    Genuine slapstick is intentional and choreographed and usually harmless.  Interesting freak incident and worth seeing, but can't see it as funny, when a player clearly sustains a serious head injury. Ended up hospitalised too. 

    This was a freak accident where one player was totally knocked out. The fact that the ball went on to hit another is a one in a million chance, but not funny in my book. We're supposed to be more aware of the dangers of head injuries in football, but it seems some just find them funny....but then some people always seem to find other peoples' mishaps funny, but I bet those people wouldn't like having a ball in the face at the speed that was travelling.

    Alright Karen.

    Rather them than us

    Tough on paper. But in reality, Watford and Boro will be on the beach. They’ll beat Huddersfield, and with the fixtures coming up, not beyond the realms of possibility that Hull and Cov are out of the playoff hunt by the time they play each of them. Which again, would make those games significantly easier. Especially with a potential cup final for Cov.

    Next two are huge for them. And us!

    I find the Dimi / McCallum debate interesting, in that I appear to be in the minority that thinks Dimi is the superior player who I’d pick every time. At 28, he’s into his prime too. It would be a shame to lose Dimi. 

    However, McCallum is showing promising signs of improvement. He’s getting better on the ball and is becoming somewhat of a weapon in the oppositions box. But I still don’t like him defensively or positionally, and don’t trust that area of his game. He seems to make it quite clear he doesn’t like that side of it either! Dimi with Stacy is better balance.

    This is a nail biting season. With the current first XI available I think we can beat anyone. But one more injury,  especially to Sargent, Sara or Sainz, and I think our play-off push would be over. Really feels like it's on a knife edge.

    Still, may you live in interesting times. 

    💯

    I’d add Nunez to that list, personally. The 4 of them together has made this side click. With Rowe to come back, we have a real chance. But as you say lose possibly only one of the above to injury, and it’s probably curtains. Bit similar to our title win in 2004 with Worthy, too.

    They don’t. They are incredibly spawny but with confidence and momentum. If they don’t get up this year they finish mid table at best next season 

    Come on, top after 39 games with 84 points? Impossible not to be there on merit.

    When the clear intent of the guy is all about drawing attention to pulling kids out of poverty and steering them away from bad life choices, digging in to argue that the guy's a rampant racist when it's clearly not the case is just plain ridiculous. Like I  said, waste of space  single issue campaigners justifying their existence is the problem here; not Webber.

    I assume you include Kamara, Aarons et all who have publicly condemned the comments under your umbrella statement?

    This sort of stuff makes me feel deeply uncomfortable.

    Zoe is her own person. The constant need to hold her responsible for her husbands action is at best unfair and at worst misogynistic. 

    It would be a different case if Webber had parachuted in his wife with no relevant experience to a cushy job but she worked here before him and has an extensive career in football. The club should have been smarter about how they have structured the club and the oversight but that isn't her fault.

    Whether she is the right person for the job she holds is entirely unrelated to her husband's inability to keep his foot out of his mouth.

    I don’t necessarily disagree with you, but it’s not how the world works. 

    Being married and having that connection puts the club under unnecessary scrutiny. And when Stuart Webber opens his mouth in public, that connection helps drag the club through the mud with him too. 

    It’s not a great situation and probably harsh on Zoe. But the club and Webbers knew all this, when they decided to get cozy.
