Jesus' first PL hat trick with that penalty

GodIsADeeJay81

The dates of Ramadan are based on the lunar calendar so it moves around. For most of the last decade it's basically completely avoided the domestic football season. For the last few years it's been beginning in May and now April so that's why Iftar is falling during games. I'm sure I remember the s...

They were holding team talks at the world cup in USA 94 during water breaks due to the heat if I remember rightly.

Looks like Sheff Utd may have a new owner soon, looks like he's trying to get the deal done before the end of the season/playoffs.

GodIsADeeJay81

That sounds like a promising appointment, judging by the article and his experience.

GodIsADeeJay81

Excellent player for us, I don't think he ever really let us down, left everything on the pitch.

Stephens wasn't much use then. And it's weird that he was seen as good enough 4 years later. 2015-16 season he played 45 games in the championship, 3970 mins out of 4050mins and wasn't in the squad for one game. He scored 7 goals during that time in the league. The following season he made 39 champ...

They've got a game in hand don't forget, but it sounds like our lads have found that fighting spirit again.
We can only do our best in regards to picking up points.

Sounded like a good game, the team grafted and showed better quality.

Great result

He has started adding goals and assists to his game in recent months, and he's finally starting to look the attacking midfielder with an eye for goal we signed from Bristol City, and long may his improved form continue. I've always said Brownhill was doing what was asked of him by his manager, but ...

I believe Vydra has played a wide forward role at times in his career, if we judge Lennon as not up for it. Jay certainly has. I think McNeil will probably end up converting to a number 8 if he's to progress his career - he's a very traditionally English wide player currently and that's out of vogu...

Both those fit the criteria I believe

They had to appeal for Rangnick, it wasn't an automatic yes because he hadn't been a manager for a good few years.

Utd managed to get their current incumbent in the door.
They're going to get Ten Hag in aswell.

I'm sure we can find a way to get this bloke if he's the one we've chosen

Whilst I agree the eticket approach is definitely the way forward and a vast improvement I have ordered tickets on a whim before and simply picked up on the day.

I'd risk Kjetil Knutsen 100 times before appointing Wilder

After watching his utter collapse at Sheff Utd, I'd be inclined to try someone different too

GodIsADeeJay81

That's a pretty one sided equation..... have they replaced them with staff who are doing better? Are ticket sales easier, are communications better, is the club shop in better order, does the club feel more, or less connected to the community>?

From that article I can see a two things. The owners had a clear out of non-football staff who weren't pulling up any trees, which is a view I've held for a while and expressed before because the club was lagging behind in various areas. Dyche had become bigger than the club if staff were going to h...

Boro fans are always like this, the Gazette doesn't help. If this happens he will become their OC

The Gazette loves to stir the pot, they did last time over Karanka etc

Not sure how he could be their OC, he's been there a few months and achieved not a lot.

If they're recruiting men from other countries, at what point does the world just say enough's enough?

They could do this for years and years, shipping in fresh cannon fodder but the Ukrainians can't.

Genuine question as I would like to understand. When Mane passed the ball forward for the opening Liverpool goal last night, Diaz was several yards offside and moving towards goal. One pass later and he scores. Why is he not given offside? He evidently gained a few yards advantage over the defender...

Fulham romping to promotion, and almost certainly the title soon, 3-0 up on PNE, now whether they'll fare any better on their latest PL visit is the big question.

Risk is risk & this 1 is hell of a substantial 1 especially with the club in a perilous position dropping out of the top flight.

GodIsADeeJay81

Again without wishing to drag you back to the point, which was that Alan Pace is unlikely to want to risk the club when in fact that is exactly what he has done. Whatboutery arguments based on other times when circumstances or individuals also risked the club are not relevant to the point. But if y...

GodIsADeeJay81

It is, because the sums are so much bigger. But in that circumstance no individual associated with the club created that risk so in many ways it's a mute point. Ok, what about the Orient game? Or the season Coyle got the club promoted to the PL for the first time and since then it's been widely ack...

I’d hope we’d get 20m for him though 30yr old keepers perceived as having “ poor feet” are not exactly in super high demand .

It's a good job clubs looking at potential players check the stats then, because they say he's not that bad.

Until the new manager is in place, what league we're going to be in has been confirmed and which OOC players have been retained/released then we've no idea what money we may need.
