Probably said it on this thread at some point, but I’ve never been a fan of sours. However, one took my eye and thought I’d give it a go and was pleasantly surprised. Probably as it didn’t really taste like a sour; 71 Brewing - Lemon Verbena Slushy Sour. Couldn’t have more than one as it got a...

Strong side for a cup game. Excited to see Taveres and Walker, with Lamer behind, could be an interesting combo. Waghorn definitely down the pecking order then!

I’m a big fan of the Cranborne Poacher! Wow! Can’t work out if that sounds nice or just a bit strange! Definitely going to give it a go to recreate though!

Cannot believe it’s been nearly a year since we posted on this thread! The selection at supermarkets has improved massively recently. Had a Mangolicious by Laine Brew Co this evening in the garden, in the sun - great beer for this weather. Purchased from Lidl as part of their beer festival -...

Yaaayy, SISU v Wasps v the Club again. Sure this thread will be delightful.

It’s an absolutely shite situation, and the Burton one is random too - why Burton?! But any blame being apportioned to SISU/the club/Boddy is nothing but agenda pushing. Plenty to have a dig about, but control of a pitch in a stadium we don’t own is not one. Talk of buying a ticket to check...

The game needs to be off. The pitch is absolutely terrible and we’re already one of or best players down, why risk it. Even aside from the risk, we play good football, and that pitch is not affable to that. So why disadvantage ourselves at home. Especially in a game we should be clearly...

Dabo for Eccles is a no brainer, as long as it isn’t going to risk Dabo getting a LT injury if he’s not fully ready. I’d like Allen out of the team, but doesn’t sound like Palmer is ready. Plus, I think I was watching a different game at the weekend as he looked off the pace to me (this isn’t...

I’ve no idea who Frank is and I can’t be arsed to read a thread from seven (!!) years ago.

Genuinely no personal offence to you as a poster, and everyone is entitled to their view. But that post is absolutely mental.

Also, there’s a part of me which is reluctant to have some billionaire owner. Not sure I want to be a Chelsea or a Man City really. With thousands of new fans who have no idea who we are. Pisses me off now when someone new sits near me at the CBS and starts slagging players off after a few...

Ideal world SISU do go and we get a Brentford/Middlesbrough type owner, but unfortunately unless we have a secret millionaire fan, or one of us wins the lottery it isn’t happening. There’s plenty to be frustrated with SISU about, but it’s also fair to say a lot less in recent years. They’ve...

I like him as he has pace which scares defenders, and it’s especially important for us, as nobody else offensively does. Also looked like we tried to use his running more today which was great, as it was frustrating last year we seemed to miss the point and either go to his feet or not at all...

Moore - 5 - terrible goalkeeping for the goal. A few standard saves, and an excellent take from a low cross. Still can’t up the score though - horrible mistake for the goal. Eccles - 4 - really unfortunate as he’s a good footballer, but today he certainly wasn’t. Even being out of position...

Yep, still not convinced. I get it’s one game, but he’s had a full pre-season, plus half last year to understand how we play. He has a good pedigree and at LWB, but based on what we’ve seen so far, it’s LWB in a very different system. He lacks pace and most importantly (I’ve said it since he...

Same issues as last season - if our wing backs arent on form or just not enough, it impacts us massively. I called it pre game and I’m sure others did too. Eccles is a good footballer but he isn’t going to get us up the pitch, same with Allen. No idea how Bidwell has a career at wing back. If...

Horrific defending and even worse goalkeeping.

He’s always been a twat.

Surprised how nervous I am - I’m only in a pub with about 10 other Cov fans.

Bit concerned about a lack of dynamism and forward running in the wing backs, especially as it’s such a pivotal position on the he way we play. Having said that Eccles is a very good footballer and while I’m not yet convinced by Bidwell, I’m hoping after a full pre season he comes good...
