Good Morning Everyone, The U21's came from a goal down last night to sink Brentford in the last fifteen minutes of the game. Brenford went ahead in the second half against the run of play, and looked to be cruising to victory, but Del Fabro headed an equalizer from a Adryan free kick with twelve minutes remaining. Five minutes later Parkin fired home the winner. Racism is widespread in English football with police having to deal with hundreds of incidents from the top of the game right down to grassroots level, an investigation has revealed. It also revealed that Chelsea supporters have been involved in the most number of reported racist incidents as they travelled to and from matches on trains. Leeds United and Manchester United were joint second with 10 incidents each, followed by West Ham with eight, Arsenal with four and Portsmouth with four. It follows the high profile case of a black man who was prevented from boarding a train in Paris by Chelsea fans as they sang a racist song, with five of them due in court this week. The information, gathered from 24 police forces across the country, shows there have been over 350 incidents since 2012. Chief operating officer Matt Child has left the club after less than three-and-a-half months in his Elland Road post after less than three and a half months at his post. Child, with a background in telecommunications, while also previously holding senior positions in private equity backed companies, was handed “immediate responsibility for the management of day-to-day business” when United president Massimo Cellino announced his appointment in December.
Good morning to Matt and co from a very sunny Bardsey I see that Cameron Stewart has been loaned out to Barnsley from Ipswich looks like another flop signing from McDermott lucky we escaped this one Looks like I had a good result yesterday but I wont really know for 3 weeks when the samples they took are analised but fingers crossed It seems we will be able to sign Cani on a free is he even worth that?
Morning Mike, hardly a cloud in the sky here in Southampton either... Cameron Stewart, that was a lucky swerve. How the hell we got Ipswich to go for him, I'll never know. Cani hasn't been given any game time really. He needs a chance surely, but we need a 20 - 25 goal machine if we have a realistic chance of going up next season
Morning all from a sunny Doha We can do without the uncertainty of people who have resigned from the club, would like to know the reason for it! Racism!!!!!! fed up of hearing about and of it, i was racially abused a while back, this raghead cut me up at a roundabout, i blew my horm and asked wtf was he playing at, he put his finger on his lips to say shut up, and said "you dont like you leave" so is that racist!!!! where do i complain?????? i shall tell you....... no ****ing where here, as there is no where to complain to, so thats racism and dictatorship rolled into one in my books
Morning all, Cani seemed to be a really strange addition at the time, and nothing has happened to change that. We've been having issues with goal scoring all season, so the opportunity to bring a striker in on loan was great for us. He clearly isn't producing the goods in training if we haven't seen him yet, so can just add him to the pile of scrap signings. Even if he is available for free we shouldn't be signing him on that basis. We can aim a little higher than loaning Serie B cast offs. He didn't even get in the development squad. Apparently Redders wants a contract discussion during the international break. Thoughts?
Morning Durham, apparently for the size of him, he's a bit light weight and doesn't seem to like the physical side of the game. That's according to N.Whelan who commentates on most if not all of the Whites games.
Morning shaks Definitely not going to fit in a Championship squad then, even if he has the ability otherwise
Morning Durham, Who would be higher up the pecking order? Cani, Sharp or Doukara? We should keep Antenucci. We should also keep Moro as a squad player
Morning Elland Based on what we've seen I'd say it would go Sharp, Doukara, Cani. Not much to chose between Sharp and Doukara for me, as I'm not sure either of them are the answer to our striking woes. New striker, with Antenucci off the bench, Moro as a squad player would be best. As we have Doukara for 3 years now, I guess he will be slotted in somewhere though, maybe used as backup to Byram / Taylor playing wide?
Doukara, being as big as he is, needs to be more of a power house, and a lot better at holding the ball up
Morros contract is up at the end of the season isn't it? Madness to keep him on especially on his rumoured wage. Morning all
If he can play that role then it would have to be as part of a front 2 really then, with a more lively striker feeding off him. If he played that role in our recent formation, it would be relying on Mowatt to take the ball from his holding and get the goals really
Big Mick seems to believe anything we tell him,Hunt and Varney as well.Think our deadwood will stop them going up.oops
