There will always be successes and failures.
Galbraith is the stand out.
I think Inoussa and Benson need more match time.
Stamenic could be a massive signing if used properly and that means playing Galbraith and Franco, that seems the best mix in midfield. Personally I'd start with Inoussa and benson too, give them a full game and see what happens. If things are going well I'd take the worst midfielder of and try Idah AND Vipotnik together. |

Cardiff will survive because the WRI now owns them, if market forces were allowed then Cardiff would already cease to exist. Cardiff being the largets city in Wales, it disproves the rest of your post.
All clubs need is a money man willing to dig deep.
Now the size of the towns. do I need to point out to you that it's the number of people who turn out to watch that matters which is why towns with smaller populations than Swansea get bigger football crowds. |

If you're talking about Lewis Moody, he's been all over the news, I think he wants it talked about to bring it to the attention of the masses. Raising awareness they call it. |

Hold on now, Neville is voicing his opiniin about people, some of those people voice their opinion about him, surely it's all just free speech?
People disagree with Neville, please explain why it's snowflakery but Neville's views are, assumingly, perfectly fine by you?
It's the funny thing about fre speech, we all get to have our opinions and if what you say about snowflakes is right then doesn't that make you a snowflake for saying it? Or is the irony lost on you? |

In 1972 when I started going the average was just above 6k but declining. Most clubs attendances were a hadow of todays crowds, in 1981 the average in the first division was between 18-19k with Villa getting about 26k. Crowds declind badly during the hooligan era.
14k regularly was a wet dream in the 90's for us. |

They keep sending me appointments for covid but I refuse now. I think I had covid last week actually and it wasn't even as bad as the flu.
Now the statins, I had a few bad blood tests, the doctor suspected it was my liver and ordered another round of liver related tests, I didn't wait for bad news though, I went straight on a diet and stopped taking the statins because it say on the leaflet they can affect the liver. Before the tests I'd lost nearly a stone and had nearly 4 weeks without statins and my tests came back good. I still haven't told my gp I stopped taking them mind because I'm certain they'll be unhappy. I wasn't even put on them because my cholesterol was high, it was a "precaution" because of a family history. |

The dangers of sport tun deeper than physical injuries like broken limbs. All the head contacts have done invisible damage that only manifests itself years later. Gpotta feel sorry for the guy, it is an awful disease.
Good luck Lewis, and to your family. |

Well when officials get it wrong and it affects the game it needs to be said. The goal at Birmingham was NOT offside.
Then there's the corner that led to Leicesters first goal, it should have been retaken because the ball was outsode the lines, it looked off the pitch from what I've seen.
The so called 2 clear penalties are a matter of opinion, I think one was and the ither I'm not so sure.
Our points tally maybe should be more and it's because of some dodgy reffing AND because we have been so slow across the pitch and Sheehan has for some reason turned a tad negative and cautious.
This squad could do better. |

Oh get real, there are a lot of examples, a lot more than 3. All of them, Labour, Tory, Libdem and considering they've only been around a short while, reform have a lotof dubious stories hanging over them. Reforms list is quite umpressive for their short existence, they have had to kick a lot out. |

Oh I'm anti monarchy. I'd go federal tomorrow if I had the power to make it happen. I'd split England up into regions with the devolved nations also being regions of a federal UK. I'd do away with ALL capital cities and have a regional government dropped slap bang in the middle of every region with there being a UK government slap bang in the middle of the Uk that is it's own little town, a block of flats for regional representatives, a modern government building with Uk armed forces providing security. |

I agree. My comment about expecting to lose was more because of Shingles post.
I think we are (on paper) good enough quality to be pushing the play offs but yes, we seem stuck in second. My concern is more that maybe Sheehan is feeling the pressure more because he now is where the buck stops. It was easier for him when he was just the caretaker but now he is the gaffer and the owners will be expecting more after backing him a lot more heavily than most of us expected, is he already feeling pressure (even if they haven't said anything) and as a result he's second guessing himself, over thinking and/or being too cautious? |

I'd live to know if anybody thought Cullen did well today? What did he do? is it worse that while I think Stamenic was poor, Cullen was largely anonymous?
I agree about Stamenic, he's the muscle not the designer, Galbraith is the designer. The midfield three today did very little of any note.
If the thinking today was we're going to get beaten anyway so play a weakened team then I'd question the mentality? We're at home, we have signifucantly strengthened the squad and we should be trying to win our home games, not surrendering before kick off. I really can't see that being the reason. Surely you rest your best players against the weaker teams? |

I think King Charles would stand up for the country and maybe William would but after they go, who knows.
If a tyrant managed to get control though, the King orwhoever is monarch would probably find themselves "guests" of the tyrant wih the threat if their family being executed if they spoke out.
On a different note, maybe this country needs an "enlightened dictator" becaue we aren't doing so well with a demicracy. |

I'd put the away fans in the North West and move the singing/standing section around so behind the goals was split between home and away. |

Starting from here, Stamenic was indeed the problem, he was too deep, too negative and slow. He wasn't the only problem, Ronald did nothing at all first half and should have been subbed biut it was Eom who went off and he'd looked dangerous down the left to the point they'd doubled up on him.
We were too busy pfaffing around at the back again, there was no pace, no urgency and we gave them too much tiome for the first goal, great strike thou. Their second was an even better strike but he had 3 defensers around him and nibody got in his way, why not>
Key ius a terrible defender, he did ok first half but was missing for the first and Cabago was wandering across ti the left with Burgess, key was drawn inside and nobody spoke, nobody shouted mark your man, spare man out wide and it fell to James. BANG.
All in all ot was a very poor performance against a team that were decent but not great we should have done better. Why did he rest Galbraith because we had no one pulling the strings, all we had was Stamenic doing a poor impersonation of Grimes, dropping in too close to our centre backs and being overly negative.
Sheehan is over thinking things, pick our strngest team and go for it. We look a poor team right now but on paper we are stronger than last season when we were very good for 9 out of 11 games under him with what most if surely agree was a weaker squad? |

Maybe you should comment on the stuff you have knowledge and experience of then? Because it usually seems that your posts get pulled up for being wrong, factually wrong that is.
If you care so much then do something, someone said that to me once. |
