For me he's been playing out of position his entire career. Not agile or quick enough off the mark to be a full back, but I still like him and he’d make a neat holding midfield player IMO.

And realistically, neither Phillips nor Ricketts is a wing back. For me, there were too many square pegs in round holes. Enjoyable game though.

That’s exactly what I was thinking NW, except I’m not sure it’s really just the “summer”. Doesn’t the season start in February or something? When so much energy is spent on here arguing about aspects of Wasps which shouldn’t really matter to us, I’m amazed that this isn’t being questioned...

Genuine question :) Is that 4 different players, or were you just referring to Adam Armstrong?

Yes. For Joy, Coventry City Football Club is like a tatty old Premium Bond tucked away in the back of her kitchen drawer. She gave someone £40 million for it on a drunken night out, and now the only thing she can do is hope that its number comes up, even though the odds are vanishingly slim.

It's really hard, but in these last few months I've started to take that on board. Hanging on to the best youngsters is going to be almost impossible. Let's not forget that we all get excited when we see a chance to grab a talented player from even further down the pyramid. That's how it...

Tony's response (at #131) to what Grendel said makes perfect sense, including his use of negatives. And you pull him up on his grammar with this convoluted gobbledygook?

Thus disproving your point.

Finally, an explanation that's consistent with all the facts!

Are you syaing that McCartney's CT article mentioned SISU? The link above doesn't include the "Misery Figurehead" at all now.

Maybe a march to the Mirror’s HQ is called for? Questions in Parliament? Pompey and Wimbledon fans have had as much despair as us, but it’s quite obvious they’ve also had loads more to cheer than we have. We’ve worked bloody hard for this title for at least a quarter of a century, and we...

You're right - that's what it now says! Yet 10 minutes ago I can assure you that it said "Misery figurehead : Stadium Manager ACL" (Weeman saw it too). Yippee - another 3 days of arguments about why the article was changed, why it blames SISU so explicitly, why it calls them "former owners"...

We were robbed of this Misery title. In that period, Pompey have had an FA Cup win and a promotion, and Wimbledon (in reincarnated form) have had a huge amount of fun. Like the Yorkshiremen in Monty Python, I will continue to insist that we've had it worse than anyone else.

Yes, I spotted that too, but PLEASE everyone let's not divert this thread :)

I was trying to work out what you meant by reverse chronological order. And then I looked at the figures and realised it makes fcuk all difference which way round you put them :) Not sure why you left off the next 5 in the sequence, which are 11th, 15th, 19th, 16th and 12th? To be honest our...

I see one of the criteria is "near misses". Well we won't score any points for that because there haven't been any near misses have there? In pursuit of this award, we've kept ourselves out of the top ten for 25 of the last 26 seasons, and made sure we almost never win a cup match. And now we...

In the past 10 weeks we have lost in the Third Division to Colchester, Peterborough, Shrewsbury, Rochdale, Barnsley, Fleetwood, Scunthorpe, Southend and Burton. Like everyone else, I’ve endured some hard times following this club, but surely this is the most pathetic run of the lot. Despite...

I agree Lee, outside the top ten 25 times out of 26 is disgraceful. How the hell do we tolerate it? Since we are into self-flagellation … In the 48 seasons since promotion to the top flight in 1967:- Average No. of places from the BOTTOM of the league = 6.8 In the 23 seasons covered by...

I'm sure there is - I know the reality is that money talks. I was only trying to cheer myself up :)
