He did a gig for a big bank Xmas party about 30 years ago that my Dad went to. Dad wasn't looking forward to it as Bob had fallen out of fashion due to the rise of alternative comedians like Ben Elton etc.
Bob smashed it out the park and had the audience in the palm of his hands. Dad said he had watched a master at work. |

Well I watched House of Dynamite the new Kathryn Bigalow film about a nuclear strike on America.
The whole premise is based on the US failing to immediately detect a nuclear launch from somewhere in the Pacific region (really!). Get past that and its OK, but not sure I get the hype. |

To me the squad is starting to look increasingly disjointed. We have some great technical players such as Madsen, Chair, Vale etc. Then on the other hand we have players who look uncomfortable on the ball and can't pass such as Varane, Dunne, Field etc.
We look like a squad without a clear identity. |

We've hot two players in key areas, GK and CB, neither of whom are wanted by the club, and will be gone in 8 months, yet are both playing a lot of games.
Great planning. |

Every time that ball goes in the box my heart is in my mouth, Nardi appears welded to his goal line.
Opposition have clearly done their homework on him and he is costing us points big time.
I know some will say defensively we should be better, but it must be a nightmare defending in front of him. I mean not claiming a ball in your own 6 yard box!
Maybe Hamer should have a go? |

Wrong again. I queried why he was dropped back into CM when Madsen was taken off. Not why he was brought on at HT.
Get it right sunshine. |

This is very reminiscent of the Millwall game. Derby with great big lumps at the back, so we swing in deep crosses time and again in hope rather than any accuracy.
No game craft yet again to unlock them. A very stinky performance again. |

More balanced with RND back in at LB. Thankfully JS appears to have realised that pace isn't necessarily a bad thing with Mbengue and Burrell both starting again.
Bench looks strong.
Madsen must be top of the fitness charts as well as he plays every game. Or could it be we don't have someone who can replace him so he can have a rest?
Makes a bit of a mockery of the idea players can't play a three game week. |

Agree. Yet somehow Kolli rarely plays yet Frey does. I mean come on!
Morgan sits on the bench despite just making the England U20 squad. Something the club was very happy to let everyone know about.
Esquadinha sometimes makes the bench despite only one fit LB at the club.
No CBs on the bench, rather 35yo Cook whom CN clearly didn't want.
CN stated on more than one occasion its about developing our own talent. So far I'd say its actually going backwards under him.
There appears to be very little joined up thinking, or has JS just done a Warburton and said 'none are good enough'?
Just a note on Morgan, he was by far the best player in the final and to good for that level. Even more of a waste as he can't do any worse than Varane at the moment. |

Agree. Interested to know who arranges the loans, if anyone. |

Yep, he'll be off in the summer.
Probably the biggest disappointment this season has been the lack of game time for any of the youngsters (bar Plymouth) this season.
I thought CN was all into developing players and then selling them? Can't really do that if you don't play them or send them out on 2-bit loans. Kolli, Morgan, Tuck, Sutton the list goes on. Poor from the club.
The whole Kolli thing shows a distinct lack of class from both sides by people who should show a bit of maturity with the young player caught in the middle. |
