They need to pay their f&*king debts first before spending a penny on coming back. Parasites.

You can also add Arteta and Xabi Alonso to that list as well.

But for that list you can then have: Souness Guardiola Simeone Dalglish Zidane Ancelotti Rijkaard Conte Enrique Pochetinno All good players who became decent/great managers. I get what you're saying but it's easy to get fixated on the 'great players don't make great managers' mantra when it's...

Yeah I get that great players doesn't necessarily mean they become great players. I just can't see how someone can be devoid of tactical nous after playing at the highest level for so long (and successfully) under some of the best managers in the world.

On the whole 'Lampard isn't a good tactician' thought - I'm not sure that's fair to be honest. The guys played over 750 games at the highest level including over 100 international caps and has played for some of the best managers in the world. You don't have that much experience and come out...

Sounds a bit boring mate.

'Chorley FM - coming in your ears'. LOVED Phoenix Nights.

That was Covid. Every time I was a hotel for the teams arrival in the last 4 seasons, they've been on one coach.

The kit goes in the kit van with the kit man and normally one other person. The rest, all goes in one coach.

The players and staff do travel on the same coach.

Alright Decksy. Calm dow!

Not listening. In what way?

It's on medical grounds apparently.

That's his career over.

Oh and also... You say we've lost to poor teams this season. We have. But we've also taken 8 points from the top 10 teams this season whereas this time last season, we only had 2 points from the top 10 teams after 15 games. Doesn't matter how you paint it - we're still marginally better off...

See post #338. We don't know anything - which is why people can't say we won't make POs. What's our xG that people keep on banging on about?? 4th/5th in the table. It works both ways.

It could be less than 60 points to get to the POs. Like I said, this season it seems to be a poorer division so previous totals might not be needed. We're still only 8 points off the play offs with 31 games to go. 31 games to go. THIRTY. ONE. That's a huge amount of games. We've currently...

Robins had a history of turning it round and getting a great PPG ratio in the 2nd half of the season. Not often I agree with @shmmeee but he's bang on. We're literally just 8 points off the play offs with 2/3s of the season to go. This is arguably the weakest Championship for a few years with...

Totally agree. And not only that, DKs fired arguably our greatest ever manager for a poor run of form yet were 8pts off the play offs, still with 2/3rds of the season to go. Any new man coming in must have POs as a minimum target. Also, quite a few keep banging on about xG and on that other...

Well I think that's me told on xG. I'll look into it a bit more. But probably still think it's bollocks next time it comes up in conversation 🤣
