  1. Will try to keep this in context but what a total lot of dross that was! Really struggling to find positives. Wait, found one, Stoke tickets turned up this morning ... hopefully a different side turns up for that one!
  2. Hoiveld, too tight. Clyne caught out. Seriously are defence have been so poor today!
  3. Woah lets not all panic just yet, we've been second best but not by a long way, hopefully we'l come out better in the second half. A very solid bench to pick from. We still should be safe no matter todays result and we all knew Fox struggles for position, our formation allows us to leave space out wide when defending as midfielders dont always know which runners to pick up and Jos will never have pace. Fancy us to score in the second half, a point will do. Holiday mentality cliches in abundance!
  4. At least wait till five o'clock, jeees!
  5. Corr just frustrating! Jos is looking like the sort of player he was at the start of the season, far too easy for wba to put it over the top! Be interesting to see if MP makes any changes at half time ..
  6. Depends how you acquire the other child ...
  7. Theo I think so, we were in serious decline when we left. Not sure how he would have developed with us or if he'd gone elsewhere but he's certainly doing well if not spectacularly so. Chamberlain you may have a point. Could have been a pivotal part of our side and would have had plenty of game time and, if we continue to progress, he could have moved on to the top level with us. Either way both players are good lads and we should be proud. Between Bale, AOC and Theo there arent too many young british players around as exciting as those coming through our academy! All three > Wellbeck
  8. Squad or first team? Don't see him as better then what we've got yet but plenty of potential and ticks the young english boxes
  9. Nathan Redmond? Telegraph have him linked with Fulham, WBA and Norwich. Brum are seriously skint so surely less then £5mil, always liked the look of him and still v much in the "young and hungry" camp at nineteen with room to imrove under Poch. To be honest I'd kind of forgot about him but still, any opinions?
  10. Missed the boat on this, article already published, a link has been posted above
  11. Didnt actually answer the queston though did you?
  12. I dont know, thats what he alleges and has been alleged by others, but im sure you know it cant be 100% proven. What Cantona did was not ok, he got an eight month ban! Ten games is light. What would your punishment be for an assault from a man with a history of assaults and racially abusing people? Perhaps you think it's severe but plainly previous punishments have served as no detterent.
  13. You'r confusing racism. It can be due to more then simply skin colour. As somebody who's family had escaped fascism under Franco he may well have every right to be sensitive about such discrimination.
  14. Cantona kicked somebody hurling racist abuse. Not ok behaviour but Suarez attacked Ivanovich without genuine provocation. Suarez is a repeat offender (Biting, diving, racism, handballing, punching) and tried to bite somebody AGAIN, all this "oh he didn't draw blood" ... I dont think it was through a lack of trying! Once again he, and Liverpool, are showing no class. Accept that he's done wrong and stop trying to blame everyone else.
  15. Dont care so long as its cheap, was pretty much standard prices last year and they barely sold tickets!
  16. Dont think it should or will happen. Promotion sure, avoiding relegation on the last day of the season, sure.
  17. Such as student to Adult etc? Dont imagine it'd be an issue. Option one speak to the ticket office and explain, option two do nothing and just scan through the automated barriers. The joys of modern technology eh!
  18. Fair shout, good luck getting your lad to a game at the start of next season, hope he has a cracking time and stays away from those northern sides!
  19. Precisely. Hopefully he makes an appearance before the end of the season and kicks on in preseason, shows people what hes made of!
  20. Hope not! Hopefully he'l be determined enough to see it as an oppurtunity to prove why he should be in the first team.
  21. Flawed logic perhaps but he was fancied by Liverpool and over decent sides across Europe, has a good number of caps as a young player for a decent national side ... must be something to the lad even if he's yet to show it. I maintain it's too early to really evaluate him until, perhaps, january next year. If, after a full pre season etc, he still hasnt made the side and put in some decent shows then pitchforks out
  22. Seems bizarre that they didnt, as mentioned above, link games like they have in previous seasons. To be honest I was happy to go to S****horpe to get tickets to see Portsmouth, was actually a good day out that one! Dismayed the points system has been so, frankly, pointless this season and genuinely gutted for those who missed out for the Stoke game. Fortunately being a student working from home for a while spending most of my morning online trying to get tickets was no issue - sure plenty of other folk who sat through the dross that was Wigan, Sunderland or the fa cup hammering from Chelsea should have had a realistic shot at getting tickets for this one!
  23. Dont think you'r jumping the gun a touch ..?
  24. I dont know when/if its ever been used. I've racked up plenty of points but been competing with everyone else on general sale all season. Only thing different today is they didnt allow new accounts to be set up but that certainly doesnt take into account priority as anyone could have an account without ever having purchased tickets ...
  25. Im all sorted, helpful hint, avoid using firefox. First time its ever not worked but spent nearly an hour using that with no luck, intenet explorer five minutes, sorted.
