It is a justifiable standpoint though as change does not automatically mean things get better. Whoever the 3 relegated clubs end up being, the likelihood is that all will make managerial changes sometime in the season, just like last season, where they all actually made multiple changes...

Is that definite? I thought the rule only applied to players that had gone through a club's academy? Lati was not a youth player at Swansea but joined them from Man City's youth set up. I thought that no fee applied, for the same reason we received nothing for Gunnarsson when he left for Cardiff...

You mean only 1 chance on target! That doesn't alter the fact that Simms, Eccles, Bassette and Wright had relatively easy chances to score but fluffed them. In isolation yesterday's performance wasn't too bad, and I think a draw would have been a fair outcome. However on the back of another...

They are not there taking in the applause, but rather to thank the fans for their support. If they had just pissed off down the tunnel after the game there would have been a much bigger furore.

Yes, but its not as simple as that. Someone who has been a pampered Academy player at a PL club, who then gets released downwards doesn't necessarily have the same motivation as a player from the lower leagues that has been released at a younger age. Given League 1 and League 2 teams regularly...

.... and whose teams regularly get turned over by League 1 and League 2 teams in the EFL Trophy!!

Ponticelli?

Kevin Pessimism ....... fat goalkeeper who played for Sheffield Wednesday :)

I've also been thinking that our slow build up play is causing us problems, and while I don't want us to go all out long ball I don't like relying on our defenders to control the ball at the back against nearly every team that these days presses, particularly given by definition defenders are...

If MR was to leave, Buckingham rightly or wrongly would be viewed by most of our support as a disappointing appointment. He has done a decent job at Oxford and they have made a decent start, but this is just a moment in time and not indicative that he would do a good job for us in the long...

Not seen it back since the goal was scored but even after their player beat Eccles it wasn't a situation that should have automatically led to a certain goal, certainly not if we had been in that situation! I was disappointed our last covering defender didn't slide in to try and at least put off...

Having Wright, Simms, Asante and Bassette in the squad it makes sense playing 2 of them up front together, with the option of bringing on the other 2 against tiring defenders. This 2 week break gives MR the opportunity to change things round.

Hopefully the upcoming break will allow him to catch up to speed and come back as the player of last season. That's both today's game and the Spurs one where he lost possession in injury time, allowing the opposition to break and score.

Wasn't Otis was one of the first GMK mainstays to come over to SBT? Not connected but another poster I remember was Japandy who unwisely decided to bring his Christian faith into a discussion, which thereafter was used as a stick to beat him with. The discussions were often not for the faint...

Wheres Matt Smith?

up da villa :ROFLMAO:

It was a completely different beast under Neville and Smiles, but the half a dozen or so regular posters left at the end of GMK were very pro SISU. They all were going to Northampton and nailed their colours to the SISU mast. Without wanting to re-engage arguments from all our yesterdays, and...

GMK was great until Knowl took over, but by the end it was a bag of wank dominated by a pro SISU clique. I seem to remember SBJon being a particularly obnoxious poster.

Most management changes end in failure, hence the term 'the managerial merry go round', which we previously endured in the Reid/ Adams/ Dowie/ Coleman/ Bothroyd/ Thorn days. Yes there is an occasional bounce to start with, but it is very rarely sustained. If we get rid of MR it would be a...

He was a dick 🤫
