Some of the decision making and control in the final third was very poor. It's hard to know how critical you can be, though, this is a team that's conceded 12 all season. However you want top look at it, and however hard they are to watch, that's remarkable. They didn't deserve to win, but give...

What a fucking horrible team they are. It'll probably be enough to get them promoted, but fucking hell, you need a damn sight more than that in the Premier League. The last two (for different reasons) have shown we're not at the level to make a serious bid for promotion yet.

Simms for EMC & Wright on the left, pls.

Jesus fucking Christ.

It was as honking a decision as you will see, tbf.

No. Wright was more advanced than that defender when EMC had the shot.

That was ok. They're a good side; got lucky with the goal, but really should have had another. Ref's dreadful, and he's lucky that the game's being played in a decent spirit. A more fractious pair of teams and he'd have lost it completely.

I disliked Roy Wegerle. He was underwhelming, but it was probably more that we got him and Blackburn got Kevin Gallacher. I did not consider this acceptable. Noel Whelan pissed me off because he was such a waster.

He was exceptional for Southampton, but they played everything through him. They also compensated for the fact that he wasn't going to offer the defensive side by making sure that they had players who would cover for it. Le Tissier is one of the best, and most exciting, players I have seen play...

It's mainly the third goal here that's the reason I no longer have the slightest confidence in Collins. Yes, the initial mistake is Thomas', but Collins bottles this. It looks for all the world like he's afraid to challenge and get hurt. Maybe this is unfair,but that's what it looks like. First...

I definitely remember him scoring the winner in a dull game against Sheffield Wednesday.

Beautiful to see that absolute maggot le Boeuf tangled in the back of the net. Should have added him to the Hate thread. Some terrible editing in that video, but I remember seeing that save of Hedman's at the c5.50 mark from behind the goal, and being stunned by it.

Yes. He was worse. Novelty signings to boost exposure, I don't think it was footballing reasons.

This also worries me. Even comparatively straightforward saves seem to go back into the danger area a disproportionate amount. Even when he was performing well last year, I never felt comfortable with him, and thought he got lucky he wasn't punished more for this. I understand there may be a...

I got my hand to one that Noel Whelan spanked into the crowd once. It stung for about 20 minutes afterwards. I remember once there was a guy in the West Terrace leaning on a barrier reading his programme whist the players were warming up; Gary McAllister thrashed one towards goal, which missed...

Cobi Jones was mentioned on another thread. Was he rated by anyone? He could run very fast in a straight line, I'll give him that.

Fat Ron was as bad a manager as we had in the top division. Utter dross.

Speedie. Kevin Gallacher.

The photo in that article. There's a cameraman on the pitch. Wft? That looks and sounds awful, but indoor football can be genuinely exciting. Futsal's pretty popular in many parts of the world isn't it, I think. I remember the Soccer Six in the late 80s; that was fun (I was there when David...

Playing ice hockey, I think.
