Probably a good thing Neil Grewcock has retired...

I was asked to sing A Little Respect at a recent wedding. Think that’s my go to song although my all time favourite is Rock me Gently (the original ten minute version). Blue Savannah is a classic!

Fair play to you if you hit those falsettos!

Swizzlestick

A Little Respect is just a perfect pop song.

Blue Savannah probably my second favourite Erasure track.

Swizzlestick

I like Chris Wilder, speaks a lot of sense and the comments at the end are almost certainly Dyche approved.

Swizzlestick

Also, if anybody is into more techno-y stuff, he made a great record with Martin Gore of Depeche Mode under the name VCMG. Highly recommended.

Swizzlestick

Absolute genius.

100% !

The charisma-free Keir Starmer, wasnt the "forensic" grand master, when it came to reading the small print of Black Lives Matters aims and objectives, before he "took the knee"

Voters in labour's former heartlands would be left bemused by the metropolitan bubble dwellers actions.

House!

Big, big love to you and your family.

My Daughter was born 20 weeks early and weighed 2lbs - she’s now 35 and considerably heavier. Best wishes to Ben and his family, Olive Grace is bound to be a fighter and she’s got an absolutely cracking Dad I think there may be a little maths adjustment needed here or you need to contact the Guinne...

Swizzlestick

My daughter was born 14 weeks premature and I was a total mess for the entirety of the time she was in hospital. How he has managed to lead this team, on and off the field, in the way he has utterly astonishes me. An absolute hero.

Considering the team we put out, that was a superb performance.

Best thing about this is even though he’s an absolute megastar, he still has the passion and enthusiasm of somebody just starting out, even for tracks he must have sung hundreds of times. A cut above.

Bit like Joey B then?

“Check out the big brain on Brad!”

Swizzlestick

Continuing his pre lockdown form, great to see. Love his movement up top.

I think he and Vydra can cause defences real problems with their clever off the ball movement. Perhaps not expected by teams expecting the 'long ball' cliché.

Just sit and wait. Leopards don’t change their spots.

Indeed. Everybody mentions the ‘ostrich’ incident with the reporter but his actual strangling of McArthur during a game was astonishing and I’m surprised how much it’s been brushed under the carpet.

He represents everything that is wrong with the celebrity life.

Talentless. He must know that though. His wife must know it.

I love how much he annoys you.

He’s a decent light entertainment tv host. Seems genuine. Fair play to him.

Swizzlestick

Confirmed left.

Swizzlestick

The TV show doesn’t work. Crouch is likeable but certainly not a TV personality and Alex Horne’s humour is suitable for certain things but not this. Maya Jama obviously there for the LADS but she’s a charisma vacuum.

Swizzlestick

Per Jeff himself, talks were ‘active’ re a new contract late last year, so it isn’t just like the club haven’t bothered their arse. What were the demands being made? Especially when clubs like Celtic and Milan entered his and his agent’s equation? We have to be careful with salaries, it’s a given. A...

Swizzlestick

Or maybe he's done it the right way, got nowhere and is at the end of his tether with the situation. Sort it out behind closed doors then. If he’s expecting us to break the bank for Hendrick at such a financially sensitive time he’s going to be disappointed. He knows why we have to be like we are. ...

Swizzlestick

I do think Dyche has handled this pretty badly, especially considering the situation for everybody at the minute. I get the frustrations, I’ve voiced them about the board before, but there’s a time/place and a way of doing it, and this wasn’t it. All very unprofessional, which is unlike him.

Swizzlestick

I get the Villa connection, but if they do go down, they’ll be expecting immediate promotion. If he doesn’t get that, he’s out of a job. This is not a good time to be switching jobs.

Does beg the question as to why scientists say it can take up to ten years to develop a vaccine. Is that purely down to the numbers of people involved or have they invented new testing? Here's an article about the dangers of a new vaccine: https://www.ft.com/content/f1b25b41-f3cf-4a73-ba8f-582385bc...

Luxury, for me. Seen it before - team have a great player, who they play regardless despite, when they need to be scrapping out wins. Ran the show at the Turf and they need his quality to provide the chances. Nobody capable up top though. I wouldn’t describe as him as luxury, tbh - he puts the yard...

I was going to say, ‘self-righteous’ is the last think you could accuse Cobain / Nirvana of being.

Bit less ominous than it was a few days ago. Sean has since backed off and said he's "No less happy" than he has always been. In other words, he's always a bit frustrated but he accepts that that's the job at Turf Moor.

Think he’s realised he went too far. Well I thought he did anyway.

I think Villa need to drop Grealish (luxury), sack Smith and bring in Allardyce for 8 games, drop 433 and play a proper 451.

Grealish is their best chance of staying up!

Heaton being out is a massive blow for them. Too high a player turnover and manager is unconvincing at this level.

Swizzlestick

It’s been alright. To be expected after such a lay off. I’d expect things to pick up in the next week or two, particularly involving teams at the bottom.

Same ones are on the Covid thread Joe was a very good signing at the time.

Lots of people at the time questioned the decision to spend a substantial amount of wages on a player who’d shown no form for nigh on three seasons previously in a position we didn’t need to strengthen.

Swizzlestick

And people criticised Tom for being ****** off about the situation. Who could blame him?

The psychics will be out in force to say it was a poor move because of what they now know since we signed him.

There was also his form the three seasons before we signed him.

Swizzlestick

He sort of inadvertently rocked the boat when Dyche inexplicably put him in the pecking order ahead of Heaton. He seems like a decent guy but it just didn’t work.

He’s in a no win situation though. If he blasts Dyche he’ll alienate a lot of fans/he’s the ungrateful chairman/give Dyche (assuming he is angling to leave) his free pass out of here/airing dirty laundry If he lays what’s been offered out he’s pandering to people wanting to know what’s not really o...

Meanwhile the chairman's silence is deafening.

What should the chairman be saying?

Contracts have been offered, they’ve been refused.

Did I mention I served in the forces? I served in the forces! Did I mention that?

what does that have to do with anything?

Who will your ‘uprising’ be against? What will it entail?

We need keep Sean, but if he prepared to fall out with the Board over any of the ooc players, then he is clearly imo engineering a move. Unusually for me, if it comes to sides, I am backing the Board on this one and not Sean. Same and I never thought I’d say that. His timing is off on this one - al...

Amazing what a manager who knows what he’s doing can do for a player.

Losing Nuno would be a greater loss.

Swizzlestick

One thing no-one seems to have factored in is the salary SD is currently on. He's supposed to one of the better paid managers in the Prem and in case anyone hadn't noticed, there is going to less money in the game in the coming months. TV rights won't be as lucrative and as such any player and mana...

He’d be insane to leave now. The amount of uncertainty everywhere is unprecedented and when you look at viable clubs he can go to, the list is limited to say the least. Villa maybe most likely but their lot were gassing on about how much of a dinosaur Dyche is. Plus, their ownership would probably w...
