  1. Its a midweek pre Christmas cup game though so in no way a fair representation or justification for the horrendous pricing. We always say this but a quarter final place is at stake and it helps to build momentum. Plus we are just off a months break.
  2. Kaminski Rankin Costello Hyam Wharton Pickering Buckley Wharton Hedges Dack Brereton Dolan Subs: Pears, Mola, Phillips, Travis, Morton, Szmodics, Markanday, Hirst, Gallagher There is a quarter final at stake and a chance to build momentum. Lets bloody go for it.
  3. The key is always quality rather than ownership. I have been critical of Morton but he looks much better than Garrett at the moment, and Harlock is seemingly even behind him, therefore he should be above him. Adam Wharton IMO is the one of them all who looks ready NOW but he should be playing not because we have lost players and are expecting graduates to fill their spots, but because he as an individual is good enough. Wharton is a real asset even in the here and now, Vale and Garrett not so much.
  4. Nobody said that teams at the top of the league shouldn't be shown. Just not every single bloody game to the point whereby there isn't a 3 o clock kick off for a couple of months.
  5. It is strange how being battered by local rivals in consecutive games by using totally counterproductive tactics causes supporters to be upset.
  6. I have never suggested that games shouldnt be on TV. I merely proposed a potential capping of them broadcasting more than a certain number of games for one specific team within any time period to minimise disruption to any individual fanbase. Sky dont care about inconveniencing supporters though, and seemingly because it doesnt affect you personally, neither do you.
  7. Yes we are filling lots of gaps at the same time. Wharton, Phillips, Vale, Garrett and then potentially Batty would be 5 at once. Wharton is a first team ready player now, the others not so much.
  8. Even on here, I bet if you did a poll, only the odd exception at most would not want Tomasson out. Lots of posts on social media biting back at those calling for the managers head as if it was a widespread thing, when it wasnt even after 2 batterings to local rivals.
  9. I think he could get a move to the Premier League or at worst a club with parachute money.
  10. I don't get how Gyokeres would be a realistic signing. Even if Venkys allowed reinvestment of any Brereton sale proceeds which is unlikely, Gyokeres surely would have doubts about coming here.
  11. Because I don't know. Doesn't in any way reduce the validity of my opinion that Smith and in particular Appleton would be very lucky to merit continuing with their jobs.
  12. I don't think we should just expect them to fill so many gaps all at the same time. If Batty as an individual (when fit) is deemed to be capable of performing well at Championship level now, then fine, otherwise we need to look to sign another left back. It shouldn't just be a case of, we are a player short in x position, expect a kid to fill in.
  13. Yep, typical response. No empathy for anyone with potential inconveniences that he doesn't. Also the fact that games in general have been moved for TV historically doesn't mean that is fair or even unfixable to be arrange with the current lack of thought towards match going fans.
  14. Obviously like anyone would Argentina do have a reliance on Messi and I do think there are perhaps on paper better squads than theirs but they do have some good other players. Alvarez is a real talent up front and a quality signing by Man City, Enzo Fernandez deservedly won young player of the tournament, Di Maria is still someone that is playing at a high level, Romero and a surprisingly often unused Lisandro Martinez are 2 of the best centre backs in the Premier League, Mac Allister has always caught the eye for Brighton, Emiliano Martinez is a very good keeper and Rodrigo De Paul is another good player playing at a high level.
  15. I wouldnt play an attacking player there but I dont necessarily think that the answer for the here and now is in the academy. Edun is hopeless and as poor a defensive full back as I can remember. Not convinced that Mola is much better either.
  16. Not a clue. I can judge whether I think a manager should be sacked without a list of potential replacements. I dont get why Richardson would walk into another Championship job.
  17. @roverandout I thought you wasnt watching?
  18. Batty has a bad injury but even if he didnt, it can be dangerous to be too expectant on the academy by filling numerous spaces with untested kids.
  19. Phillips isnt a direct replacement for a player 15 years or so his senior. He also has struggled when he has played, maybe he should be loaned out for the second half of the season.
  20. Its not about just you and how you are affected. My point about away games was that others who do attend WILL be affected. That last quote sums your lack of empathy up to a tee. As long as you are ok.
  21. Absolutely fantastic match and brilliant end to a very entertaining World Cup.
  22. Martin isnt a particularly good manager, passing for passings sake above results. Would be a sentimental choice. 5th for most teams would not be something to consider the sack over, but Norwich have parachute money.
  23. Id say Lenihan was a warrior, braver and would stick his head in much more willingly than Hyam. But more rash and didnt read the game as well. Lenihan was also better at winning headers in his own box, Hyam more adept at doing what he kept doing tonight and snuffing out danger on the floor ie closing space for attackers.
  24. Its not about notice, and I doubt many neutrals desperately want to watch us. You seemingly have no care for basically all of our games being moved to less convenient times, especially for away games in which you seldom attend so with a lack of empathy dont care about away fans, think what time they will be back today. There should also be a spread of teams.
