works for us that

    Were not ready to go up but how do we not win hit stay together and it feel like a win - like that

    Few weeks ago we’d have capitulated

    Dont win and the fans are still if not even more on side 

    just stop throwing shit at their fans/players; the pitch invasion I get 😇😇

    And fuck the racist bastards; they know what they are
