So we should have done in fairness given the budget he was given.

As others have stated he should have gone during the 00/01 season and we may have had a chance of staying up. We lost 1-3 at home to Everton and you could tell then it was a lost cause, the players had given up. We were absolutely crying out for a change.

It wasn't a freekick but still a cracking finish. Keane's goal was pure genius. Makes me so depressed looking at the shambles of a side we support now.

Absolutely humiliating the Aussies away in the Ashes 10/11 City beating Villa in 99/00 - Keane running them ragged after Gregory had refused to pay the extra £500K for him. Weymouth hammering Dorchester 8-0 in 03/04 Beating Argentina in 2002 WC

You don't think?! None of them would have got close to our reserve side. Don't forget we are now towards the bottom of Division 3. I was flicking through a programme a couple of weeks back (97/98 season). Our reserve side that week included Hedman, Borrows, Moldovan, Williams and Soltvedt.

£50 on a friendly? You must be mad. The England players will spend the game not trying to pick up injuries before they head back to their PL clubs.

I miss no longer getting that buzz of excitement when the start of a new season arrives. That tiny glimpse of hope that this year might be the year that we excel and challenge for honours. Under these owners I am resigned to the fact that each year we will slowly (maybe not even slowly...

Saved me typing out this exact same response. Cheers mate.

You didn't just file that statement in the 'SISU Bullshit' folder alongside "We batter people in court" and "Plan A is a new stadium"?

The only glimmer of hope is that they have been playing their second string (as much as they are permitted to) and hopefully will continue to do so. The game should mean more to us than them as clearly promotion is their overwhelming priority whereas the JPT is the only thing this season has...

Yeah, because they would have brought loads on a cold January Saturday afternoon. Lol etc

Yeah, cos that really would have happened. Jesus christ.

It's not new.

Course we would. People said the same before the last one. And before Gillingham. The people of Cov love coming out for a one-off game.

I couldn't give a toss that it's only the JPT I would f****** love a day on the beers at Wembley.

Shit, really? I wish you'd mentioned this sooner.

It wouldn't really be a semi though, would it?

Well Sheff W don't play in this Micky mouse cup so he must be able to plaY. There would be no reason on Sheff Weds part not to let him.

Surely if these people were/are so desperate for PL rugby they'd nip down the road to Leicester? I hope with all my heart the whole thing falls flat on its face and they piss off back to London/Wycombe/wherever the hell it is that they come from.

Like it, that should take off!
