As Adam Virgo said on the radio yesterday...." Stockdale hasn't won any games for us this season but he has certainly lost us a few "

Can't disagree with that. Bruno and Bennett are just embarrassingly poor. Possibly, the worst fullbacks in the division. Calderon is past his sell-by date, like Greer, who has relied on experience to cover up his physical limitation ( knock-knees ) but is now showing his age. Major overhaul needed.

How was it a great last 10 minutes? It didn't change the result. All it offered was some scant consolation to those that see a narrow defeat as more acceptable than a larger deficit. It didn't hide the mistakes and inadequacies that had gifted a moderate opposition three points. All it did was...

Will we beat Cardiff ? has the corner been turned ? Is Blackpool/Forest games us back to normal ? Who will score next goal ? where are the next three points coming from? No. No. Yes. Agustien. Middsboro ( a )

I know where you are coming from. I fight a constant battle with two little men in my head. One is positive, one is negative. In recent years, the negative one has had a field day. Divorce, exclusion from children, bereavements, business failure and cancer. But through all of this, the positive...

As 70% of our history has been spent in the bottom two divisions, I would suggest that a decent run in the Championship is pretty good going. The trouble is that we now have a newer fanbase who do not have the depth of experience to put our present position into prospective. We are competing...

Two old boys sitting on a park bench and one says to the other.... " What was the name of that racing driver that got badly burnt? " " He was Hill wasn't he? " " Yes, spent weeks getting rebuilt " " What, the track or him? " Him, you idiot and anyway Hill died in a plane crash, didn't he?" "...

Talking of Colemanballs, has anything ever beaten these...... 1) " and Juanterena opens his legs and shows his class " 2) " and Donna Hartley held firm as the giant Russian came inside her " Priceless!

Well I've heard all the apologists for Saturdays result ( incl Greer and Bruno )...so thats alright then! Poor pitch and poor referee...so we can't perform. It'll all be better when we get back to our ' billiard table ' and can play proper football again. I'm sorry but I've seen Albion sides in...

No, you didn,t. Its just that the Board meant Hyypia and Buirke. ( who both went 2-3 weeks earlier than planned )

No. I,m afraid that window of opportunity has been slammed shut in our face by the appointment of Alex Neil at Norwich. He has made no secret of the fact that he wants EB to be a regular part of his matchday squad.

Yes. That replacement was clearly lined up some time ago. It would appear the win at Derby only delayed the inevitable. Lets hope that the new manager doesn't have a rejuvenating effect on them for Saturday.

Its a difficult one. As I said before, we have all been brainwashed into this state of absolute sensitivity...walking on eggshells etc. To those of us of a certain age, we have had to condition ourselves into not using certain words or phrases, that we were brought up on and used in everyday...

Isn't it sad that we have all been reduced to a state of perpetual nervousness by those that have hijacked our language for their own purposes. Political correctness is now a powerful industry, manufactured by individuals, who some years ago, saw an opportunity to create influence and financial...

Madness. The world has gone mad. We have allowed the inmates to take over the asylum. ( I shall still continue to use this expression and don't give a damn what anyone thinks )

Correct. ' Nitty-gritty '...." realities or basic facts of a matter " ( OED )....absolutely nothing wrong with using this expression....I use it regularly and will continue to do so.

A lot of people think that Wigan are too good to go down but there is something not right there. Surprisingly, there has been no improvement since MM went there. In fact, they have got worse. I think the problem maybe Malky ( Is his head not right? )

I agree. I think the wheels have come off at the Valley. They've been steadily sliding for a few weeks now.

This is the pressure of deciding to support one of the' big ' teams because they win a lot more than they lose. The expectancy and demand is to keep winning. The ' fan ' doesn't develop any maturity because all they are used to is winning. Its like the bully who always gets his own way until...

I' ve thought long and hard about this JFC debate and come to the inescapable conclusion that his development ceased at the point that....HE CHANGED HIS NAME! Plain Jake Caskey was fine...initials...JC ( say no more )....now he sounds like a cross between an American president and a fast food...
