I have a childish urge to spoil this thread, by dropping in a ‘Gus Poyet’, and seeing how many will quote it saying: ‘AcTiVe PlAyErS!!!!!!&£&&’

This thread has turned out rather well. 🤣

That was a fairly decent game of football, if my memory serves correctly: 2-2 (can’t remember the scorers except the Busst penalty), and Oggy came on as an outfield sub. Ferdinand and Gascoigne were different class, even in a testimonial game. Anyone mentioned Jose Perdomo?

Is he just randomly in a Cov shirt? As I can’t find anything on him being in our youth set up. 🤔

Not as old as I feel, as that would be impossible. 👍🏻

Clive’s sporadic bouts of sounding ultra urgent (in what transpires as innocuous occurrences) immediately set off my fight or flight, admittedly: ‘HERE COMES BIDWELL, with a badly timed pass, gives it away, BUT HAMER WINS IT BACK, ugh but he’s dispossessed…AAAND…oh, it’s a throw in…’ It’s...

Who’s that?

That’s the spirit. 👍🏻

PA at HR was far from crystal clear, either. The guy who did all of the announcements, etc, often sounded like he was talking through a cigar in his mouth, as well.

Defensively, superior. Offensively, inferior. Definitely more suited to being a traditional left back, really. Which, is a shame really, as he was a solid, professional, consistent performer last season, and I feel that DaSilva is already becoming an MR favourite. I’m not entirely sold on the...

Beat you to it. 👍🏻 Was quite surprised that he had passed away a few years ago, aged 50.

Looking back at Wright’s ‘highlight reel’, I’m getting the impression he was deployed more as a LFW or RFW, in certain matches, with instructions to run the channels, chase onto a long pass over the top (which, sadly, none of our midfielders can do) and get in the box when the ball is wide on...

Jamie Paterson counts as several, considering how many times we’ve been tenuously linked with him. Trifon Ivanov.

I tend to steer widely away from anything ‘political’, however, the historical significance of this latest outbreak is, by all accounts, a blood feud of colossal proportions. I was reading up on it earlier, and most of it has evaporated already. Looks like Israel isn’t messing around though...

Need to get forward and press, this is dire.

Anyone know what the consensus on their forum is? No idea what the Birmingham forum is called, myself.

Makes you realise that, in fact, we do have a fair slice of fortune at times. A few minutes later, we almost forced another own goal from them.

MR wouldn’t go for it. He likes his 3 big lumps at CB, and wingbacks. I prefer a 4-4-2 myself, there’s still plenty of dynamic options for it.

Richard Rufus.

Also, it was a split second decision: hoof it or try and make some space to (possibly) counter. The latter, I imagine, is probably what he’s been instructed to do. The rest was just awful, Norwich basically walked it in. 🫣 Overall, I think we should have won it. If only Tatsu could have...
