  1. Hopefully a good signing. He was in the Scottish PFA Team of the year for last season.
  2. Great start to the season continues. Eustace has instilled a resilience in to the team which means we chisel out the points.
  3. One of the "duds" that Broughton signed has just been sold to Ipswich in the Premier League for a substantial profit.
  4. Especially if the reports of his wages being in the region of £1.3m a year are true.
  5. That is correct. This point is specifically addressed in the explanatory notes to the Football Governance Bill published May, stating "An individual incumbent owner or director can only be tested on their fitness or,with respect to owners, their source of wealth .Incumbent owners will not be tested on their financial resources or required to submit a financial plan. This is because the ongoing financial sustainability of clubs is already addressed through financial regulation requirements elsewhere in the legislation."
  6. Alternatively, the large number of goalkeepers that Benson has coached who have made it to the Premier League might suggest that he knows what he is doing.
  7. Because there is no position more than goalkeeping where players improve more as they get older than goalkeeper. Give your head a wobble.
  8. 4 that were good enough to go on to the Premier League.
  9. What do Raya, Steele, Walton and Kaminski think ?
  10. It was stated by the EPL before the season - and explained to the players - that referees would be coming down much harder on blocking at set pieces so the ref was obviously looking out for it. Hughes was naive.
  11. Ultimately is it Waggott and Suhail who decide what fee is acceptable ? Isn't the likely answer that somebody in India has sent over an instruction that no offers below a certain amount can be accepted ?
  12. From memory did his ACL in April so would be the fastest recovery since Lazarus.
  13. The Sky commentators said he had done brilliantly for the save for the corner.
  14. The Sky commentators picked out Travis as failing to mark properly.
  15. Good start and it looks like the doom and gloom predictions of certain relegation are considerably overstated. The criticism of Pears - which now includes criticism of him for leaving alone a shot which did not go in - is becoming silly. He had no chance with either goal. Gueye looks a very good acquisition - both goals conceded came after he had gone off and his defending at set pieces was reminiscent of how Drogba was used by Chelsea.
  16. No - defence of the people who give up their free time to represent supporters . Would have thought they are entitled to some respect.
  17. The problem is that the club isn't self sufficient. So what do they do when it becomes apparent ?
  18. Be fair. He did break the news that Duncan Ferguson would be appointed manager.
  19. For those who think that there was a chance that Klopp would want to take the England job the Daily Telegraph website are reporting that he has confirmed that he will be taking the forthcoming season off from football to re-charge his batteries.
  20. Every team can have a bad day - Spain lost to Scotland in the qualifying group.
  21. Correct - and what is noticeable about those demanding a new manager is that not a single one of them has said who it should be.
