It's the area he's made by far the biggest improvement in. Previously he lacked discipline positionally, frequently caught out pressing high & leaving massive gaps behind. That's when he'd make daft, cynical fouls because he was out of the game. Last season he averaged far more fouls per game...

No doubting his pedigree but he's had a torrid time lately & far too many red flags over his injury history etc. looks an absolute shadow of the keeper he used to be. He was only on the bench last week, they preferred the young lad Bilokapic to him.

Yes! I liked it too. I believe S2 is coming in April.

Quite. Why play one player slightly out of position when you could put 4 or 5 into roles they've never played before &/or change formation & system to one we have zero familiarity with? Good old footy fans 🤣

Think he unboxes stuff from Amazon for a living or something. Hence why he punches like this:

Yeah, that's kind of correct but it is more nuanced than most realise. For example if the foul was trying to stop a counter-attack or similar then yes, no need to issue a yellow card as by playing advantage the offender hasn't succeeding in preventing the attack. In certain other situations...

It was very much tongue in cheek. Proper clubs would never sign a GK based on a Clean Sheet record.

Amputating his arm seems a bit extreme then...

Not Ben Wilson?

If by hitting him possession turns over or by hitting him the attacking team gets a promising attack then you give a drop ball. In that instance last night there was no need, Hamer basically played a 1-2 with him.

Yes but we retained possession, doesn't need to stop the game unless we have gained a significant advantage from it. He actually gave us a more promising position although, as @SBAndy says you can't score direct from a drop ball anyway. Had it have deflected in or something though the ref would...

No reason that should have been a drop ball anyway, another odd decision. I imagine PNE would have been fuming had he scored.

Selling Vincelot so that he could bring in Jordan Turnbull was (predictably) a daft decision too. That said, I think he's a decent manager & done a really good job in some very trying circumstances at some clubs. The post Xmas slumps are crazy though.

Well, you just look at the amount of shots & the quality of shots they face rather than just clean sheets. Or do we believe that Reice Charles-Cook is our best ever goalkeeper?

Absolute legend. 💔

With the way global warming is going that's probably realistic.

On O'Nien, these are just last night... Ignore the Ogbene flop in the first clip, that's not even O'Nien (or barely even a foul) but can't link the second vid without it for some reason. Sunderland fans don't even think they're fouls btw.

£100 fine & some community service. Only banned from football for 4 years too (why is it not life?). Given he admitted assaulting Ramsdale & also throwing numerous coins it's a remarkably soft sentence.

@ccfctommy Looks like the tweet you linked has been deleted but here's the video again. Sounds like he's been identified but whoever this is should be doing some serious jail time.

Yeah... Been to both clubs many times & never had any issues but both have a bit of a reputation. Almost went last night but thankfully didn't. From what I understand Nuneaton fans were throwing flares pretty much from the off & once they went 2-0 down threw them into the Tamworth fans which...
