  1. I only drink coffee mate I don’t like tea never have, I have Miele built in coffee maker grinds the beans, high pressure steam for heating and frothing milk and dispenses hot water for making tea for the ladies
  2. Let’s hope there’s a forthcoming book on how the players busted a gut and avoided this season’s drop.
  3. for a fiver if you didn’t like them you could use them for washing the car.
  4. That sums up our club the owners, directors, players, and managers, have let the only consistent and good thing down which is the supporters.
  5. Haf Mike’s just tangoed you mate. I’ve had a pair of his orange Puma shoes in fairness a mistake our courses get to muddy for bright shoes in reality. But never had a Mulberry handbag.
  6. Like in cricket and tennis. I’ve always maintained that VAR would be a problem and have always favoured on field refereeing decisions to stand, VAR has got things right and as also got things wrong, but my big problem is VAR is inconsistent when it comes to reviewing incidents which has made it not an even playing field. I would get rid of it instead they try to improve it but how do you improve something that is always going to rely on human input.
  7. I was hoping the best pairing was him and Godfrey instead of Keane, but who ever it is Frank needs to try and play them if available for the last 6 games, we need every bit of help we can muster.
  8. Agreed the pilot as been consistently good the same as Pooky the Thai lass, John’s been very complimentary about her food and I think I’m right in saying as a young chef in Australia his forte was Thai food or version of.
  9. That’s very interesting and surprising, when he played did you notice what partners he had most success with.
  10. I know mate he had a shocker and in fairness he scraped through last week, I’m not going to his restaurant now, I’m going with you to the the young Indian girls, love a good curry. Sarah does look sophisticated and classy I must admit, but now I’ve got a vision of you sat in the lounge bollock naked watching master chef that’s put me right off my food
  11. Keep pushing mate, the one positive over Steve that you have John is he won’t be needing a haircut Apologies Steve just trying to keep John’s spirits up
  12. Well we might look bright in the championship but not the place I want to be, very dark days in deed.
  13. That’s more of an indictment of how bad we are they lost their next game to Norwich thank fuck or we would be conceding we are down now, sacking Dyche has proved to be the best decision they made this season. When you sack a manager make sure the next one is capable of doing better, Burnley and Leeds have been lucky and looks like they got their decisions right, as the norm from Moshiri again we haven’t. Not saying Lampard isn’t the right man for us at the right time he would be, but on this occasion he was the wrong man at the wrong time. And there’s nothing more I can really add to that that was my opinion when he was announced and nothings happened to change that.
  14. Lampard has had long enough to change mentality and tactics and find away to win but we haven’t seen that, amazingly Burnley sack their manager immediate improvement like light and day, Leeds sack their manager again immediate improvement, we sack our manager and no improvement in 12 league games, it’s ridiculous to blame Rafa for what’s happening now that’s burying your head in sand and not accepting the reality that Lampard hasn’t done what he was brought here to do. Not wrong to sack Rafa poor decision to give the job to a manager with very little experience and none in what fighting a relegation battle takes, but that’s the fault of Moshiri who obviously thought we have 18 games left we are 4 or 5 points clear of a relegation spot, he took a gamble and he lost and supporters are giving him away out by blaming Rafa, never heard so much bollocks in my life, stop being a victim and face the fact Lampard wasn’t the man for where we were. And Moshiri is a complete disaster for this club.
  15. We need to win one of our away games with our GD we may need 39 points if it’s us or Burnley for 17th, but every game that goes by where we don’t get points means we are running out of time to bridge the gap, to base our future on Watford, Palace, and Brentford as the only must win games is relegation thinking, all our games must be viewed as must win games and it has to start Sunday with Chelsea if we lose that and Burnley win that’s us done maybe not mathematically but definitely mentally.
  16. I’m getting a bit pissed off now with people trying to say I’m defending Rafa, what I’m saying is Lampard hasn’t improved us as in our position it’s got worse, unfortunately not my fault look at the league table it’s a fact, whether we look better or the players are happier means jack shit if that doesn’t transpire into wins and points, and I would disagree with the players looking happier, DCL, Richarlison, Doucoure, Allan, Keane, Pickford, all look miserable as fuck, I haven’t seen many playing with a smile on there face for a long time. We aren’t playing like a team that’s improved we are playing with fear and lack of confidence, fear in our defending and lack of confidence in our attempts at goal. If people are still happy to be relegated because Lampard’s better than Rafa then crack on, but I’m not happy Rafa was sacked to bring in a manager who would turn our season round, but it hasn’t worked and not saying we shouldn’t have sacked Rafa, I’m saying we shouldn’t have given the job to Lampard in the situation we were in his lack of experience meant the job was above his ability and experience, I said it when he was given the job and sadly it’s looking that way.
  17. Yes they are but our away game to Watford has banana skin all over it, with our away record I believe we have a much better chance of beating Chelsea at home than Watford away.
  18. Chelsea are definitely beatable we just have to approach the game with a good game plan and no fear, this is a must win game otherwise we risk the team’s above us creating a gap of 5 points, and with only 5 games remaining I don’t see us clawing it back.
  19. An average of someone’s performance isn’t small sections of their total it’s from the beginning till the end, if Lampard carries on at his rate we will be down, he was 3-4 points away from a relegation spot with 2-3 games in hand and better goal difference than the 3 team’s in the relegation spot, now we are in a relegation spot 2 points from safety with one game in hand and a poorer GD now than Burnley that means in reality we are 3 points behind them from safety, that isn’t an improvement no matter how you try to dress it up. He’s got 6 games to improve his stats,10 points from a possible 36 is still relegation form over a season so no improvement, and definitely not the improvement many believed would happen. Not either managers fault we have poor striker’s and even poorer central defenders not down to them, Rafa lost his job no problem with that no one will ever know if he stayed what would have happened so not even worth getting into that argument, Lampard comes in and we have lost ground on the team’s around us instead of improving our position in the league it has deteriorated that can not be classed as an improvement.
  20. Rafa amassed a point a game regardless of beginning middle or end of his tenure that is his average, and Frank less than a point a game that his is average, results haven’t improved hopefully they do in the last 6 games because if he only takes 5 points from his next 6 games which he is averaging we go down.
  21. I think you will find I said the same thing, that Moshiri not only had interfered with the signing of players he also chose the managers against the opinions of his DoF. For me this team is Moshiri’s team not just in ownership in everything we see, it’s the play thing of Moshiri and Usmanov to have some fun and try to make a successful team where they made all the decisions, what they have proved is that money doesn’t buy you success when you haven’t got a clue what you’re doing.
  22. I’m only talking about the league Steve staying up is the only thing of interest to me this season. Rafa 19 games 19 points GD -9 as I said no where near good enough so not defending him, Lampard 12 games 10 points GD -12 no improvement no better not good enough Now I can understand the hatred towards Rafa because of his past, and I can understand why Lampard is getting an easier time from the same people who got what they wanted with Rafa out, they would look pretty silly wanting what they protested for to be removed, so they’ve reluctantly forced themselves to accept what’s happening, yes Rafa was shit and Lampard is no improvement.
