Just musing on the money spent on MOTD in salaries, studio space etc and wondering if it would be better spent on more actual football and after match interviews. Cut out the studio old boys club altogether. Just a thought.
Loving this! Could anything be more NSC than discussing the merits of Banoffee pie? I don’t even know what it is but am in bits laughing about this thread. Yes I have had too much too drink!
He came to us because the pathway at Chelsea was blocked to him, I think. That Spanish bloke and Reece James ahead of him. That’s not the case here right now. He is a valued squad player and getting games after he has had some bad injuries which he is coming back from. Who is ahead of him here...
Yes but come on, Chris came in about Christmas time when we were looking at relegation and he kept us up. Think Nathan Jones had a couple of games over Christmas but Chris basically kept us up so job done. It probably wasn't all of us calling for him to go but I was tearing my hair out!
Don’t think we have much choice in the matter. If players do not turn up for International duty the home FA can have the player stopped from playing following league games I believe to try to stop pressure from clubs trying to stop players going to International games.
It’s very difficult in the written word for which I have always maintained to others and have obviously fallen short in my own efforts! Another fail. :(
Has any other team got 12 different goalscorers at this stage of the season? I think that’s right and it seems to me to be an eminently sensible approach for which presumably means the coach can take some credit.
So you are looking for someone who is 82% white and 18% other? Good luck with that. Or it could be someone who gets the gig on ability. That could be good.
Well whatever next? If the Archbishop of Canterbury resigns for not addressing child abuse in the Anglican Church where does that leave the Pope? Should he go as well after the catalogue of abuse against children in the Roman Catholic Church? Asking for a friend.
Dion Dublin wouldn’t be a bad shout. Used to working in TV so knows the mechanics. Never managed a club and talks bollox quite a lot. A bit like Lineker in that way but the added advantage of being black. What could go wrong?
I seem to remember that all of us were calling for Hyppia to go but TB stuck by him for an embarrassingly long time. Eventually I think Sami walked out, not sacked, and Chris came in to save the club from relegation. That’s how I remember it anyway.
We are all different though aren’t we? If I had made enough money at 49 to never need to work again I am pretty sure I would think I had it made and would just do whatever interested me. It would have to be a very attractive proposition, something I couldn’t resist, to throw my hat in the ring...
Not a stato but heard the commentator say that Brighton have never lost when conceding first! I think he said we are the only team to achieve that this season. So that record still stands!
