I expected last night to be a goal fest - I thought their ability on the ball would run rings round our defence (even if we'd played first choice) but if we put them under pressure we would force errors from them giving us chances, especially late on with mental tiredness. Instead as the game...

I don't think Bayliss is a Lampard type player. For me Lampard was the type of attacking midfielder making the late run into the box rather than pinging the ball about as Bayliss wants to, but with a nimbleness of feet to beat a man from time to time. I think he's more of a cross between Gary...

I wasn't there last night and was only listening on radio (which isn't always the most useful way to get a handle on proceedings) but they did seem to mention a lot that Arsenal were getting a lot of free kicks for practically nothing but you're suggesting that in fact Arsenal were doing a lot...

Yeah, if there's one place I think you can afford to lack a bit of height it's the wide forward positions. Used to be a case full backs could be small as well but now forwards run into their channels rather than staying central so they've needed to become bigger and stronger on the whole as a...

Barca? Whole team of shortarses but pretty much dominated football for a number of years. The thing is they use that to their advantage by playing to their strengths. Low centre of gravity, quick feet - keep the ball on the deck and use quick passing. So far we seem to be lumping it forward but...

I would like to apologise for biting in the Rasputin thread and turning it into a shitfest. That will be all. Carry on as you were.

Right, I'm not going into this too much so I'll leave it with this as my last contribution on the subject. "So when ccfc were offered half share at £6 million taking on the debt which you believe is part of the shareholder value on a 45 year lease perhaps you’d like to explain how that is...

I did. Sorry. But they brought up something that I really don't remember ever happening and I was following the saga pretty closely at the time so either I missed something so major I need to know more or it's something that's unsubstantiated.

It isn't reasonable. It also doesn't make any sense. How can you be offered a 50% shareholding and not get voting rights? Voting rights come with the shares so if what you say is true they weren't actually offered a half share at all (unless you literally mean 'half a share'). I really don't...

Yeah. It's a bit like the issue of us playing between the defence and then hoofing to nobody. Is that also due to lack of/poor movement as there's no-one free to make a pass to? As for the thread. Are we missing something from throw-ins. Yes - we're missing players in Sky Blue shirts.

Every time I see this thread title I just see that shaving advert in my head where the guy gets a punch in the bollocks. Seems quite apt.

I guessed they were, and in respect of cash outlay is correct and why I said they were taking artistic licence rather than lying. Doesn't really tell the whole story though.

Again, very selective. When agreeing the purchase price for ACL it was with the knowledge that the debt would have to be taken on as part of the company. It's standard legal and financial practice to do so. Also the value of any debts IS included as shareholder value as it's a significant part...

To be fair I still get a bit lost in the revamped New Street now and I commuted to Brum for 5 years! If she expected it to look exactly like Euston then yeah that's a bit silly (though post-war theatres were all laid out the same to make it easier for performers on tour to know where everything...
