If side A (lets call them Palace) were to let side B score (lets call them Brighton) in the 1st (or any) minute. Why should and would Brighton then let Palace score? Brighton have a 1-0 lead (and 3 points) to protect.
I think this would mean the end to Craig Levein's 4-6-0 formation.
A 0-0 and both sides get no points. Stops a side from parking the bus and if there are no goals with 15 mins or so to go before the end, both sides may as well go for it.
Me to, may I recommend if you haven't seen it "Beyond the Cosmos" on Discovery (I think, if not one of the 52x numbers on Sky). Most programmes on this subject I tend to find a bit dry (too many equations that us mere mortals can't understand) and very complicated, this tends to try and make a...
We've got to go for it. So much could change between now and the beginning of next season even i.e Gus leaves
Norwich and Swansea have shown the way too.
Yep, I was thinking of Alan Ball, how did he ever continue to get a gig somewhere.
Someone else not listed that comes to my mind is Iain Dowie, he seems to have bounced around a few clubs and very soon their league position has plummetted.
In a similar vein I heard that Wolves latest interest...
The bloke to the right of me always seems to have been drinking heavily before he gets to a game at weekends, but never seems to go to the midweek games. The seat to the left of me seems to be shared, but one of the blokes that uses it, says "Unload him" about 15 times a game when he comes. I...
If that all happens we will probably go up automatically.
Realistically, 75 points I think will be more than enough for the play-offs. 17 more points, maybe less if we don't lose any 6 pointers to other play off rivals.
No, it has got nothing to do with that. The steward counted 30 of us onto the platform we still had to wait a good 5/10 minutes for the train to arrive (and we were the last 30 people to get on the train) while others were queuing and were not allowed on the platform.
It is twice now I have...
Have you been inside them? V Millwall and Cardiff I got the first one back and there was loads of space for people to stand in the aisles (as you would do on any London commuter train, also 50%+ probably get off at the first stop 5 mins down the road in Lewes, so slight overcrowding should be...
Hi,
I have got the first train back from Falmer to Lewes on the last two midweek games and I am shocked at how few people the "attendants" allow to get on these trains. There is loads of space for more people to get on the first train.
Quite often to me the train seems less crowded than it...
Speaking of the Dick Knight one, as per the last update.
Why is it so rarely at the Amex?
I think it is fantastic and I reckon I have seen it twice maybe 3 times???
Gus never seems to sub Barnes, that just seems to show how much Gus rates him and yet again Gus calls it right as Ash gets the equaliser and then sets up the second goal.
Last season up top we had Barnes and Murray, lets compare the two. Murray got 25 goals last season, Ash 20 goals. Murray...
He was really good last night. He really speaks his mind and offers good tactical insights about what a team/player should do and is not afraid to say if he thinks a player is sh1t or not (he didn't rate Milan's left back did he!) unlike a Ray Wilkins or a Jamie Redknapp whom just arselicks the...
When you read that it just shows how big our squad is now. There are players there that you have listed that were playing first team football a few months ago that were not even in the match day squad on Saturday for one reason or another....Vincelot, Harley, JFC, Spaz, Painter, Dicker, Hoskins...
Agree totally. I always think Ronaldo's default position is to look for the dive, wheras Messi's is to stay on his feet, if you catch my drift.
A classic example is Messi's second goal v Madrid in the away leg in last season Champions League, I am certain Ronaldo would have attempted to dive...
I was thinking of a few other players too whom were major players up until recently whom aren't getting in the game day action any more.
Can Sparrow not get a sniff after his red card v Leicester, he was playing really well up to then and how is Gary Dicker's injury coming along?
Is Gary our...
