Happy days. Let's hope he can last more than a couple of games this time. Possibly our most dangerous player when on top form.

In fact we've beaten more teams above us (4) than below us (3) if you don't count Saints on the opening day as everyone was equal

But were they above us when we played them?

A top player and Asian Hertiage as well
Would be a good buy never mind loan

What does his family heritage have to do with anything? I couldn't care if his family are gender fluid, A-sexual, Eskimos as long as he is a decent footballer.

Just seen the teamsheet and it's still a reasonable starting 11. Jimmy Dunne in but no sign of Lewis Richardson.

Are you able to post the team on here please Leisure, for those of us unable / too lazy to get it from Twitter.

I always enjoy talking football regardless of how we are doing as there is always something to talk about, be it potential transfers, squad changes, decisions in the game, or simply reliving the winning goal etc. The day I stop talking / playing / watching football will likely be the one after I die.

Pretty sure WHU's game in hand is v Liverpool. Yesterday was massive and as I hoped the fans played their part. I think we can stay up due to our experience, but we really need to address cm. To have no sub option is poor. We do have a sub option for CM. The option is to move Jeff inside and bring ...

Ben Mee could easily have cost us the game yesterday had it not been for a penalty save from Pope and VAR somehow missing a very clear handball. Let's not pretend he or the performance was wonderful. We were much better than we have been and got that little bit of luck that you need to help get out ...

Pope 9
Bards 8
Tarks 9

Taylor 8

McNeil 7
Jay Rod 8

Christ, if you think Maddison is bad then just wait until you have watched Williams and James on Wednesday.

Goobs

Very sad to hear this.

Used to go away with Colne Clarets to a lot of away games when we were younger and Alan was always really helpful and friendly.

Goobs

The fact that they do not feature often in the first team, does not make them valueless. Without a squad, one day we would not be able to field a team or train effectively. Exactly. People don't seem to realise we need a squad of 20-25 players and that you can only field a maximum of 14 a game ther...

I would rather go for a manager like Duff who is untried at this level, and therefore has unmeasurable potential, than a failed manager with Premier League experience. WE know how good the latter is whereas Duff has yet to reach his ceiling. He knows the club too. No-one had heard of Dyche and few ...

What I would like:

Pope
Bardsley Tarks Mee Taylor
Cork Westwood
JayRod Hendrick McNeil
Wood

Goobs

Sadly, seldom found anywhere on this forum. The slightest mention that the purse strings could be loosened brings a chorus of "we don't want to end up like Bolton". But we have spent money and when it hasn't worked (Gibson, Vydra etc) those that like a moan then complain we have wasted money and sh...

Goobs

I never understand this mind set that people have. They say Oh remember Orient 30 years ago! But where does that end? Can we talk about winning the league? Or the FA Cup? History is irrelevant. People are using the Orient game to highlight where we could easily end up if we overspend and it fails. ...

Goobs

Not doubting the witness at the game, however I would expect the goal keeper to be saying to the referee "I saved it, you got it wrong" or words to that effect. The apparent non plussed action of the keeper suggest sadly that the referee got the decision correct. At which point the ref would have q...

But you can't argue that the way we do things has brought us far more success than we could realistically have hoped for.

Oh I bet he can.

If We won the league, he'd complain about the style of football or that we didn't go undefeated.

Ferguson definitely ‘gradually stepped up levels’ going from Aberdeen to Man Utd.

The gap between the SpL and EpL (as they are named now) wasn't as big as it is now and United were awful whereas Aberdeen were winning European trophies when he took over at United so not that big a step up really.

If we don't get Bowen will it be a case of "Look at what you could have won " ?

What a load of bully.

I'd rather we stay in the black and out of the red rather than spunk money on him

Koiki to replace McNeil in the squad or on the left wing?

In the squad as a left sided player. Not trying to compare them or say he is close to being good enough just that he can play the same position and has been in and around the squad this year.

