To come through three successive away games unbeaten v Reading, Sheff Wed and Burnley is some achievement. All these clubs will be top 8 and were determined to take our record away but we did a job on all of them. It is a tribute to the spirit within the squad and the superb way that CH has set...
Ok...let me be the first to rise to the bait.
Rhodes ( cost £8m....cost to buy £10-11m ) Austin ( QPR want £15m ) Murphy ( after last season, his stock has risen, so £7-8m )....so just the £20m min to buy two of the three plus significant wages.
The sale of the above mentioned BHA players (...
Hughton is disappointed some of the draws haven't been converted into wins, so lets examine.
1) Deserved wins. Forest, Ipswich, Hull, Rotherham, Bristol City, MK Dons.
2) Deserved draws. Huddersfield, Reading, Sheff Wed, Preston.
3) Drawn games..should have won...Wolves, Bolton, Cardiff ( - 6...
100 days into the new league season today and we are still unbeaten. In anybody's book, that is pretty damn impressive. On September 29th, Portsmouth lost at home to Exeter City and left us as the only undefeated team. 47 days further on and we are still there to be shot at.
We know we have at...
Is the correct answer.
We seem to have bred a generation of people who spend their whole lives seeking out different agendas. Unable to grasp the balance required for multi-culturalism to work and devoid of any appreciation of the importance of competition in life, they have infiltrated the...
Quite.
Its no good Muslims burying their heads in the sand and saying these people do not represent them. They are the radical arm of a religion that shows an alarming intolerance to other beliefs. They have to be pursued and destroyed, for years and years. They have to be treated like others...
Am struggling to get my head round this comment.
At times this season, we have played some of the best football I have seen us play for years. High tempo, slick passing and good movement. The first half at Fulham was bordering on brilliant. We battered Cardiff, with prolonged spells of superb...
Always try and watch Remembrance Sunday at the Cenotaph and observe 11.00 on the 11th of November. Much to my chagrin I missed it yesterday, getting involved in something at work and missing the time. ( The first time for a long time ) I have stopped my car at the roadside in the past and stood...
Its no surprise that younger journalists are making grammatical errors, as our language changes and handwritten words are fast becoming a thing of the past. Its only really the older generation now still writing letters. The whole construction of grammar is by-passing the younger generations, as...
The whole feature of a football crowd is its fluidity of movement. Much more so these days, with advanced ticketing and all seaters. Gone are the days of three hour queues snaking around grounds and fans packed shoulder to shoulder, heaving and swaying masses of humanity, carrying no hope of a...
Not for me.
I guess I'm just a bah humbug type of bloke but that incessant sickly saccharine smile just leaves me feeling a bit uneasy. Surely no one can be that cheerful, that happy, all the time? I prefer the spontaneous, face-lighting type of smile to her permanent one.
I didn't directly call him a spiv or criminal. It was a general comment.
The players really responded to the change yesterday and the look on his face told everything. The big money in the game will continue to attract the less desirable elements of society, who only have self-interest at heart.

Thought Robinson was good value in his post match interview. Proper rant at the ref (he'll get fined for it), lots of good words about us and the remembrance in particular but he thought they didn't deserve to lose (they did, he was wrong on that point)
Totally...
Another British manager bites the dust, to make way for another foreign coach. The game is going to end up dominated by foreign owners, foreign coaches and a helluva lot of moderate foreign players.
Chris Powell has just been very poorly treated at Huddersfield, where he's been replaced by a...
None of us are but some of us have it thrust upon us without warning. One day you are fine, next you discover that you have a life threatening illness. Take a deep breath and read it. It will help. Your friend needs support. Little things help. A quiet word of encouragement, an article or book...
Yes...on doctored pitches to suit Anderson and Broad. Put this side on a good pitch and we get murdered ( e.g two Tests v the Aussies ) If we had played on five good pitches this summer we would have lost the series comfortably
