    All loans have gone back

    Bit of a worry for me. To lose 5 players just like that could prove disruptive. Slade I think has enough on his plate trying to bring signings in without having to replace loans. Was really hoping Sterry would have been extended for the season and Page for another month until Stokes was back.

    Idiots with the whistles

    There's hardly anyone who said there was NO whistle. Quite a few people saying they didn't hear it though. Be nice if Reilly came out and actually said it did affect him. If he did that it might actually get through to the numbskulls not to do it again.

    Sherlock

    Well yeah, but was thinking more in terms of Sherlock Holmes in general. Think Sherlock calls for a bit more suspension of disbelief than other incarnations of the character. I also meant that perhaps this was a bit more than some other episodes. I did find the whole Mary/spy thing a bit too...

    Torch's Counselling Thread

    Well said! And the very best of luck. Hopefully the City can go on a winning run to raise your spirits and maybe a Wembley trip might have you fighting fit again real soon.

    Idiots with the whistles

    Yes, whistle before Reilly slips. Unfortunately though, I am still not so sure. You can't tell (well I can't anyway) whether Reilly stops for the whistle or because he thinks someone else is going to go for the ball. Wish it was 100%, but for me it is still grassy knoll sort of territory.

    Idiots with the whistles

    Will watch it again. As I said previously, I had just left the ground, so missed it and could make no judgement on it at the time.

    Idiots with the whistles

    Still not sure. Maybe it is due to the whistle, but Reilly also seems to lose his footing. Was hoping it would have been definitive, but for me it isn't. Watched it 3 times now. Would have helped if Reilly had just stopped, but he also appears to lose his footing too.

    Sherlock

    Watched it last night and thought it was really good. A bit of suspension of disbelief needed, but Sherlock is always a little bit fantasy based. I enjoyed it.

    The official NFL Thread

    I think the Cowboys will falter in the playoffs.

    Idiots with the whistles

    I was being sarcastic. Of course whistles shouldn't be used by fans. The Sheff Utd game was clearly different because it was hundreds and hundreds of whistles in unison, NOT designed to disrupt the game. Yesterday this was individuals clearly trying TO disrupt the game. The club need to issue...

    Idiots with the whistles

    The bottom line is, the players shouldn't have stopped and should have played to the whistle. Numpties!!

    More players coming in...ideas?

    What position? Bench is just fine. Too lightweight, too inconsistent, knocked off the ball far too easily, lack of pace, one or two bits of magic mixed in with the other 80 mins of meh. No idea why he was brought on yesterday. Puzzled when it happened and it looked entirely the wrong decision.

    Idiots with the whistles

    This is all quite laughable. Some people didn't hear a whistle blown in a noisy stadium with over 10,000 there. Do we all always hear the refs whistle? Surely there are lots of times some of us don't hear it for many reasons (shouting or cheering around you, wrong end of the pitch, talking to...

    It was twice he kicked it straight out of play. Once in the first half and once in the second.

    I got my ticket today. Got a seat right by Clive Eakin so I can prod him everytime he says Bournemouth or Blackpool.

    I saw Slade was getting very annoyed with Burge today and his distribution. Sent from my Hudl 2 using Tapatalk

    Idiots with the whistles

    I am guessing it will be for that reason. Clearly an idiotic thing to do. When there are 300 whistles all blowing in unison it is quite a distinctive sound and couldn't possibly be confused with the refs whistle. Just blowing one or two intermittently however most definitely can disrupt the...
