This is where football clubs are going wrong. Managers are getting fired for not scoring league points at the same rate as managers of other clubs but actually, the rate at which points are scored is "irrelevant". I'm off to explain this to Southampton fans. They're going to be relieved. Complete c...

It’s around 6-7 times more likely that a horse will die in a jumps race.

So, you either want to protect race horses or you don’t.

At equal rates?

Irrelevant.

People do realise that race horses die in flat racing don’t they?

I agree. As long as we breed animals with the intent to abuse them then it's OK. It is their purpose. We used to do that with people until the woke brigage got all outraged over it. Breeding with the intent to abuse and we did that with people did we? You’ve a rather warped view of history there bu...

How did I know that someone with the username SocialistClaret would post some utter guff like that.

Might get interesting if the protests stop the races from happening tomorrow. Stick a tenner on that.

I’m there tomorrow, been a few times now.

There are better places to protest than one containing 60,000 ****** up scousers.

Can’t stand Andy Robertson, he’s a snivelling, snarling up his own backside soft piece of ****. The lino didn’t hit him hard enough for me. A thought that just struck me, is it still a rule that a free kick can be moved forward ten yards in the event of dissent? If it is, I can’t remember the last t...

It’s all relative though. Most people are not worried about Muric at this level as fundamentally we could almost have any in goal and we would still have been promoted. The point is people have concerns about his effectiveness in the prem. you think he will be great and others don’t. It’s just opin...

Judging by his reaction to this thread, Riley seems more of a Boo Hoo boy than a boo boy.

The interesting one will be the PFA Team of the season as this is voted for by fellow pros.

How many of our team will make it into that?

Despite our dominance I reckon it will be 3 as an absolute maximum.

arise_sir_charge

Here's some basic football knowledge. Man City, Liverpool, United etc etc are not going to sit back and watch Beyer pass it to THB then over to Roberts, back to Muric, over to Maatsen for two minutes at a time like Reading, Millwall and Swansea. They're going to be all over us and it's a lot harder...

arise_sir_charge

One quick observation, all those bemoaning posters dredging up old threads showing that some of their opinions have proven to be garbage (Jakub seemingly being the main complainant) would be the first to be posting “I told you so” threads if they’d been in any way close to being right. I’ve quite en...

So Neil, has chosen tonight to call out Muric and Maatsen.

Best ignored I think.

Players hold all the cards, if we want him, he will be here.

The Icelandic clap sounds itchy. Nothing a strong course of antibiotics won’t sort though.

arise_sir_charge

Putting Dyche’s comments aside and the antics of Kane, the issue is the rules. What the Everton player did is a red card offence, however you can almost guarantee that had Kane stayed on his feet the most likely outcome would be that both players get booked for the altercation. You see it all the ti...

Vaughan wasn't found "not guilty". He was found as not guilty as he could have been in the circumstances. An actual finding of not guilty is near impossible based on what is effectively one persons word against another. The only way of finding him not guilty would be to say Rafiq was lying which wa...

Not many proing jobs that allow you to play 10-15 games a season spread out from April to September.

Don't stop at a kidney in your quest for finding the most outlandish option to show your incredulity that tiered loyalty systems reward the behaviour that they deem valuable. Not qualifying for the top tier of loyalty is also an option. But look, no single metric to define something as intangible a...

arise_sir_charge

Once again, there are options, they may not be palatable. You could sell something else, you could get a 2nd job. It’s very rare there are no options. I do understand the frustration of an organisation introducing a tiered loyalty system, based on what they define as loyalty, then removing it at a ...

arise_sir_charge

No it isn’t always an option. If I want to buy something that cost £200 but only have £50 then buying it is not an option. It’s not a choice I’m making, it’s nothing to do with choices or sacrifices, it’s that I don’t have the money. I struggling to understand why people can’t grasp that plain and ...

What is most disappointing on this thread is that some long-standing and I’d argue well respected posters have used phrases like “more deserving”….madness.

I actually think that despite all the foot stamping and rattle throwing the club have handled this in as fair a way as possible.

Update on my earlier post…..I logged in about half an hour an go and it let me buy the 4 I’d applied for.

AGENT_CLARET why don’t you sleep yourself the ticket that you got in the ballot you didn’t enter, that way you’ll have the two tickets you need.

arise_sir_charge

I applied for 4 tickets, all for fiends and family. Two of them have notifications in their ticket account to say ballot successful. One of them has no notification and doesn’t even have a ballot entry in his purchase history. The 4th one has no idea as he never uses his ticket account as I do it al...

I think that anyone posting on this thread that has been successful and has fewer points than Tony should do the honourable thing and pass their ticket on.

Never. Stuck with what we have and a few kids forever.

Some haven't quite grasped what could potentially happen. Were Rovers to get promoted they'd be in the Prem just like us, and all our gloating this season would count for nothing. Hang on a minute, if Rovers get promoted they will be in the Premier League, just like us???? Can’t believe that I didn...

Has he played left back this season? (I'm sure there must have been times but can't remember any). He has chosen Vitinho there as a replacement. He has played as a Centre back, but often just covered Maatsen out left when we have the ball. Or come on as a 3rd CB to shore games up. The system isn't ...

The way zaroury is playing at the moment, I'd be putting Taylor in that position

Is this the same Zaroury who was sponsors MOM against Wigan and had a hand in two of the three goals?

arise_sir_charge

Not sure what the point of this post is.

It sort of flies in the face of “we played the way we did because we had to”, which I don’t think was the intention.

arise_sir_charge

Must admit, I think Taylor has looked like a fish on a bike at left back this season.

arise_sir_charge

Yesterday would be a harsh reality if our ambition next year was to win the premier league, it isn’t, it’s to stay in it.

There is a huge difference between City and the rest of the premier league barring a handful of elite sides.

Not sure about Barton, he’s 40 and not played for a good few years now.

arise_sir_charge

No scores from me , best forgotten about . Although first time I’ve been disappointed with Kompany, who bought into the returning hero a bit too much for me . Couldn’t disagree more. I thought he handled it brilliantly, it was impossible for him to avoid and pre game he acknowledged the Burnley fan...

I felt the biggest mistake selection wise was BPF and not Muric in goal. In a game where we aren’t going to have much of the ball, when we do have it we needed to be more incisive, BPF is a bit laboured. The amount of times had the ball facing our own goal was remarkable, the City press is remarkabl...

I thought he did quite well last night.

He under hit a couple of passes but I think that was more because the interceptor was Kyle Walker who’s lightning. He will learn from that.

We’ve had some bloody taterings off City in my lifetime even when they were bang average.

As someone said above they are our bogey side; problem for us is that they are also the ones who have spent £1pm on players!

arise_sir_charge

We all name players we’ve seen in the Championship but I doubt that’s where we will do much shopping. Maybe an odd one but I think it’s more likely players barely anyone had heard of until we are linked. The links to Alex Scott are interesting but I suspect wide of the mark. He looks exceptional to ...

Not convinced about Taylor with Dyche.

He wasn’t averse to leaving him out then he had him here.

People are going to be upset when this fight happens. All the Joshua sympathisers will have to pipe down.
