    Cheating bastard. I had my doubts, but he just used to say he was late home because of work. "Sorting out the deck", my arse. I'll never trust a man again.

    And my genuine apologies for being less than helpful. I manage my stress levels by posting shite on here, Lego takes actual effort. 🙂

    Good point. I'd use Duplo, bit quicker.

    Wright

    What might help his game is if he stops playing in roller skates... :) I hate it when everyone gets down on a player (oo-err missus), because I think then all you notice is the negative stuff and you miss the positive stuff. In fairness wasn't it his challenge in the middle of the goal that led...

    I'm over it now. My target for the season was too be in touch of the playoffs on the last day of the season, and we did that and then some. This manufactured hatred between the clubs isn't something I buy into personally, but I guess it's each to their own. The shit housing around the...

    I'm done with Wright. Fucking useless.

    I know I'm whinging a lot, but why won't we break when we get the chance. So bloody obsessed with coming back inside. We've got some pace on there, we just never use it.

    Fair point, but he could teach everyone else in the squad an awful lot about attitude and commitment.

    This. 100% this. I don't know if it's instinct, or if it's coached, but to work so hard to get down the flanks and then come back inside every time is just immensely frustrating. At least mix it up a bit and make the full back work for a living.

    In fairness, Wright is doing the work of two men. Laurel and Hardy. Joking aside, it isn't working for him, and hasn't for a while. He just can't seem to get into games, it looks like he's got no energy for the channels, and no fight for the battles. Such a good player when he's on it, so...

    What is the fucking point of standing offside at free kicks? It's bizarre.

    We've had four days to get a plan B. FL clearly doesn't have one.

    Are you heading up there mate, to the land of the White Walkers? If so, hope you and everyone else going has a good one. Remember to wave for the telly. 😁

    It's the BBC mate, so it'll be RP. I think they picked it up off the late Queen, it was one of her favourite phrases.

    In truth mate, I'm not quite as confident as you, either in our ability to break them down if we play the same way, or that we won't concede again on the counter. But I sincerely hope you're right and I'm wrong, that would make all of us very happy. 🙂

    Nothing I'd argue with here, except that to me "anti-football" is this idea that possession is all that matters. There's literally nothing more anti-football to me, than having possession of the ball in the opposition third, and it somehow ending up with it being passed back to your centre half...

    Doing the same thing and expecting a different result is the definition of insanity, isn't it? Personally, I'd be amazed if Sunderland don't set up in exactly the same way. Low block, quick counter attack, plenty of time wasting and trying to break the game up. Their fans won't 'demand'...

    I think it was because of the level of frustration at Wright, and in general mate. A fit EMC offers a lot more than Wright in that position, imho. Whether Wright offers more than Simms down the middle is one I'm genuinely not sure about, neither is looking great at the moment.

    We've had more possession, the better side is usually the one that scores the most goals, I'd say. That doesn't look like us at the moment...

    I don't get this lack of urgency. Sheaf literally strolls off when subbed. Then we get a free kick a few moments later and take about a minute to take it... And then, fuck me. an absolute gift. Just so fucking casual.
