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

    Nice to see Hamer and O'hare back. Looks like MR is willing to give this a good go. Also James dropped, clearly MR doesn't think much of him ;)

    Old Arcade and PC Games

    Always liked the dry humour in it, although looking back I think some of it could well be considered racist now. That bloody goat! Played the whole series 1-5 and Steel Sky (not the new one). Tend to play P&C games at Xmas with my sister. Quite liked the Last Crown (still waiting for the...

    Strikers next season

    Depends on budget/availability etc. i've said keep walker, Godden and Max and sign 1 but there are caveats to it. Godden has his injury issues and IF someone we willing to pay a half decent fee for him I'd be tempted to take the money and look to see who else is available. Similar with Max...

    Defensive reinforcements

    I voted to sign Osti (not likely), keep Rose and Hyam (may as well as we've got a year option so at the very least might get a fee for him), persevere with Drysdale and sign another defender of 2.

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

    Assuming James is in there to to reach our quota it's an interesting thought about O'Hare playing more up top, with hamer probably playing more advanced than normal for him to try and get passes through to the front two. I've no doubt O'hare would do the chasing etc job Max is having to do for...

    I believe you're not Matt Hancock - you seem far too switched on to be him.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Fair enough points and maybe it is a bit conspiratorial. Not sure I agree on the test and trace. For £12bn quid I'd expect a lot better from the start, esp when there was a system already available at much cheaper cost that would've probably been better, certainly initially. Testing has...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Still gets in my throat how its NHS Track and Trace when it clearly isn't but the vaccination process is never referred to as NHS vaccination programme. For me it's a clear indication of where this govt intends to go with the health service - trying to distance private enterprise from the fuck...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    On the whole I trust doctors but it's also dangerous to think of them as infallible. You would at least in your own head question how can you put it down as Covid when they've not even been tested for it. Extreme example is Shipman - got away with hundreds of just saying 'old age'. Old age is...

    Wilson Rose Fadz Hyam Dabo Kelly James McCallum O'Hare Biamou Walker Marosi, Pask, Sheaf, Hamer, Shipley, Allen, Jobello, Bapaga, Baka. Would be a bonus if Godden was fit enough for bench but not expecting it. Prob see Hamer come on around the hour for one of kelly or james and Pask replacing...

    By choosing one of a hundred different metrics they could. All they're doing is focusing on ONE thing - the vaccine rollout which is going very well. What about the procurement, the failure to put in necessary travel restrictions etc early enough, mixed/unclear messages and changing/ignoring...

    More travel to different areas does increase the likelihood of a mutation, and also mutations that are more resistant to the vaccines will inevitably become the dominant variants.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Vaccinations should be around travel insurance/health coverage. Certain areas have always had pre-required jabs to travel (i.e. malaria). So instead maybe it'd be based around 'get the jab or you'll not be covered for insurance'. No insurance and many operators won't book the journey. It's...

    Kasta Appreciation Society Thread Announcement (KASTA)

    One thing I think you could say of him is that he doesn't appear to be being disruptive to the squad. He's clearly not applying himself and making the most of his abilities but at the same time he's not seemingly causing trouble either.

    Are their results better or worse since he left?

    Ratings v Rovers

    Apart from one poster who's slaughtering Walker? The point is if he's not involved around getting chances he does very little else - that's accurate. He's not going to challenge for the ball or help keep hold of it to allow support to build an attack. He's a predator whose instinct is to score...

    Sheaf

    During his time there he played 15 matches out of 23, so missed a third of their fixtures. At the time Barnsley were 9th with 34pts from 23 games (1.47ppg). They'd won 10, lost 9 and drawn 4, scoring 27 and conceding 29. Since he left they're now 7th, having played 9 and got 17pts (1.88 ppg)...

    Sheaf

    It was more to do with Kelly's experience and organising, as well as getting in the ref's ear, that people felt we'd miss and it was those we wanted replaced more than just 'a CDM'. Those are mainly why James was brought in. Sheaf needs to improve but this year will have given him valuable...
