    Bile ad nauseum

    I would HOPE for a top six finish, but do not know enough about the other squads in the League or our new recruits to say I EXPECT a top six finish, minimum. Kudos to you if you are better informed about the strength in depth of the entire league and have seen enough in our pre-season friendles...

    Bile ad nauseum

    Fair enough, I don't know enough about our new players or other League 1 squads to say where we shall finish in the League, but I suspect we will fare better than bottom. Out of interest, supposing that you really think we are less equipped to deal with a season in League 1 now than we were in...

    Bile ad nauseum

    There are a few things which you have written there which I could take umbrage with, but the one that jumped out is the fact you don't think that we are better equipped to make a fist of things in League 1 this season than we should have been in the Championship last season. I don't get it, can...

    The Thorn issue.

    Not quite as many as those who have quoted others as doing so.

    The Thorn issue.

    Apologies, just saw that this was said only yesterday. I'll let you off. You are still an unbalanced writer, though. That is as insulting as I will get today.

    The Thorn issue.

    You are at it again. No one on this thread has stated Thorn is the best manager since Jimmy Hill. Stop using things you once saw as a counter argument. Have the intellect to discuss things that are written in the here and now.

    Hats off Andy Thorn

    Since you asked three times, I will say yes - but must warn you I will not see it tonight and maybe not this weekend as I am off. I look forward to standing corrected, you are bang right and it means something.

    Hats off Andy Thorn

    The format is thus... Discredit the alternative with spurious quotes ('they say we have the best manager in the world') and hope that they have more time on their hands than to check your quotes ('statistically, we have the worst manager in the league... just don't ask me to name 18 of them...

    Smile if you have received your Yeovil tickets

    I'm sure this has been covered, but what is our allocation. Mate's got me a ticket, stopping over to get on it, bring it on!

    Big Fish in a Small Pond

    People get too hung up on 'big club / bigger club / biggest club'. It is not what the OP is saying. Big fish in a small pond? Probably, yes. It is a turn of phrase. The size of the ground, the fact that we are playing at our lowest level for several decades, the fact that we are a decent sized...

    Big Fish in a Small Pond

    He is talking about big fish in the small pond that is League 1.

    Nile Ranger

    I really hope he has a good season / his confidence goes up / he chips in with a handful of goals and assists / fans start getting behind him rather than on his back, but... ... your question is too difficult to answer. Possibly Norwich.

    Jennings...

    It is almost completely irrelevant to the opposition's goal. Before this season, that is...

    Jennings...

    Look at Rangers' situation, of course players are expendable. Does it mean he couldn't have done a job in Scotland for them this year? No. Also, for all the shit the SPL gets, fans of a team like Rangers - winning the League again last season - may set their sights a little higher than those of...

    Jennings...

    I get the impression that no news = bad news with Jennings. From the sound of him, he would have been a good player for us.

    AT away from home

    And yet the only counter response you could come up with was about the fact it was written in one paragraph. Good job that similar deflections were not at all what I was referring to initially and you have pissed all over my metaphorical chips. I concede to your wisdom, humility and, most of...

    AT away from home

    If it was difficult for everyone else, I will edit it. If it is just you who has struggled, I will let you take it on a couple more times and see if you can talk about any of the points raised, rather than bringing up grammatical issues on a football forum.

    AT away from home

    No, employing paragraphs may be part of a job which involves the written word. As would punctuation - such as commas - and capital letters, but I won't be picking people up on that because it is a childish thing to say on a football forum.

    AT away from home

    As wonderfully to the point as ever. And way to burn me, lordsummerisle, my lack of paragraphs on a single post. With cutting satire like that, I might just return to work (where I am obliged to write in paragraphs because it is a job and not a football forum).
