    I'm not disagreeing mate I haven't seen it. Hopefully he winds his neck in.

    Agree to some extent but the foul didn't need to happen at all.

    I hope so mate, it wasn't a great bit of TV.

    Personally he needs to own the good and the bad, I think that would help him

    Absolutely it was pure foolishness. He's a young lad though and these things will happen. If O'Nien or Ballard steps out and heads it clear nobody gives it a second thought.

    I think it made it worse he missed the chance earlier then gave away a stupid free kick that led to the goal. Totally agree should never have had a free header.

    I'm getting that impression. No good having a coach/manager who can't see their own flaws.

    Biggest part of any management is owning and admitting your own flaws imo

    They were in League 1 a year ago, we were in the playoffs 2 games away from the Prem.

    Are you really trying to say getting beat from them twice now is acceptable because they are an ok team.?

    Yes but they have assembled a very decent squad together. If we had a fully fit squad all season last season we'd have gone up too.

    They're second in the league mate, that's a bit better than ok. I don't give a **** what they did last season how they're performing this season is what counts.

    Not interested in a debate with you, just giving an opinion. I'm sure Beale knows more about football than everyone here, but don't think he's going to work out here. Think I'm allowed to express an opinion here still. Sorry it's bothered you so much :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    Not bothered at all, was briefly interested to see if you had anything worth listening to but clearly not. I'm not in any way trying to suppress your opinion.
