  1. Tin foil hat time: the police may have a ratio of police to crowd numbers in their rulebook. They might have been a few short hence a little adjustment of the figure (that is probably calculated weeks in advance)
  2. Have we actually spent 7m or have we agreed to pay 7m if certain criteria are met? (Games, goals, time at club, England caps at different levels etc)
  3. Would play leutwiler tbh - needs game time "just in case".
  4. Can i choose more than 1? ??
  5. Great result. Scary finish. 3 points away from home and 3 goals from open play - awesome.
  6. Question is when does he replace Graham and in the meantime can he learn from him. Samuel crocked and Nuttall being what he is then i think it became very urgent...
  7. Think he is being political tbh. A reasonable return to the championship all in all and going off in the media prior to the break would risk morale. Think he will be bollocking them when they return to training
  8. Depressing 2nd half but people having a go at Raya need to back off a little. Could easily have been 2-0 down before our goal. Other than that - 3rd goal should probably have been saved but not sure if it was deflected.
  9. Missed our chances after a lucky first. Bristol better team today but could have 3-0 to either team at HT
  10. Usually "up to" means about half up front with the rest contingent on games, time and (in our case) promotion. Would Imagine there is a 20% sell on though.
  11. Still there for me too. Also - Gladwin and Wharton look shooped too ?
  12. Young enough to accept being replaced by Graham after 60 minutes. Good enough to improve our first 11 if we accept that DG can't do 90 minutes given that Samuel and Nuttall are the options. Young enough to improve and adapt to different formations. Sure - needs to make a quick impact to avoid any comparisons to Davies but that is unavoidable given the fee
  13. Thought Dowie would have been a better choice than Hughes. Was relieved that Sam left as the football bored me stiff. Thought Murphy would be the new Cowans Thought Jason Lowe wasn't that bad (pre injury if that mitigates it at all)
  14. First i would prefer to keep him but what do if: Player wants to go and we are outside playoff spots plus Fee 10m cash + 6m addons (1.5/yr) + 10% sell on
  15. Special mention for Raya. Still young and kicking is mixed but 2 great saves again
  16. Well done Mr Mowbray and the players
  17. Fair enough - Conway more positive than i remember so i take it back.
  18. Do i not like this substitution Conway for Palmer
  19. Is it possible to have the audio without commentators?
  20. Be interesting to follow this one. Suspect he is Smallwoods replacement IF TM can get him interested whilst also covering CB if injuries pile up. Could be a total waste of a shirt but could be an inspired signing. Casual fans know his name from the premier league, with TM and a psychologist he could improve our first 11 or at worst our bench. Fingers crossed
  21. For me i would be happy to be a championship club come August 2019 provided there is a sensible plan for recruitment with the vision being playoff contenders in 2-3 years with a reconnected fanbase and a hungry team that are on sensible (for football) wages. Any sales should be planned in advance by raising the overall standard of the squad/u23 Personally prefer the above to paying desperate money to mercenaries and bring back the Murphy, Best, Etuhu and the wanker rightback whose name i have forgotten just now....
  22. Must disagree here. 4/5 starters - who is for the chop? My post refers only to staying up and the team (not squad). I agree entirely that options are thin and the squad needs more quality but first 11 should be good enough for survival.
  23. Trust Mowbray enough to say that IF the story is true then the reason maybe the conditionality of the money. 1 signing for 8 mill and/or on silly wages would undo a lot of hard work (and not just by Mowbray). The team is good enough to stay Up though options and backup are questionable. Next step is to build a solid championship squad and then add the "luxury" buys to push us into top 6 without being liquidated...
  24. Seriously? Coyle and sensible in the same sentence ?
