    Things looking a little rosier?

    I wish I didn't find all these right wing republican women kind of attractive Cos you're a slag? When CCFC get me down I always try and think of something worse like nuclear war, famine, poverty, life-threatening diseases or Vernon Kay.

    Doncaster set to loan two West Ham players plus more

    Where have we been unlucky? Series of poor managerial appointments, dodgy boards and shite performances on the field of play. Luck doesn't come into it.

    Things looking a little rosier?

    Well Sarah Palin is a bomb waiting to happen, so you weren't far off. That woman scares the life out of any rational thinking human being. Thing is, over there they love her and she would have almost certainly got in. Let's face it, George Bush got into power and the man is a fookin clown...

    Things looking a little rosier?

    Okay, so, no money, languishing in the bottom three, no loan signings, just the one outfield player in, dwindling crowds, unpopular owners, only one win in 10 matches ......... but we just have avoided World War III, so big cheers and hoorah's all round. Avoiding total annihilation in turn...

    Lottery Syndicate.

    Won't touch it I'm afraid. My wife paid into a syndicate and the person running it stole all the money. Sort of put me off. Not saying you aren't all good, true honest gents, mind. :D

    What can Thorn do differently, assuming he can't bring anyone in?

    I would be the (1) camp for sure. I would try and get out with my reputation untarnished if possible. Suits our board perfectly this scenario. Things continue to go badly then they can say they gave Thorn a go and that the fans all supported this but that he just wasn't up to it. That would...

    What can Thorn do differently, assuming he can't bring anyone in?

    And if they don't respond he can drop them from the team and replace them with .. errm ...... errr .... errrm ..... ...... who exactly?

    What can Thorn do differently, assuming he can't bring anyone in?

    Not strictly true. You're forgetting that he was told he would have the same budget as AB.

    What can Thorn do differently, assuming he can't bring anyone in?

    Well McSheffey is half the player he used to be for sure.

    On the field he was a nasty little shit for sure. Had no interest in the ball at all, only in getting the man.

    What can Thorn do differently, assuming he can't bring anyone in?

    Tinker with the system. That's about it. Suppose he could throw down the gauntlet and drop several players and then ask the Football League if we can play a game with 7 or 8 men per game.

    Agree, Jimmy. I am not convinced by Thorn either, but how on earth can we judge him based on what he has to work with? For all we know there might well have been a number of players lacking 'appetite' for the game on Saturday. Thorn is in no position to drop 3 or 4 or 5 players from his team is...

    Does anyone remember Trevor Hockey? The guy was simply a thug.

    Well if he does have the wrong personnel there's not a lot he can do about it is there.

    Also have to say that surely the squad's confidence has dropped with what is going on off the field. The players themselves must have thought and believed that we were going to sign players as promised and that we would be getting loan players in as promised. Must be going through their minds...

    Bottom line is we need a box to box player. Only Deegan fits the bill. It's all well and good playing Clingan and Bigi further up the pitch, but I don't believe that is their natural game. Big has a good shot on him? Well so does Clingan. Doesn't motivate him to play higher up the park though...

    What you got with a Gunnar was a player who would support the strikers and push forwards into the space between the midfield and the strikeforce. We haven't had that this season. Only Baker and McShuffty get into goal scoring positions (and now hopefully, Deegan). Bigi sits deep, Clingan sits...

    Thing is in football, it's a lot to do with confidence. When you are down, in the bottom three and have only won one game out of 10 that hits morale and that it turn affects the confidence. When you are at a low ebb and feeling sorry for yourselves it then makes it all the harder to play the...

    Affliction sky blue

    My uncle, in his late 80's would throw me over a wall. Had nothing to do with football though.

    Okay. Didn't wish to relay it as I thought everyone knew! George broke his leg and someone was sent to his home to relay the information to his wife. The official said to Mrs. Curtis "Sorry, but George is coming home with a broken leg." "Oh dear" came the reply from Mrs.C. "Whose is it?" :D...
