  1. Well personally I don’t appreciate a player that like has been said above only seems to play for himself, yet still can’t produce anything. Take away 2 goals at Blackburn and the guy has literally done nothing. Unless of course you want to count his horrendous shot that thankfully was so shit it bobbled through to Davies for him to tap in. He said he was fast when he signed but to me he looks like he’s running in slutch because the ball is never under full control. Hope he proves me wrong I really do but I don’t think he offers anything to the team.
  2. Anyone reckon it’d be worth a wage having a proper defence coach? Looks like Paul Terry is doing it at the minute but wasn’t he a midfielder? If we get Doyle back in on a permanent and make some good additions including Moimbe who I rate, we’ll have a good side but need to cut out the errors and look more organised at the back. A proper defensive coach could be just the thing to get us more solid at the back and relieve a little pressure off the forwards to produce the goods.
  3. That’s true, we do need stability. However, I don’t want to be stable but shite. If there’s a better manager out there then I want him.
  4. I’m not overly arsed if we keep him on or get rid as he’s not done anything different to our last 4 or 5 managers. Like anything however, it’ll depend on who we replace him with. I don’t want some random foreign manager who’s never played or managed over here and doesn’t understand the league. If AL is wanting to go down that route I’d much rather us keep RW but give him funds and a good playing surface. If he’s getting rid then it’s got to be for someone who knows the league and has experience of getting a side out of it OR a big name ex pro that will gave the immediate respect of every player and has big contacts in the game. Obviously others might have a different slant on it but that’s my two penneth.
  5. No surprise really. Think he’ll be binned off at the end of the season whether we stay up or not.
  6. First I’ve heard. Wasn’t mentioned by Wellens in the presser was it?
  7. Thank you my good sir. Am I missing something really obvious or is there a secret technique?
  8. https://www.dropbox.com/s/6h7ly2ths0bqb6j/Photo 29-03-2018%2C 14 03 38.jpg?dl=0 ....please help......
  9. Had my team all ready to show you all but can’t insert the image as apparently it’s too big?! It’s a bleeding screenshot!
  10. To be totally honest - and I’ve been the lads’ biggest fan this season - Fane needs bringing out of the side for tomorrow. If not definitely on Monday. Byrne is a genius at times with the ball and seems to have great vision. We have a striker in Doyle who has probably the best movement and finishing in the division. It’s criminal that this is being wasted by Byrne being played wide and/or dropping so deep to get the ball because Fane’s footballing ability only allows him to play a 2 or 3 yard pass. I’d say get Pringle in midfield with Gardner but I think he’s been quite poor since signing. Possibly worth a punt with Mouche who seems a defensive minded midfielder who can also pass the football properly which naturally allows Byrne to stay further up the field. Thankfully I’m not the manager and it’s not on my shoulders but it is getting a bit tedious seeing the same players every game when we have more than capable players in the squad.
  11. Not been a ‘joy to watch’ for a good few months in my opinion. I want that swagger back that he showed so often early on in his loan. Always willing to have a dig from long range and played some glorious balls. Hopefully we’ll see the best of him again on a newly laid carpet next season.
  12. He does tend to drop well back of his own accord though, knowing his best mate Kean Bryan will always pass him the ball. Just needs Wellens to tell him and get the other centre mids pulling their weight and it’ll be reet.
  13. It was according to our fantastic United fan groundsman. Seemed like he couldn’t wait for something like that to happen to Tarky. Probably hates us after getting a bit of stick for our embarrassing pitch.
  14. Obviously loads of fresh ideas flying through the boardroom. Great to have some enthusiasm from the top again. Something we’ve not had for a number of years.
  15. Think you’ve taken my post the wrong way. I too think it’s a great idea for the kids and in no way am I mocking kids for going because as far as I’m aware there’s no young kids posting on here? (Correct me if I’m wrong please). Big Dog was suggested to people in the thread go and meet the players instead of catching a game of football (just for you Monty) to which I simply said nah you’re alright.
  16. Yeah if you’re 10 and want to meet the players and get your autograph book filled.... Think I’ll watch some footy and have a few beers thanks!
  17. He probably could but it’d Be pointless as whenever he gets forward into a bit of space no bugger passes to him!
  18. To be fair all 4 of those options are fucking awful!
  19. Just to add - anyone who shows their season ticket at the Mossley turnstile gets in for a fiver! Can’t fault that really. That is season ticket holders at ANY Prem or EFL clubs.
  20. Need to spend more time exercising at the gym rather than talking to players then bud!
  21. Don’t get me wrong I don’t go anywhere else normally. Just thought a few might fancy a few beers and a bit of footy to support a local club.
  22. Doubt many more will purchase a ST but he’s making the right noises and hopefully a good team will encourage people back for POTD who will buy a ST the year after.
  23. Best thing about going for me is the pie, chips and gravy! Oh and mushy peas. Can’t get that at many grounds!
