You could put Kevin de Bruyne in our midfield, it wouldn't make a difference because Warne actively bypasses the midfield. 

It's a tactical choice that is currently, and will continue to, cost us points.

True. Bird is getting some pelters I see. He wasn’t good tonight, but it is beyond my energy tonight to explain how difficult it must be for anyone to play in the middle third of the park under Warne. 

The team are not coached to have any control. Another midfielder will not help if Warne continues to employ the tactics he wants us to play football.

I say football. It’s pinball. Players must be being encouraged to move it as forward as quickly as possible, taking no more than 3 touches. Chaotic, gas out type football.

I thought we might go up with our squad automatically, even with him in charge. I am beginning to think not.

Tommy Warne. Sure plays a crap pinball.

I'm going to be a bit of a Debbie Downer about tonight. They're a pretty young, athletic team. That, as we've seen with Peterborough, is the thing we struggle with the most. Definitely is a cause for concern for me.

I could offer a straight swop for a different old cow, and hope the novelty of a new set of udders to milk lessens the complaining said cows make?

You’re not selling it mate 😂. Played Tapestry in full on Sunday morning whilst preparing a roast. 

Dejphon Chansiri, Alex Turner, Sid James, Walkley Owl, Carlton Palmer, Conehead John.  Stick the deal up yer arse. Looking forward to playing in a league one higher than you next season. Michael Smith will be useful to you in League 1.

I want to be excited but having read this thread the last hour I will be going to bed worrying that the EFL still have it in for us, Pearce is playing amortisation tricks again, we have a transfer signing pot with nothing in it, and Dom Dietrich is sleeping rough tonight. This forum is exhausting at times.

Anybody suggested we should tell the Wendies to do one?

We signed Washington when he wasn't 100% and that turned out fine 😬

We signed Washington, Waghorn, Bradley, Embleton and John-Jules who weren’t fit, but as you say they have all made fine contributions.

He’s having to re-sit his ‘good character’ exam.

I've highlighted the bit you actually addressed in your post which, as you need reminding said:

Best leave it there now I reckon 🙊

You won 🙂

What did you win?

Or , if you've got something that still plays discs, you could probably find a box set for next to nothing in a CEX type shop. 

You could always buy a Doovde player too. Some good deals out there.

That’s awesome. In a word, life. You got me worried now that my wife will grow tired of me after 40 years. (15 years this month (I believe we got married on the same day this forum was founded)).

15 years together. Two young lovers who are as sweet on each other as they were then. Yes a few bickers along the way, but considering their many, many issues, I can see David and Boycie being an unbreakable union of love and devotion for years to come.

To be honest, I’m not entirely sure if I was coming to a point. But I got there in the end ……. there should be a rule. A mil a year, that’s the most anyone could possibly need. After that you get taxed 100%. 

A mil a year?! That’s just my bar bill.

What is the point in brown being on the bench?

To play if we are three nil up. All about respect CBR.

All 3 need to be a goal threat. He isn't. 

He’s a goal threat when he’s defending 😜

I'm still using the barter system,  personally.

What would you give me for an old cow?

Just been in Littlehampton’s British Heart Foundation shop. Beryl reckons CBT will sign but it might drag on for a week or two. We are also interested in a young winger, perhaps loan from Prem her sources say. Any interest in Keogh is wide of the mark.

In the USA caving is actually known as spelunking - fact of the day.

If I am spelunking with any current cast member of Silent Witness it definitely is Fox.

I’m with Mrs C. Used to like it but increasingly formulaic with the annoyingly smug main characters proving how clever they are whilst every police man and woman is portrayed as a total idiot.

Not sure many pathologists, who rely enormously on their hands, would be boxing/ fighting every week. 

Also, there’s a whole bunch of political statements every week, delivered with the subtlety of a Monty Python fish.

For me, it’s the BBC at its worst, peddling a bunch of middle-classed main characters, surrounded by a selection from each minority in society to show how ‘in touch’ they are. If they’re serious about inclusivity, give these characters more of a story.

 I think if the franchise is to succeed, they need to marry off Emilia Fox and David Caves and send them a long way away. 

I am not prepared to marry Emilia Fox but if she wants an afternoon where we explore the insides of our bodies I would be happy to oblige.

Just ordered my first vinyl setup. 

I pulled Dark Side of the Moon, Rumours and Songs in the Key of Life out of my Mum's loft, but other album recommendations would be appreciated!

Blimey. So many to choose from. I pulled a few albums out of the attic the other day I have kept from way back then. Rumours was one. Bridge over troubled water and Breakfast in America, and Parallel Lines all great albums I hadn’t played for years.

Any of these if you are getting into the 70’s have their merits.
