Re: Weekend Football

Burnley conceded a goal. :shock: Trafford's run ends at 1,132 minutes, after 12 consecutive clean sheets. I believe this is a new football league record, ahead of our own Steve Death. Another excellent James Trafford stat - he has seven yellow cards this season for time wasting, which must be some ...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Exeter City (h)

What is about us and shit evening performances? just the small matter of Wrexham next Tuesday. Beating the same drum but it’s the 3/5 variation at the back we continuously struggle against. Last night and Shrewsbury a few weeks ago played it and we looked like we had no idea how to break it down. R...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Exeter City (h)

How is Camara still on? Offers absolutely nothing. It's a shame, he has some tidy feet at times but really don't think he'll make it here if he doesn't improve. Selles and Hunt both seem to rate him highly though Coincidence or not, 1 defeat in 14 games when starting (in which the referee contribut...

Re: Weekend Football

Man City appear to be giving Liverpool the title. Christ they’re dull. Got pelters for having that opinion for a while, glad more are sharing it!

Re: MATCHWATCH : Shrewsbury Town (h)

As with the majority of games we’ve played against 3/5 defenders this season, we struggled. Particularly against a 5-2-1-2 as the front two press up, the “1” sits on Wing, we have no out ball, end up under pressure and hoof it up the pitch losing it. Theoretically there should be space out wide but ...

Re: Weekend Football

Arsenal are a comedy sketch

Two seasons in a row they’ve given it the big ‘un yet another trophyless season for them!

Re: MATCHWATCH : Bolton Wanderers (h)

Good performance. I was saying before the game a tight win with the winner right at the end would be the best birthday present I could hope for. And that, dear friends, is exactly what happened. Michael Craig and Harvey Knibbs were the outstanding players for me. Garcia maybe the only player who wo...

Re: Weekend Football

Got to say Moyes is underrated as a manager. The way West Ham fans turned on him for having the temerity to only win them a European trophy and have them mid-table was quite something. But yeah - he has been an unqualified success at three different clubs, and isn't thought of as a top, top manager...

Re: Weekend Football

Burnley have conceded just 9 goals in their 28 league games (6 in their last 24) - and haven’t conceded more than one in any of their games this season Haven’t seen such a strong defensive record at this level Another three games passed since. Another three clean sheets People may call it boring ha...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Burton Albion (a)

Think people are really under estimating the impact losing Mbengue has had on us. This high line we’re playing with effectively no fullbacks in the squad was bailed out time and time again by Mbengue so trying to replicate that with Dean was always going to create problems Which is naivety on Hunt’s...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Leyton Orient (a)

I understand each manager/coach has their preferred style of play but we've gone from playing fast attractive flowing passing football with an amazing high press with a team of youngsters to which it suited these guys well. Now we have ditched the high press, the football is slow and lethargic and ...

Re: Modern football things you don't like

Same teams just alternate between the top end of the Championship and then a relegation fight in the Prem. Burnley, Leeds, Sheffield United, West Brom etc etc. Leicester, Ipswich and Southampton (the three promoted sides last season) likely to be the same three teams that subsequently get relegated ...

Re: Weekend Football

Personally, I'd be more confident of Forest NOT making CL than Liverpool winning the title. Liverpool have been brilliant for large parts of the 1st half of the season, whereas Arsenal have been rather underwhelming - yet they sit only 4 points behind, are (maybe) about to sign a much-needed strike...

Re: We're ManchesteROFL United, we do what we want

Harry Maguire earns himself a new contract He's been playing well under Amorin tbf. It's only an extension, so nothing mental They re-sign players like him and Amad in the window to make it look like they did something when we fail to get anyone in. There will be loads of bullshit about swap deals ...

Re: Weekend Football

Shame about the no replay rule change. Tamworth deserved a big replay by getting to 90 minutes at 0-0 Youd presume the mentality of clubs would shift if replays still existed, I.e. Werner would have been subbed off a long time before if it was still the case They were always going to win in ET, tal...

Re: Weekend Football

Arteta not buying a striker in 3 seasons thinking Havertz is the answer is ludicrous. Mind-bogglingly stupid is what it is, Another season's potential trophies chucked away by the insane lack of anyone half-resembling a striker. Chris Wood would have scored a hat-trick for them today. Isn’t the ide...

Re: Next manager

It will have to be Hunt as no manager in their right mind is going to join a club in our situation. You think? Difficult to really “lose out” from a manager’s perspective. You can either do well, build a better reputation and move on (like Selles) or struggle but with the excuse of the current cond...
