Couldn't believe the searches. Sums up the attitude to us, the paying customer. I made a throw-away remark about "what, are you searching us all for banners?", and one of the goons said "yep". This is the conversation I then had, word for word; Me:"So who told you to search everyone and...

What the world is asking (I know I'm not the first)-but no expert can answer: if they're travellers, why don't they travel? Surely staying in the same place all the time is contrary to their very essence? Wolves should never have evicted Freddy from Southend, though.

McSheffrey had his best season after leaving us. Babb didn't get worse after leaving us, he was just never good enough for Liverpool in the first place-along with Dicks, Ruddock and the other donkeys that were making up their defence at the time. And nothing can legislate for getting a post in...

Yes they have.

I thought it was 25 + any home nation trained player under 21? Maybe I imagined it. That's part of the problem; they'll hang on to relatively cheap youngsters who could do a job for the first team. Seeing Lansbury come on as a sub against us the other night really did rub our noses in it...

You'd think so, but the amount they are making available isn't even enough to coax Paul Watson and Andy Impey back :laugh:

Harsh sacking, he'd overachieved up until this season-which has only unrealistically raised expectations.

Yes. Yes it is. Although "early" implies that they will reach the status of out greatest ever strike partnership at some point, it's just a matter of time-which it isn't. Frankly, they can't even dream of reaching Rosario/Quinn type levels. Best we can hope for is that they're the best...

So much for the board statements regarding "quality loan signings" then. It's blatantly obvious that they are only giving Thorn a next to useless budget. We won't get anyone worth having on, what, 3k p/w? So, no change there. Every time they let us down like this it's another kick in the gut...

Yep, certain of it. Unlike Man City-theirs went up!

True, but a run of good form helped with those clubs. Do we really think we'll be looking at a glorious bouncebackability-promotion season? We are a bit like Scunthorpe last season, and they aren't doing brilliantly this. Difference is, they had no fans to lose!

As far as the second half goes, it reminds me a bit of something Strachan said (all too often)-that starting to play when you're 2 goals down is a lot easier because the opposition have done the hard work-they sit back and invite pressure, looking for the sucker third on the counter...

Pretty safe to say that "McLean and his expert opinion" is not worth reading.

He wasn't necessarily first choice in those first 3 seasons at Livingstone, hence not necessarily injured for those. The final Livingstone season ended in January when we signed him, so he was fit for that too up to then. That means he was injured for around half of the previous Scottish...

I don't think many are worried about Thorn so much as worried in general. Our squad has a very similar look to the Southampton one that was relegated a few years ago-plenty of youthful promise, playing attractive football, but precious little experience, know-how or physical presence. Not...

He was fine until we were about to sign him. Midas touch, us.

He was certainly highly rated in his BSP days and was versatile back then too-he's played defensive midfield and elsewhere in defence. He's played a lot of games and made the BSP Team of The Season in the past. Could be a good signing, similar to Hussey but maybe with slightly less potential...

When fit McPake was absolutely superb. I'm not saying he was better than Dann, nor did I ever, but he was certainly a top Championship defender. Players usually pick up slight knocks during the recovery process from such long lay-offs. It's a blow, as I desperately want to see him in the side-we...

Who is it? My PC just hates the CT site and won't open the link.
