Re: REPORT: The home defeats keep coming

Fair enough report but I would have made much more of the non penalty in the first half. Having viewed it from every angle I can see why the ref did not give it but I cannot see any reason why VAR said no except to support the refs decision As for next weeks game v Sheff U it is a must win if only ...

Re: Ben Mee

No he wouldn't And even if we're plsying the hypothetical game, he'd give away more goal scoring chances than Al Dak with the way he'd be asked to play. He was player of the season last year in a team who plays anything but route one. It's a myth that he can't do it, he's a very talented footballer.

Re: Have we ever had such a good season followed by an instant low

The high from the glorious promotion of '09 extended to around December, then we came down to earth with a bump. And not just because Coyle jumped ship, the rot had set in before then. His departure made it much worse of course, partly because he took the signings he'd lined up to a relegation rival...

Re: Everton docked 10 points

Must admit i tend to agree. We are going to sue Everton because the premier league didn’t deduct points from them? It’s a bit of a nonsensical argument No, we're suing them for cheating and staying up at our expense. The points deduction has just proved that they did, giving us the ammo to sue.

One of the best things we did. We've since had the internal doors taken out and laid new flooring throughput the whole ground floor which flows into the conservatory. It's become like an extension.
