  1. Kim Dotcom. Lucky that he isn't in a US prison. They wanted him extradited from NZ for any number of crimes. The NZ courts agreed but an appeal reversed the verdict. But he spent time in a NZ prison. Look him up Jools. Would you rather beieve him or Jonathan Van Tamm? The people you mix with are very shady. Have you any pictures of yourself with Crispin Blunt?
  2. But he took £5K from Russia Today. Lower than a snake's belly.
  3. David Starkey, twice a losing Conservative candidate.
  4. It is normally accepted that 10 or under is good. 14 is respectable. But it does depend on the course and age of the golfer.
  5. What do you know about him? Nothing. You are desperate to find something to post.
  6. Hey Jools. Here is how competent your dumbass mate is. "The whole world is exploding. You know I was very honored — Victor Orbán, did anyone ever hear of him?" Trump asked his crowd of supporters earlier this week. "He's probably one of the strongest leaders anywhere in the world. Right? He's the leader of Turkey."
  7. George Swindin was a funny one. I went in hospital as he was appointed and he left as I came out in 1962.
  8. I don't think he has been as bad a s many make out but I also don't think he has been as good as some say. He, IMO, looks nervous with the ball at his feet. My point is, if he and Dufty are our options, why are we playing the ball through them so so much? We need that sitting CDM who is comfortable on the ball. Not only does that relieve the CBs, it also meand Sara plays further up.
  9. Our owners are not above criticsm. While they appear the least wealthiest at our level, they have overseen 5 EPL promotions in the last 20 years. So that is far better than virtually any club outside of the top dozen or so. But they have also seen us relegated as many times. And they have had eleven coaches in that time, not including caretakers. Obviously during that period we have had DoFs as well. Personally, I don't believe they have the nous to run the football side and have to rely on others to help them make decisions. And that is where the supporters come in. I am not proposing anarchy, but I think Delia needs to recognise that fans do know football (some may disagree). And they recognise, not just because of results, when things are not right. And I sense many do recognise things are wrong. While not diminishing the effect of injuries, our performance, not results, have gone from dynamic, forward, attacking play to boring, mistake ridden, passing for passing sake football. And theboard have to act. Not just sacking a coach but, as fans themselves, telling him he is wrong. They are the custodians right now and have a duty. I don't advocate them picking the team but surely telling Wagner it looks like he is getting it wrong isn't interfering. And if he doesn't like it, then he moves on.
  10. The sight of our free kick on the halfway line being passed to Long tells me so much about us at the moment. Obviously we are easy to mark. If we couldn't find a forward player then are they not moving or incapable of finding space. And that the players having the most touches, Duffy and Gibson, do not have the skill to find a player who is more than five yards away. The sight of Kenny and Sara picking up the ball in our area while our CBs go wide is a tactic Pep might employ, but surely not us with players obviously less skillful. Whatever the opinion of Idah, he clearly is not a target player. His control is 50/50. And he isn't a poacher. So why have wingers? Crosses into the box, which are at best hit and hope, are not creating chances. But last night it was difficult to blame the players. I couldn't particularly say they played badly. Yes, some were responsible such as Dimi's awful mistake and Onel's blind alley running. But Boro had a much better tactic. They assumed we would make errors at some stage and waited. But when they attacked, such as their 2nd goal, they often outnumbered us. I am fed up saying we are wasting Sara's talent so deep in the pitch. We need a player bringing it out to him. His booking showed he isn't great at tackling. We brought in Forshaw for what? So I am firmly pointing the finger at Wagner. His tactics are wrong. Surely with the players available, we should make the tactics suit the players. Its easy to blame the defence and of course they are culpable. But its normally midfield where a game is won or lost. So why not 3 at the back and five in midfield? That way some of our player's abilities would be better suited. Dimi and Stacey love to attack but aren't the best of defenders. Take some of the defending away from them.Gabriel can score a lot of goals at this level so get him forward. Our wingers crossing is awful so take them out.

  11. I think MOTM is a rollover. Hard to tell from the TV but what was the mood of the crowd at the end?
  12. He has to go. We have some ability in that squad. We need to play players in their proper positions and not pick players on reputation.
  13. They had four up in that attack. And they could have sat back but didn't. We attack with nothing.
  14. Someone on the bench had his comics out checking who has to stand where and who hasn't had a gel.
