    Interesting insight, Dawson can give advice and to Hector and the FBs but it's Hector we're really talking about isn't it? if Slutsky's coaching (although I doubt he gives much input into this) and senior players' help doesn't result in any improvement then the unity of the defence is compromised. Dawson is probably just hoping for the best now. Muzuch could be a chance to change our solidity, I just hope he's not rash.

    And yes good teams are built from the back - there are examples of fantastic attacking sides who had iffy defences but that's not the norm - the confidence spreads from 'knowing' that the guys behind you will snuff out danger

    You could be right, but if that is so then you have to include an element of 'collusion' OR you have to give some sort of 'credit' to Ehab on his ability to steer the club mid-table, especially when he clearly doesn't understand football.

    Plus - would a manager take a job with the remit of 'I don't want this club going anywhere, win just enough points and I'll pay you well'

    Or did he take the job on false promises and then find out the truth?

    I don't think it was Ehab's plan at all, I think the clueless twonk just thought getting promoted again would be easy.

    You might get away with that if the manager was called Bruce but not with a new guy who is still learning the ropes in this country

    Confirmation a referee can rescind a card during the match. Hector received a yellow card for the foul that led to the penalty and minutes later was shown the red.

    Presumably coaches will now be telling kids "That's it, give him some grief, there's always a chance he'll change his mind."

    Grounds for an appeal? Let's hope we don't mount one.

    It was perfectly fine for the referee to consult with his assistant and change his original yellow to a red, as the game had not restarted. I couldn't understand why he hadn't been given the red in the first place, as he was clearly in a goalscoring situation. The ref was a tool.

    My mates girlfriend cleaned up at the cup final when chester scored first. Purely based her bet on the fact her dog was named chester.

    Indeed - plan A was the assist, plan B to score

    We no longer have a plan a or b. We have a philosophy...

    I'll tell you something about a polo you may not know.

    If you snap one in half then you separate the positive and negative charge within some of the molecules on the broken surface. They instantly recombine resulting in a visible flash of light.

    You need to be in total darkness however to perceive it.

    Surely he's not that naive, but then again.

    How to turn a premier league side in 2016/17 into one that looks like a league 1 outfit in 2018/19....All down to that witless, useless, arrogant pillock

    Bet that took her a while. Tell her I'm sorry if I spilled my beer.
