  1. I remember thinking the same about Livramento and Hall. I'm quite happy to go along with whatever the scouting team and management want, they've proved they know more than me. It's not like the Ashley and Bruce days when we'd be l7nked with someone and collectively think "he's shit" at worst or "he's slightly better than what we've got" at best.
  2. The Premier league will be panicking, who will referee Man Utds games from now on ?
  3. Does it matter on player transfers if the clubs aren't "associated parties" ? (Like our buying Vlachodimos ?)
  4. That's Matt Targett money !
  5. When he played on the right. I spent most of yesterday's game (and probably every game they've played together) muttering to myself to switch Gordon and Barnes.
  6. I thought she went back to Italy for work. Just made it distant for a while.
  7. Something like the council bought their training ground above going rate then let it back for a peppercorn rent.

    They really don't care, providing they pay.

    No. They want them but they don't to or can't pay the money needed.
  10. I totally get that. What if we had all those shots and they just went wide ? Still zero shots on target. You know, I like xG as a stat, it's not perfect but gives a decent idea as to how a game went in a way that zero shots on target doesn't
  11. No denying that. Know what, they had another two or three very good chances, all off target, if instead they'd had 3 shots on target from 35yds that Pope just batted down are they better or worse chances for being on target. I know I'm going a bit OTT on this it just seems weird so much is made of the zero shots on target, if we'd cuts them to bits had 11 one on ones and missed the target with everyone would we still look at zero shots on target.
  12. Justvthe way people are going huge on zero shots on target. Do you really think had Wilson limply had it saved folk would be saying "we had one shot on target"? I doubt it so much. The "zero" weighs so much heavier
  13. For all the zero shots on target stuff. Wilson was clean through on goal and missed. I'd rather have 1 chance like that in a game than 3 on targets from 40 yds that the keeper puts his hat on.
  14. I play some tunes, TV on mute. Some PJ Harvey, Pete and the Pirates, Laura Marling, Ween and the Lovel eggs got me through that first half.
