  1. Looking a decent shout that one, they were 10th at xmas but level on pts with Bournemouth who were 12th
  2. Talk online tonight is the club will offer him a new deal this summer, only signed a new deal last year. Deserves one aswell, bar the one mistake he has been superb when called on this year. Didn't expect anything like these performances from him

    Summer Draft

    When the final squads are announced i will start You have to pick 9 players from different nations, 2 more are free picks and you can double up on players from 2 nations, but no more than 2 from any So if you have picked from England,France,Germany,Holland,Spain, Brazil,Argentina,Colombia,Mexico. you can then pick a additional player from 1 player from 2 of of them countries to fill out the squads. You must pick at least from at least 4 teams from the copa or Euros no picking. So no picking 2 Brazilians,2 Argentians and the rest from the Euros. Example below Player X Argentina Player X Brazil Player X Colombia Player X USA Player X England Player X Germany Player X Spain Player X France Player X Holland Player X Argentina x2 Player X Brazil x2 If that makes sense
  4. Brilliant songwriter I have seen the morning burning golden on the mountain in the skiesAching with the feeling of the freedom of an eagle when she fliesTurning on the world the way she smiled upon my soul as I lay dyingHealing as the colors in the sunshine and the shadows of her eyesWaking in the morning to the feeling of her fingers on my skinWiping out the traces of the people and the places that I've beenTeaching me that yesterday was something that I never thought of tryingTalking of tomorrow and the money, love, and time we had to spendLoving her was easier than anything I'll ever do againComing close together with a feeling that I've never known before in my timeShe ain't ashamed to be a woman nor afraid to be a friendI don't know the answer to the easy way she opened every door in my mindBut dreaming was as easy as believing it was never gonna endAnd loving her was easier than anything I'll ever do again
  5. Sweet soul music could have filled up the letters L,S,D,W,O and J Lou,Sam,Dave.Wilson,Otis,James Also what a great song Atlantic/Fame studio at its best
  6. Henry Waugh Renny-Tailyour first for the Royal Engineers vs Old Etonians was a belter You had to be there to see it they say. Rumour has it a poster on here was a young lad at the time and saw it in the flesh
  7. Ipswich at home in the cup replay in 92 was the first competitive game i went to 3-2 win AET Anyway I always like John Wark so welcome back to Ipswich
  8. Rome is superb Shame it was so expensive to make or we might have seen more
  9. As good as he's been when I've seen him at Hull I don't think he ever makes it here. Deserves s chance in preseason but I don't think he has the pace,strength or workrate for a top team. He'll have a good career either way
  10. They'd get overrun these days. I'd love to see a team of the supposed 00s hardmen,Matterazi,Keane,Ramos and Pepe types playing a team of hardmen from the 60-80s with a ref from that time frame
  11. @Bjornebye @Elite @Allan @lifetime fan @Babb'sBurstNad @Megadrive Man @No2 @aRdja @Sugar Ape @TheHowieLama @sir roger @3 Stacks @TD_LFC Anyone interested in a post season draft. Not had one in a long time Thinking a combined Euros and Copa America draft Thinking 1 Player from a nation for 9 picks, and you can have 2 picks from 2 nations Must have at least 4 from each Copa America and Euros Only players in the final squads, so no start until the final squads are announced
  12. Like their weaker foot often not even much use for standing on these days. Its funny ive been listening to The Mixer by Michael Cox talking about the tactical changes during the premier league era. its worth a listen if you have a audible account and if anyone doesn't they are doing a 3 months for 99p deal at the moment so you'd get 3 audio books for 99p. Anyway, theres a few ex players and coaches that are quoted on there, and i heard recently talking about the same that todays football are more athletes than footballers of the past. Its more about fitness,strength and pace especially in the premier league than being a good footballer. I personally agree with this, you rarely see older type of players that lacked pace but could read a game. As a TV spectacle its probably better but as a game its lost something. I was watching Maradona warm up for the uefa-cup semi-final 1989 and its something else. Just a genius at work, Back when skills were a tool to beat a man, today you see far to much skills for the sake of skills, or a winger beat a man, then cut back inside to beat them again or run into trouble. Its a shame that you couldn't move these footballers onto todays pitches and watch what they would have produced. Its the same with protecting players, its gone from a need to over the top bollocks. The more they fuck with the game and the rules the worse they make it
  13. First step of the new regulator City cry to the government and they get involved and it all gets swept away. Premier league will be happy and claim the last 10 years have all been above board
  14. It looked like a bad mix of manager and some stats standings. Once Edwards took over from Comolli we looked to be doing a far better job at Reading the stats. Comolli was intrigued by stats but didn't know how to use them correctly or have enough sway to override the manager
  15. It's funny how VAR was in use for the CL game with Bayern and Madrid buy having good officials meant you never really noticed. VAR is badly used over here, its not perfect either but I'd like to see it used with competent refs. For a league that thinks itself a world wide league with the best talents not headhunting tbe best refs world wide is nonsense
  16. I don't think he's quick enough for what we want or need. Neither does he have the output to be worth the fee. 37 games(2732 minutes)7 goals and 4 assists. 0 goals 1 assist in last 11 games.
  17. About £105 if you want one of these About £1.50 when i bought on of these of a steet seller in Goa about 10 years back and i probably got ripped off for not haggling
  18. We had interest in Thuram, we went with Szoboszlai/Gravenberch instead, the other was Manu Kone. Not watched either this year though.
  19. Swapping Darwin for a 36 year old Lewandowski that is well on the way out would be stupid I did see some links to de Jong but likely just shit as no real source
