Tyrone Shoelaces

Strange appointment. Going off their display against Barrow last night he’s got a big job on his hands.

Come home lads.

I don’t recall Big Ron doing many step overs in his playing career.

We used to call it “ a quietener “. As in “ Their No 10 is playing well Tyrone, you better quieten him “.

If we sell Brererton we’ll need another striker. Have we given up on JRC as a right wing back ?

This game won’t be last one to be called off I’m afraid. We’ve got a tough few weeks ahead. Surely Watford won’t be able to play at the weekend now ?

2nd half much more of an arm wrestle. It stayed 2-0. Ipswich looked like a team that had 19 new players this season. No cohesion or real shape. Marty Platt had a good game for Barrow. White and Grayson were a bit more peripheral.

They’re playing all the football in this game.

Walton’s picked two out already. Barrow look a nice footballing team.

Tonight’s Burnley v Watford game has been called because of Covid in the Watford camp.

I can’t see Newcastle gambling on Brererton getting them out of the mire. With the funds they’ve got they’ll be going for a more high profile striker.

I’d have to see him play for a month or two before I’d be signing in. Bad backs are notoriously troublesome.

No, just leave it as it is Tony as long as we’re winning.

Has Maja actually kicked a ball yet this season ? Just asking.

Do you think selling one of our better players at this point in the season will do anything to increase those crowds ?

No mention of a right back then ?

I agree with a lot of that but sometimes luck can play a part. The last time we got relegated 9 seasons out 10 we would have had enough points to stay up. It was just that particular season was very competitive down at the bottom. In that respect we could count ourselves unlucky I think. With the Prem normally at least one, if not two, of the newly promoted teams will go straight back down. One “established “ team will have a bad season - injuries, bad managerial appointment, etc, and they’ll go down. If you can avoid being that team normally you can stay up.

The guy from the Guardian at yesterday’s match wasn’t too impressed with the Dingles - “ Sean Dyche’s bland team put the stale into stalemate “. “ Lukas Fabianski only had to field one, tame attempt on target “. “ Goal droughts are more common amongst the Burnley players, however. They were poor in possession, lacking fluency or creativity.” “ I would take the point and the clean sheet “ said the pragmatist in Dyche. They have a solitary win in 15 and the Championship is starting to loom large. “ “ He ( Dyche ) chose a midfield who lack a goal between them this season “.

Teams that score near the end of the game are teams with a good mentality. They don’t panic and start lumping it into the box from all over the place. They keep playing their football and they keep looking for openings. They know that it only takes 5 seconds or so to create a scoring chance.

Yes, some of us have longer memories than a gold fish. Great player but another one who crapped on the club.

Yes I can see that happening.

Johnson’s giving us another pep talk at 8-00 tonight. I can see changes regarding football being on the agenda.

Not so good at English though. Damn.

I felt like I’d kicked every ball at the end !

Or get fit.
