  1. 80s casual classics. Ordered a few things from there with no complaints.
  2. Wasn't the Hearts thing because they had Australian players there that he knew from the international set up and thought it would help him acclimatise even if he didn't get much game time to start with?
  3. Nope ! Can't bring myself to do that.
  4. Wouldn't have thought so but others would be in the same position with their clubs not wanting them to take up positions until after the window. If we limit ourselves to those out if work currently we are cutting down the possible field of candidates.
  5. I'd still doubt we'd let him take over before the summer transfer window closes. If so it would be top Dollar

    We need him for Saturday to smile down on the Spurs fans from the screen after scoring his second. One of the stand out memories of last season I want repeated.
  7. We played in London and LNER were on strike, Sunderland played at home and Northern were on strike. I'm all for making it better for fans I just don't get why only one game is changed because of train strikes
  8. Yeah it is but why just them?

    I didn't mean playing styles, more that when they've played there's been a silent "considering they're x yrs old", throw Hall in there also
  10. Tonali didn't have any time to really integrate (and when Bruno came in he played to the right of Shelvey to bed him in) so it made sense to get him up to speed, used to the Prem. also there was talk recently that Ashworth blocked any move for Madison as he saw Anderson there. Hopefully we get to find out next season.

    Pretty much this for me. I've got Miley in the same bracket but a year or two behind.
  12. American hot dog and mustard, Gammon, chip shop curry, tomato sauce, hedgehog.......some good'uns in the discontinuation basket.
  13. Last season he said we needed to be more possession based and the purchase of Tonali who's played his best at the highest level in a 2.
  14. And the train strikes don't affect anyone else ?
  15. But you know what I mean ? I dont think he was meant to MERELY replace Longstaff in a 433. Whether it be a 4231 or a more rotational middle 3, but him being MERELY a RCM wasn't the plan imo.
  16. I don't see that Eddie is wedded to that system. I think we wanted to transition to 4231 type style this season but injuries and a suspension stopped it. I don't buy that Tonali was merely a Longstaff like for like positionally upgrade.
  17. Bilbao lift the cup on pens. The game itself seemed like Championship standard.
  18. Going to pens in the Copa Del Ray.

    Also we've had legs to bring off the bench (Anderson, Barnes etc) which takes pressure off the defence.
  20. I'd like him to stay at the club in some capacity. Has he done/is he doing coaching badges etc ?

    Lewis Hall

    At 19 Steve Howey was a Centre forward, Rob Lee was a winger, Andy Carroll was a left back and most of this board were virgins.

    Dan Burn

    Not sure he was there starting LB when we signed him but he had played there a hell of a lot there and at his other clubs.
  23. I just wish it was Sheff Utd this weekend and your lot a few weeks later maybe with Trippier and Tino back, Barnes a week or two further on so he could last longer. I'm not even asking for our best XI and squad.... is that too much to ask ? Who am I kidding, in two or three weeks Dummett will be in goal and we'll have a team of under 16's and Bruno.
