    After a triple leg break I can't see him being too keen to go into and 50/50 challenges. Could have affected him psychologically.

    In the words of Depeche Mode, I have .... My own personal cheeses. Something to eat on chairs, something with pears. Reach out and touch faith.

    It's the market we are in unfortunately. Sounds like a gamble. If it comes off however and he's a gem then no-one will be complaining.

    1st 10 games - How many points?

    Nearly every season I think we are going to make the play-offs. Last season was the very first where I predicted a relegation struggle. Maybe if I say we will finish bottom we'll finish top!

    That would still make him one of our fittest players.

    Just checked back and just pulled out our Championship seasons. Games lost: 24 19 18 18 21 22 15 20 15 20 20 20 The season we finished 8th we lost 15. And before anyone says it was a higher league, we surely had better players for the Championship. It's all...

    1st 10 games - How many points?

    You had me half believing there for a minute or two ..... until you said the top 6 clubs only lost 6 games maximum. There is no way on this earth I can believe that we will only lose 6 games. No way. Just not in our blood. Not in our history. Not in our make-up. I wonder just how many years...

    Some very fair and reasoned comments there.

    It's a trilogy. The final conflict will be next year. First part of the trilogy was Thorn taking us down last season, with us believing in him but then finding out he was the devil himself. Part two will be relegation this season where the devil is still in control and has duped everyone...

    1st 10 games - How many points?

    Now you are putting words in my mouth. We could finish top 6 under Thorn and I could still say Thorn is not a good manager, yes that is true. We could finish top 6 under another manager though and I could also say they were not a good manager too. We could finish top 6 under any manager and I...

    1st 10 games - How many points?

    And I have said I will give him a fresh start. But I can only make my prediction thus far for this season based on the fact that the newbies are free, unknown quantities and that we still have many of the usual suspects who took us down last. And yet seemingly you want me to say now that AT is...

    They will all probably be first team players by the end of the season.

    1st 10 games - How many points?

    Don't wish to go back to last season's mistakes yet again. You know that I felt some of the mistakes were not just mistakes but very, very embarrassing school boy errors. True shockers. What I am saying is that we could well finish top 6 under AT and I might still feel he's not a good manager...

    1st 10 games - How many points?

    Talking end of the season not first 10 games here. Just can't see us doing it under Thorn. Guess it all depends on how the season pans out. If we finish top 6 but a number of points are lost due to perceived mistakes by the manager I might then be saying that a good manager would have us top...

    1st 10 games - How many points?

    Not wishing to jump on the Thorn thing all over again, but I only think top 6 would be possible with a really good manager at the helm.

    1st 10 games - How many points?

    When you take the Sky Blue glasses off, we lost our best players, still have many of the players who failed miserably for us last year and have brought in replacements who we have no idea at all whether they will make the squad stronger or not.

    Flashforward frustrated the hell out of me. Such a brilliant premise, but everyone was so stupid and it was oh so obvious that instead of changing their futures so the predicted future didn't happen, most of them who saw these negative outcomes did all the things leading up to the fateful day...
