  1. Brown has had discussions with Sheff Wed over taking Reynolds on loan next season. He thinks Dave Jones may think Reynolds is not tall enough to play CH in the Championship. His wages have also rocketed due to their promotion and Brown believes they may wish to put him on loan so they get some money back on him. Although if that's the case... why not just sell him?
  2. I think no matter who takes it, they've got a shit load of restructuring to do and that could take a couple of transfer windows... will they get the time and the money? They may also not be able to get top dollar for those they require to be binned due to the chronic performances this season... it's a tough job for whoever takes it. As I said re Martinez, I don't think he's a bad manager just think the jury should still be out, but if he takes the Liverpool job it's sad to say but his rep could go south rather quickly. Big gamble for club and manager at this stage I'd say.
  3. Just the use of "Dream Team". Thought you were being ironic. I agree about Clarke, just think you took it a tad far there though.
  4. Aston Villa are supposedly going for Solskjaer, Martinez given permission to talk to Liverpool (apologies if that's old)
  5. Semantics. I'd say losing 9 on the bounce is a collective pumping. No offence mate, but that sounds like an excuse offered up by the man in charge of The Dons.
  6. Deary me man... 9 defeats on the bounce: and then... one victory in 13 In anyone's book that is shite. They're not a recently promoted club, and i appreciate the lack of funds etc but that is not the sign of a great manager. Again, turn their season around and ask yourself if you'd be saying the same thing. Or even better... ask yourself if you'd be saying the same thing if it it happened to be the Dons he had those runs managing. Those runs prove his side has been more abysmal than anything else and he's the manager, that falls at his feet.
  7. If you don't have the players to play your system effectively, you use a system that suits the players at your disposal. Anything else is pigheaded stubborness that could have seen his team relegated.
  8. Don't really agree with the sentiment of this to be honest. His team were getting pumped every week for a long, long time and while it is remarkable they survived with a great run at the end of the season, it took him far too long to realise what his best side was and far more importantly, a very long time to realise what shape suits his side. I certainly don't think he's necessarily a bad manager per se, but I certainly don't think he's as great a manager as some make out. A very good manager would have halted their awful run of form way before he did. Also, had their season been reversed and they'd picked up the majority of their points in the first half of the season instead of the second, there isn't a chance he'd be high up that list. In fact, he may not even be on it at all.
  9. Why on earth wouldn't you want Ancellotti?
  10. Liverpool fan on TV outside Anfield: "King Kenny.... problem is you should never go back" "Is there a manager you'd like to see take the job?" "rafa"
  11. Milsom wants to leave. A deal was in place for him to leave in January and he would have done so if it wasn't for his injury. I'd imagine if he can prove his fitness in the summer, he'll likely take a deal with a championship club. We've been saying for years we're just a few players away from being a decent side but it rarely comes to fruition. The fact it hasn't been the worst or the most dispiriting in recent memory is neither here nor there. It was another dreadful season, dress it up how you like but people aren't daft and will see it for what it was - dismal.
  12. Yeah, not many chances. Nicholas had one cleared off the line in the first half and Gillhaus hit the side netting in the second but not much else happened. Don't remember Snelders making a save other than rogan's pen.
  13. Nerves rather than pessimism I'd say, he took it rather superbly though
  14. Same, the bounce for Theo's save is up there in "Greatest Ever Bounce" and it abruptly ended as everyone realised our next taker happened to be big Irvine...
  15. With the huns appeal of the transfer embargo and fine coming up on Wed, the SFA have named the panel, but probably of more relevance is that the findings of the original panel were that only "match fixing was worse" and termination of their SFA membership was discussed but ultimately decided that was too harsh. They found that by avoiding the PAYE and other dues, the huns saved themselves £1.1m a month from August of last year onwards. Given this, surely there is not a hope in hell of them getting any sort of result on Wednesday?
  16. Danny Swanson is our top target, supposedly. Out of contract with the Jutes.
  17. Spiers is just another hun apologist, shiting it because if they go out of business his employment chances and possibilities greatly diminish. He said something last night like "this great institution is now suffering for the sins of it's fathers"... which is a bit of a contradiction in my book. Why do they keep peddling this "great institution" shite? They're a fucking hideous organisation from top to bottom who've been given a helping hand from just about every organisation going.
  18. That utter cretin Mark Dingwall is on Scotland Tonight this evening. He is the one who encouraged his fellow vermin to bombard Bill Miller with abusive emails. I wonder if that's going to be raised tonight.
  19. Emre has previous for that sort of shit. Got what's been coming to him for ages.
  20. Spot your mistake. But as rocket said... Grow up.
  21. Yip! Brilliant match. Diego Milito is superb.
  22. Forrest's a good player.
