LQ

[quote user="grrrr person"]I had a laugh, personally. Thought we played alright, and Sunderland were superb on the break. When the atmosphere did improve in the second half it wasn''t bad at all. Sat in my normal seat in the very empty Snakepit, and was surprised how few of the regulars there was. I even got told ''It''s only a game'' by some young lass sitting behind me, whilst i gave Andy Reid some stick. Made me laugh. Bloomin'' stewards though, nicking our inflatable ball...  [/quote]I didn''t see anyone walk away from the game on a low. We were always going to lose and it was obvious that Lambert was using the match to have a look at some of the squad. Had that been a league game it''s a whole different kettle of fish but against a PL side being able to have a laugh at the end made it fun in a strange way.Cody is making himself quite the cult hero and by god we need one of those to get behind every once in a while!Cam started a thread on here a while ago about the last time you enjoyed watching a game for what it was - I''ll add Monday night''s to my list.p.s. It''s always annoying when someone nicks your ball...[:P]

"They come and they go"Ain''t that the truth!And ''GrantRoederDisaster'', yes I have. if I hadn''t seen what the boy is capable of I wouldn''t comment.

On the original point of this post the advice I was given (which I didn''t ask for) by Mr Tilson when I suffered similar language and abusive behaviour in the street following his mate''s article in the EDP after the SCG/Cullum meeting, was to contact the police and Roger Munby and Neil Doncaster.I truly couldn''t see the point in wasting any of their time.I must say ''wifebeater'' is an odd accusation to throw at anyone though?

Thanks for that, Cam.I had an inkling that may be the case when he came out on Saturday (and tonight) with footie boots on. Does he think he''ll get a game or something???[:S]

Personally I''d just never start him but bring him on at 60/70 minutes. Wanting to sell him doesn''t make sense to me.There''s no doubt the midfield holds its shape better without him and we can''t really afford the 4-3-1-2 formation in this league that he demands. But it can work towards the end of the match when much of the hard work is done.Alternatively if he must start then a dedicated right winger is essential. WLY and all that...

What''s the problem with giving Rudd a go before spending more money on another ''keeper?The boy really is cracking hot!

As I said after the Col U debacle, I cannot believe he was signed as a winger, or even to play on the right side of midfield.Surely now the only team for Saturday is:Rudd (if Alnwick''s injury looks as bad as it did from the ten feet I sat away from the tunnel)Smith (he''s played at RB as much as in CM for the kid''s team) - Askou (despite errors) - Doc (sorry but Nelson was worse!) - Drury (is he fit yet???)WLY - Adeyemi - Hughes - LappinHolt - CodyWe may have a big squad but there''s not many cherries in there!

[quote user="cityangel"][quote user="LQ"]Yep - there''s only one of me (I think?)Got fed up with the other site crashing and continually logging out as you were posting [/quote] Thought I''d seen you on there a few times in August or is that a different LQ?   [/quote]You really are getting quite dull, did you know that?It''s admission time obviously! Yes, I posted a question on Qs for the Club because I was unsure about the rules for international clearance. That was 2 posts (one to say thanks for the reply) on that day, pre-season.Next I joined in the match thread for the Brentford game and I may even have posted a couple of things in reply to some old friends.Gosh, I''m guilty as charged.Do you really have nothing better to do?Oh I know, how about you post something ''off topic'' in the wrong forum?No, I forgot. You''re a ''mod'' aren''t you.Want to have a go at me about something else? Don''t worry about it - I''ll only ignore you.

In which case - Hi Ian [;)]

Yep - there''s only one of me (I think?)Got fed up with the other site crashing and continually logging out as you were posting so I thought I''d make some new friends. As you''ve probably noticed it''s not going too well...[:P]Who were you on there? You can choose not to answer that if you like btw!

Well I would say ''hi'', but if I do and you reply politely you may get tarred with the wrong brush![;)]Oh, sod it - HI!

Eh?Yes I was at that game. I just couldn''t remember off the top of my head how many we were up by when Cureton ''should'' have passed.Fortunately someone who did remember has let me know - it was at 5-0. All the more ridiculous that Grant should criticise Cureton for having a go. Anyone on a hat-trick would, surely?

Yep - Grant had a pop about Little Jamie afterwards because he was too greedy and took a shot rather than put the ball through. Weren''t we 4-0 up at that point?

As far as I know you''re right, BG.There would be crush barriers and such to put up and the way the stand was constructed (for seating) doesn''t immediately lend itself to that without, as WAY says, a large expense.Having visited a few of the stadia you mention in Germany they do work because that''s how they were designed. But hey, you can also drink in view of the pitch out there - saving the situation where a few complete p*heads will try to down 2 pints in 15 minutes!

Funniest thing was this bloke I knew who swore blind he''d been a season ticket holder since he was 17 (this is when he was 36) then his mum told me he got his first one in the Prem year and hadn''t really shown much interest up till then![:S]

16,031And should we win and go on to lift the cup there will be a minimum of 64,352 fans who swear they were there for every round [;)]

[quote user="Andy Larkin"][quote user="Empty Mirror"]The two accounts aren''t mutually exclusive.   Gunn was still the Manager until this afternoon.   But he wanted to send out the same team as Saturday, including Theo, to "redeem themselves" on Tuesday.    Butterworth disagreed.    The Board effectively told Gunn he had to send out Butterworth''s team, with no Theo.  The 4-0 win thus did not strengthen Gunn, it weakend him.  The players made a point of congratulating Alnwick very publically after Yeovil, which shows what they thought.   Gunn''s days were numbered from that point.   The timing still requires some explanation.  We can only hope that they have a new man identified already and felt they had to get him now, before (for example) the Premiership gets underway and some other higher profile vacancy came along to tempt their man away, which would suggest a relatively high profile manager will be unveiled shortly.  [/quote]Thanking you sir… it saved me typing it all! [/quote]It''s all about the timing. It wasn''t Butters'' team and all the rest you can speculate on to your heart''s content.

You heard it here first!It''s not Sanchez and it''s not Ferguson (either of them)!
