    No prize as it woud have been ridiculous to not have tried an experienced manager. It didnt work as Juric had the players yearning for Russ back and their total messed up minds as the muscle memory of playing negative pass back football. I hope Ruskcan somehow work his magic to get oneor 2 more points

    Sadly he looked as if he was living on the streets most of the time, but I liked his honesty and he didnt hold back
  3. We had 2 otherbids he turned down. I was tod one was the Burnley new owners, so that would be crap and the other had some sort of connection to a French side that was folded.
  4. So you think that giving players dog abuse gets us anywhere? Yes they have been gutless at times, but its not their fault they are not good enough, or the owners have been useless. You can have as many marches as you like but the owners will not sell as they are not going to have any takers. The fans are and have been fantastic so why fee embarrassed, more embarrassing having fans throw abuse and bile one minute and then worship them the next minute

    I think I read that there is a relegation clause on his contract

    The plan might be if it aint broke break it..... or youve broken it and break it time and again

    well we will see if you are correct
  8. how many games and goals has he scored since joining WBA , i dont know btw
  9. i really dont want ipswich to stay up, theres something about their manager i really dont like.Last mnuteequaliser for Wolves would be amusing
  10. My friend who used to be the kitman used to do the same (not sure if it was Gambia) The club allowed him todo so. He used to take deflated footballs ( and the valve to blow them up) and give them to schools, they used to get lots of pencils etc from others but they really needed things like footballs.

    Are we sure Rohl is the answer? He obviously has done well at SW butcan he build here? It was interesting the other night how we set up and played a more pragmatic system, I wonder if Spors has been in Jurics ear and got us playing a way he wants and perhaps he may keep IJ until the end of the season to see if there is progression. The squad seem happier, and did give their all.
  12. Great but sad story, I credit you for voicing ths andhopefully you are over it now. As for Brand, he may be an addict but the general public put him into a position where he could take advantage ofhis 'addiction'. My god our society laps up people like him and they are then put into positions where their weirdness is used in a negative terrible way. Im sure I wasnt the only who knew he was a wrongun and even as a kid knew that Savill was as well. We just seem to need this type of person coming on the TV set everyday.
  13. another interesting listen, but I feel Martins assumption that when we are relegated that Juric will be shown the door is off the mark. I believe the contract has a clause to get rid at the end of the season and so why will the club pay out money for a few months/weeks . I assume Spors is in his ear what he wants and so will see if Juric is up to acting it out before pulling the plug.

    Im not angry with him, but when called upon I would expect a better attitude. He may not be up to it, or as it seems in your world he hasnt got his 2nd daddy on the touchline and so gives him a valid excuse not to give effort. I totally agree that he was not the reason we lost the goal THB has to take a major slice of that. I havent seen the goal again apart from a snippet, but he ran out to the ball rather than get back to his place in defence.

    Sorry, but should I hold his coat and sachel as he stands around while the rest of the team are busting a gut. He is a young developing player who was asked to come on and play for 10 minutes and give his all. He will of course swan off and earn his fortune elsewhere (rightfully so) but its not too much to ask for him to actually show care to the club fans and teammates. As for the kick and run style you mention, I believe that is unjustified as we played some good pass and move football, TP had gone off and so it wasnt expected of him to hoof it up. I know you are a disciple of RM and so any player who says that they loved him will have a special place in your heart but TD has to adapt to a new manager and will need to do so at any club he moves to. One thing is for sure he wont get as much slack from big clubs fans as he gets here. We are sympathetic to him, but asking for him to give us something when all hands are at the pump is not too much to ask.

    All fair and I dont want to knock him too much but when we relly needed a spark it just wasnt there
  17. They won their cup final and since then have fallen away.
  18. Yep I think we all agree on hat, but when the players are going down cramping or indicating they have it what can you do? Sad that TP never can play the full game, always gets cramp or limps off near the end. I believe had he made the whole game we may well of held on as we lost so much when he went off
  19. Who else is there who is isnt injured? Ryan Frazer is a difficult one, he was so close to RM that perhaps hes sulking and his appearances this seaon (not many I accept) he has not made any impact. Perhaps Lallana may have been a calming influence at the end, I grant you that

    I just sdont understand his attitude, he seemed to care little but perhpas the pressure has got to him. He so should have helped us by running with the ball but just gave it away
  21. Thise tap ins were a bit more than that, we havent anybody else who gets near to rebounds. He was quicker to the ball at Ipswich and the ball coming back off the post against Wolves took quick reaction.Yes he has scored with 2 headrers, but even you will admit to the case we havent played to those strengths and not got the ball into the box to let him get more.
  22. I dont agree, they hit the br in the first couple of minutes, Ramsdale made a worldy, EZE went to the wrong side when he should have scored and Nketiah's shot looked as it was going in but went over. All in all it was a fair point but we feel we should have won due to us playing the best we have for a long time
  23. Well to be fair, Les and TP were unable to continue. Fans believe that we had a 100m player to bring on for Sully ( well my valuation of 20m looks over the top after last night) TP limping off was crucial and Flynn going off as well. Juric said Flynn was cramping and so had to take him off. It is typical of our season that when we were doing well the main players who helped in that had to be replaced by dross. KWP had his best game for ages and as usual MF was briliant. Bednarek apart from the first minute did well.
  24. Well he is,he is a PL striker who has scored goals. As for stats they are misleading, that team and until last night we havent utilised his assets. Perhaps now IJ is going to use his strengths and the naysayers will perhaps go away. Archer or TP? I would have him all day long

    Well I feel the players fought for him and us last night, and when players left the field they acknowledged IJ in a warm way. Im not saying we should keep him, but he is not as disliked as some like to believe