Goobs

I think there is a mini clear out on the way in summer regardless of where we are. I imagine the following will leave between now and next season regardless of division: Tarks McNeil Lennon Brady Vydra Wells Hart Gibson With the possible others Hendrick Pope That would leave us with a large rebuild ...

Goobs

He would be available for what the board would want to spend on a manager.. The Watford manager would be on my radar as well. Maybe not on the Boards though. I think you are wrong unless he gets them promoted and does well in league one and we are relegated before Dyche leaves. I could see Cowley a...

Goobs

Nixon saying Leeds have offered £3m to take Bowen on loan for remainder of the season and are willing to pay an additional £15m should they get promotion. He goes back to Hull if Leeds don't get promotion. At least Leeds are trying to be creative to be fair..... Can you imagine the comments on here...

He would be my one of my choices when Dyche is sacked or leaves.

What, based on a decent half season in league 2? Or simply the fact that he played for us for a long time?

Goobs

Great move for the lad and another fine example of just how far we have come as a club in the last 7-8 years. I'm sure that one of the naysayers will be along shortly to explain why this is a bad thing and how it shows that SD has lost the dressing room and that is why all the youngsters are leaving...

A agree the next 7 months are massive and might just give fans an insight as to what the plans are for the club.

I think you could use that sentence but change it to the next 15 days.

Goobs

So the longer they stay outside the Premiership the better value for money your ticket becomes?

Conor Gallagher has joined Swansea on loan. From what I know, we were trying to sign him permanently but Chelsea just wanted him out on loan.

We should have just offered £20m to get it done! Rigg out!

JR, Barnes and Wood all doubts but Vydra still won't get a game. I keep expecting a call from Dyche to see if I want a game. He'd be about 35 years too late though. Even then I'm sure he'd play me before Vydra.

Maybe this is why Richardson didn't play for the U23's the other day

Goobs

Tell you what Steve I always found Sturgeon to be incredibly irritating in the way of all cause seekers, you know the ones who just won't shut up and f*ck off, but now I think she has become slightly a parody of herself. I often wonder what the hell she would do if the Scots ever got independence.....

Done well to make a career then hasn't he Jack Cork? ******* fear for some of you lot when you do actually have to watch some **** players again. You get what you deserve. Thing is a lot of those moaning won't see the **** players when it happens again as they'll be amongst the thousands either boy...

I can Spijed. - It's not just about wages. Yes, they're well paid but still people with feelings, ambition and pride. It seems to me that Vydra is being treated appallingly by SD - why? I can't even guess - but being shoved on with 30 mins to go when the team is being flogged by a top side has the ...

Goobs

Interesting to see on Twitter someone questioning the team selection. Why were Brady and Vydra not playing? Who cares? Some need to have a day off. Haha Farrell out! How dare he pick U23's for an U23's match and then have the audacity to win as well? I would suspect that considering our current inj...

I think we'll finish above Norwich, Bournemouth, Villa and Brighton. The one that amuses me are Brighton who are getting loads of credit and people talking about them as thought they are a really good team and yet they are on the same points as us. The only difference is they are probably better to ...

Could be an interesting couple of weeks especially if we beat Leicester on Sunday and results go our way.

Oh well, that's another game that I won't be taking the kids on then. £40 for an FA Cup 4th round match against Norwich. Not for me.

I came past earlier on and the Motorcyclist was receiving treatment. It really didn't look good and the car / bike was a real mess.

You can debate what the more defensive set up is, I think. If you accept that any 4-5-1 we play is more 4-4-1-1 than 4-3-3, then the defensive strength comes from that line of four, and Hendrick does a better job defensively on the flank for me than McNeil (who has been caught out plenty of times o...

I suppose we went 5 at the back at Arsenal and Spurs last season, but I'd rather we didn't try it again. If Jay is fit, then it's Goobs' team for me.

Nice one. Change "players" to "men" and it scans perfectly.

Probably on higher wages than we pay. Done virtually nothing since one good season when he was a youngster. Seems to have been more interested in the benefits of being a footballer than actually playing the game. How in anyway does that seem like a Dyche signing? I assume you mean it is because he i...
