Could we get Harwood Bellis back?

Stayingup

Well done Zhao Xintong. World Champion from Xian China. Wonderful player. Mark Williams a Welsh great beaten in the final.

Stayingup

After the match the police were escorting many of the Milwall fans along Parliament Street. About 8 or so police vehicles tore up the street after them. Something must have happened up there.

Stayingup

Has it all. Just wonderful to see a forward in front of him effortlessly caught and cleanly. Beyer on his way back too we are told and he's also a good player but STEVE is just class.

Stayingup

Had an excellent game today did Hannibal - as did a few more notably STEVE

Do we really need yet another thread about this?

Did we need a thread about Graham Dott?

Stayingup

Sad but a great send off for a great guy. MANY valley folk - and others there. I have a picture of He me and some other mates in Arunel 50 years ago. Nit a tattoo in sight and no shorts.

Stayingup

If he played like this from the beginning, he would have taken the fans with him like Mullen and Coyle did. Keep it going. Yes but a new team - as we seem to experience most seasons now - takes time to learn about each other. And that's why, in the event that we do get promoted we need to keep hold...

Stayingup

We have some really good players and it showed yesterday, despite the best efforts of another poor referee. A good striker and we would be points ahead at the top of this division.

Stayingup

How on earth this bloke is a championship ref, never mind being fast tracked for a Premier League position, is beyond my comprehension. He’s better than Gavin Ward but unfortunately for him only just and Ward is probably the worst ref I’ve ever seen and I have watched Darren Deadman… I watched Rams...

Stayingup

Not good. What I can't get to grips with is when the defender gas his arms wrapped around a forward; as happened today to Foster for example, no foul is given?

A very clever footballer, eho didn't forget life outside in his time off...every day!

Haha. Toughest opponent he ever faced, when asked in an interview - ex wife. Great character Frank and a very good footballer.

Worth highlighting the current England manager couldn’t get them to finish top in his first full season there.

He's not as good as our poster!!!

I think Dyche comes across really petty and bitter here. As he often increasingly does unfortunately.

Does he? Where else have you heard his views?

Stayingup

Dyche was immense and a club legend who could arguably have a statue built at turf. That being said i enjoyed Kompanys promotion season more than any season under Dyche Yes but one of Dyches promotions was not expected and my mates and I put a bet on at Christmas that they would be promoted and tha...

They would likely be top with you in charge.

Looking forward to Kastrati coming on. He'll have the **** to make it count.

Game needed a goal, and Newcastle have deserved it.

They have and Trippiers pin point crosses are brilliant.

My thoughts are similar to the OP really. Never really minded Newcastle until recently. But the Saudi link and the self proclaimed "best fans in the world" award is starting to grate a bit.

Does it grate as much as Nevilles voice?

Saturday afternoon is for football. This is just ridiculousl
This is why the gates are down. Night matches. Many can't make it.

Stayingup

Some common sense applied. Not much around these days do good to see.

Weird one that. I thought managers spoke to officials after virtually every game.

As for the ref, has he purposely been stood down this weekend?

He bloody well ahoukd be. It's a tough job and we are seriously short on good officials but this one was dreadful.

Absolutely dreadful atmosphere again tonight. Empty seats everywhere, no atmosphere. Are we actually challenging for promotion?

Summed it up. Night match. Too many this season. Saturday is for football.

Stayingup

Barnes showed a strikers instinct to be in the right place at the right time. We have missed much of that this season. Countless crosses and noone on the end of them.

Stayingup

Rubbish :D There's nothing like the roar of a powerful ICE and a lung full of exhaust gases :lol: To quote an orange, maniac dictator "Drill baby, drill" :lol: Well if you knew what you were taking about yiu would know that modern ICE vehicles emit cleaner air than they take in.

Character. Loved trains and railways. I recall him getting an answer correc on egg heads,I think on the subject of Geography, because he knew a signal box was there!! Where ever it was .

They have trailed this in the Carabao cup, not sure what the benefits are.

Maybe no benefits but at least the players and manager will know why a decision has been made. Of course there is more discipline in rugby.

Stayingup

Could the Rugby Union situation be applied to VAR in football? Wheret the decisions and the reasons for them are broadcast to the whole stadium.

Scott Arfield 5 goals 3 games.

Great signing by Dyche. A real whole hearted and strong player SA

Stayingup

I also like that referee has to explain his decisions.

Stayingup

Just love the internationals. Very enjoyable.

Stayingup

Two players booked last night for trying to rough him up. One when he wasn't on the ball. But it didn't let it upset him. He's quite robust and a really good player

Stayingup

He has some pace Foster though he doesn't apprear to be a natural goal scorer like for example Charlie Austin. BUT if we play a more direct and quicker game and use the laong ball (Shelvey) as we did in the second half last night, then he will be a good asset. So long as others are scoring and he is...

I went in Boots the other day. I was the odd one out - I paid. It's shocking the level of this crime and of course it's pushing up prices.

Stayingup

When under Dyche, the team.played in Europe that season he was I think, more or less starved of funds and ended up signing Dale Stephens who was hopeless. Dyche did bring in some free and low cost signings who were very successful. Heaton, Arfoield, Bond, Barnes and Barton to name some of them. He w...

That team made more than enough chances to beat Preston easily. They didn't take them. I blame the players!

But Parker picks the team.

They defend very well, but are no real threat from our set-pieces.

Whereas Mee, Tsrkowski and Kean were.

Stayingup

Maybe the playoffs. Not getting a goalscorer in is hurting us, as with all the nil nil draws. I sometimes think that the defensive record, which is fantastic, has taken preference over winning.

Stayingup

Chris Wood or a young Charlie Austin WOULD score goals in this team

Stayingup

How did we not beat Derby???

Stayingup

Echo that. Very enjoyable game with at least seven stand out players. The passing CJ for example joyous. I1magine what the score might have been with a good goal scorer in the team.

Stayingup

Following on from last week's game where a few of us highlighted our slight concern, that our poor passing along the back line was limiting our forward momentum. Tonight against Hull, we were much improved and to my mind it certainly contributed to getting to their end quicker and more chances crea...
