  1. He couldn't have got that shot more in the top corner if he'd have placed it there with his hands. Even Brad wouldn't have got to that one.
  2. Yes, of course you're right but before long if things carry on as they are the game will become a non contact sport.
  3. One of my criticism of Mowbray is that in spite of him being in charge for over three years our ball retention, passing, and movement off the ball is still laboured, pedestrian and obvious. If we want to do better that has to improve a lot.
  4. I think a lot depends how old you are. Back in the day you had to be caught taking the lace out the the ball with both hands before the ref would give a pen. Now I see some amazingly poor decisions were a player is barely touched and goes down like a log. Huddersfield at home this season stands out but there are loads of others. If you are young and that is all you know both of those incidents today were pens. For me both were harsh.
  5. Two soft ones today. You could see those two incidents in another game and nothing would be given.
  6. If you're the away team and you get a penalty you can bet your boots that if you give the ref a chance to even it up he will.
  7. Lots of players aren't good in that situation, they blink first. Greaves was the acme of cool, he could outwait any goalkeeper.
  8. Wether you like it or not teams that get promoted see those games out one way or another from 2-0 up.
  9. He needs to watch some old film of Jimmy Greaves. He was a master in those situations. If he had a one on one you could get ready for the kick off again.
  10. Not when your goalkeeper can't move for bodies. Get your quickest forward on the halfway line, Armstrong's not going to be much use in defence anyway.
  11. Damian Duff, Matt Jansen, Andy Cole all in one body. Possibly the best pure goalscorer I ever saw.
  12. Yes, there are some great goals in that lot. I'd be happy scoring any one of them.
  13. Maybe when Dack was playing other players were looking for something special from him to turn a game. Now he's missing possibly more of them are taking responsibility.
  14. The " Fulham Goal " is the last one in that series of clips.
  15. I think Bennett has been carrying an injury recently.
  16. Yes I read that. It was such a shame he got injured after all that effort. I still think he's the sort of striker that needs three good chances to score a goal but if he puts himself about those chances will come.
  17. That's the bottom line. Until he can reach the level he was at before the injury I can't see him going anywhere.
  18. Or losing to Luton and Charlton at home !
  19. Samuel was never going to be the next Benni McCarthy but he could develop into the next Jason Roberts. Nothing wrong with that at this level. He has the physical attributes, size, strength and pace but in the past I thought his attitude left a bit to be desired. He seemed to get discouraged easily. Maybe the serious injury has focused his mind on what life could be like out of the game.
  20. Listening to Radio Lancs it sounds like the Blackpool lads were busting a gut for Dunny. I like Joey Barton - a Robbie Savage with ability.
  21. Cunningham, so good they named him twice !
  22. Don't forget he brought Andy Irvine and Rob Kelly in also. I thought that appointment was the only logical thing the Chicken Chokers have done in 10 years.
  23. From what bits I've seen of Maddison he's got a similar style to Dack.
  24. I couldn't believe how Fulham left Tugay un-marked outside the area ! That was just asking for trouble.
