A crushing disappointment filled with socks and deodorant and gift vouchers for W.H.Smith?

What's the one for Chico time? Edit: 1 second too late

He won't go to Barnsley. It's grim oop north* *It's not, some parts are lovely.

Hold on, what page are we on now?

I getcha, but spring-heeled Sean Flynn was tiny and he was a terrier against the bigger guys. Like I say to the missus, size isn't everything.

Can we forget all of this sensible football talk and get back to concentrating on the things that don't matter please.

Not to worry. Thanks for replying :emoji_thumbsup:

Hi Nick. Could I have my old likes back, or is it too late? A conversation at work made me interested in my post to like ratio!

It feels wrong to like your post for something this tragic. Footballer or not, it's such a waste of a young life, and all because he wasn't wearing a seatbelt.

42 goals in 43 games. Classic Champ Man. I always started off at Orient in, I think, 93/94. Trevor Putney could play across the whole of the midfield and even in his mid-30s he was awesome. I always signed a 16 year-old Chris Jackson from Barnsley for 6k, and he would be my top scorer every...

I DISLIKE THIS COMMENT.

I love Jasper Carrott. Some of his jokes are of the time, but some are as relevant today as they were then. And The Detectives was one of the most under-rated sitcoms of its day. Edit: to keep it on topic, blah blah Conor Chaplin.

Tony Sheridan was a Champ Man legend for me. My favourite player on the game for a year or two.

Whilst I agree that this should have been seen as a season of consolidation, the noise from the club was about pushing for a second successive promotion. Consolidation wasn't the aim, so it's hard to know if we should be happy mid-table obscurity or not, because the danger is that, if we end up...

At this level, those sort of players rarely have an end product, so while they can, on occasion, be enjoyable to watch they don't necessarily help a team win. A consistent 7 out of 10 player is probably more valuable and effective in this league that a flair player who can't produce the goods on...

Regardless of whether you like him or not (I don't), there's something fundamentally wrong with football when a manager who got to the play-offs last season is deemed worthy of only 5 games the next.

I have to say, I thought JCH spoke very well. He sounded like he'd got his head screwed on, and was very appreciative of the people he has around him at the club. That interview completely changed the way I view him.

The frustrating thing is, the club and players were starting to bridge the gap to the fans. For the first time in what feels like forever, we were all on the same side. All of that good work is being undone by the churning of players, and the uninspiring replacements (and generally inept...

Yep. There's no easy answer if you try to cram all of the so-called best players into a formation. It should be simple: pick the best team, not the best players.

It's the fella from Norwich isn't it? Probably a boardroom recruitment decision rather than one from Robins.
