Agree with this. Also, it's entirely possible for a manager to improve and it seems to me that Lampard went away and spent time learning his craft. Genuinely amazing how he's taken Coventry from an anaemic lower mid table team to utterly dominant...
This thread could honestly be shut down now. The current bottom three will be twenty points behind 17th place by the end of the season. Their only hope is Iraola leaving Bournemouth to go to Liverpool.
I just don't think Stokes is a very good captain. Inspiring player.
Botham and Flintoff come to mind. Ok as stand-in skippers but best left to their exploits on the pitch.
I think the plan was always Shoaib Bashir to come into the Adelaide test, however, he has had a horror show of a tour and became literally unselectable. So their hand was forced and Will Jacks has had to play a role he is spectacularly...
Again the bowling was nowhere near good enough.
They've got obsessed with pace and forgot you have to be skillful and accurate. Only Archer is good enough from what I can see.
Would love Hearts to win it. I felt a kinship with them when they were denied on the final day in 1986 and when we lost out on the double.
The SPL could badly do with Hearts or any other club outside the Old Firm, winning it.
I'm not...
Nope, the case is not about that lot.
But the fact you think it is a story about Liverpool football club indicates how your obsession with them has reached slightly worrying levels.
I hate that football club as much as anyone, but if you can't...
Going to hit over 40c tomorrow, hope England use their brain a bat a little slower early on, no demons in this pitch. With short square boundaries they can go bezerk in the final session with tiring bowlers, but they have to earn it.
Earliest memory was seeing a letter addressed to Everton Football Club on the sideboard. I asked my Dad what it was for, he told me he was asking the club to give me a trial. Being four years old at the time I believed him. Many years later I...
As a kid I actually had a red Hitachi kit. Only God knows why. Must have been some reason can't think why. Started supporting Everton when Gordon Lee was manager. Earliest tv was the Milk Cup final and reply. First game afterwards v Southampton...
Two that stand out, one was my old man telling me how he ended up at Wembley in 66 after doing his weekly "milk round" collection early Saturday morning and him gutted he didn't have a ticket but he thought sod it! So he took all the takings and...
I went to previous games but the earliest I can recall was the 66 cup final.
My Dad got me a ticket on the Friday and i vividly remember he came back from work and told me a 7 year old to get an early night as we were going to Wembley the next...
