Football Special

You just said we're not doing very well so you can't be arsed to go, that's fair enough but is the definition of a fair weather fan I missed plenty of games due to finances / kids being young family commitments etc but never just because we were having a poor run of results

This is the definition of a fair weather fan

Did you comment wishing him a Happy Birthday? How old is the young chap now?

Yep that's too much, will be lucky to get 10k just after Xmas

My kids Xmas presents are resting on this being right , if not the bookies get the money and the kids get discounted Russell Martin t-shirts from the club shop from Santa

I particularly like ding dong pass it round the back 😀 Get the Northam choir singing that

Got to agree on the players, the last relegation they were very unlikable and was happy to see the back of most of them, feel much more positive about most of this side and can't really fault their efforts.

I know plenty of Spurs who are to busy slagging off their own club and Big Ange to be that bothered about us, they also have a tough trip north of the border to play Glasgow Rangers who despite lacking in quality will surely give them a tough night . Wouldn't be surprised if they sack the manager before our game Obviously they couldn't ask for a kinder fixture just now. P.s 7pm on a fucking Sunday night, still can't quite believe they've stuck a game on at that time of day on the Sabbath, those cunts at sky sports probably think it's great for their customer, the armchair fan, or the yanks watching during their Sunday lunch, but it's absolutely shite for those of us who actually go to the games. I know several who rely on public transport who are going to give it a miss, just not worth the hassle.

At times we briefly looked good and moved forward with some purpose, then wasted on a dreadful ball into the box, or cut back instead of taking on a shot.

I've heard similar, there's more issues there than just the manager wanting to play him

I know what you're saying but I've always been a "through thick and thin" fan, manager and board have fucked it up but I still see enough players out there giving it their all who deserve support of the fans

Agreed, If they didn't sack him after Bournemouth or at the very least should have gone after Leicester at home they must be resigned to us going down already and have written off the season

Context - we were missing big money strikers Loch Ness Drogba and Tall Paul so hardly surprising we look blunt up top

Don't be a prick, if he goes long and we "give the ball away" they still have to go through our entire team to score. Go short and give the ball away they get a tap in and score,"going long" doesn't cause the goal, it's the shit defending when the other team next attack.

Is there a video of him saying this? Would like to see it

I think it's because Jones came into a poor performing team and made them even worse immediately, whereas Martin came in at a low point after relegation and took us up so starting from very different perspectives

Blackbore has been a joke for a while, no real analysis and continually let's Martin off easily

Need to print off that graphic and turn it into a banner for the Northam to hold above heads before next game, followed by Martin Out

What would Branfoot have made of Martin's possession tactics? If he appears again can you get some more insights? I'm afraid I've just returned from the future and unfortunately we lose this game 3-0

Lesley had a new assignment keeping ABK company on Saturdays, utter waste of money on wages

Backed Chelsea to win -1 handicap , can't decide on whether to do the same today

It's not likely at all is it.

He was clearly injured and had to come off so still not fit from that

4.30pm on a Sunday for BBC Wales, should guarantee an absolutely tiny crowd for this one
