i am biased. i know dan, he's a norfolk lad conor mcnamara, good shout by the way. not on motd enough for my liking
there'll be a few boards up and down the country who are thinking about dismissing their manager right now, just so they can get adkins
You mentioned pride and tradition. All clubs have that. Forest did a brilliant job in the late 70's for 10 years and I doubt that will ever be repeated. Blackburn, don't forget, did what Mankini City and Chelsea have done and that is bought their success without installing any foundations. Admittedly it is a small town and does well to achieve what it does considering its location. Leeds were the envy of every supporter in the country in their pomp. They had world class players who could play any style you wished except they chose to play it their way. That they didn't win more is a mystery and definitely one for the conspiracy theorists. The fact that they had and still have some of the worst supporters walking the planet, does not detract from their achievements.
Pochettino has managed one other team, he was sacked from that job, and has no experience of the Premier League!!
Lucky break hey Yorkie??? You dont finish 1st in league one 2nd in championship and 12th in prem through luck.... Oh and i suppose southampton had a lucky break too?
Envy of no-one in Suffolk in the 70s that's for sure. Oh Huckers... lucky break in getting Lambert in. It was his work (not McNally's) that got you where you are.
I would hardly say getting Lambert in was lucky...but also you have to remember as well as Lambert done for us it was big mc who got him in first place.
yorkie is on the wind up - he doesn't actually believe a word he's typing. if he does think these things then he knows less about football than any of us had thought before!
Really??? They were dirty cheating scum as we found out in 3 FA Cup games we played against them in 1975! Shame really because when they put their minds to it they could actually play some good football!
I howled with laughter when hampy said the reason why he gave up being a binner moderator was to concentrate on football. He has never been near a football match for donkeys years. Seriously though he always makes a real idiot of himself on our board. Long may the hampy jester Continue to entertain the football world.
They played some brilliant football. Their 6-0 demolition of Southampton still rates as one of the greatest club games I have ever seen. And many of us saw Andy Nelson play for you lot so the indignation about dirty cheats doesn't wash and who can forget 1965 when you cheating buggers let Keelan ice skate in his goal area and let in three and then your groundsman sands it at half time so your fat bugger wouldn't slip over. I remember a guy I was at school with jumping onto the pitch and ripping the bucket out of his hand.
And I remember Allan Clarke spitting in John Wark's Face and Allan Hunter coming over and sorting him out for doing it! Oh and of course Joe "Elbows" Jordan deliberately elbowing Beattie in the mouth and knocking out his front teeth! Yeah they really classy back then! Oh and you had Duncan Forbes try and play for you when he wasn't getting booked for a being a dirty bastard!
I think 'cheats', may be too strong a word here. To me a cheat is somebody sneaky. Big Dunc wasn't sneaky, he was blatant
