    Buy a new keeper because Grimshaw is terrible, sign a striker that can't get first team experience in a top league & perhaps a defender that can play left back

    Dig deep.Attanasio .

    But don't forget, he's only busy because he's the weakest player on our team and therefore targeted by the opposition ;) Isn't that right Robbie?

    What year was that, 1962? How good was Bly, 1950?

    What was also surprising is that we had 56% of the possession overall. Our quick passing progressions were impressive. Clement wants the ball passed in under 2 seconds and we were doing that throughout.

    Genuine question, Rick (and others welcome) what do you think Manning was asking of them?

    Were they adhering to his system, and his system was so bad? Or were they rebelling against a system they never believed in? We have seen these players can pass the ball quickly and with some accuracy. Nothing has changed..so?

    1959 famous cup run. Bly went to Peterborough after us and scored 52 goals one season.

    Those were the days eh, GE? Lots of goals scored in those days. Like Boxing Day was it 1963 or 1964 when 66 goals were scored just in Division 1!

    I wish I’d been a youngster then. Football was great, The Beatles, all of it, and you could even pat someone on the bum as a sign of acclaim without being sectioned.
