I actually thought the football upto New year was ok and we should have had 10 more points on the board based on performances that not including the points deduction. The form of Harrison and McNeil fell off a cliff as did Calvert Lewin and we stopped playing intelligent football through the...
I remember him patting Martinez on the head. Martinez should have slugged him but he’s too much of a gent. I knew what he was from that moment. Karma police came calling tonight. He’s lorded it for years, came back to haunt him tonight love it.
I think it a hard season to quantify. Yes we had a terrible run after Christmas. A very mixed bag of performances. Pre Christmas it wasn’t just workrate the link between midfield and attack was much better and McNeil and Harrison were playing with much more confidence as was Calvert Lewin. I...
Scrappy win, will take that all day. Not enough of them this season. Defended well as a team. Special mentions to Branthwaite and Gueye. I thought Doucoure run out of gas and should have been replaced last 20. When we passed through the line I thought Forest were easy to bypass but we didn’t do...
That’s a very logical way of looking at it. Doucoure has scored some important goals this season but he isn’t a number 10. Likewise neither is Gomes, his ball retention is good and he has vision to pick a pass but he lacks mobility. Harrison would probably be most suited to the role but we...
I normally give them to people I know who can’t get a season ticket but I know they appreciate the gesture. If I see them before any games they alway buy me a pint or two.
I know Martinez had his critics and some w
here of his own making but one thing I will say is he had idea of how he wanted his team to play. Under him we had Barkley Stones and Lukaku all flourishing. If McCarthy could have stayed injury free and he wasn’t constantly having to buy from the...
Too many factors to mention but it has to come from the top. The club has been in steady decline for the last 30 years but in the last 10 the managerial and recruitment approach had been nothing short of diabolical. I think we are at a point were I don’t think anyone would have a definitive...
I agree with most of that. Harrison and Doucoure aren’t providing that quality in the final third where we need it. Good chances should be great chances. I was pulling my hair out at the positions Godfrey was finding himself in and the lack of quality from him was Stark. I would have given...
