    I quoted his u17 coach who said once Simms has the ball one on one with the keeper he's more than likely going to score. He never gets fazed.

    Actually, it would go in our favour if WHU beat Everton. Moyes keeps his job and doesn't fancy Ekwah, so we hopefully sign him and Lampard gets sacked, we get Ellis Simms back, because the new manager doesn't fancy him.

    Everyone's a winner! <cheers>

    Can mostly be traced back to the introduction of the politics forum. Brexit broke the brains of more than a few posters and the poison has spread right across the board.

    Everyone sane has left, and the loonies are revelling in their mental illness like they've won.

    It's significantly better here - more sensible, more grown up.

    Can only conclude he had a stroke mid article because it seemed to make sense before the 10 in 2 bit. Then his editor also had a stroke.

    "He has a small packet of confetti stuffed into my shorts" wtf <laugh>

    I don't understand why some folk have crack at some ex-pro's trying their hand at management.

    Yes, it's all about the team's success, and yes it's all about the team not losing money or credibility etc..

    However, they were employed by a Club Board...thinking that they have employed a football brain, right?

    Okay, that ex-pro does'nt quite cut the mustard...and eventually get the sack...okay then that makes sense yeah.

    But why the hell do they then get pilloried and lambasted for not bringing their player knowledge to the table FFS?

    Do you think that they really want to get beat, week in and week out?

    Hero to Zreo ?......

    Yeah so Clubs turn on these once hero's....when a team falls on bad times...or gets relegated....like..

    Shearer, Quinny, Bryan Robson.....

    We loved these heros....and I bet you all that you can name loads more...

    Lampard is also hurting like ****...

    Very few out there who aren’t ex pro’s. All I can think of from top of my head are McMenemy and… errm… Ted Lasso? Just started season 2 and he’s still not doing great

    He is going to " help" KLD?

    The bloke has been clearly proven to be a liar, a chancer and very far out of his depth.

    If we need his " help" , we are in a bit of bother.

    It's unusual, but there are more than you'd think who didn't play at the top but won things as a manager. Bertie Mee never played. Howard Wilkinson. Jose Mourinho barely at professional level. One or two others as well if I could remember them, but it's true they are very rare.
