I think I once posted Clarke and Wilson would be a great pair to sign

I doubt myself as I've never been right about owt else

Yeah but even Phil Parkinson is right sometimes so take it with a pinch of salt

Doesn't sound so ridiculous now does it

Comparing Rhodes to Stead? Yep, course it does. 

You claimed Rhodes would do a Rickets and was like Stead; yet 5 years later and he’s had a great start to the season for top of the table Norwich and has scored a few.

give over lad, just admit you were wrong

I've only seen two players play us who looked dangerous with the ball in their own area. Rooney and Ronaldo, I think Rooney could have been better then he was when you think of him at Everton. Smoked and drank now ended up in America.

Hey listen, you were bob on regarding Wilson - absolutely great shout that.

you were wrong about Rhodes though; that was my point then, and remains so now

thanks, not sure I was wrong about Rhodes though, he's not starting for Norwich, and couldn't get in the Sheff Wed team. He's average Champ player at best

He’s definitely been better than average for most of the last 5 years. It went wrong for him in the play offs for Sheff Weds, he was made scapegoat and he never recovered. 

However, he’d have definitely improved us in 2013 and by god he’d do so immeasurably now.

He never made it at the top level but he’s definitely made for the upper echelons of the Championship. Not quite a Jon Stead!

Did remember reading something that Rooney having coco pops for breakfast and his pre-match meal. Know that's a bit comic but can't help thinking that's merely the tip of his poor lifestyle.

Watch those chains!!

Sunderland done me on the fixed odds for £800, I’ll have to settle for the consolation prize of £150. Fecking Wycombe, mind you they took 750 to the game that’s a fair effort.

Rhodes Def dried up at Boro and sheff Weds

Might recover at Norwich but won't be getting close to Wilson any time soon

Walcott scared the shit out of us that day we were 2-0 up they were down to ten. He went through us like a knife through butter and they won 3-2.

Looks like Tiger Taylor will struggle to retain his job

[deane koontz]

I still don't understand this Nations League shit

[Tonge moor green jacket]

All over them.

Should be a couple ahead.

And sterling- he's no Lofthouse!

[Didledee]

First 30 mins was excellent, should be 2 or 3 up

[waffer cup 07]

Should have had a pen. Their keeper clattered Sterling.

[Marc505]

Have there been many atmospheres at the new Wembley for an England game that felt like they had a real edge to them? This still feels just a slight step up from a friendly.

That 2-3 loss to Croatia before Euro 2008 maybe? Think it needs to host a WC or Euros England game, hopefully Euro 2020 semi.

[Didledee]

The most undeserved goal you could see, pfft

England’s and Manchester United’s all time top goal scorers and won every single domestic honour on the table. 

Smoking and drinking might knock 5 years off his life but it made fook all difference on his playing career.
