Unfortunately I can't join in the fun this afternoon folks. Granddaughter's birthday party to attend! I hope Ian will be able to undertake the commentary for those without access.
Excellent stuff, especially as I have 300 quid on us this afternoon...I hope I won't be disappointed. In other news Palace are 4 down to blunderland and the bin dippers being pumped at hull
Problem with Saville is he isn't a good attacking every saturday player, he's just a good player in a side that just stubbornly defends. Should've got rid. We wneed players with a bit of positivity to do well in the league.
Useless b.astards..we all got carried away beating the Liverpool under 12 s but we arent where we are in the table by coincidence. We're fcking @#$%&, lets not dress it up. The odd win against 10 man Barnsley or a cup where teams can't be bothered showing up doesn't detract from how abysmal we are.
Been following this 'script' for over 45 years now and not much changes!
I can see us beating Newcastle and then losing to an injury time tap-in to Wigan......then beating Chelsea! .......before losing to Millwall in the quarter finals!
We made the 5th round of the FA cup , lie 17th in the championship and get comments on the mix such as these
For me this season is now about making the top 8/10, keeping faith with the youngsters and putting together the nucleus of a side and squad, augmented with more quality in the summer, that can make a serious challenge for top 2 next season." states north norfolk wolf who most weeks is near suicide with despair at how woeful we are
"Totally agree mate. I have long been saying that our target for this season is to finish with the sort of form that would make us promotion hopefuls next time.
Then as you rightly say if we can add two or three quality players in the summer, we should be a match for any other championship team." cries astral
"Let the good times roll". screams the north west wanderer
Only place we will be rolling is league one if we dont shape up.. we need a decent keeper, Ikeme is garbage and has been for some time. A whole new defence, central midfielders and at least one striker to misplace the wreck that dicko or whould I say "dozy dicko" has now become post injury. Other than that we're ready to go presuming we play the Liverpool stiffs that struggled to beat Plymouth.
