  1. It won't be a surprise to many on here to find that I agree with you re Tadic. Very anonymous in the 2nd half and again in the first half tried to take an extra touch (as he always does) when a first time shot was required.
  2. Not technically true. The war time article which David Bull and I have been compiling is exclusive to the programme. It probably is not your cup of tea but each article has taken many hours of research.
  3. Yep but it wasn't quite that late
  4. Yea I was there. Lowe opened the meeting reading out a letter from an anonymous fan saying what a good job he was doing. I spoke first and said that he was a divisive figure and he should go and then Chorley did his throwing silver coins act. LM then spoke up as did his wife and the whole thing got out of hand, it was an interesting hour to say the least.
  5. Redknapp yes but Branfoot no. He was a crap manager agreed but a decent man out of his depth. Burley was a decent man but personal issues with the booze (you'll have to take my word for it) meant he lost the plot a bit and the players knew it. Recipe for disaster. Neither man was as duplicitous as Redknapp though.
  6. Le Tissier's inability to be accommodated in the England set up comes to mind. Ramirez was the most skilful player in our squad but these days managers demand much more.
  7. And looked good, I rest my case your honour. I think we have got to nurture our young players and calling them sh1te is pathetic
  8. Give the kid a break. He has been messed around by Koeman all season in terms of being in and out of the team and it must be hard to get rhythm - he was not even in the squad for the Liverpool game and yet gets a starting place in the very next game. At his age he needs to get a run under his belt and once he does I think you will find we have a little gem.
  9. Bit hard to nail down a place when you get dropped even after a good performance. ie Romeu v Liverpool
  10. He might have made more crosses than any other player but how many of them were accurate. Koeman is not the sort of manager to put his arm around a player. Some players need an arm around them sometimes. Does that make Koeman a bad manager? No. It makes him a different manager and his results on the pitch say he is doing something right but perhaps he still has a little to learn in some areas.
  11. Don't think this has much relevance, these days players have so much wealth the odd property is an irrelevance, and is looked at as an investment - especially in Winchester.
  12. A lot rests on what happens to RK this summer - if he doesn't sign the new contract that is being prepared for him then it could well be a more turbulent close season than the last two. Crucial couple of months coming up I reckon.
  13. Don't go Iain!
  14. It was "Doreen" not Diane as I recall
  15. Yep they will but so will Nivea Boy. The more I watch clips of Lambert's contribution to our success the more I rate him. One of the finest forwards ever to wear the red and white imo.
  16. If it was a choice between having £12m in the bank or Long in the squad then the latter for me every day of the week. I said that when we signed him and as far as I am concerned he has already paid us back. If I had a choice between him and yesterday 2 goal hero then I would go for Long.
  17. Pelle pushing Long out wide is a retrograde step. Koeman continually putting pelle in pole position with others having to fit around him is an error.
  18. Doesn't say much for Koemans faith in Yoshida but perhaps he is injured as he's not on the bench either
  19. Not being funny but was the M3 around then?
  20. I remember the dairy and of course the cut by the church which was a match day bottleneck. I remember the vicar rev Scarf an apt name considering his church's location but I don't remember a fish and chip shop around there at all?
  21. Fair play to all those fans that organised, demonstrated and boycotted, proving dissent does sometime pay off. A good day for football and common sense.
  22. Growing up in Archers Road I was lucky as I had no travel problems but I still used to queue up on the pavement outside the Milton Rd turnstiles early so I could bag my place at the front on the wall. For the first hour before the big boys turned up we would sit on the pavement backs against the wall of the ground but one day without realising it I had sat on a big mound of chewing gum and when it was time to stand I couldn't budge. Ruined a pair of trousers.
  23. Yes once we had fallen behind when we had nothing to lose by attacking, but when when Fonte went it was 0-0 and then taking off Mane for Yoshida tells me Koeman was happy then for a point
