  1. I've heard that it was just to try something different but decided that it didn't work and will be back to TWOY next game. Personally, as the last song before kick off when the crowd sings and the music stops, I think its very very good. I'm pretty sure that I have heard one of the players say in an interview that its quite spine tingling too.
  2. I'm not sure its down to Moore. He hasn't given the bounce that I was expecting, but it was an unbalanced and dispirited squad long long before he joined. We haven't been a real unit all season.
  3. In my mind, this is one of the worse teams that I have seen in 40 years. I don't think that individually the players are worse than some I have seen, but there is zero unity. They look bereft of team spirit (something we had in abundance under Clarke and Adams) and we need to almost build them up again from the ground
  4. 100% agree. Its not that difficult to get a quick release out there! Perhaps they are looking into what the fluff went on there. Were we misled or did someone in the medical team drop the ball here?
  5. It gives me the impression that we are not convinced by our current forward line and want to improve it. For all of the faults at the club (I agree that it isn't perfect) I have never once got the impression that we want to go down so that we can celebrate coming back up - thats a mad statement!
  6. What do you think that they do all day ... they practice. This lad will always be big, but I don't see a 10 goal season out of him. He can't hit a bloody barn door most days. He is menace and needs to play up front as a 2, but we shouldn't be building him up as a world beater just because someone else wants him. He is VERY replaceable IMO
  7. In the world of the internet where mad things get said all of the time, that last line is possibly up there with alien landings and drinking bleach to solve COVID. madness!
  8. Thats ultra harsh IMO. I have no data to back this up, but would bet heavily that Carol and the family have invested way way more than they have recouped and that this is not a vanity / asset stripping project as we have seen under Norman in the past. Money in where it is possible to be invested in other areas where necessary is normal business and Carol is clearly balancing the short term losses against longer term gain through investment. If hypothetically the club can make a 100k on a player, bring one in for a 50k and invest 50k into better facilities, surely thats good management?
  9. I've never been convinced by Lowe in midfield personally and certainly wouldn't want to see him there for the rest of the season. We need more movement and pace in there
  10. I agree. I thought Sang looked quite good in CM, though had a tendency to drift out wide. In the formation that we play, based on departures and current injuries, we need 1 or 2 more bodies there I think
  11. I would by no means suggest that I am Crosbys biggest fan, indeed recently I have decided that I think that he should go. But, he is clearly a good man manager and obviously learning the ropes of full management - we have seen what this team can do from time to time when he motivates them and gets the tactics right. So, playing devils advocate to the “get him out now” lobby, is there a case that given more time (like we say about several of our younger players) and possibly more experienced tactical support, we could have a good manager on our hands? Perhaps Carol really is playing the long game with the management, squad and re-building the infrastructure?
