You also said that you would alter from this stance if Burton lost to Southend and Walsall and we beat Fleetwood. That scenario is certainly not looking out of the question now.
Cracking finish at Old Trafford in 89. We've had a lot more 'shocking' top flight strikers than Bannister.
Gayle, Harford, Lightbourne, Jackson, Withey, Bamber, Brazil, Culpin, Livingstone, Zuniga and Drinkell to name a few since 1983.
Would you change yours if we beat Fleetwood and Burton lose their next two and the gap became 8 with 14 games each to play? That scenario would mean Burton's immediate place in the top two would be at risk and would suddenly be under a bit of pressure after two straight defeats. We'd have back...
I can see this happening with Burton too. They don't score enough goals and rely on a well-organised back line. Could they cope if they suddenly had a glut of defensive injuries like we've just come through?
We've changed our home kit every single season since 1996 (barring the 13/14 - 14/15 one where they couldn't be arsed to put it on sale until halfway through the first season) so extremely unlikely that we will ever have a 2 year home kit again. Still, on the plus side at least we will get rid...
All sky blue for me. Despite the incredible memories the FA cup kit is my least favourite of all.
Given that next season is the 50th anniversary of the promotion to top flight it will be another 60s retro number for our home kit.
Hope so, we're the sky blues after all.
For the love of god, no. Hasn't he started 3 games, and we've lost all 3 of them? After only losing 1 in 17 prior to that. Lock him in the changing room as far as I'm concerned.
I think the JSB membership is excellent, as is the match day zone.
One thing I wish the club would do though is subsidise merchandise for JSBs like they used to. It cost me £126 to get two kits for my daughters which is excessive to say the least. Many parents wouldn't/couldn't pay that sort...
Interesting thread. I think its been a cumulative effect of a number of things over the last two months;
The silly goals v Doncaster, the injury to Turner and the last kick of the game goal v Oldham, the Sheffield United injustice....
But what really did it for me was when Phillips made that...
Maybe time for some old skool big man/little man action.
Hopefully Arma and Henderson can become the new Gibson/Regis, Huckerby/Dubline, Keane/Roussel. If so, promotion guaranteed. PUSB.
On the basis of his interview today about the new CBs I think Mowbray will go;
RCC
Ricketts, Stephens, Cargill, Stokes
Fleck, Rose
JOB, Cole, Murphy
Armstrong
