    Anyone see that absolute sitter Harry Kane managed to somehow put wide at the weekend? <laugh>

    Reminded me of us before we got Gedo & Boyd. <whistle>

    Unlucky for the lad. Should have gone far post.

    Shame because Nugent or Wood would have scored that. He's only a young lad.

    Unlucky, or absolutely gash finish? I'd go with the latter.

    If you'd gone one up, you'd probably have won and still be well-placed in the picture for a top 2 finish. Could prove a costly miss.

    Also, I remember you saying you wouldn't take Boyd. However, when presented with a similar chance yesterday, Boyd comfortably rounded the 'keeper and finished tidily (and then scored another). Would you still have Kane over Boyd?

    Im sorry but he is just bound to come on as a late sub in the play off final and get a 92nd minute winner!

    Ha ha he'd be a hero after scoring 3 goals all season, can you imagine if it was against Leicester, this board would go into meltdown.

    Yes. Boyd wouldn't fit into our team.

    Yes, but they play in different positions. Plus, that is just absolutely delusional.

    Boyd played no end of games on the wing for Posh.

    Just because Bruce can't tell the difference between a striker and a winger...

    Yes, Bruce's misjudgment has really cost us this season ... where are we again? <laugh>

    Boyd's favourite position is second striker, behind Wood he'd probably do quite well tbh.

    Boyd would never get a game as that Knockaert's position

    Plus we have standards here. We tend not to sign blind players <ok>

    To be fair, its probably not misjudgement. More doing what you can with what you've got.


    But then again, he's only himself to blame. What with him spaffing 2.6m on someone who couldn't score in a brothel <laugh>

    I thought Knockaert was an attacking midfielder, more like Koren's position?

    And as we sang to Birmingham yesterday, "Beat by a blind man, you're getting beat by a blind man".

    Knockaert plays anywhere off the strikers. He pretty much has a free role at times

    I've never seen the lad play (though I did see the miss), but I feel I should point out that you make your own luck <ok>

    Has his form tailed off recently? Haven't heard you singing his praise as much as before.
