    Once again, Nigel comes out with a little bit if data that he's obviously researched. During his interview, he answered a question on squad rotation, that promoted clubs in recent years have averaged 30 players in their playing squad.

    Did you know that..?

    Nope, and that's one of the many reasons I am not managing any highly successfull football teams!:grin:

    Very happy that Adkins does though

    That's interesting, but this is more so.

    He's obviously already talked to the Lads, because Hooiveld came out and was interviewed and he talked about the same things as Adkins. Adkins reckons our passing between the players was too slow, and Hooiveld said exactly the same thing.

    Don't be soft Fran, it means:-

    It's a quote from the film the day the earth stood still.....

    Should we be concerned that you seem to identify with a huge alien robot with the power to destroy the earth?:grin:

    No wonder my bolognaise is crap. I've been using this recipe for months.

    Nah. I just like the old Gort. Thought the new film, with the oak tree playing the lead, was a pale shadow.

    A pale shadow? Contradiction in terms, unless you mean Jet Harris after he bled to death.

    As expected they are both singing from the same hymn sheet ;) I'm not one for stats like that. Bores me to death but if it's Adkins I'll put up with it. If Jonathan Pearce comes on TV trying to bore me before a game and then trying to make an off the knee scrappy bundled goal sound the most exciting thing ever with his 'robot wars' ludicrous shouting I switch the sound off :)
