  1. If only, but Waggott ain't resigning unless the next managerial appointment is made above his head. He currently intends to be part of the appointment and stay at the club.
  2. Ah yes, when Jason Lowe had the ball passed to him, only to shield it out of play from the oncoming Nofuckerthere.
  3. This is like having my life played back at me. Our Lives, Series 5: Born Deaf, Raised Hearing: www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m0017174 via @bbciplayer
  4. I do feel that Mowbray's tactical nous is a great analogy for how Venkys run us as a club: Constantly getting the main decisions wrong, and we just have to hope they stumble on something that works.
  5. I'm glad that it's Liverpool Vs Real Madrid, I like the traditional feel of it. Two clubs steeped in European Cup history, it feels old school.
  6. I've gone back onto iPlayer to rewatch an old favourite from 2004-2012: Hustle. Not too complicated to watch or particularly dramatic, but a good bit of harmless drama involving cons who target bad people. Watching it backs there are hundreds of cameos from people who are now really well known!
  7. The whole club is just not run very sharply anymore.
  8. I mentioned Knutsen a while back as a left-field option, but no idea how realistic it is. I think chaddy has mentioned him in recent weeks too.
  9. Available managers that I'd drive here myself. Some because they're great, some because they'd be a relatively safe pair of hands in VenkyWorld. Farke, Dyche, Low, Zidane, Lasarte, Santo, Favre, Bielsa, Villas-Boas, Allardyce, Wagner, DiMatteo, Monk, Blanc, DeBoer, Fonseca, VanBommel.
  10. Why have 3 colleagues asked me about Lee Carsley today? Anyone know anything?
  11. Spitballing: A Venky on the ground permanently might not be a bad thing. Actual, direct involvement from the owners at long last.
  12. Take note of what happens when tickets are well-priced, Mr. Waggott!
  13. He's not my first choice, but he'd be a good 'relieved Venkys didn't go mental' appointment.
  14. Don't you mean Ken Éstavo?
  15. That was a Rhodes finish from Trav!
  16. Very unlucky from Wharton, but shows we can't get cocky.
  17. Right, let's really turn them over, come on.
  18. None of it is his fault, but his subsequent treatment of the fans and the players certainly is his fault.
  19. That reads to me like you're arguing with him but agreeing with him. That is exactly Rev's opinion. He feels more strongly about Mowbray BECAUSE he should really have gone 2 years ago instead of continuing to stink the place out. He's not nefarious in the way Kean was, but he's certainly acted more like Kean this season, slagging off the fans on numerous occasions, telling us 'the SAS aren't here anymore' as if we think we should be winning the PL. My own resentment comes from three places: 1. He should've gone 2 seasons ago. 2. He pretends he's nice but is really quite a snide guy when (fairly) criticised. 3. He's blown our best chance at promotion in a decade in spectacular fashion, and doesn't seem to give the slightest toss about it. He's not as bad as Kean, but he's definitely getting there if he doesn't leave this summer. Remember there are folk who wanted him out after 5 games in L1, so it's not like he's covered himself in glory since.
  20. A very Waggott response 😂
