I was being ironic. Whoosh!! That's the sound of the pun going right over your head.

I'd say he's been in our top 3 players, easily, and delivered more consistently than anyone else. To say he was lazy and not tracking back is entirely missing the point. He's lost a yard of pace and has never been a defensive player. If you have a problem with him being a crap defender, have...

Stop being such a grammer/spelling nancy!

End is harsh on Bell. Given recent form, I'd go with Colin.

He did for a couple of games when he first game back in, but not any more..last few efforts have been incredibly lazy. Odd as you'd thought he'd respond more to Thorns style.

Yep., Hussey has composure, doesn't dive in. He makes plenty of firm tackles, too. Aint seen him skinned in ages. Bloody love McPake, my Player of The Year last season. Just hope he can get back from the injury.

He's been in and out-I said today that he was a "one in three" player, and the bloke in front of me said "More like one in thirty-three!". Having said that, he was "on" today alright. Some great stuff, although he did over-elaborate at times. I really think it's the lack of reserve team-it takes...

I was at the Sheff U game and it was very different. We played it short, but at very high tempo. It was classic 442. The chances were hurried, wheras today our moves were more flowing and had more guile-epitomized by Sammys glorious passing, and a return to form (and fitness)? from Baker. And...

If you'd have been told there was a promotion chasing team on display, you'd have assumed it was us, no doubt. Not that Reading were bad-they just spent most of the game having the play dictated to them. This side would be top 8 if we can just keep it together-and that's with Quirke in for...

Agreed, first time I've wanted one since '88. It looks superb on the pitch, and particularly in the sunshine. It almost dazzles, but it's really strong for such a pale shade.

To the OP, Quirke did all that was asked of him today, looks a great prospect and loves the club. The save lowdown 1st half was superb! Loved his dummy-and the way he bollocked the senior pro's around him when they deserved it. Re: Westwood, I reckon it's Celtic. Kris Commons has done ok out...

Yeah, I can imagine he got a lot of banter in the changing room and training for that! He was gutted, but hey, he got up there-he really is a threat bombing on, and links superbly with King (who I think does wonders for his game) and McSheffrey, with Aron joining in. They weave some pretty...

Hi Tankie, good to see you, you brightened up the CT forum with your pearls of wisdom-welcome aboard! This is a better forum than that was anyway. Good vibes.

It does him too! The interview posted on here last night with him was awesome though, an ambitious and determined young man who spoke very well and is passionate about his teamates. I like the bit where he talks about competing with Keogh, but equally how he was a great role model. Good news...

Done. Good luck.

Well, on the positive-he couldn't sign a contract that hadn't been offered to him. At least there is an outside chance of it now, and Thorn getting the job must enhance it a bit. One thought...Westwood maintained for ages that he never actually got the previous contract offer-it "never...

Thanks for that really good listen. I just well up whenever I hear Thorn interviewed. He's so bloody sharp, doesn't miss a thing. "So with contracts being offered, you'll be looking ahead to planning next season now?" "No, it's not about next season-it's about Saturday. This club hasn't...

I think sorting out Northern Rock is a bit more substantial than anything Dhinsa has on his C.V., TBH. PLUS Anyone using the "calm down, dear" line is asking for trouble right now. Don't make me mistake you for David Cameron..

I wouldn't dare to imply that any of the Crazy Gang were gay..the brother of one of them, yes, that's common knowledge, and his story is a tragedy...well, maybe John Scales, too. But not Vinny, Thorny, Wise, Fash, Cork, Sanchez etc..now that was a hard team. I'll get me coat.

Tell more, what have you heard?! My own long-running conspiracy (good) is that Thorn is their man, Hoffmans' quite a long way down the path (not exactly trying to hide anything), and the contract offers today are no coincidence. I may be wrong, but you have to dream. The vids awesome..that's...
