[/quote]I was simply responding to SC''s post, who was pointing out in his own fashion that it''s an unusually longwinded way of saying Worthy Out. 

Don''t imagine that everyone (or indeed anyone) you label as a KTF thinks Worthy is perfect.  For what my opinion is worth, I totally agree that our defending of set pieces has not been good enough this season.  At Pride Park, Idiakez had us done up like a kipper.  Ditto when we get a free kick or a corner, it''s very frustrating when we waste it. We can''t just rely on Safri piledrivers.  In fairness, I would suggest (and I could be wrong) that continual changes in the line-up cannot have helped to improve our set piece play. 

If you want me to address the money issue, surely net spend equals players in minus players out?  On that basis we''ve been a selling club this season, even after spending £3m on Earnshaw (just heard he''s scored at Cardiff - Yeee-hah!!).

If Richard Balls was a striker, he''d be top scorer, because he hits the back of the net every time!

Another superb article.

Once again Richard tells it as it is and isn''t afraid to criticise the establishment.

Keep it up if you read this, as ever 10/10

He clearly has identified a niche market quite effectively and whilst I agree with most of it, you would hardly call it journalism. He says nothing new, most of it could have been taken from these boards, and his written style leaves a lot to be desired. Nevertheless, it is to hear someone whose opinions match one''s own.

Being part of the local press means that his views will carry more weight than a message board like this so hopefully he will continue in this vein and not be distracted by fortuitous, and long overdue, victories.
