Don't worry about it... he was about to commit hari-kari after the Middlesboro game... then "everything's gonna be alright" after Reading... Next win he'll say we'll be challenging for the playoffs.

After today we'll have played 5 (or is it 6?) of the top 7... the next run of 10 fixtures is kinder. If we are in the bottom three after 20 games i think the panic will be more justified. At the moment we are probably doing par for the course (ie clearly outclassing a couple of better-regarded...

Ran the Bedworth Parkrun course again this morning. Much improved on a fornight ago with an 18:37. Still not quite where i want to be, but only 3 seconds off a pb, and without other runners to chase down, i'm fairly happy with that.

I watch most of my foreign football (in fact most of my football) via Bet365, which has absolutely no commentary the vast majority of the time. Far better experience. I said it recently in another thread... this is too dangerous for the likes of Sky, who need to keep employing hysterical...

I think the assumption that Sky hate us is seen very much through "Sky Blue eyes". Yes, the coverage last friday was rather heavily weighted towards Reading... but the fact is they are/were pissing the league, probably expected to destroy us, and have been a much higher-profile team than us in...

I think i'd settle for 7, so long as the defeats don't come against Forest or Derby.

This may well be the case... but switch on Sky News, BBC News, RT, (other news channels are of course available).... and you'd be forgiven for thinking that there is far more condemnation for the nation of France for allowing the publication of cartoons (by an independent newspaper), than a...

I really should know better than to get involved in this thread... But i think the main issue is, whenever there is an act of terror which appears to have originated from within the Muslim (world) community, there appears to be very little condemnation from within the powers-that-be (such as...

Totally agree on the flag, it is shocking... but it's no worse than anything other clubs churn out. Anyone got that video of the Reading song!?!?

If you're earning 80k a year then its a pretty good indicator that the entire world is fucked.

Must admit I thought Godden should have been taken off when Hamer came off, which shows how much I know..! Thought Biamou was excellent.

It's small margins as always. Really don't want to piss on anyone's chips... But we could have been a goal down really early when Dabo passed it straight across his goal, and you'd think that would have been game more or less gone. A bit of good fortune makes such a difference. Not taking...

Telfer started poorly and took some terrible abuse from the boo-boys. But in that really good period we had, i think it's massively ignored how effective he was... did a lot of "dirty work" which allowed players with arguably more technical ability to play. Underrated.

Probably not. But equally I don't see us being 6pts adrift either. Neither of which are too relevant at this stage of the season (obviously preferable to not be adrift, of course!)

Rather unlikely. Same as we could also find ourselves 3 points clear of the bottom 3 if things go perfectly...

Club night last night, and first club session on the track since last winter... 300mtrs hard, 100mtrs steady. Session was 12 reps, but i strung it out to 14..... although didn't feel particularly spritely, so may forego my planned 5km track effort on saturday, for another "sharpener" track rep...

I'd imagine the prize-money for getting there (a much smaller model than the Champions League for instance), and additional tv revenue would more than make up for it. I'm not trying to back them here... just thinking realistically. That said, i don't think European rugby will save them, nor...

That is true. Not been competitive for 5 years now... But still have a go on the bags at the gym every so often. Unless you are looking to be competitive I wouldn't worry about legs being shot etc... It's a fantastic way to condition the body and learn something. Of course, there's no...

I have no real knowledge on the subject, but I'd imagine the main benefit for Wasps is the fact they finished top 4, and I assume therefore gained qualification to the top European competition next season. I'd expect this would be more significant than whether they won/lost today in the grand...
