Looked very very sharp to me against Nuneaton for a lad meant to be a few weeks behind the rest in terms of fitness. Potential goal machine: stick him in the middle, supply him, top 6 here we come :D

"free role" :D

It's a poor Accrington team on paper, even by Accrington standards, but it sounds like we're much better than the last two games. AT's "triangular pegs in octagonal holes" confusion formation is clearly working like a dream.

Wait a minute, that isn't ironic! It would have been ironic if you had 10,000 spoons and thought you just needed one knife, but then it turns out a spoon would have done!

When he was good I loved him, but I don't think he ever strang two good performances together. He was much more effective from the bench, and is a better reader of the game than most of our recent CM's. But he had too many games (especially when starting) where he couldn't pass it five yards. It...

Players with injury records like his don't get a positive reception from many fans here, but agreed: he has some pace and is versatile.

It'd be a news with 95% of the content comprising The Olympics, though! Naturally that means less coverage is given to news events due to the increased Olypics coverage during the news programme. Even 4 News and Newsnight are blighted by it. I'll just have to assume that less world events are...

Yeah that's a list they always publish: normally half the players on it have already signed a new deal at their present club or for a new club by the time they publish it.

I feel the same way about R5. Sure it's a sports network, but it's meant to be sport and news/current affairs. Switching the entire station over to The Olympics from dawn 'til 1am is a bit much. Especially when they bang on about their special "pop up" Olympics Special station-well, use that...

Nah, he signed for Swindon ages ago.

Although I doubt many would recognise Barton.

Still more questions than answers at this stage!

Yeah, he really misses the Sectarian "banter" ;)

Sorry, just spotted this-when did I call you uneducated? Did you have a go at me before the Southampton game? 'Cos I'm talking in person, not on here, and seriously, they were brain dead twats who had no idea who our owners are.. Torch for one can vouch that I actually gave nobody any grief for...

That's the one! Some of the first "grown up" books I ever read were the Tales of the Unexpected short stories. They were much better than the TV series, although Brian Blessed is always a good thing. Dahl also wrote in his book on Democracy that true direct Democracy could be achieved in the...

Surely he's about to be sold/released to another club like McPake due to his high wages? We can't afford Wood.

He's a composed passer rather than an "attacking midfielder".

Indeed I'd say the difference between us under Thorn last season compared to the season before wasn't so much pace as tempo. The best passing sides move the ball at a high tempo, dragging opposition players out of position and making them work. Whereas last season we plodded around, making us...

He was actually very highly rated a few years ago. I remember asking my mate how this obscure youngster was running the midfield against us when he pointed out that he was being linked with a big move to Liverpool. I'd wondered what had happened to him, but that was obviously the injury. Given...

This reminds me of that Roald Dahl short story where the woman murders her husband and then serves it up as roast to the investigating police officer.
