The point at which it became a distraction was when the idiots starting over-reacting by taking banners and removing fans. Once again, the fans who protested were also the ones who sang to support the team the loudest. Thorn refers to this in his interview when after mentioning the distraction...

Guy on CWR said that bedsheets would never be something that can get a fire certificate. Can we try putting that to the test, or can someone please start mass-producing them on a commercial scale replete with fire certificates? That may be the only way to get them to admit that it's what on them...

The Boy Dunn Good would be a better headline! Cracking save straight after coming on. For a few minutes I thought we'd signed Petr Cech! Very encouraging debut by the lad. Anyone know what Murphy's injury is?

Poor lamb, that must be real drag-working at the weekend! Maybe the lads will be inspired by his glowing presence and put on a real show for him!

Maybe David Bell has an identical twin who actually plays many of his games for him? This twin of his is however terrible at football. When he scores a 25 yard screamer today, that'll be the real one ;)

I'd assume that all out of contract players were offered terms (erm..maybe not Freddy!). Bell and McPake snatched their hands off at the first offer, Cranie and Clingan said "thanks, but I'm keeping my options open". That's partly why selling Turner for 750k seems dumb to me: surely we should...

If you'd read what I was talking about (and seeing as you quote me, I'm assuming it's a direct response), it was SISU reducing all costs until we are actually making a profit. As such, the wage bill would have to be reduced to maybe a max wage of around 3-4k, and average of around 1.5-2k. I...

WOW, so you actually want SISU to be making money whilst we slide down the divisions now? Incredible.

I'm a bit surprised that so many have selected Bellamy. He was utter tosh for us on the pitch, regardless of what he later said off the pitch. The number of gilt edged chances he missed was incredible, and he didn't seem to have recovered from his broken leg the previous season. Based on his...

Meanwhile, 5 players were playing in the park, as McAllister refused to let them train with the team. Most of them promptly became our best players under Black. A terrible manager, shame Villa didn't keep him.

Man that is a depressing thought. I thought it couldn't get much worse, but they could have our balls in a vice like that for years. Although the whole point of companies like SISU is to get in and out with a quick profit..a long drawn out drip-feed isn't really their way of making money. Don't...

And I've just read this..well, I'm told the team will be back in January and was very persistent on deadline day. So we'll see. Just don't go making any bets that Keogh won't be a Prem player soon, unless you are very wealthy!

Agreed that Roland was different class, but actually, Keogh could have joined a Premiership team on deadline day. And one that plays passing football at that. So he is rated in the game!

Well put chiefdave. Pretty much how I see it. I assume the vision is to make us a lean, mean, saleable machine. But surely the likelehood of them ever making money back-or indeed making us a break-even business-will only be hindered by relegation? Unless the logic is that it's cheaper to run a...

Doubt there's anything in this one, hope not! Paynter has failed terribly since making the move to Leeds. I think I'd go with Roy, Clive and Freddy as backup rather than Paynter. He's also very unpopular with the Leeds fans, from what I can establish, for being utter rubbish. 1 good L1 season is...

Sure, I know, but I was just making an analogy to explain why I don't "just accept" things. It may look hopeless, resistance may be futile, but plenty of people fight against the odds.

If you like, but typed with a smile on my face :D
