People who complain about being "bullied into silence" are usually bullies themselves who want the freedom to antagonise without resistance. Bad luck Fatty, wrong forum. Now f*** off.

It’s obvious I’m not advocating a march on the People's Pension Megadome with flaming torches and pitchforks. I was, and still am to some degree, an angry and emotional football fan. And I haven’t felt greatly pacified by the vocal minority and their collective shrug of 'shit happens'. If MOR...

Has to be too early to predict, surely? All depends on the success of the surgery, response to rehabilitation and recovery. I suppose there are average times based on previous cases but as I said earlier, it’s impossible to be accurate because every injury is unique, as is the player.

I was listening to a Chelsea fan podcast last week when they were going through the squad ( it was quite a long podcast!). They basically have a lot of defenders and need to get rid of a few. The feeling was that Colwill had never delivered for Chelsea since returning from Brighton. One said...

Every case is different and, as a very wise doctor/runner once said “Every athlete is an experiment of one.”

What do you mean, what am I going to do about it? There’s nothing I can do about except express my anger and my opinion. And where’s a good place to do that? I know, how about a football forum, in a thread discussing that very topic? For heaven’s sake. That’s what we’re all here for surely? To...

If you think it’s a RUBBISH tackle that’s put our new playmaker in hospital needing surgery, putting him out of action for months, than you should be furious like most people. To regard it as just a bit “annoying” means you’re absolutely not reading the room on this one. Understand the anger or...

It wasn’t a tackle at all unless you have a different definition. He wanted to ‘put one on him’ pure and simple. The smile and wink put the tin lid on it for me. Again, I just don’t get the apologist approach from some people. It was a brutal challenge and the idea of ‘the enforcer’ a la Vinnie...

Sompting? Didn’t George Harrison write a song about that place?

Funnily enough I was going to, as it’s en route to LHR where I’ll be picking someone up. The timing was perfect. But not now. Withholding my £20 isn’t going to break them but it’s at least something I can do make my feelings known. I’m going to head for Reading instead.

Not during licensing hours, no.

Then behave like one.

There was absolutely a reason to target him. In a team full of reserves, O’Riley was the sparkly multi-million pound new boy, the one player highlighted as above nearly all the rest, and the guy most likely to destroy Crawley’s game plan. And most of all, exactly the sort of pretty-boy...

That’s what I said — until I was dragged into the Avios vortex.

Loosen your belt a notch and have a nice lie down. After what we witnessed last night it should be very obvious to you why some posts have this tone, especially with the vacuous contributions from your fellow townsfolk. FWIW, my wife grew up in Crawley and I still think she’s a cracker despite...

Simple question: who will be happier, Albion fans or Wolves fans? Could have been much worse. I read something recently that Chelsea have had an incredible run of lucky/home ties in the domestic cups. Tonight they were drawn at home to Barrow!!

8I’m And you’re one of the worst offenders. You just refuse to admit that it was a shocking incident. Why? No idea. Theatrical diving for penalties is also 'part of football' but that doesn’t make it in the least bit acceptable. Some things deserve to be called out, and a few people, notably...

Sigh. Those things are not in the least bit irrelevant. It’s exactly why he was targeted — to make sure this flash new boy didn’t get ideas above his station. It’s as clear as day to me that Williams was told, or at least encouraged, by his gaffer to give Matt a 'warm welcome' to the game. It...

Get this thick troll off our website.

Some of the complacency from a few Albion fans is really mystifying. I really don’t understand the pusillanimous 'let’s not make a fuss, these things happen in sport' attitude. This wasn’t a 'coming together'. It was an outright assault on a key player we’ve spent months negotiating with, 6 or 7...
