We’ve all done it!

Wayne Burnett?

Not as good as last Saturday’s!

Think you’ve nailed it there. As per. Whatever happened to!

And you were doing so well.

Yet CMG started and was impressive in our best performance / result of last season. If he’s fit he’s a threat, for my money, but hasn’t yet got going sadly due to injury.

That nobhead RUReady went quiet when we turned it around. BWFC doesn’t need “fans” like you. Go and find something else to do with your miserable time & life. Go on you Whitemen!

We didn’t go route one. We played through them a number of times such as Maghoma’s chance. The difference was that we started playing the progressive pass better and linking up…and it was a joy to behold!

No direct assist and they did indeed mess up but if Evatt ihad dentified that the centre of their defence was susceptible to that kind of pass from Santos, and set us up to pick up the loose ball, then it was a pretty savvy tactic I'd say.

Do you mean the “straight ball” from Santos that resulted in the only and match-winning goal tonight?

Robert Miles - Children. I’d go with that also.

RIP Neil. Condolences to his family

He did, undoubtedly. But never mention Rodney Jack within his earshot!

Didn't seem to affect Buckley much with his peach of a cross for Noone's winner.

You’ve got me! No, I trust I’m keeping my opinion balanced and fair (!) but I sincerely believe he was a poor excuse for a manager (see his record post-BWFC also) and human being, Apart from that, I don’t really mind him.

You’re bang on there, Jules. There wasn’t any feel good factor by the end of his reign. Anyone saying anything to the contrary was either not there or is having memory issues (no offence if so!). The fact there was a nucleus of a decent team (albeit without a decent keeper on the books, functioning midfield and anyone to take the goalscoring pressure off Andy Walker - all rather remiss of Mr Neal) is not up for debate. It was though blindingly obvious that he didn’t have a clue what to do to fix the gaps in the team and change the mindset of the squad into a winning one - as the record books show, he was taking us backwards. Hence the anger / frustration on the terraces and why Phil Neal was no “turning point” or “good” manager (he left us, position-wise, after six and a half years almost exactly where he picked us up) - the only thing that saved us and gives Neal-sympathisers the opportunity to peddle the old “solid foundation” line was the inspired appointment of Bruce Rioch, in my humble opinion!

Oh he took us down to 4th all right. And was taking us back there - finishing just 6 points above relegation in his last season, losing 3 of last 4 games, etc, etc. It’s a fallacy Neal put us in a position to build. Bruce Rioch transformed the culture and aspirations of club and imo we have him solely to thank for putting us on the up.

MancWanderer also put Phil Neal in the same bracket as Parky. Ergo his rating criteria is somewhat flawed!

He was booed onto the pitch for Cardiff in their game against us before Christmas. For what! Being one of, at best, a handful of players who always gave 100% in our relegation season?

David Reeves

He needed Mick Brown to sort things out but he was absent after getting his arm stuck in his mower. Gardening leave, if you will.

Andy Walker wasn't there at the time so moot point.
