  1. Feels like he has everything he wants at Leicester, why would he jump ship? The name. Leicester are a fine team no doubt about it, but Chelsea are a bigger name to manage and realistically he would have more chance of adding a Champions League (or even a Premier League title) to his CV there
  2. I didn't realise how far ahead the 2 Manchester clubs were at the end, reckon Keegan may have snuck 3rd though.
  3. Aye he could strike a ball but for sheer power I'd still say Robert. Robert certainly if you were combining power/accuracy. For sheer power, and accuracy for that matter I don't think there are many strikes out there that could top Martins against Spurs. Absolute rocket. Tony Yeboah runs it close
  4. Really should have included him knocking Bernard into the middle of next week. When you look at that, the potential freekick takers in those squads Robert Solano Shearer Speed Now who do we have? Really shouldn't put myself watching these nostalgia videos
  5. Maybe Leeds were right after all... Shame, Carney had us nailed in the Brentford game, reverted to the script there
  6. Another Welsh town. Pardews run had 19 points from 24 games - .79 points per game Brucie has us on 12 from 16 - .75 per game
  7. Has anyone else noticed a slight shift in the media with a few higher profile people coming out against the view that we demand Champions League football and just want a team that is the best it can be? Sven is the latest (always like Monty Burns)
  8. Not so sure, the advance bits that CH would show have been done already - new companies etc. There will be a leak on how arbitration / legal cases are going or if they manage to keep a lid on it then it will be confirmation of the outcome of said matters.
  9. If there was no challenge we'll hear on Monday. Otherwise we'll hear by the end of the month. Would fit in with HTT’s claim.... Or someone else has worked out the sames timeline and HTT is gong off that rather than proper intel. But in HTT we trust (in the absence/never existence of Mimms)
  10. I like the idea of MBS sitting in front of Champ Man picking our targets or playing with a Subbuteo set tinkering with formations and deciding on whether Hendrick or Almiron should be starting
  11. I have a feeling Sturridge will be our freebie striker signing this month, might get 30 mins out of him before the end of the season
  12. He even signposted it through the week with his 'hard place to go, they are a good team' comments. The Sheff Utd players would have been building up knowing that we were going to be a limp biscuit.
  13. I blew a load of Clubcard points on Now credit before they took the offer away, I'm not wasting free credit on this shite
  14. Going through to arbitration could simply be the PLs way out of this. They 'can't' wave it through due to pressures from the big They 'can't' wave it through without a change in proposed ownership structure to save face They 'can't' block the takeover based on the D&O test rules that applied at the time of the submission. They don't actually want to block Saudi involvement in the league due to the money on offer Arbitration says there is no grounds to block it, PL shrug and say they have no choice but to let it through
  15. McClaren was just 100% the wrong person at the wrong time. The club was poison when he came in and he just isn't the personality to turn anything around Pardew rode waves and then got too big for his boots and tried to be too clever far too often. Other than Rafa and Keegan no manager that we've had under Ashley would have taken his squad to 5th place though. Carver, he was just Pardew's turd that wouldn't flush. Bruce actually came in with the team in the best shape of any of Ashley's managers - other than maybe Allardyce So you have Rafa, Keegan, Hughton who were qualified successes (as successful as could be under the regime but potential to have done better if circumstances allowed) Big gap to Pardew Gap to Kinnear Swamp feeders of Carver, Allardyce and McLaren Bruce
  16. Absolutely not. She seems a good pundit - nailed our performance and lack of nounce vs Brentford but her gender should not afford any greater protection than for any pundit. Maybe some leeway for her being new, but that's it. Leeds are wrong in this btw, but just because it is petty and unnecessary, but as it came after thrashing a Fat Sam team they get a pass
  17. Nah, we didn't get within 2 meters of any of them.
  18. Is think the lack of a crowd has helped Darlow, would be interesting to see if he keeps up the same level of performance with 50000 people ready to groan at every slight misstep
  19. I think we all knew even without Brummies warning.
  20. Feel for the back 3 plus Darlow shipping 7 plus, all likeable lads
