All depends on injuries. Next game someone could be out for months and he's back in the team as a regular. But he could end up like Davies if that doesn't happen. With McFadz's age I think to lose Hyam would be a loss long-term, even though MR seems to very highly rate Williams.

His move to three hasn't helped. Especially when you've got an opener who won't last more than an hour.

Proportionally the homeless are a bigger drain on those services. Poor hygiene and living conditions will result in far more health problems and quite often there are issues like substance abuse that takes up more NHS and police time, as well as social care etc although that is largely provided...

I'm not saying he wasn't harshly treated - he most definitely was and didn't deserve to be sacked for a 'big name'. We were playing some very exciting football and I found it a very enjoyable time to watch us. When it worked it worked very well but when it didn't we really struggled but the fact...

Fuck, a duck.

Why did you only stay 20 minutes? I know Birmingham's not that great but was it really that bad!

And there he goes....

No it wouldn't. The law is that 'part of each foot' must be on or behind the line. So a long as even the tiniest part of the heels are on the line it's a legal throw. Like bowling in cricket.

It's really difficult to compare over the years. Like you I have JH as the best because he changed our fortunes so much and led us up many divisions is quite a quick time and completely changed the way the club interacted with the community. He was well supported in that quest though. With...

As I said in the other thread, no they didn't. Friargate has always had space earmarked for at least one hotel since its inception a decade ago. The land and the potential usage has been there all that time. It's been showcased at various exhibitions numerous times during that period so the...

He's made a very good start but it's way too early to be making comparisons. With his really big pace you've really got to make sure we don't over-use him and bring on injuries. Anderson looked a bit wayward early on in his career and Broad can be incredibly frustrating with his over-use of the...

We'll find out this morning if yesterday's comeback was good or not when we see us batting. Headingley can be very difficult to bat on and the Aus attack is good. I can't see Roy lasting long either. I'd still have Denly opening if for no reason that he might hang around a bit longer.

We seem to like signing attacking midfielders possibly coming out of contract with hare in the name..

Let's not have another see-saw argument in this thread please

Nope.He was bought in as back-up because Oggy was very close to retirement and Kirkland was at the opposite end of the scale but Oggy eventually ended up as main back-up keeper as he clearly hadn't impressed much - think Ogogo and Brown last year brought in on long term decent contracts and...

It is on topic - Grendel's wrong but won't let it slide.

Hyldegaard was considered our back-up keeper that year, ahead of Oggy (at the start of the season at least). Kirkland was only just out of the academy and although highly rated was not considered close to first team ready at that point. So what if we had that many players 20 years ago - we...

It was more of a rivalry around the 1990's becuase it was often just us and Villa in the top flight. Birmingham, Wolves and West Brom were in the 'wilderness' like we are now at the time so we were the closest team. Had any of those come up during that time our rivalry would have sat on the back...

Ah the usual Grendel deflection. You said we had a small squad - I showed we didn't. You said 20 years ago players like those in the squad wouldn't have a squad number - I proved they did. I mentioned Quinn, Kirkland and Strachan's etc as nowhere near the first team because they were as far...

Actually it's from my own spreadsheet and most weren't awarded shirts for the final game. A few weren't given them at the start of the season (Mehmet had to be an emergency sub on game ). Some of them never even made the bench. While I'm not familiar with how every one of them liked to play or...
