cheers

LOL ! Actually I’ve spoken to TC on three separate occasions and he’s been friendly and chatty each time. The last time was on a club open day and my grandson asked him something about artificial turf. Same session TC said Harry Maguire would play for England one day. TC obviously saw somethin.

I saw TC in the club car park, asked him when he going to write his book, said he was thinking about it and stop stalking me. The first part was true.

All the criticisms and observations of players weaknesses , limitations and piss poor attitudes surely has to be down to the training and coaching staff and Wilder. If Trusty can’t tackle or position himself surely that’s down to the coaches to work on with the player, same applies across the...

« one of the poorest », some optimism then!

Agreed. I come to this place also to be in the company of like minded individuals. It’s a bit like a sanctuary. I’m in France currently and can’t bring myself to watch Wilder throw players under a bus if that’s what he’s done, if so shame on him. Good luck to you and a speedy recovery to your Mrs

Hope things aren’t too bad. My mother was laid low after a stroke and I had one after an angiogram in hospital now fully recovered. Some things more important than football.

I can’t believe fans are to some extent letting the coaching staff and Wilder off the hook. If players are shit, and they clearly are at this level it’s for the back room staff to help them

Nail on head for me. I know there are obvious exceptions but the attraction for foreign money is largely London and darn sarf. History passed us by.

Tha writes well. Couldn’t agree more. They are however caught in a bit of a double bind. The thing that’s made them «great » is the English Pyramid football system which has depth, longevity, and culturally deeply entrenched within English life. Everyone, football fans or no , can identify the...

I suspect a lot of football fans wouldn’t be too upset to see the elite clubs leaving the English game to join some sort of European/Global set up, its the fans of those clubs who’d be most put out. That said those elite clubs know that would be throwing the baby out with the bath water. The...

I was at that match, can’t remember anything other than the result

I remember Pat Buckley.

Surely he’s got more professional ambition and self respect than than playing in Scotland

BBD has youth on his side as well,to increase the value

That is the question. Not their fault they’re rubbish

Can’t say too enthused to think that CWAK will be there next season

Better still we could send our location to the club and said Steward could meet us at the pub to hand it over

« might » ! be an improvement ! God help us !

Not dreading it but no fun in watching your team getting another drubbing and looking at disappointed angry fans. We’ve become specialists in black humour.

I record matches and even if we win I can’t be bothered to watch, just wipe it off. Disillusioned or what ?

I’ll be buying but only cos my match going mate will be. I also like the crowd who surround us, been the same group for years. If my mate says he’s not bothered I’ll have to give it some consideration. I do agree our crowd will be the lowest for a few years given the apathy that this seasons...

Maybe we haven’t bottomed out yet. Could be a tough last 10 game run 😞

Bournemouth at home was worse. It was at that point I realised how shit we were. As you say I’m happily numb to results and have been for weeks, winning at Luton had a similar effect, « big deal »

Ultimately I suppose it’s the owners fault, takes the credit when it’s good invisible when it’s bad. However I don’t think Wilder should be given a pass on blame here. Wilder and his team are meant to guide the players , motivate them, prepare them and give them the tactical nous to compete. I...

I take your point but that feels to me like you’ll take any punishment because you paid the bus fare to get there. As you say, personal choice

It s a bizarre feeling, never left early in 58 years of going to games but I now honestly assume I’ll be leaving before half time, it’s become normalised. We all have the same discussion in the pub beforehand. about how long we’ll be in the ground. We all caught the same train home at 9pm. Had a...

I know, the b***ard

‘cos at 0-3 down you know it’s only going to get worse, my mate persuaded me to wait till the 4th

I’m back in the pub so quickly these days it feels like an all day session. I could have a tom tit and be back as quick. I get a hard on more often than United score and I’m f****d
