In our defense, we had 5 in less than 18 months when the lunatics were running the asylum before Warnock. Take those out and we're knocking on the door of the playoffs. |

This brought a tear to my eye. Fantastic stuff. I'm really proud of that, as the club should be and Kieran himself of course. |

So Dunne is only able to set an acceptable standard within a match when he's playing well?
Surely that's the entire point of a captain or any hierarchical structure within the squad. We constantly hear and talk about the squad badly missing leaders, then our captain acts like one and he gets criticised too?
In any case given that Madsen is now being anointed as Platini / Zidane mk ii after one decent game (or two thirds ish of one anyway) perhaps the bollocking from his captain is exactly what he needs in order for him to show for the ball, pass it forwards and occasionally threaten the opposition with a tackle. |

Just to point out we're dropping an estimated £15.8m loss off the 3 year rolling P&S cycle this year. Last year's estimated P&S loss was £9.3m. That would give us an allowable loss of £17m this year to comply with the rules... or an additional loss of £7.5m more than our last published one. That's BEFORE the Eze money is accounted for.
I know it's not quite as simple as that but we HAVE lost a massive spending year off of that three year cycle which must create P&S headroom. I think it's conceivable that transfer business to date has been done upon that basis and we haven't yet invested any Eze money.
Also to point out that Eze money only appears on the accounts for that three year period... After that point it's just cash that can't be reinvested. They have a duty to invest it on the squad on players whose values are likely to ascend. It's the entire strategy. [Post edited 1 Sep 14:35]

Having read this thread before going to sleep last night I dreamt that I caught the ball... away at Newcastle! No idea how the bloody hell it got all the way up to Everest base camp levels above the sea but I assume it must have been one of our efforts on goal rather than theirs. |

Without a doubt the cringiest thread I've ever seen on here.
If his name weren't Gary I'd assume he were a teenager in his bedroom, furiously masturbating over all the rage he's trolled. But given his name is Gary, he must be at least 40/50. Very sad really. [Post edited 1 Sep 9:10]

What's the word behind the censorship here? Counts? Chants?
But yeah sure, it's all of us that are 'uneducated'. |

You posted this in another thread tonight:
"The boy done good but defensively it was real poor from Caharlyon.
Overall he did a good 20 miuntes....fair play to him."
Think you might want to enquire about a refund on all that education you've received. |

I don’t want to get too excited too soon or heap pressure on the lad but after many, many, many false dawns Kone looks like the real deal to me from the early signs. Whisper it quietly but have we finally got an effing striker? |

I really don’t think anyone has ever argued the lad doesn’t have ability; it’s there for all to see and always has been. As a few others have pointed out, it’s his lack of physicality and his lack of consistency they gets him the stick. He looks ok to good when the game suits him. When we’re doing well for possession and territory. He does little to nothing to influence those things though.
He’s been labelled a luxury by many and though he had a decent game today, that’s kind of the bare minimum for a central midfielder in a 2 man midfield in the Championship. If that becomes his standard and he can improve upon it he’ll win people around.
I’m still very worried about that central midfield personally. It was still dominated for well over half the game today, at home, against a promoted team.
I thought most of the team seemed to run out of gas after 35 minutes or so to be honest so maybe that’s just as much to blame as the players in the midfield. Either way we need to find a way to win that midfield battle with a modicum of consistency if we’re going to have a remotely comfortable season. If you think Madsen is the answer to that after today Gazza that’s up to you. I’m no more sold personally. Maybe I’m just ‘uneducated’ though. [Post edited 30 Aug 21:26]

I absolutely haven’t in any way. I think Steve has in his post rather than me. It was actually my entire point. |

How many failed coaches would it take until we (by we I mean you) consider it might not be the coach that’s the root cause of our lack of success? |
