Do you feel valued as a fan?

As an international fan, I don't feel the affinity with the club that an N5 resident may. However, far from the days of local lads representing the local area, modern teams appear to be full of mercenaries, not overly loyal to the history/geography. Essentially the fans are a cash cow these days. Th...

Re: CoronaVirus Latest

When it comes to Covid 19, most people don't know what they're talking about I wouldn't ask a plumber about advice on how to rewire a house. I wouldn't ask a cardiothoracic surgeon about kidney transplant. I wouldn't ask someone with 3 GCSEs to their name and no higher qualification about a worldwid...

Re: Olympiakos of Greece v Grease Hair doo..Europa league last 16 First leg Thurs Mar 11th KO 8pm

Smith Rowe is class. Great movement.
Even for the Bellerin cross along the goal line h3 immediately took up position for the cut back on the 6 yard box.
He's better than Odegaard.

Re: Olympiakos of Greece v Grease Hair doo..Europa league last 16 First leg Thurs Mar 11th KO 8pm

Roy Keane said the players shouldn't be calling him Mikel. That it's over familiar. Keane is right. The boss must be the boss not their friend. He must make the right decisions no matter how unpopular that makes him. Why aren't Martinelli and Lacazette coming on against a team looking for a 2nd? We ...

Re: Olympiakos of Greece v Grease Hair doo..Europa league last 16 First leg Thurs Mar 11th KO 8pm

Ceballos didn't learn from his own 2 mistakes last round and he didn't learn from Xhaka's mess at the weekend.

But 2 minutes after conceding tonight, Xhaka tried to play through someone like Ceballos did and then Willian did the same!! Nobody learning from mistakes

Re: Benfica Bawbags N Thur 25th Feb KO 555pm

One thing no one mentions about the 3rd goal is the way that Laca is basically wrestling two players keeping them occupied which helps make the cross easier as there are no CBs to defend it, at times Laca doesnt get the credit he should for his off the ball work Should get more game time. Shouldn't...

Re: Benfica Bawbags N Thur 25th Feb KO 555pm

Away goals should have been scrapped for this year. In fact it should be scrapped full-stop. Benfica have done f.uck all in 2 games. We gave them a pen, a great FK and a terrible header. We've played with a real lack of positivity. Odegaard hasn't impressed me at all. Tidy sideways passes. Nothing e...

This game was described as being like a Cup final.

Re: Benfica Bawbags N Thur 25th Feb KO 555pm

This is all very static. Odegaard in particular just waiting for the ball to come to him. I watched City last night and they were always on the move. Playing triangles, off the ball runners, always on the move. This is really shit football from us. Id have Odegaard off for Martinelli or Lacazette. G...

Re: Peps cone boy v Master Pep(Anal mauling) Sun 21st Feb KO 430PM

Our best X1 does not have Pepe on the right in it. His weaker foot is not good enough to play there. Contrast that with Mahrez... We also move Saka away from where he's been phenomenal! I also don't agree with making 3 changes at the back. We have only 1 player injured. Mistakes have been made with ...

Re: Wolverhampton Wanksocks A Tue 2nd Feb KO 6pm

Probably the worst refereeing performance I've seen for a long time. 1. Played on after the alloted two minutes added 2. Gave a quick penalty and red card which on multiple replays I struggle to find contact in. 3. VAR must have tossed a coin and heads was a red because they didn't have time to look...
