I'd take McNeil off. He has been dreadful and sloppy.

Bring on Stephens..3 in the middle with Cornet and Lennon either side of Wood.

A bottle thrown from stands. Leeds fans never change.

We aren't really in a position to cry foul are we? Barton?

Somethingfishy

We are becoming a one man team

The guy is a god!

Oh my!!

Somethingfishy

This is a decent enough start to the half.

I got pelters for saying we were crap against Utd. Today we started ok but then just kept giving the ball away. Topped of by Tarks losing it and the goal. We were a hell of a lot better than this at Utd. We played football and gave them problems. Defensively we were poor at Utd..and again today but...

Somethingfishy

Cork turned sooo easily. Just pathetic.

Somethingfishy

This is a f***ing shambles.

ANOTHER Tarkowski mistake! FFS!

Somethingfishy

Second to everything at the moment.

Somethingfishy

Roberts marginally offside there i thought. VAR would have saved us i think.

Corner Leeds directly from ours….

Ball cleared from another poor corner and then totally outmuscled and outfought in midfield and caught on the break. Very poor again.

Somethingfishy

We are playing a lot less football than we did at OT. We have reverted to type. Play like we did at OT and we'd be doing well here but no we are reverting to type and making Leeds look dangerous.

Somethingfishy

Lots of aimless whacking the ball forward when we get it.

Somethingfishy

There is an element of panic starting to creep into our game and that is worrying.

I think he puts himself accross well, I couldn't of kept as calm with the 57 ways he was asked about how we'll do in the Championship next season.....I like what he says and how he's conducted himself so far. I noticed that too. Andy Bayes covers the b*stards and it is clear he is very much a Black...

Dennis taken off at HT in their game against Spurs, it would be the ultimate irony if he missed a few weeks through injury now wouldn't it. Merson on Sky was saying he didn't look injured and was playing ok. Seemed to suggest there may have been issues at HT in the dressing room. Perhaps he isn't b...

.....and yet we have a manager that is unsackable....

I’m coming away wondering how on earth we’ve lost that tonight. I know they scored three and us only one but the performance was far better than the result. We can’t keep saying that though. We have to start winning games. Glad somebody else thinks that way Tony. I've been quite vocal and desponden...

Somethingfishy

Is it a lack of skill though? Many of these players have shown they are more than capable or else they wouldn't be there. There is a massive lack of belief and mental fortitude in this team and i'd say half of what makes up any sportsperson is the mental side of things. You can be a world beater but...

Somethingfishy

Root’s interview there just sums it up “we’ve had good pockets”……no Joe, it’s been an utter shambles! Just say what you see, admit it’s terrible and maybe we can start to move forward. The bit where he said we needed to learn from this (yet again) irked me the most. How many lessons do they need be...

Somethingfishy

England have scored less in a test innings, but in the context of the match this has been a meek surrender. And take Root's 28 out and it would have been even worse. If this isn't a wake-up call to the ECB then nothing will rouse them. Indeed. There have been worst scores but the complete lack of b...

Somethingfishy

This quite simply has to be the worst test innings I have ever seen. Christ on a bike they only needed 82 to make them bat again and are going to fall well short of that. You have to laugh or you will cry.

Somethingfishy

Remember this is after a team meeting where they talked about their shortcomings and wanted to put them behind them

I'd say it is a shambolic...but words can't describe this. Folding like a pack of cards.
The whole team besides Root and Anderson need sacking off.

Somethingfishy

What did i tell ya...they'd suddenly get further injuries...and they have. It absolutely stinks.

Somethingfishy

Everton don't even need to come up with covid cases. Thye can claim niggles have been picked up in training and now don't have the required number of players available. They clearly don't want to play...so they will find a way. They won't want to risk playing us under strength especially as they wil...

I've long held the opinion that referees within UEFA at the top level in each country should all be in the pot to referee the top flight games in each others leagues. Lets have 10 referees from around Europe refereeing the gameweek. That would surely improve the standard.

