Dion had a massive weapon..

More incisive analytical debate from the brains at Sky Blues Talk, I see :facepalm:

All hope long gone. But on the plus side, I'm looking forwards to Football Manager and FIFA next season. It'll be nice to take us from L1, and they'll inevitably over-rate us and have us as one of the stronger sides in the division.

Clive Platt?

I'd take the "Dream Team" combo of McAllister, Reid and Butcher in joint-command over that orange git any day!

With Freddy, Cody and Ken on the bench...are we sure it can take the strain? It's not our bench remember..we'd have to pay for any repairs :p

Is the shot people are claiming he should have caught the rather stunning save he made down to his left? Because he shouldn't have tried to catch that, and he actually pushed it well clear of the danger area. I don't think he did much wrong yesterday, and I'm a critic in general. Yet another...

Yeah but did you see Clive Platt against Leamington? On that showing he'd have struggled to get a place on the Brakes bench! Yet he is probably..no, certainly our second best striker. Although Dunn looked nervous in pre-season, he hasn't when he's played for the first team. You can write a guy...

If Wrexham go up there will only be one division between them. If we draw them in the Tinpot Windshield Trophy, we can compare them! At least Shearer once save a penalty for us..but I think Murphy is a decent shot-stopper. He's not the worst in the division by any means (that's probably the...

It was like Deegan tried for a cpouple of games, but then turned into a pile of crap after the knock that kept him out. He honestly hasn't done a thing to merit selection in his last 3 appearances. I heard the rumour of his tantrum after he got the hook at half-time; his passing was so atrocious...

So you mean...he hasn't lost the dressing room, despite rumour-mongers on here in the past? :D

Remember Thorn talking about the young and threadbare squad and saying "we need help?" Well, Ken on the bench is the help SISU have offered in response!

All the conspiracy theories about why they are doing this are missing the bleeding-obvious. They aren't doing this because they have s special secret plan in mind. They are doing this because they don't have a clue about "soccer" (ahem). Most of us know something about the game, and love it...

Ken Dulieu didn't manage us superbly last season like AT did though, did he? Analogy breaks down rather fatally at that point I'm afraid.

It was alright, agreed with many off the sentiments and he wears his heart on his sleeve. But as far as calling it journalism goes, I wouldn't particularly place it above some of the more articulate ruminations on this forum.

Finally, someone who appreciates that what the manager says to the public certainly isn't what he says to the players. It's been a while! :wave:

Well he claimed to have solved The Troubles in Northern Ireland last week, so yes, he certainly is suffering from delusions of grandeur. Totally agree with your "line that you don't cross" comment. He's broken the sanctity of the dressing room now. I can't see us recovering from such a mortal...

Yep, Sheff was crap, I've had enough of him now. 1 good game in 15 doesn't make you inconsistent...it just makes you shit. Gael was a breath of fresh air when he came on. Thought we missed Hussey tremendously, and Wood's headed clearance for the goal was pathetic. But as far as the manager...

If you are a Dulieu man rather than a Thorn man, I question your integrity. Wishing Ken on him is worse than wishing he had cancer.

I hope you shared some with Ginger :)
