  1. People are losing their heads, we aren't going to be changing our system for this, that would be nuts and uber negative, nor will there be major changes to the team. Two weeks ago we are winning the title, now some are acting like we are underdogs when we are 1/8 to qualify, calm down! Is it a foregone conclusion, no obviously not, but we are in an amazing spot to reach another final, every single person going needs to be making their voice heard, be positive, and we likely will get it done.
  2. No sorry needed, was a great bet, I was allowed 30, unfortunate
  3. We just had an off day, pretty much everyone was off it, and we got punished. Win the next two hopefully before entering into a season defining period, exciting times!
  4. Most likely yeah, was just a heads up for those without the info.
  5. Just fyi Palmer didn't train yesterday, not to put you off
  6. Really hope some others had the Sky boost in saves tonight haha, fucking class 3 saves each in Mackems game was 4/1 and that 2nd penalty save in last minute won it haha, so good!
  7. For sure that's true, Eddie generally does get a lot of credit for the coaching side of things though, pretty much everyone is in agreement he's a very good coach. I just don't think I've seen much mentioned about his skills on the recruitment side, which like I say he seems to be heavily part of, and we're absolutely crushing it in the department.
  8. Something I don't think he gets anywhere near enough credit for, and funnily enough is actually used to crticise him when things aren't going so well, is his involvement in our recruitment. It seems to be the consensus that he's been massively involved in that side of things, and whilst I think it is important any one person doesn't have too much power, the results speak for themselves: Hall - Class Vlachodimos - PSR dodge Osula - Too early to judge Kelly - On a free, but again too early Tonali - Class Barnes - Injuries have hampered him to build any real momentum, but he's still got 10 goals and 4 assists from 41 appearances (1,570 minutes, so a goal or assist every 112 minutes, Gordon is every 145 minutes) impossible really for anyone to say he's been a failure with any credibility Tino - He's a good right back playing every game, potential to be very good Isak - Unreal Gordon - Very, very good Botman - Class Targett - Can put this one down as a negative, bad injuries as well though Pope - Excellent value for money Ashby - Was a 3m punt, fine to go wrong Bruno - Class Wood - Helped keep us up and got a chunk of the fee back, easily goes into "good signing" bracket Willock - Injuries are a big issue with him, but think again it would be extremely hard to call him a failure, we paid 25m for him, think we at least recoup decent amount of that back if not make a profit if we sell him in the Summer Burn - Legend Trippier - Arguably best right back we've ever had That's really unbelievable recruitment, please keep doing what you're doing Eddie!
  9. Imagine winning our next three league games and getting past Arsenal in the Cup, highly possible, then having City away, Forest home, Liverpool away and a cup final to come, amazing! Dream the impossible dream that we somehow win our next 6 in the league, we'd then have a genuine sweat to win the league ffs, and it's not even that unthinkable with how we are performing, not saying its going to happen, I'm not nearly as pissed as they other day (iykyk lol)
  10. Good draw for us, few Premier League teams are going out and some tricky ties for others, definitely take that.
  11. Leicester to beat QPR, glglgl
  12. PS I know we aren't there yet, long way to go Not the worst outcome if I wake up tmoro and a mod has deleted this and it never happened lol (sorry again if this is out of line)
  13. So, I'll cavaet this message with an apology in advance... I don't want to upset any mods, or members who see things differently, but just wanted to have this conversation. So two years ago we played Man U in the Cup Final and I was obsessed with being there, I was previously a season ticket holder, seasons where I went to half of the away games, I was young, naive, and there was no way anyone loved it more than me! I lost contact with the people I went to the match with, so my only way of getting a cup final ticket was to take the Club Wembley route, which was basically committing 7 grand then hoping you recoup it back. (you get 9 games at Wembley per year and can sell on their portal the games you don't go to, many of those games didn't sell) But basically my point is, there was a lad on the train I was on the way to London with who was buzzing because he managed to sell two tickets for £300 each so he was freerolling the weekend, which in my opinion is more than fair enough, but I had to bite my tongue to not tell him I would've paid more to buy those tickets, in hindsight I wish I'd got his number! I understand people who think it's not right to sell at a markup, everyone's entitled to see this differently, but for me it's simple supply and demand. I'm not going to do Club Wembley again if we get there, simply because it's too expensive and I sweared to myself I'd only do it once because I'm not that rich. But I can't see any reason why it wouldn't be fine for someone to be willing to sell their ticket for say £300-400 on here so they get a free weekend and someone else gets that golden ticket they want so much, basically just want to say to not be so judgemental on this topic as it's a really fucking messy spot, and I'll be cheeky and say PM me if you have a spare and I'll very happyily pay a big markup to be able to go to the final <3 (if your not comfortable with profiting from it I'd happily donate to the forum instead) This forum is class, I mean no disrespect and if this is out of line obviously take it down (I'm very drunk sorry), think it's a conversation that should be had, my timings probalbly wrong, but no offence intended, much love xx
  14. Would be madness to play him three times in a week when he's just comeback from a serious injury. Hope he's not even in the squad for the weekend.

    Lewis Hall

    Chucked a couple quid on at 66/1 Glgl
  16. We don't need to "sacrifice" the FA Cup, there's two games max left in the League Cup so we aren't going to be hugely stretched on three fronts. The proposed 2nd team most are saying is still huge favourites to win vs Bromley at home, then we see who we get next if we get through for what team we need to put out, and the next round of the FA Cup is the weekend after the League Cup semi so don't need to rest players for that.
  17. Surprised how many want to play Bruno, definitely wouldn't start him. Fine with playing Willock who needs minutes, @Mikky team above looks good.
