Imho he'll be here next season. Yes, he's come on in the last few weeks, but he was no world beater for the first 6 months of the season. Just happened to find a rich vein of form at the right time. Why are we so eager to mentally sell every player with an ounce of promise? Regardless of your...

Lionel Turnbull doesn't have quite the same ring to it.

If (no, really, I do mean if - not gonna jinx it) we win, then Robins will have almost doubled our league wins for the season in a handful of games.

Don't disagree. But iirc he has a 37% win percentage overall, which isn't a figure that stands out until you look at how average or poor the clubs he's managed have, traditionally, been.

Agreed. He seemed, on paper, to be the right choice. Hindsight is a wonderful thing.

If you look at his managerial stats on wikipedia, he looks, first spell with us apart, pretty damn average. But look behind the stats at the clubs he's managed, and none have been expected to compete at the top of their respective leagues. Win percentages don't tell the whole story. He's done...

I thought Lameiras was excellent. His positional sense was generally top notch, he harried with the best of them, when he had no energy left and was running like a rag doll he somehow found an extra ounce of adrenaline to get there. He never gave up. I'd take that performance from him every day...

Yay!

Blow the fucking whistle ref!

How the feck did that not go in???

2 mins to go. Nervy.

5 mins added time. Gulp.

George Thomas MOTM. Can't disagree, although there are a few that could have won it.

Gotta feel for RCC. 'Keeper all the way through the cup until today iirc.

Why does it need to be 20k+? How many times have we broken that barrier this season? Or last? Other than the odd game here and there the 12k is close to the right figure. We're about to be a Division 4 club. 15k is the figure I think ideal for now, so there is scope for a few bigger crowds, but...

We could still finish 14th, assuming that the teams that play each other end up having their games abandoned and are awarded zero points.

He should have wiped better, then.

As much as Pep Guardiola is overhyped, the one thing you have to say is that he wants his teams to attack mercilessly. Perhaps that's the model we should work towards. Defenders in L1 and L2 are generally poor, so the 'we'll score one more than you' rule may be successful (not with our current...

I think that next season will be hellish. Bottom half for sure. We have to build a brand new squad (yet again), and I doubt we'll bring in 11 new first team players. Even if we do, they'll take time to gel (copyright A.Thorn) and by the time they do we'll be fighting to stay afloat. Re: the...

We want answers to pertinent questions, but those questions are rarely asked, and when they are TF isn't given the chance to answer. Instead of assuming he talks shit and shouting him down, people should actually listen to the answers and offer counter-arguments and facts that back them up. Just...
