  1. The select a seat option is quite possibly the worst I’ve ever encountered. Anyway, Block 549 here. Let’s have it.
  2. The only positive is that he will be gone. Bring on the championship.
  3. Sounds like a good performance, but how many goals have we conceded in the last 10 minutes this season? It seems like a record for us and it is utterly soul destroying.
  4. Think Swansea will fly out the traps, perhaps get a goal early on...I don't see us keeping a clean sheet... Really could go either way. I just hope the players are pumped up for it. You'd thought they would have been for the Semi Final...but the performance then was lacklustre. All we need is one hero. It has to be a win tonight. Nothing else will do.
  5. I'm afraid history is repeating itself. The Bertrand moment felt just like Crouch's back in 2005....against Everton, Where he should have taken the ball to the corner... didn't and then Everton scored with the last kick of the game to make it 2-2.
  6. Felt the ref yesterday was horrendous - Quite easily could have given pens for the challenges on Long & Cedric - Both Watford players nowhere near the ball and took both out. The shove in the back on Boufal just summed up his performance. As many have stated, taking Boufal off was the wrong call - We were all over them because we had width!
  7. Think we're nailed on to lose tomorrow - New manager, Benteke loves scoring against us and we are very average at the moment. I'd take a point. And a goal.
  8. Well, I went for free yesterday. It was almost as turgid as the wolves game. In fact, it was probably on par with it. We have no creative threat whatsoever. We have no height. Every goal kick was aimed for Bertrand, which was then almost every time lost, handing the ball back to Watford. Having Redmond/ Boufoul on the pitch should mean we have some attacking intent. Yet going forward we are utterly clueless. We have no idea how to break teams down and have no plan B. Watford aren't world beaters, but they had a plan and they executed it perfectly. I think Davis should be dropped, Lemina should have played and think MP really needs to consider a formation change - Give Gabba some support up top, to go 90 mins without a shot on target in the top flight of professional football is in my view a disgrace.
  9. Well I guess he's not going to get a leaving video when he eventually does leave now.
  10. Davis along with Forster were probably the only two players who were under par today. He didn't track the Itd player for the second goal and just wasn't as switched on as everyone else. Also a pathetic effort in the wall for the first goal. Stephens was at fault for the third goal but you can't criticise him, otherwise he didn't put a foot wrong. Thought the ref had a poor game, along with his assistants.. thought the situation where he booked Stephens could have simply been avoided if he gave the foul on the first place! Utd players surrounding the ref is hardly surprising... Genuinely think we out performed Utd in every respect - players, fans, just the whole day really. One to remember bar the result! And they can never take away our celebrations for our second goal!
  11. We've got sunderland next week?
  12. I'd like to see...(I realise we won't play this formation): ---------------McCarthy----------------- Martina--Yoshida--Stephens--McQueen -----------Reed----Hojbjerg------------- ---Rodriguez-----JWP-------Boufal---- ------------------Austin------------------ Although I'm sure there will be a few more youngsters involved - Austin is in form, keep him that way. Give him 60 minutes and bring on Olomola/Seager (If he's not injuried) on for the last 30.
  13. Really hope he doesn't leave, but i'm more then confident we'll have a replacement lined up. We have Europe to offer and arguably our best ever squad - Onwards and upwards SFC.
  14. Agreed - Villa haven't got bad players, just don't rate Sherwood - They will be up for tonight and will be a tough game.
  15. Mane reminds me of Papa Waigo. Fast, tricky to play against, just very, very frustrating. Probably too lightweight. Although it's not nice, Davis has cost us the game today. The first one you can kinda forget about, but the other two..... shocking. The second one he could have gone even further into the box, yet still dragged it miles wide. JWP was the wrong man to take off. Thought Yoshida played well - Apart from the error on the goal. Both of their goals came from us giving away possession needlessly. Although our second started from Super Kelv and ended up in the net. Should have been a win today, we knew how they would play - From the back, they didn't like the pressure. Unfortunately gave them too much space in midfield. Worried about Schinderlin as well, could be his season over.
  16. Think he picked up a knock in warm up as wasn't out at half time. Did look ****ed off though walking home.
  17. Would go with: ---------------------Forster------------------------- ---------Fonte------ Toby-------- Yoshida------------- Clyne----JWP-----Wanyama----Schinderlin---Bertrand --------------Long------------Mane-------------------- -----------------------Pelle------------------------------ Clyne / Bertrand as wing backs to counter Palace on the flanks. Would drop Pelle but who else can play up top?
  18. We pay £36 a month for all channels (including movies and sports), which I don't think is too bad - Keep an eye out for codes which get released sometimes, we got ours from moneysavingexpert.
  19. The thing with last night, was the chance for the club to do something different - Actually excite the fans. A semi final, no matter what cup competition, is always a great occasion, especially for a club like us. We now face the realistic prospect of our season 'dying' away with another mid table finish and boring end to the season. Although, we have come along way and shouldn't be complaining about this!!! Extremely disappointed however we are still 5th in the league - Let's not lose too much hope.
  20. It's different for everyone - You can't say '2 pints is over' for everyone because it's not. Age, gender, build, etc are all factors. If you have a drink, you shouldn't drive. Simple.
  21. When Rickie left, We thoughts that it, We're gonna be, really ****, And everyone that was to go, Was being brought by Liverpool..... When Lallana left, we thought that's it, Who will we, just have left, Then Lovern went, the massive **** And left us no-one at the back, So koeman came, And made some noise, The squad was full of little boys, So signings galore, we brought players in, and then there's this guy, We bought for ten mil, You've had your time, You've got the power, Your about to have your finest hour, SADIO!!!! All we hear is, Sadio Mane.... Needs some work but lol
  22. Arsenal away lol
  23. Spurs or Burton at home.
  24. I'd love to get paid £15k a week or whatever it is to sit on a bench.
