  1. Took me a couple of minutes to get over that too.
  2. It does look that way. I quite like it tbh.
  3. He is. I’m guessing that signing will be confirmed shortly.
  4. Newcastle? Unless you’re counting the Fairs Cup.
  5. MK, Wycombe and Pompey look decent prices. We’re too short to tempt me.
  6. Before the turn of the year, I preferred what I saw of Dennis to FDB. As the season wore on, FBD came into things more. There were a couple of games near the end of the season where he was a monster. One of them was MK away I think. He drives us forward with an energy and power that we often lack. Hopefully this season he can get a run of games and greater consistency into his play. As others have said, he should go on to play at a good level.
  7. I assume we’ll be all over their end. My mate’s company sponsors them, so we should be ok.
  8. Same. Most of my mates, work colleagues etc are L**ds and I hate them all for it.
  9. Some mouth-watering games to look forward to.
  10. I’m not sure he is but he appears to be able to attract and sign decent players, so I’d probably leave him in charge for a couple of months next season and see how he does. Rather than run the risk of another summer of wholesale changes.
  11. 0-0 at half time, I was happy. 1 down, are we tempted to try and get one, or try to keep it at 1-0? We’ve not been good, but I was happy with the job we were doing.
  12. Heading to the pub. It will be the first time I’ve watched them in the pub since Covid started.
  13. Overall I’d say he’s doing a great job. He’s put together a strong squad, given limitations placed upon us. Dean, Storey, Gregory, Johnson, Byers and other have proven to be great signings. He’s changed the mentality of the place, from top to bottom. We’ve shaken off the weak willed, roll over and die illness that set in whenever we went behind. We’re now going on to be stronger in games where we concede early. The players appear to care. We have a style to our play and we are pleasing to watch. We’re in the playoffs. Not everything has gone according to plan. It took a long time for the system to work but I think a lot of that was due to the amount of injuries. We’ve signed some bang-average players in Sow, Kamberi, Brown but I think they were a cheap gamble and largely squad fillers and it’s shown we’ve needed a big squad with injuries. His interviews are shit. We’ve failed to get to grips with shit-housing sides and we can’t defend set pieces to save our lives but on the whole, I’d say we’ve taken great strides in the right direction, which we’re seeing the results of, since the turn of the year.
  14. Have you seen Kamberi play? I’d love to be eating humble pie later but I suspect not. Im ok with that side. Paterson needs a better game.
  15. Interested to see FDB, Bannan and Luongo together. That could be a very powerful unit. We’ll miss Hunt but you can’t complain with Johnson and ML in your side at this level.
  16. We need to be at them from the off. Hit them like we did MK and don’t give them a chance to get into their game.
  17. It certainly is an odd line up. I still think we’ll have too much up top (or “up the front” as someone on radio Sheffield insists on saying) for them. Hopefully we won’t need to worry too much about the back 3
