    Bit difficult because the job they do directly impacts people's health and wellbeing. Plus if they worked to rule it could result in lost public sympathy. If a nurse is helping out in a critical situation you can't expect them to work to rule because someone could die if they do. Similarly even...

    Plus it's not just England fans that will have been watching - plenty of Indian fans in the Uk that will have switched on too. Viewing figures probably affected due to the start time but still sufficient interest I'd have thought.

    I think the thing that perfectly sums up the attitude of how this country works and who it's run for is more: "I have this but no-one else should have it".

    I said I wouldn't get worried until March was over and I stick by that but next three games are absolutely crucial. Need to win two of them and not lose any cos not only are they winnable games but would also give points to our rivals. Anything less than that and we're in trouble cos April...

    Players were clearly spent. Biamou, Dabo, McCallum, even O'Hare. Tired players make errors, physically and mentally. They're unable to close down as quickly. Maybe those players on the bench weren't good enough to win us the game, but they could've been fresh enough to stop us losing it. We...

    It is unrealistic but... Own the Ricoh (at least half of it at least) or Build a new stadium at Warwick Uni?

    I agree with the idea - like you I'm trying to feel positive about the post-Covid era and the opportunities that it provides to change the way we do things. But in reality I see very little happening - it's a Conservative govt and they're called Conservative for a reason - sweeping change is...

    Could be overcompensating to not get angry and sounding too placid. May have give them a bollocking in the changing room but really not considered good man management to do it publicly. Show a united front - if you show signs of distrust or friction within the camp it's pretty much game over...

    A knife is preferable to a gun that's got no ammo left.

    Match Thread Middlesbrough ("H") - Tues 2nd March - 19:00 KO - St. Andrews

    Difference is Dublin was a forward going back, rather than a defnder going forward. So he had that movement etc already and didn't need to use it as much. Osti going forward wouldn't have that natural movement.

    First 15 mins max and Walker looked half decent together. Then played like they'd never met.

    ? Fuck the 5 at the back off then do a formation with 5 at the back?

    But he got so much out of them v Brentford and since them hasn't even tried to repeat that tactic.

    Trouble with the four is Fadz often looks vulnerable in it, but Rose and Hyam are neither in good form to partner osti.

    Which would make you think MR would realise he's playing for draws and often not getting them. So it's not a tactic that's working. What I find baffling is that he did such a great job against Brentford in how to approach that game and then has just abandoned it. It worked against one of the...

    In all honesty none, but I don't see any there either that I think "Christ if we bring him on for someone's who's knackered we're going to lose for sure"

    It is, but it still doesn't explain why a player clearly out of energy isn't replaced with fresh legs. So maybe they're not worth millions but if they've got some energy it's going to be better than a player with none. Not like they're replacing Ronaldo with Ron Aldo from down the road.

    On balance I think it probably is. Two bits of awful defending and we failed to put them under a huge amount of pressure.

    Disappointing after taking the lead. Just slowly let them come back into the game and eventually control it. Bench wasn't strong but even so with a few minutes left and the way it's going, plus some players looking really tired, just try something to get back on level terms. Hopefully will...
