    Warrington and Hull fans are most likely. Especially if they have lost.

    Very rare to see problems between fans. Only ever seen small scuffles. Vast majority just want to have a beer and watch sport.

    Only ones I've ever come across, but fook broken nose blood everywhere, did they make a mess of him, the train guard had to lock him in the guards van, with him, and they were outside saying they were going to kill him when they changed trains at Manchester, don't know how it finished as my stop was before Manchester.

    Watching the EFL show and a lot of goals come from rebounds and pushed out saves, because Bamford totally misses the target and knocks it straight out so often, we miss out on these chances, we need a player who at least gets shots on target.

    Well his pass to Harrison was sublime.

    Not Bamford's fault that somehow Harrison contrived to not only miss from one yard but also failed to get an attempt on target.

    Yet it's always Bamford's fault somehow.

    Harrison has missed more gilt edge chances than Bamford in the last 5 games, Costa always puts it over the bar ,as in the chance at the end today but no it's all one P Bamford's fault.

    My comment was more about other games that Bamford could have looked up and passed to another player in a good position, not todays. Although he missed another sitter. <ok>

    Yes I understood what you were saying.

    Which was the sitter that Bamford missed today...in your opinion ?

    I wasn't having a go at Bamford, I was merely pointing out that sometimes he should pass to someone in a better position. <ok>

    Any stats for that, missed one sitter today, but Bamford missed about 6 today from around 6 yards, and didn't even get them on target

    6 sitters today really?

    I suppose it's how you differentiate between a chance and a sitter

    Can someone tell Chesh that Bamford had a right foot shot on target in the first half and a diving header (did well to reach it) cleared off the line in the 2nd.

    That's 2 of our 5 attempts on target... but that doesn't quite fit his anti Bamford narrative does it.

    Yes about 6 efforts in and around the 6 yard area, and only one kicked at the keeper had to be saved, all should have needed saving from that distance.

    Just interested which chance you mean ?

    Personally I thought his best chance was a deep cross to the back post where he completely missed his header.

    Maybe you agree or was there another chance which you consider was easier ?

    I like Harrison, I think he works his bollocks off, but he is there to set up goals rather than score them, Bamford is there to score. :grin:

    I like him too but his finishing isn't great, for me he is part of a 3 prong attack, you can't rely on just one striker, him and Costa need to weigh in too.

    The one where he missed from 4 yards in the first half, I think it was a nice build up and passes from Costa.<ok>
