ETA: @Matt smith; I'm sorry, you probably don't deserve singling out, but that post made me laugh.

Cough politely, stand up and say, 'well, this was nice....' He'll probably take the hint.

The answer to your question is literally there in the post you quoted.

We were poor, but had loads of chances.

We didn't. We drew. We lost the penalty shoot out.

Always think it's a bit unfair to judge players on assists; what about all those laid on a plate that the forward fluffs?

When people say he's had a good game, it's exactly for the reasons you've stated above. He's inconsistent, like Wright is, has poor anticipation and basic technique, but he can do all the things you list. He's a good Championship striker, just not the best one at the club.

Free kick routine straight from the training ground.

Is this the first thread to namecheck Dot Cotton, John of Gaunt and Sean Maguire in its first two pages, does anyone know?

Does excellent work with The Exploding Heads.

The Summer of Allen sounds extremely portentous.

There's no chance he's not motivated. I get frustrated by the accusations of lack of application or that he's uninterested. His style is languid and he's (despite his size) a stealth striker, not a blood and thunder one, but he's clearly committed to the cause.

That's Wright, though; he's frequently unplayable or looks like he's never played before. There's not a huge amount of middle ground, either. Tbh, I expect him to be the same in the Premier League; I don't expect him to be out of his depth, but he'll have his poor spells. The difference is...

Give me strength.

It's funny how things turn out, isn't it. Back then, I wasn't sure we wouldn't exist at all by this point.

There was no jeopardy for them in the game; all they've got now is bloody-mindedness. I mean fair play to them, but it's not a standard position they're in. And fucking hell, they were so dull. Loud, but dull.

I like the one called 'Brum stop dogs'. I realise this response is no longer topical.
