Who absolutely. I am a fan of his approach and the way he is allowing the players to grow. Just disagree with the pen approach though, for reasons previously explained. Anyway, it's old news now, onto Tuesday.
Oh there are arguments both ways and as in all things its a question of balance. Sometimes you just have to take the rough with the smooth. Small margins and all that.
I totally thought the same about Le Bris reminded me so much of the Kipling quote that’s around Wimbledon “if you can meet triumph and disaster and treat these two impostors just the same” And yes karmas a bitch we can have a wry smile when it comes back to bite those two smart arses.
Watching the interview with Trafford he was certainly clued up about Isidor ,we need to prepare better that for sure., but maybe the rules are wrong. Maybe until the goalkeeper is ready and only then, should a player step forward and place the ball on the spot, after all a penalty kick spot kick is meant to be a reward .
From RTG ... 'That female steward was over the top with all the women. She had a look in my bag, then told me to empty my pockets. I was then felt along each arm and around my torso. I got told off as I'd accidentally left a half used roll of Bisodol indigestion tablets in my coat pocket. Then she went up and down each leg thoroughly to the point where I thought she was doing to do an internal while she was down there. Finally she checked my hood. I'm a middle aged woman who was attending the match with her teenage daughter. I don't really fit the stereotype of football hooligan. Also thought the steps up to the seats were particularly high. I've only got short legs and tripped up on the way up to my seat. We were in the right hand corner as you look at the pitch. It took forever for the stadium to clear and us to get out. We should have been catching a train and would have missed it. Thankfully before the match, I'd bumped into a fella from Not606 who was travelling alone and he kindly offered us a lift home.'
She is right mind. Searches way over the top. 66yrs old and being frisked repeatedly. Hood pulled back inside out . Way over the top. Didn't check inside my cap though. Wish I'd known she had bisodol had terrible indigestion.
It was the same at Stoke, I ended up flinging my bag on the table and said 'Search it again, obviously twice isn't enough'.
What a shame I didn't know! I've got crohn's disease. I'm like a walking chemist shop on away days, just in case!
Always remember an away game at Carlisle, there were about 4 turnstiles to get in and one turnstile had a long queue, wondered what was going on. Anyway get to front of short queue only to have a pat down search by a policeman, looked to the turnstile with the long queue and there's a WPC doing the pat down search. The Male coppers were laughing their heads of as she was having to work so hard and take so many helpful comments from Sunderland supporters.
Wow, memories ... I was there and got a pat off her Broke down on the M1, near Meadowhall, and had to be towed home by one of the Hell's Angels in his pick-up truck.
Did you have to wait long... ...for the pat down, not the pick up truck I've remembered another one Wrexham's away, we had just got through the turnstile when a WPC started to pat us down, the lads said to her "his tits aren't real, he's hiding something " She proceeded to feel my, err, manly chest, only to be sadly disappointed. Think it was around Easter when we played at Wrexham' and then Shrewsbury' on the Tuesday night. Stopped in Rhyl only to find Frankie's bus were also stopping there. Drink was taken.
So having watched the match we struggled in first 20 to get to grips with the diagonals hitting our fullbacks. Could one of you more educated chaps explain to me what changed after that, as we seemed to have no further problems there for the rest of the match?
We've had various teams use that tactic this season because our full backs lack height. Swansea, Preston, Coventry, Stoke have all tried it to varying degrees. Against Burnley we stopped trying to win the challenge, stood off them and then engaged. It was so simple Burnley looked confused.
Yes, really good lvideo that ( alt ending ) Although he was harsh on Mayenda, it wasn't a miss...was a very good clearance by the guy who brought Wilson down for the first pen....who should have been off.
My best mate is a wolves supporter. Went to a Chester v wolves game at Chester's old ground with him. Another good mate who had fell through a ceiling at work and his leg was in plaster and an old ginger bloke with a head twitch nicknamed "indicator" (work it out ) I got searched going in by plod who seemed upset i wasn't carrying anything. I protested why they were heavily searching me and one stated "I had that face" We were next to the Chester fans and at half time I was trying to climb over to get at them Never liked the cùnts. I went to a friendly at their new ground when Peter Reid was manager and I think his brother played for Chester. Me and my wolves mate got spat at by a car full after the game. Called us Geordie bàstards. I was fuming, fooking calling me a Geordie ffs
Great spot by RLB. Drop the full backs deeper. Such a simple change but leaves the Burnley players looking at Parker like ‘what do I do now gaffa’ he responds with ‘**** would I know’