Somethingfishy

The correct decision despite the difficulties. Surely it is best to get as many games played as we can to avoid the inevitable fixture pile up later. Postponing gameweeks just kicks the can down the road. Who is to say the situation will be any easier in 2 weeks time? We've been here before and past...

Somethingfishy

Labuschagne is a seriously good player but by god he doesn't half get lucky.

Somethingfishy

Warne " Warner deserved a hundred". No he didn't. To get so close and then start swinging the bat and getting cocky he got his just desserts. Stokes and England laid the trap and he fell into it. Typical Aussie. Get back in the hut.

Somethingfishy

Just remember...he was the ref on VAR when Hooper failed to penalise the foul on Wood when he was clean through against Palace. He was working from a very low expectation base to begin with in my eyes. He didn't have anything awkward to deal with today but to not book the guy who blatantly chopped T...

Somethingfishy

Tbf, I’m certain the trophy would have been at a Lancashire club quite a few times had they been able to take it seriously. It’s a shame. I get the feeling it is not confined to the Lowerhouse players that think this way either. I think many players are of the belief it isn't very well organised an...

I doubt either will go in January. Then again if Newcastle flash the cash in a desperate bid to stay up you never know. Double whammy..massively hurts us as a direct relegation rival and they have a pair of CBs who already know each other inside out. Mee could well be waiting to see the outcome of t...

LOL What's in it for him? He picks the club back up at a reduced price because we are no longer in the Prem and struggling financially (with ALK having defaulted due to lack of tv money) So he is back to square one owning the club with a tidy sum/profit in his back pocket. Now does anyone really th...

Somethingfishy

He didn't invest it. It was the TV money. All he did was invest the minimum amount of the TV money he thought he could get away with, stashed a load away, on the basis of "Need a new stand/rainy day" and then used it to wholly line his own pocket! Spot on. One thing Garlick is is a very shrewd busi...

Somethingfishy

You’d be surprised. It can get very vociferous when big hitters like Walsden and Darwen come to town. Always difficult to get up for games against mid table cannon fodder 😉 We all know that is because they bring supporters. Put it one way I haven't been to a game at Burnley where there are less Hou...

Would you like me to get you a membership form for BCC Fishy? You sound very disheartened

Now now...you can't be that desperate to get people through the gate? You may have the members but from what I've seen very few of them actually turn up to watch.

Think Lowerhouse need to blood some younger players sooner rather than later or they could be in trouble in a year of two. Blez, Frankie, Finchy etc can't go on forever contributing. I keep getting told that those that are old enough are not good enough and the good ones are too young. I think at s...

Somethingfishy

I don't know Fulgini but as per my past posts on ALK, we will be active and if the rumour is true; we will go all out for him as per Cornet. I'm told we're after three players but not necessarily all in the same window and one is a back up option. I questioned regards Barkley and I got a kind of re...

Somethingfishy

Big blow for Lowerhouse losing Jonny Whitehead to Southport. Now that is a blow. I'm actually quite concerned. We were looking stagnant before this and now we have taken another step backwards. I really don't see who can replace him in our current setup. Joe Martin will be a candidate for opening t...

The same Matty Hill who clearly and blatantly handled on the line for PNE against us and Lee Mason didn't send him off. Probably the only person in the ground that didn't see it that day along with his assistant.

Media cranking up the pressure on Benitez, they're saying he will get potted if things don't change soon.
Everton fans still aren't happy either.

Their run of fixtures before they meet us on Boxing day is horrifying. We could conceivably catch them before then.

I'm sure I remember Zaha being sent off on the Turf many moons ago earlier in his career. Possibly when we were both in the Championship? One of those games when he was the pantomime villain and completely fell for the bait.

No mention of it on a certain sports retailers website. No specific offer on menswear. Contrast that to International Womens Day. Splashed on their home page and a good discount on all womens wear. I thought the idea was equality?
