    God Bless Them Across the M69....

    Nice prediction, I feel furnished with an eloquent opinion.

    God Bless Them Across the M69....

    If I was a Leicester fan, I would be deeply disappointed in anything but three points at home to Coventry. Mind you, I would be fairly disappointed that the maximum level of banter I could muster would be some tired old bollocks about the number of Coventry fans. It is no wonder we are shit when...

    Fans Support of Andy Thorn: A sign of just how far we have fallen?

    Jesus. If you don't think Thorn's management warrants his immediate removal as manager, if you suspect there are plenty of managers out there who could do better but you don't think SISU are likely to stump up the cash, if you have a viewpoint that contradicts Sick Boy, you support SISU. Case...

    A simply poll question re: Andy Thorn

    I think the proviso of 'if we lose to Barnsley' is relevant. It is not a 'Thorn Stays / Thorn Goes' argument so much as it is a 'look, we used to spank Barnsley every season, if we lose to them again can we change whatever we can... the Board? No, well at least the manager. And I'm swapping...

    So how well SHOULD Thorn be doing?

    Both sides argue their points vociferously on here, nothing wrong with that. I just tire of the same shouts repeatedly doing the rounds, but if I was that bothered I would have stopped passing comment. I don't begrudge anyone their opinion, was just looking for a bit of balance from both parties...

    So how well SHOULD Thorn be doing?

    What I think people have said (taken out of context in this particular slant on the argument) is that Thorn's performance should be taken in the context of SISU. That it is largely unfair to compare his win ratio to previous managers. That people need to take things in context. With contrary...

    So how well SHOULD Thorn be doing?

    No. I am saying that the vast majority, on either side of the divide, can accept both sides have their accuracies. I am saying that most of the 'Thorn In' brigade do not absolve him of every last portion of blame. That he can do wrong in their eyes. That he is not untouchable. That they do not...

    So how well SHOULD Thorn be doing?

    No. Stop, read, consider. There are startingly few who absolve Thorn of any blame whatsoever. Find one on here who says he has not made a single error or cost us a single point. And your point that SISU are only to blame because they hired Thorn just pisses over my theory that there are few...

    So how well SHOULD Thorn be doing?

    Can I make what I would have considered a blindingly obvious point..? The fans who do not want Thorn to be sacked at this point do not think he is 100% divorced from blame for our current predicament. If there is a single fan on here who believes that Andy Thorn as manager has not been...

    A simply poll question re: Andy Thorn

    You say that, but this has categorically been one of my worst ever wanks.

    Why AT is a good manager!

    They won't like the use of 'could', Rob. That shade of grey might just confuse the fuck out of what is would appear to clearly be a black and white argument.

    A simply poll question re: Andy Thorn

    I must pay brief thanks for the post on here which reads more like childish name calling ('you can't put mature arguments together', 'pitiful' and 'I feel sorry for you') than most and STILL manages to bemoan the ability of the interlocutor's debating skills. Bravo, sir. I only hope no one feels...

    Parting of the sea

    A constructive and forthright exchange of views. I like where this is going, I can see real progress being made this Sunday night on the whole 'Thorny issue'. Good luck, gentlemen.

    Why did anyone predict anything but a City defeat?

    I can't bring myself to like this, but am in agreement.

    Tonights Team

    The thing about Platt is, if he has an off day, he is liable to look awful. If his flick ons and hold up play is off, he can't really offer anything else. No pace (which impacts on his closing down and ability to make tackles), no real eye for a pass or huge goal threat. This is why I thought he...

    Does at walk on water - ???

    I think both sides of the divide look at things in rather too much of a black and white way. As a Cov fan who doesn't consider himself 'Thorn Out', I would categorically state that my support is not unconditional or unquestioning. We are bottom of the League, of course there are serious...

    Does at walk on water - ???

    This. People who don't necessarily subscribe to 'Thorn Out' often think this. He is not blameless, he is not invincible and people should really choose which accusations to throw at him and at the people who support him. Like anything in life, look at his performance in context and this...

    Does at walk on water - ???

    Fucking hell, don't you get tired of this?! A discussion about anything features a 'Thorn Out / Thorn has his hands tied' thread, does it need direct incarnation again? You could have paused and written a rather innocuous article about one of the blokes who tends the pitch at half time and it...
