I'm also glad we didn't (I always felt we need two good full backs for both sides as it's a physically very demanding position). But IF he had, I think the extra game time for KKH would have seen him settle into the side and be showing his worth too. Maybe not offering quite as much as MvE, but...

Can't do that. If he nutted anyone he'd headbutt them in the bollocks.

I do now certainly believe we're good enough to go up. But that doesn't necessarily mean we will . Too long to go and too many uncontrollable variables to be that confident yet. We look a decent side even in matches we're not at our best but we're coming up to probably our hardest run of games...

Still think it's mad that the person who has to pick the team, tactics and coach the players doesn't get the final say on who those players might be. Instead someone detached day to day from that is. Of course a manager can screw up signings. If they screw up too many they should get the sack...

And start of the season I was thinking he might be surplus to requirements in the PL and we could maybe prise him away to be rotation with Kitching and Thomas....

Midget of the match?

Saw that and it instantly reminded me of this

The Elephant and Castle.

Probably not popcorn chicken.

I would have played hardball with them and said if we're bailing you out, we're getting control and ownership and you're giving us those shares for nothing. If you don't those shares will be worth nothing anyway. And will be increasing regulation and tightening tax rules. If you don't like the...

Actually there was a 100% guarantee for retail savings at failed banks during the crisis to prevent panic. And aren't we taught to not put all our eggs in one basket? So if you had over £30k in one bank, start using another one and spread your risk and guarantee more of your money. As you're...

Isn't the whole premise of financial systems and capitalism that you let the market decide? So by their own rules if they're going to collapse they should be left to do so and whoever remains gets to fight over the scraps. If that system is going to collapse unless it gets bailed out by another...

Do you not agree there should be accountability? And people had savings of up to £80k guaranteed by the government anyway. And I was far more in treating them as they would in their own sector - dog eat dog. "You're bankrupt, so we offer you nothing. Your other option is go out of business."...

But surely you have to take into account other factors. For example a player might be 6 yards out but have four or five players between him and the goal wheras another time be one on one with the keeper or have an open goal. I guess the idea is that over millions of shots it averages out, but I...

The banking sector says hello.

And many of us were sceptical about what they would do or might achieve. For a lot of us it was more hope than expectation. And this is after only a year. Why did it take Tory voters 14 to realise they were nothing more than incompetent chancers on the take? If anything the argument you're...

A big part of that is the increased burden of social care on local authorities. A higher proportion of the costs have been foisted on them without an appropriate increase in funding while actual demand for it has risen rapidly. There's other factors too of course but if you want to look for a...

Well it is because I'd forgotten he was manager there.

AI remember you.

Stoke away is always likely to be difficult, plus they're riding high to and in some very good form last few games. MR knows most of our players and will be aware of their strengths and weaknesses. He'll be aware that we struggle to break down a solid defensive set-up, and being a naturally...
