  1. 8 goals conceded in 3 games. We're going nowhere with this back 5.
  2. Because of the run we've been on and the magic Carrick has sewn, people forget the players we actually have in this squad & team. None of the back 5 is good enough for premier league football. Some of them are not good enough for top half championship football. Howson is old. Hackney is a rookie. We have no defenders on the bench that can challenge our starting XI for a place. Let's hope for a response from the team in the next game.
  3. I think that's what sets good teams apart, they get something even when they play poorly. Come on the filthy mackems tonight. Mogga to do us proud.
  4. Have you seen it on the telly? Both pundits said "keeper has to do better there". You'd be disappointed if you let that in for the Kings Arms XI on a Sunday morning.
  5. If you can't see that he's a liability then you need this link: www.specsavers.co.uk
  6. Anyone think Ivan Tony will make an appearance? Or perhaps any other surprise names?
  7. I just want to call out a couple of posters saying Steffan saved us. He made one save, he knew absolutely nothing about it, it hit him and came back out luckily to our player who turned it behind for a corner. He is a liability, he 100% should have saved their goal - I'd have saved it for Christ's sake.
  8. Look at the bright side, we gained a point from a game where we were by far second best. Onto Preston on Saturday, would be nice if the mackems could do us a favour tomorrow.
  9. Not blaming the keeper? It went right through him. He's a bloody liability.
  10. Middlesbrough 2-1 Bolton 29th February 2004.
  11. We leak goals in the championship, if we went into the Premier League with that back 5 we'd be torn to shreds every week (see the Brighton game). I don't believe Fry or Lenihan are good enough. McGree is nowhere near Prem level, but he is an improving player and has potential to get to that level. Hackney could make the step up, again and improving player with huge potential. Barlasser - are you having a laugh? Akpom has all the attributes, should be able to play at that level. Giles (if we sign him) Hackney and Akpom are the only players I'd have confidence in bei
  12. When we're promoted we're going to need at least one really top class CB, plus someone to replace Howson next to Hackney.
  13. I couldn't believe some of the teams in the championship in the 97/98 season. Madness to think where those clubs are today.
  14. Just randomly YouTube started putting them in my recommendations and wow they are a blast from the past. 96/97 That Season 98/99 (The Merson year) 03/04 Trophy virgins no more Enjoy.
  15. Surely Carrick will look at the career path of Frank Lampard, or even someone like Nathan Jones and see leaving a successful Championship squad to join a Premier League side on the slide is a bad move. If he gets us promoted, has the backing of Gibson and could do a Graham Potter at Brighton type job then he knows the big seat at Old Trafford awaits once Ten Hag leaves or is fired. And let's be honest, we all know that's the job he wants.
  16. Absolutely no excuse for that starting XI. How can we expect to win games with 6/7 defensive players on the pitch? Crooks is a cart horse, a league one plodder. Howson looks every bit his age. Watmore is a league one footballer. We made Coventry look a good team. Absolutely no excuses, Wilder can *** off.
  17. I'd drive him there for free. Bielsa please, if you weren't impressed with his Leeds sides in the Champo you weren't watching them. 100% commitment.
  18. Chowdry looked well off the pace, probably not match fit at this stage though. 60 grand a week for a champo player?
  19. I can see another draw here. I just hope to God we don't see Watmore in the starting XI.
  20. Worst manager appointment in my life time (Agnew apart). Make no mistake, we're heading to League One with the mackems.
  21. If only we had a proper sized goalkeeper in the 1997 FA Cup final. If only we turned out a side of kids at Blackburn If only we had defended for the last 10 minutes in the 97 League Cup final instead of going for a second. If only we'd had that penalty for the push on Viduka in the UEFA Cup final If only we'd replaced McClaren with Ottmar Hitzfeld If only we'd given Southgate the season to get us back up, if only we'd never appointed Strachan If only we'd given Mowbray the money If only Vossen's shot had it the net at Wembley and not the post If only we'd backed
  22. And absolutely under no circumstances must wide players be bought or allowed near the match day squad. You know who plays wide in this team? Center backs and central midfielders (preferably defensive).

    They are remarkably bland, I can't believe how popular they are.
