    Not even in my worst nightmares did I think we could find a coach worse than Wagner but some how we have managed it !

    Having read the other thread with interest I thought I’d start an alternative. Mine was that F.A. Cup game at the old West Ham ground, five thousand supporters crammed in with the only access a tiny staircase, another Hillsborough waiting happen. Plus being a tad short I could only see about a quarter of the pitch.

    Away trip to Old Trafford in the snow. Never got there. We got as far as the Peak District on Club Canary. Got out, had a snowball fight and headed home again. Heard on the radio we’d lost.

    I was at the 6-0 defeat at Maine Rd, went on the football special, as we were corralled from the buses to the ground a police horse stood on my foot, funny the things you remember from away day trips 😀.........

    Ah Clive Baker. He was 1,75 m but seemed much smaller that day.

    Was there too. People might have died in the half time crush in the tunnel under the stand. Pushing from both ends.  Shouting and panic. I will never forget it. Awful experience.

    Best time of year to change head coach! 
    New broom and plenty to chose from, whole transfer window and pre season ahead. Though appointee probably already sounded out. It seems very measured from Knapper, just waiting for the opportune moment for Wagner to fail having already pulled the rug from under him in.

    Oh for the times when there was only Dean Smith available cos he’d been sacked.

    I don’t envy Wagner this call. Could well get turned over resting key players.

    I’d try to get ahead in the game playing our strongest side then sub early and hold out for the draw / win whilst knowing developments elsewhere.  If someone gets injured it’s hardly his fault but starting with a weakened team and it goes pear shaped would be catastrophic failure of historic proportions.

    Gibbs getting an injury after about 10 seconds was unlucky though. He would have brought running and energy. 

    This was the problem and really unlucky. Hope it’s not serious. Without anyone to do the running up top to create space for our midfield the system collapses. 
    Some of our football was sublime and in the scheme of things we are a point nearer and a game less to the target.

    It's the rules. He's a professional player playing for the opposing team. He'd be letting his team down if he didn't make sure the ref was aware. Sure, it's gamesmanship, but gamesmanship is part of football and has been for as long as i can remember.

    I'm afraid the failure was Sainz kicking out pointlessly and giving the opportunity to send him off.

    If you can see him kicking out you’ve got better eyesight than me!
