Thought he had been demoted from the Prem?

At the time I thought nothing of it. Thought he had misjudged where the line was. Watching the replay, he stopped Simms having an opportunity to score. A difficult position to score from, but an opportunity nevertheless.

Only if they can start to unpick a low block which most teams will use against them. We will always be susceptible to defeats where teams defend and have quality, very quick attackers.

Does not compute? Explain.

Because there is a drop off in quality if we rested players. When you play loads of games in a short time on heavy grounds, players need a break. Ipswich were watering a sodden pitch because they knew they had quality on the bench that we did not. Teams make subs to rest players. Bidders for...

Be very surprised if you don't beat Stoke. They will defend as a default setting and hope Thomas can bang one in.

Four of our top five scorers missing from our starting eleven and a full back with very few minutes having to play as a winger. The header he missed would probably have been scored by any of those missing four. He was also at fault for your first goal. Injuries and sickness lost us the game as...

Good players beat the offside trap, especially against tiring backs who are chasing a game and have had no opportunity to rest since the last international break. Most Championship forwards get caught out quite often with our high line.

The only time it comes back to bite us is when you play a team that can't easily break a low block like Ipswich and have players with pace to burn in their starting line up and on the bench. If we had scored first, think it would have been a different game. They rarely lose when they score first.

Wasn't £4.5 million quoted by Olympiacos? Another Doug, we will pay you £1 million if we get promoted like he did with EMC definitely and Haji (possibly).

I think when you have four of your five top scorers out of your starting 11 and play a full back as a winger from the start, then the squad is too thin. Also, we have been unable to rest players. Simms looked tired yesterday and we needed mobility against Kipre. Three players, Kitch, Torp and...

You are cherry picking. We had loads of shots that went close, were saved brilliantly or blocked. Not one rebound fell for us like their third did. You push forward, they are going to have that space. We created chances in a packed penalty area.

He will say the player didn't hear the whistle because of crowd noise, even though Hirst stopped and then shot at goal. Shit slaphead refs R Us.

I assume there is a ref assessor and the clubs put in a report.

Both Lamps and Grimes said that was not a 3-0 and they are right. If you chase a game and don't score, always a chance of breakaways. Lots of our best players missing or not fit and the rest looking shagged out. We were the best team in the first half overall. KKH out of position missed a...
