    lots of cult favouritism going on here aswell as short memories. taylor was better than colo last season and at least as good when playing this. looks like the online hatchet job on taylor has worked. being cold blooded about it taylor has proven to be the better performer at premier level and will be on nowhere near the level of wages as colo. being rational, everyone is up for sale, it just depends on the price.
  2. reading will be tricky, they are in form at the mo.
  3. right then, what exactly am i supposed to be looking at "bag too gay" or "sexiest politicians nude pics" ?
  4. quite happy with the defense...at least 2 in midfield and 2 up front says I.
  5. they were booed aswell as they ran on the pitch.
  6. That’s true of most teams is it not? They go a goal down and start to play with more drive and ambition, push a few more men forward, take a few more risks. ManU are a good example, score against them and they step up about three gears. The thing that has struck me this season is how often we’d have been in trouble if the opposition had taken a gilt edged chance. Tonight’s game was little like that. Sheffield could easily have gone two up before we got the kind of pen that is rarely given. I’m also concerned the defence has got a bit cocky, developed bad habits that will be punished next season. However, our promotion is fully deserved and credit is due to the players and the manager. I have some doubts their achievements have been quite as herculean as is made out, but they’ve worked hard and thanks are in order. what gilt edged chances ?. the best chance until that time was routledges poor finish when one on one. you're right in general though as its happened many times throughout the season just tonight wasn't an example of it. There was that goalmouth scrabble from the corner in the first half. On another day, in another league that would have hit the back of the net. Perhaps gilt edged was the wrong word but I can’t be bothered with debates about semantics. i normally think a gilt edged chance is when you think normally it would have went in, not on another day etc. like i said earlier i agree with your point that we got away with true gilt edged chances against us earlier in the season (particularly before christmas).

  8. every game is an individual game and should be looked at that way whilst knowing it is part of something bigger............grasshopper.
  9. disgusted theres no foto to be honest.
  10. true about not playing great football but latterly at home it's been a case of how many we'd get (coventry,barnsly,cardiff etc)and we've been dominating away from home (watford,donny,posh)
  11. shame its only now that players haver been making the runs for him to do that. if he cracks the distribution from his own half then he'll be in the spanish squad (and more sadly barca's or real madrids)
  12. credit where its due, he's been quite decent in the latter stages of the season, particularly at home. well done to lven aswell, good awareness for the lay off. good job it wasnt a proper overhead kick......i'd have had to change my pants !
  13. " i have a gun, hand over the takings"
  14. now thatwe are up i cant be accused of saying it just because we are there but the covergae outside the prem in the national press and TV is shit. its a self fulfilling prohecy that more people will only be concerned about those teams f thats all thats covered.
  15. ajax earlier on with fener and real madrid. feners the iffy one. not exactly free scoring recently and the oppo are decent away from home.
  16. Just need to match Forest's result. If we both lose, its confirmed as only 4 games left. LLLo the sharpest Pencil as usual. go back and check
  17. if forest dont win on monday we'll not even need that. they finish before we kick off.
  18. sorry for the folkj who travelled but i'm wanting bristol to hold on for a draw and not win.
  19. out tonight so i'll not be monitoring the scores live so a four timer of ......... citeh twente bruges (laid) barce.
  20. it was because of barce that i didn't want to touch arsenal today.
  21. leeds 0 swindon 3 thats a collapse and a half.
