Tylluan Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 20 minutes ago, Alan Finney said: I wouldn't know but I'd love to read it, don't suppose you have a link do you? At the time Pulis was coming in I stuck up for him. I'm the past I used to help out on FA coaching courses, being the 'canon fodder' to be coached in practical sessions etc, and the FA regularly brought Pulis in to do guest sessions. The ones that I'd taken part in were a world away from his Stoke team and almost continental in there application of tactical positioning and awareness in regard to pass and movement. I championed him saying his Stoke team was just one side to him and that if we got the Pulis I'd seen then we'd have made a good choice. Unfortunately the only side we got was a manager who didn't fancy it from day one and has since said that he should never have taken the job. But I still coach some of the stuff I learned in those sessions and it still works. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bellsview Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 If there’s one crumb of comfort I’ll try to take from tonight’s result is that it will be even nicer to hopefully see them bastards lose at Wembley!

Skamp Posted May 17 Author Share Posted May 17 Problem being that the unsuccessful 3 teams will probably dominate again next season.

Bob Petrie Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 Pitch invasions have become standard this year. Won the league? Have a pitch invasion. Finished 2nd? Have a pitch invasion. Play-offs? Have a pitch invasion. Assuming the EFL are firing out “failure to control fans” fines to all clubs. It would be unfair if it was just us, wouldn’t it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradowl Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 (edited) I think some Bolton fans have underestimated Oxford, beating Plymouth 4-0 in EFL trophy final last season made em feel like they only had turn up today, some were saying they'll do an Ipswich and will be in premier league in 12 months.

Got the impression Bolton thought they were home and dry after beating Barnsley in the semi's, just goes to show you just can't take anything for granted. Oxford were just so good all over the pitch and Bolton just looked clueless.

He's got to turn to their academy as he hasn't got a pot to piss in, transfer wise, and he's only got the wages of the leaving players to use to entice a player or two in. Trouble is anyone standing out will be immediately sold to keep balancing the Macquarie loans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrolMong Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 Arsenal kicking themselves over that disaster at Christmas when they lost to Fulham and West Ham, as well as the late season defeat at home to Villa. City, relentless, as always, will take some stopping next year even after the squad trim. I am actually a little sad to see Klopp go, I do like him, and Liverpool will fall like a stone, which I will also find funny. Chelsea appeared to have turned a corner. I think we will soon see that Ange is not great, and Ten Haag is gone after the cup final. The bottom three have been appalling this season, Luton, with a smallest resources had a go, but Burnley and the pigs have been an embarrassment. As has been alluded to, the pigs are in right mess financially, the only way they generate cash is selling players, and they’ve got a 50 million wage bill to halve by the end of July.

I know you mentioned they were after Johansson the other day from Rotherham with him eventually going off to Stoke. Then there was a story in The Stir (admittedly) saying they were linked with Patterson the Sunderland keeper. I'd like to think that next season could be the start of the scales starting to tip the other way and that'll be dependant on their finances.

What pigs will do is put it out that they have put this bid in and that bid in for players that they haven't got a prayer of signing just to make out to fans that they are showing some ambition. They did same lass summer, all I heard from them at work was that they had bid £20m for this player, £15m for that player. Most of them fall for it too. 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
