I’m still happy to acknowledge a great goal/ save/ pass. And also applaud brilliant. players, or those that have given good service to us. Whilst I didn’t clap Hamer when he came over the corner (think the right time to do it is after substitution or after the game), I’m certainly not getting...

Didn’t applaud for the corner, but also didn’t boo COH (what grown adult boos anyway??) I did, however, clap them both off - which, for COH, definitely put me in the minority. This was the hipster decision.

Good to see the scoreboard is fixed

Based on the warm-up shooting practice, I’m glad Torp is starting and BTA isn’t.

Norman starts

Looks like Doug has been on Wikipedia

Apologies if already discussed, but have been looking at the Sky Sports website regarding when the next batch of live games will be announced. Looks like we have no live games after 21st December until the end of February?? So, does this mean no fixture changes?

As @Deity says it was Ray Clarke. I’m sure the Rick Gekoski book references we passed on Zidane or Trezeguet too. Will need to dig it out of the loft to check!

I mean, he wasn’t wrong was he? Simon Haworth’s goal-laden run for the Real Madrid Galaticos during 2000-2003 vindicates Strach’s decision fully.

How many times have we appointed a manager already in a job? I can think of Pressley?

There was a good question on the badly-timed “voice notes” section that went unanswered- “None of the players have reacted to MR’s departure, have they been told to do that?”

The first 10 mins or so were gold dust. The stuff about interviewing for a Viveash replacement, but “they all wanted to be a number one” was contradictory rubbish. And should have been challenged.

They don’t now - live near there and they’d have him back in a heartbeat

It isn’t though really, is it?

“Woman” - really?

We can disagree whether it was right or wrong to get rid of Robins. We can disagree about whether Lampard has overachieved/ underachieved/ did alright in his previous jobs. We can disagree regarding whether Rome or Coventry is more beautiful. We can argue that bookies know everything or...

That 4-5 was one for the ages

I was next to a miserable meathead at Wembley, wouldn’t engage in any conversation or say thanks when I let him through etc. When that “goal” went in, he bear hugged me and planted a kiss on my cheek.

I may have reading too much of this thread, but maybe Lampard wouldn’t be the worst option?? His best days maybe behind him, but he’s no worse an option than Matty James.
