I haven't read the full thread, so I don't know how much emphasis has been placed on Pickford's role in the shambolic defending. As a spectator I don't trust him, and I would think his erratic decision-making affects those playing in front of him. He doesn't always come out when you expect him...

After a full week of premature celebrations from Utd fans (working in Warrington at the time),I played that on a ghetto blaster just before leaving work on the day before the final. I got a very dirty look from the boss but just stared back and sang along. Great memories.

He doesn't seem to know when to turn a ball around the post rather than back into play. I know he did that with the header at Burnley but that seemed to have more to do with the angle of the header. Against Spurs he repeatedly parried the ball back into the box. He also seems to lose...

The consultations are designed to flush out potential issues which can then be addressed before finalising the proposals at planning application stage. I'm not sure why they are doing two rounds of consultation, because they will again be expected to demonstrate how issues identified at the...

I have already outed Trump.

Dave is the Trump of GoT - can't be wrong about anything. He even has an orange face for his avatar.

All these naysayers have got me wanting to bruise my wrists.

Yes, we did the damage and then benefitted from it.

Yes he could have forced the issue, but I have more respect for the fact he chose to honour his contract. I thought our approach was ethically dubious at the time, but appointing Sam was a moment of panic. I was prepared to give him the benefit of the doubt, but he just seems to be winging it...

I've already said I fancied Silva based on the style of football he was getting from the Watford team. I haven't seen Shaktar so I can't comment on Fonseca's credentials. I don't think you can just dismiss Silva because of his relegation with Hull or the subsequent tailing off at Watford, which...

I wish the apologists would stop trying to deflect criticism by bringing up the lack of other suitable candidates. As far as I am concerned that was more of a timing issue. The fact remains that Sam has failed to instil any kind of organisation or determination into the squad. I watched the...

I think the original bid was £600,000, but then he broke his leg and the doubts over his full recovery meant that we got him for just £60,000. What a steal.

Kite-flying could be a great spectacle, dog walking less so.

None of our line-ups look good to me :(
