    Nope. Nobody gets an opinion on anything ever unless you're more qualified than them to do so.

    If you ever order a steak rare and it comes out medium, you'd better not criticise the chef unless you've graduated from Le Cordon Bleu.

    Where does djokovic find his coach? He's the best player in the world so how does anyone know how to make him better?

    Good luck and thanks Steve.

    Like many I couldn't always understand why or what you were trying to achieve with your selection/tactics but without doubt some of City's best years.

    Just wish you hadn't publicly had a pop at us for wanting no more than to protect our history.

    Nobody knows. A common theory is that his coach is actually better than him.

    In fact, that's a good point. How do managers criticise players when they perform badly if they've never been that good themselves?

    To the Hindensterling!

    Really? Or proving my point.
    I'd think Boris Becker would be well qualified to crtitique Djok's game. While a muppet off the internet wouldnt.
    Here endeth the arguement.

    So all players who have become Number One have themselves been coached by former champions? That's rubbish and you know it.

    A local over here, Berny Tomic, is coached by his Dad who is a taxi driver, and he made a Wimbledon QF.

    I was asked to join the management team at North Cave Veterans.

    Some say it was to keep me off the pitch, some say it was just because I provided the polo shirts for the pre-season tour, but it's quite clear to me that they appreciated my detailed knowledge of the game and my tactical nous. :emoticon-0112-wonde

    Good man and a love of playing in your 40's. Unlike the 20 somethings of today who retire almost immediately from mens football as its a bit too rough playing on longhill/Picky Park. Who then retire to the internet to regale us all with how the pro's should do it.

    My last pre-season tour was Cromer, now I've jacked it in, they're off to ****ing Valencia.

    And the cheeky bastards still asked me for a load of free polo shirts.

    You're in a hole best stop digging or you will be down with sydneytiger14

    First you were saying us mere muppets can't have an opinion because we don't have as many certificates as those we comment upon. Who decides Boris Becker is qualified to comment on Djokovic? does he have any coaching qualifications or do you just think he was a better player, if its the later we are back at the start of the discussion ie its all a mater of opinion.

    Good post but unfortunately it doesn mention our piss easy run to the Cup Final that any **** could have done Or the European **** up or the budget he had which any **** could have done. Or how Derby should have beaten us. Apart from that very good.

    In that case why use internet forums, if you have no interest in what people think

    Chazz and his 'mate' City Man, I'm not sure why they are on here if they don't care what fans of Hull City think
