    Lennon has in past been linked with the Norwich job , just read Houghton their manager has made 63 subs this season , this has led to no goals and no assists !!! Maybe we should be thankful for what we've got .

    If Lennon left you, do you think he would cut it as a manager in the Premier league, or if he was to come to us, would he be good enough to get a team from the championship into the premier league?

    Come and have a look at some of the threads about our manager and then see if Lennon is the man for you

    I agree that Balde should be given more opportunity. Looks "unpolished" but likely to get a goal when he's played. Biton has had a few starts and done OK in some, not so well in others. As you mentioned, Boerrigter has been injured so not sure we can blame Lennon for his lack of game time.

    I would hope and expect to see more from all 3 before the end of the season. <ok>

    I am usually not that bad at rating a player. I remember looking at a young Danny Cademateri at Everton and thinking....... That lad will be good. I also used to look at James McCarthy and wonder what all the fuss was about.....

    Eventually I conceded that perhaps I may have been mistaken.

    I also think that I like to give players a bit of a chance........apart from Mo Bangura who I wrote off as a dud from his youtube Highlights..... Even in those he looked ****.


    But......I hear people talking about big Balde. How he deserves to start, how he puts himself about........


    I don't like him. He scored a couple of goals in friendlies and a couple of domestic goals and won us a penalty with a flick on. I see nothing at all in him to suggest he's going to be anything other than ****e. I see the unpolished stuff, I see the being a big lad... I just don't see anything else. I'm looking to be convinced here.

    I look forward to having this post rammed up my Jackie.......but he's ****ing rotten.

    Exactly. I don't mind giving somebody else a chance if they deserve it but the players on our bench are rank rotten.

    Has he started a competitive game yet? Maybe he has but I can't remember it if so.

    Not sure we've seen anything like enough of him to make an informed judgement one way or the other.

    I agree. He does seem ****e to me. He deserves a few starts to see if we are wrong. Ot maybe prove it right.

    I cant believe someone at celtic scouted him (over 2 years) and thought aye he is worth £2.5m. Whoever that was should be sacked.

    Could have had finboggson had we not bought him and pukki, and then wpuldnt have needed griffithz and could have used that cash to keep ledley

    He started the first league game of the season.

    We've seen Pooh Key 15/16 times and I don't think we know what he can do but with Balde I see a guy with no first touch at all. He's more lucky than good, which is no bad thing but I couldn't imagine Pukki getting a gift like Amido did for his last one. I can't see that luck holding and without that I just don't see what he brings.

    Last week's loss came out of left field...

    left ****iing field... Aye.... Nobody could possibly have seen that playing a bunch of fannies in midfield would have the result of us getting in tight in midfuckingfield.


    Two simple words.....
