Throw in by Gunnar, flicked on by Turner, banged in by Whittingham, reported to SSN by Dowie, analysed in the studio by Boothroyd.

Hopefully murphy will come out of his sticks and handle the ball as well as he did yesterday, with these long throws.

I'm looking forward to that first tackle by Brown on Gunner in the first two minutes

Knowing Gunnar more likely: throw in by Gunnar, headed away by Hussey. Christie has a better throw IMO.

Gunnar hated brown against pompey in the cup! Brown had him rattled!

I hope most of the stadium doesnt spend most of the game clapping and cheering ex-players. Lets save that for the players we have now.

Christie created more mayhem and chances from throws in his first 6 games than Aron did in about a year! Almost every single one is at worst scrambled clear, which can go any where. It happened a few times yesterday. One of the bonuses in Cyrus's armoury.

With christie's throws they tend to reach plattini at front post, flicked on then a chance is created.
With Gunnars throws they are so predictable, pen spot and most keepers find it easy to come out and catch, but we do have murphy in the sticks who struggles with that sort of attack.

His throws i've seen on the box this year have improved and they have scored one or two from them ,they were always too flat for us ,he seems to get more loft on them now.

Generally for us they didn't even reach the near post. They'd kinda drift towards it but fall a few yards short, making a header or hoof clear meat and drink every time. It was painful to watch! We didn't even bother with them under Thorn, remember?

Alright chaps, his throws are quite decent for us sometimes he gets them all wrong and it's easy for the keeper/a goal kick. However we have scored from 2 this season. Useful to have to put a bit of pressure on but not one of a main outlets of attack (like Stoke!)

I shall be there with another 800-1000, hopefully a few more after yesterday's game. One of the best trips the Ricoh as we have a decent record there of late (touchwood!)

Yeah very similar stadiums, although our capacity is a few thousand less.

You want to stay well clear of Scam Hammam, his company Langstone is still owed millions by Cardiff (as Hammam himself took out the loan against our club) but we have a few years to pay that back. It's miraculous that we still have a club to support after Hammam and Ridsdale and I'm grateful to this day that we are still alive, that's why I can feel your pain with SISU.:facepalm:

Our CEO mutually agreed to leave, don't think there was anything in it really.

Just that ours left three or four days later and our ex chair Ranson has been investigated for lending your team money last season.
