Im mid fourties, iv had 4 exposures to covid (x3 jabs,x1 illness) i consider myself pretty fit and healthy given my age and think id be fine with it if i caught it again
however i know that i can still be a carrier of it, i work with general public and so my exposure to it is quite high so theres a good chamce i could be carrying it at any given time so out of respect to others that perhaps might not deal with it as well as myself i wear a mask when asked to do so 
it aint a big deal .. i mean really it isnt 
not to me anyway 

Because he's the only poster who's stated that he will refuse to wear a mask under any circumstances?
He's singled himself out in that regard, stuck his head above the parapet.

When u say reasonable ur talking about a side that hasnt been meaningfully added to in nearly 2 years now… the saying if u stand still in football ur going backwards… but what if ur already going backwards .. compared to our competition being able to add to their squads for the last 18 months to 2 years were on a landside 
as abject as it wad today and has been im not apportioning blame to rooney as it stands

Bad ?? Thats an understatement lol .. sadly ? 

Exactly my point
were a side with no recognised striker available
no surprise were struggling to create

Its missing any attacking threat which will happen when the only two centre forwards at the club (and i use that term loosly) arnt fit to start or play
any side would look pretty ordinary playing wothout something that resembles a centre forward 
lawence is a stop gap cf … and hes hit and miss at the best of times in his more natural position so its no surprise is it 
seperate note but that buchanan injury really is hurting us too, fozzy needs putting out of his and our misery bless him

conceding easily avoidable soft goals would give us a sporting chance, cant help but think defensively weve slipped a lottle into the habbits of last season
And it starts from the front where unfortunately we have quite literally nothing … sadly 

Many a player have made good careers from just that… and festy has time on his side

We have form in doing that

At least we've got some sort of form.... ?

Be ready for the booster soon

On that note … why isnt our only front man that can hold it not playing?
is he still injured/ carrying injury ? 

Should put him in a back 3 and use Williams as wing half. It’s ridiculous to ask Forsyth to play end to end 

Great post

Would there be as many moans if we had lost to Fulham, where they battered us with shots, and got a draw vs QPR?
Of course not, and the points would have been the same : 4.

I honestly reckon you’re wrong. Not because there aren’t better managers with more tactical genius, which maybe true in certain circumstances; but because Rooney has done an exceptional job inspiring these players to play as a unit, to play for him and each other, and to largely follow instructions. I sincerely doubt any other manager, we could reasonably hope to get, could have done that. 
Last night was a tough one, player for player they had more than we have, but we ran them close for half the game. Against Bournemouth and Fulham our eager 2 litre 4 cylinder beat the odds against those with 6 cylinders and another 1000cc. 
I do want to see how we shape up against more pedestrian opponents but I remain convinced that Rooney is doing a great job with what he has AND I retain considerable  confidence that the young guns in our team are going to get better as individuals.
Bird, Knight, Ebosele, Thomson, Buchanan, Watson … The oldest is 21 … Think about it and then think who understands their game and potential better than anyone.  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Like a challenge .. were certainly that alright lol 

Frustrating?  Late?
Don't give me that!  That ain't frustrating!  That ain't late!  Jeez!
 
You want frustratingly late?  I'll give you frustratingly late...

Erm... we are over it now, right?   ?‍♂️
It is ok to joke about it now, yeah?  ?‍♂️
Oh c'mon.  It's been 7 years now!
And let's face it... It all turned out ok in the end!  ?
Let's hug!
