    Not at all , I wanted him starting in place of Roberts and my view hadn't changed. Yes he's raw but he offers explosive possibilities and pace, to me Roberts offers **** all. When Willock is fit again I fully expect us to go back to 2 number 10's and Dykes up top. Until then I'd rather have Dykes and Armstrong than Roberts floating around doing naff all !

    Chuck him in at the deep end
    I think he can cope

    Cheers <cheers>
    Just 6 games ago, we were 22nd and in the bottom 3.
    4 wins on the bounce took us to 6th.
    Whilst, as you say, a win today would take us 4th, I have a feeling that Cardiff will be up for it today, given that we did the double over them last season (the first ever by either side).
    Anyway, fingers crossed <ok>

    They're still bleating about losing Leon!

    Although more convenient for us would be a Cardiff win, I could never hope they do well

    So I stayed in Italy for the Luton game (that didn’t work) but I stayed away from LR yesterday and last Wednesday, so that did work out. Shame I won’t get to any matches on this visit- shocking timing.. will follow online and on tv until I head back down under.
    See you next year

    True. But Cardiff's form has been a rollercoaster of late and they seem to be on the way down. Might jag a point, but really can't see them win. Already 1 down as I type.

    G'day IAN. I've heard that the players watch out for you at the gates. As soon as they catch sight of you they decide to tank it.
    What have you done to them mate?! :emoticon-0140-rofl:
    They thought you were at the Luton game, but turned out to be Sam Simmons in a butcher's apron. He gets around, my old mate Sam :emoticon-0126-nerd:
    BTW if I were you I'd spend a few more weeks in Europe. Weather on the Aussie east coast has been atrocious. Like the world has been flipped upside down.

    On the plus side Watford really giving it to The Glutes. 3-0.
    30% conversion rate on shots, 50% on shots on target.
    Sir Elton would be proud.

    I think you can uncross everything now mate. It'd take a miracle for those birdies to get a point let alone a win. And yeah, welcome to the dizzying heights of the Championship. I think I can see Mount Everest from here. Hope you brought your own oxygen tank for the next 5 months.:emoticon-0150-hands

    Do they get their info 3 days late in Glasgow? QPR top since Wed. 19/10.
    Hello to all my mates in the great northern wilderness.
    Oh and thanks for LB. He is good, ain't he. :emoticon-0125-mmm:

    I didn't want to upset them anymore than they already are by telling them that bit of info, especially after their result yesterday!

    I used to be a Rangers supporter before they got relegated many years ago. I think the Scottish FA relegated them several tiers and took them some time to get back to the Scottish Prem. I wasn't too happy about what transpired, so shifted allegiance to Celtic. But let's keep that between you and me, OK. :emoticon-0148-yes: :emoticon-0100-smile

    Nice little buffer now between us and seventh. Would still snap your hand off for sixth even with the sheer mediocrity of this league becoming more clear by the week.

    It really is quite weak isn’t it? Wigan looked quite good coming forward but crap at the back. We looked like everyone was playing with a heavy cold.

    Are you going on Friday? I might be in the Old Crown again before the game.

    I’ll be there but will probably have to just park and go straight in unless the traffic is very kind. Will keep you posted.

    Oh No. My cover's been blown. Do you think those northernRs will find me here in Oz?
    Probably go looking for me in Kansas :emoticon-0138-think.
