    "ye gods" tinhatted it for me. Also looked at his posts and many are in the early hours of the morning as they always were due to him being a predatory beast in developing countries.

    You’ve missed the queen of Scotland, apparently she’s not happy with the sacking of Ross

    To be honest.. outside of the football war of words, the SMB I think is canny.. had a lot of help and advice for non football related bits and bobs... some funny posters on there but it seems a lot have vanished...

    Bigots will appear son too.
    Can you remember when he called us all bigots as we didn't like the vuvuzelas in the world cup of 2010. He claimed they were a part of African culture for centuries. It was then discovered they came in less than a decade earlier!

    In my opinion it was the Oxford home game. Up til then we pretty much outplayed every team passing round them through them, not always winning but being easily the best team. They came up here and showed us no respect(and rightly so) and bullied us and we **** bricks, other teams cottoned on and realised we weren’t as good as they’d perhaps thought.
    The wrongful sending offs didn’t help either.

    There’s certainly a point there, when we first dropped did teams assume we were going to be a cut above, and did they then, like us fans, then realise we were actually only marginally above average and that’s the downfall?

    We played better against better sides last season, which again feeds that theory, as they let us play.

    We were supremely comfortable v Luton at home without a pathetic penalty call, we smashed Barnsley despite them playing us off the park, because they left us space and gaps.

    The teams that aren’t coming at us, know that if they box us off theirs no vision or real mobility, and therefore we are ****ed.

    Jack needed to work around this, he didn’t, whoever comes in has about 3 games to find a formula or we could end up out of touch.

    My initial thought was to give you a like for that but have decided against it.

    Spot on mate. At first I thought we’d found a gem in Jack as many performances improved after the half time team talk then we just turned to **** round about Christmas time. We more than had enough to turn draws into wins but tactically no where near good enough. The new man like you say needs to suss this immediately or were knackered for this season.

    I’ve said before I’d play McGeady as a number 10 with Dobson & O’Nien behind. There mobility we are lacking and hides McGeady lack of pace.

    Maguire one wing, and I’d have said Gooch but maybe now Watmore down the other and there you have some danger.

    That midfield, with Geads at 10, could also get Grigg playing off the shoulder, historically he’s prospered.

    Of all his punts, JR never tried this one.
