Whitey Grandad

£100,000 is better than nothing.

Did you not see the header that deflected the cross?

Worst? Says who?

For a true evaluation you would have to compare the performances after sticking with a standard defence against introducing an extra centre back.

That old chestnut again. It all derives from a comment by one poster. Just one. Yet we keep getting silly references to it. That's so childish.

That's a meaningless statistic which doesn’t apply when discussing space in your own defensive area. You have to consider what they are doing with their 35% of the ball.

Except when it doesn't...

Has he not noticed?

Yep

The forward passes have to be available though. When all of our attackers are tightly man marked there are not a lot of options and trying to bypass them on the wings may be the only option.

What is this obsession with going to three at the back? Two CBs who have spent the whole game working as a pair and covering each other suddenly find they've got a third colleague getting in their way and confusing them. Not to mention that it leaves us a man down somewhere else on the pitch.

No advantage? Or did he just whistle too soon?

Still no clean sheet. And no sign of one.

So what?

England v Argentina and Tuchel all over again.

Stupid, idiotic, crass substitutions.

Not convinced.

Yes he has, thanks. He bought one through his own account on the 28th August. I don't know why he couldn't do it before since he met all the criteria.

That's laughable.

Does anybody know of a local chippie that uses beef dripping?

Cooked in beef dripping.

Harwood-Bellend

I was there too. I remember Dave Beasant coming onto the pitch to keep us 'entertained' whilst we were kept back for an hour.

They were in an unnatural position.

A very clear handball irrespective of what happened after.
