Yes, but Gareth says nothing could be further from the truth and he’s not having this urban mythery perpetuated in the ‘media.’
I mean, this stuff really is HIGH drama.
Well, a choice between the two - it’s Albion all the way.
But like I say, to compete at the top and be the best, international competition really is where it’s at… it’s not a nationalistic crusade, but being a real, genuine winner… are you telling me, if you were Argentinian, you’d have chosen...
Clearly, really quite sad.
I’d have given everything to represent my country, with pride and with one eye of getting as many caps as possible… not some jingoistic nonsense, but being the best at my sport.
The fact that White got Edu to do his dirty work makes it even worse, frankly the...
Now, I’m not a huge fan of Gareth - a post modern anti Alan Bennet ‘nice’ none northern cliche of a PE teacher…
But I find this all rather odd.
To play for your country is a honour, so suck it up and play for the shirt.
To compound things you’ve got Gareth saying he’s not sure why ...
Ah; I was unsure on the exact season… I knew it wasn’t long after they ran rings around (our pub team) under Case prior to Hereford…
I specifically remember, during that 97/98 away fixture when we won, a shocking debut for Donnie from a local pub league GK - who was (shall we say) a bit on the...
The original (none single edit) version of All By Myself is sublime... ok - it owes much to classical music, but it's the perfect downer broken hearted song... vocally it's perfection and musically too... a wonderful and beautiful legacy.
Rest in peace Eric.
I tend to agree, and I agree that Roberto is spot on with his assertion that depth (as a result of last summer) is an issue. We're also WAY too reliant on a crop of older injury prone pros to fill the gaps and/or (in the case of Danny) lead the line... it's not going to cut it at the top as last...
Whilst I agree, he’s got a lot to learn - by definition he’s not destined for the top unless he shows a willingness to learn lessons and have a pragmatic plan b… right now, it’s pride before a fall - a pattern seemingly well established in his fledging coaching career.
Another thing which...
Yep, sadly - and I love him too… he’s charismatic, fun… a great bloke and a football fanatic AND he’s clearly not a bad coach… but he’s so tactically inflexible and the whole Jason Steele thing feels like some of stubborn refusal to accept facts.
I hope he can find a way… a way to become a...
I’m not so sure why so many are surprised… now, I don’t mean disappointed - of course we’re all gutted, as it’s the hope that kills you… but surprised?
We’re in wretched form, with two of our recent ‘big’ wins coming against a terrible injury ravaged Palace and Sheff (northern alliance) utd…...
Lol - I can't shake this random imagining of Potter's departure - office chair spinning, someone on the end of his desk phone "... pounds sterling.... hello... are you still there ? Graham...." His PA, in the style of a true 1970s cliché, bringing his skinny Mocha into his office... "Should be...
I find the unlucky with injuries narrative a bit hard to take - some of the losses have been fatigue based, (yes) partly our fixture list and depth are an issue… but we’re all aware of what the players have said about the intensity demanded in training, and the intensity of our system during...
I guess on reflection, what I’m really getting at is that although this one was/is tough to take, we’re not really (given our player losses to injury/transfers out) better than Fulham, nor is Roberto a better coach than Silva… as clear as day really.
So, getting all bent out of shape is borne...
And Luton wasn’t his finest moment either…
I agree, he’s been a superb coach for the most part… but I’m not in the Roberto is a genius camp either… he’s too inflexible.
