  1. Solid penalty and FK taker. Only one goal from open play from inside the box, the other 10 from outside the box. I think he might actually displace Trav quite quickly (and he’s captain material too).
  2. That got sung for Billy Sharp in the US. It’s as big a missed chanting opportunity as ‘Take us home, Jordan Rhodes’ was for us.
  3. He stopped us going 2-0 down in the first 5 mins of the Leicester FA Cup game.
  4. Or reassuring him after Beck coming in.
  5. Those arguing about Cantwell’s ‘position’ would I be right in saying he plays a bit like latter-day Dunny?
  6. I doubt a shirt for age 2-3yrs old would fit me now tbh
  7. Is that Mvogo? I’m sure he was linked on here around the time De Lange was rumoured.
  8. 38th, Championship is 24th. On the other hand, if it’s a Park/Owen/Gestede choice, they’re 2 for 2 so far…
  9. On the GK situation, anything less than a purchase is a failure. The ONE position on the pitch that requires stability. Just fucking buy Iverson or Bentley or Drommel. It’s fucking easy!
  10. That’s what fucking about at the back gets us.
  11. That’s what fucking about at the back gets us.
  12. If Duru had the confidence to knock it past his man more (he’s been successful both times he’s done it), he could be genuinely superb.
  13. I think he’s actually a talented player, just an arsehole unfortunately. If (doing a LOT of heavy lifting) JE reckons he can get a tune out of him on the cheap, I wouldn’t mind him trying.
  14. Surely Brandon Williams on a free is being looked at?
  15. Two of my fondest England memories were under his management. THAT win over Germany, and THAT Beckham free kick. I don’t begrudge that he didn’t manage Rovers. Prioritising family is always the right choice.
  16. Well no, it’s like your wife losing £200/year for ten years, winning £400 on the lottery. You want to spend £100 on some new clothes instead of kidding yourself you can squeeze into medium-size jeans, but wife insists on keeping it in the bank so that she can ‘cancel out’ the £200/year she intends to lose for the next two years.
  17. We did well in both cups the previous season, look what happened. We did well in the cup 2002, look what happened, stayed in the PL. Personally treat the cups as momentum gainers (and money).
  18. You’ve been physically sick since 2004, when longsider joined? Under ‘the old regime’ too.
  19. As am I 😅 I’m thinking along the lines of experience over much else.
  20. Moved JRC up to the wing, Carter at RB. I’d drop Hyam til after the international break personally, he needs reminding to put some effort in.
  21. My team (assuming no further injuries) would be: New/Pears JRC. McFadz. Batth. New/Pickering Tronstad Travis Hedges Ohashi Weimann Gueye Go in, go hard, beat the fuck out of them.
