Am I right in thinking that the seats in that end at Bristol (the away end) don't always have backs to them anyway?

yeah you're thinking right. Safe standing would be far better than hunching foward and walking out of the ground with a bad back

A dull and lifeless town, with a ground that has all the cheer of a dentist's waiting room.

6 points from three games I was expecting at best 2-3 from. Brilliant result

 

You and I are gonna live forever

Only if Tarky doesn't Slide Away

"Forget the first half lads, it's still nil-nil-nil, yeah?"

Superb. Although the video doesn't convey how long it felt between Gerrard hitting the bar and the final whistle

Like Manchester United denied making a bid for Juan Mata then....

In the sense that we probably won't be hearing the end of this for quite some time, yes....

Brentford have denied making a bid. Next rumour please....

wish i hadn't have read this thread. it's mid morning and i'm salivating now

Ridiculous. You wouldn't be throwing the team extra money if they won 6-0.

You have different opinion. I think all the above is about desire. Can he not time his jump? Why don't we just let all tall players head it, forget competing. His first touch is wank- does he try an win it back, nah he gives up. His attitude is wrong. Why did Johnson sub his main striker for a kid, when he needed a goal??

 

The expectation thing is strange one an all. I didn't expect anything off him, it's naive to think any player will replicate form at one particular club. All you do is hope they turn out to be decent. I judge him from what I've watched- nearly all the home games. An for the most part he worse than ineffectual, he's invisible.

This. For the most part I almost forget he's on the pitch. Rarely looks to start something off himself. I don't see it when people expect him to come good later in the season. He'll do the least he has to do and no more
