We might even sneak into 8th place at this rate

 

Id have to see it again. I saw 1 replay where I thought he won the ball, but his foot was high. FCD is a bit of a liability with rash challenges - I don't think he's dirty, just rash and naive.

 

It's the kind of challenge that would have been unworthy of comment 20 years ago but is now often seen as endangering an opponent, even if you win the ball.

 

Some years ago we thought we might have a "you score X we'll score X+1" side...looks like it might finally have arrived! It'll make for an interesting, not to mention nerve-wracking, season!

It really is good to see a come-from-behind win as well.

RCB

 

Spot on Dave…that was as good as it gets for the winners! ( and the neutral )

 

He looked comfortable on the ball.
A couple of times he seemed to touch it too far in front of him, their lads eyes lit up and went for it and Songo’o just played a simple pass round him.
Also a couple of belting tackles. He just stood there like a wall.

 

This is disappointing, I thought he looked good (even though his shooting was all over the place). Feels like a bit of a foolish move knowing his Injury history and the fact Sparks said we won’t be taking players with injury problems, I hope he isn’t out for too long.

 

He had a go at their RB in particular. I thought it was a bit harsh even though Vernam tore him a new one at times. To be fair to the lad I think it was their tactics and obsession with our right side that left them so open and vulnerable on our left.

What an interview Brian. Sorry Nigel.

 

Let's see if it works in terms of motivating his players. Curle tried it the other night, publicly slating his players and saying if they don't want to play for Oldham they should do one and go and play elsewhere. Looking at their result today, not sure it had the desired effect....

 

That's pretty damning assessment of his teams defensive attributes today - particularly Hewitt and Rawson! Not sure it's a great idea to be quite as public about certain individuals.

 

Jesus. I've never seen that level of 'digging out' before. He's calling into question the full backs integrity. I'd be fuming if I was the right back.

 

Crawley FC. Charm school for managers.

 

He’s been an absolute bellend post match on both interviews. Their forum is 50% he did right and 50% it’s his fault anyway for not protecting the right back, especially as we targeted him!

A decent manager should never do that.Totally and utterly unprofessional imho.

 

What an ignorant Twit….

Not fit to manage 11 piss heads playing for the Nincompoop Arms

 

Ages at Burton, firefighting last year so zero expectations or pressure. They've spent a lot of money this year and this brings with it high expectations. For the first time in ages hes got pressure on him to perform. Hes already cracked. Its a long season

 

But then you get some managers who don’t criticise players enough even though fans can see they’re gash. Eg. Stuart and BRE

 

Unfortunately BJ is far too visible, unlike a yeti

One is a large, bipedial ape-like creature that is covered with white hair,

The other is a mythical creature.

 

Tnx Mike

Was she….?
