Nice bloke clearly. Great interview. Excellent achievement gaining promotion. He clearly deserves the opportunity to take us forward next season. But his football approach still leaves me cold. I wasn’t aware but the Sky Comms said today that the players get a day off for scoring at a set piece. Sounds like a nice bit of man management, but it reinforces my belief that he is too focussed on set piece success and having fit scrappers prepared to win their share of second balls, than having a team that might play some decent football. Don’t give them days off - try getting them to pass to each other in tight situations. As I posted on the matchday thread, we looked very ordinary today. I actually said woeful at HT, but fortunately we did raise it a little second half.
Delighted of course to be back in the Champ, and really pleased for Clowes.

I only found out it was happening about 30 seconds before. Lovely touch from the club. 

Respect

I will care if we lose 3-1.

Careful about going back into town post-match everyone.

He’s just too good to be true 
Can’t take our eyes off Ebou
Du-du, du-du, du, du, du,du etc

Hate this idea, it gives a team in the Premier League who has been able to enjoy the fruits of £150m plus revenues to snatch the same chance away from a championship club who are probably turning over £20-25m (if not already subsidised by parachute payments).
Last season it would’ve matched Luton with their £18m turnover and £24m wage bill (a lot of which would’ve been promotion bonus payouts) against Leicester with their £177m turnover and their £171m wage bill. 
It’s bad enough with 5 parachute payment clubs in the top 6 this season. It’s already becoming an ever-increasingly difficult proposition for non-parachute payment clubs to compete - this makes it much more difficult. 

Calm down. They've had a ridiculous run of fixtures in 21 days. He's rested them in midweek and they'll all be back in the team on Saturday. 
He's not going to risk some players having not had a game for a couple of weeks going into a playoff semi.

A pretty good analysis, Jono, although Warne was obsessing about getting lots of crosses in before our midfield deficiencies became apparent. And in many ways our midfield deficiencies was largely because he kept playing a 2-man midfield, but without a ball-winner in there. Oh, and by-passing it whenever possible.

We need 8 starting players to be a mid table championship team.
Warne has pretty much said this.

I really hope that we get promoted on Saturday but I’m not sure that I want to ever go back to the premier league. Never being able to properly celebrate a goal until all checks are complete is not what football is about (for me, anyway). 

Updated to include recent fixtures
We've conceded just 22 goals in 31 games and scored 55

Ugly, untidy, but better than nothing.
Coincidentally, my wife’s description of me.

FECK IT HOW DID THAT HAPPEN ......
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I ran out of coffee pmsl . Ahhhhh the heart attacks lol 😆 

Okay, now I am nervous

As strong as they could line-up, injuries aside. 

SpaceX is the most successful space company there's every been. It launches 90% of the entirety of the world's mass to orbit each year. It's only mid-April and it's already launched and landed 40 orbital missions. And is the only private company (not a nation) to ever fly people into low-Earth orbit, to the space station and beyond. Nearly 50 astronauts have flown this way. Then it has more than 5,500 Starlink satellites in orbit, more than half the total number of satellites there are. Yours is some very strange new meaning of the term "hasn't worked" with which I was previously unaware.

He does have a point though…. If we just keep going down the flanks then Cambridge will just double up and shut us out..

I don't really watch TV, so my gripes are all radio issues.
Adverts where the company name is repeated about 20 times in the space of 30 seconds.
Any advert where they think shouting will somehow induce me to buy their product.
Tool hire/van insurance etc ads that insist on using the exact same white van man caricature. Also, any of these type of adverts that are voiced by Ralph Ineson (which is about 90% of them).
 

Instead of belittling people who aren't fans of Warne or confident in him in the long term, why not try debating the points they make.
 

I think this underestimates AI and how it will advance. Soon it will be able to bring up children here, so in decades/centuries it would be far more capable of doing this for a new space colony. If Human and machine minds work together, we'll be able to start spreading across the Galaxy (and beyond according to some work).
[And, on one weird evening, a very friendly Anne Hathaway pulled me out of the audience in her one-woman New York Theatre play (she was playing a remote drone pilot in the USAF) and we had simulated sex before she went on to be pregnant and then had our baby! Very happy to oblige 😂😂 Maybe there'll always be a friendly Anne Hathaway to bring up children?] 

So you think we are more of a technical side under Warne than a physical one?
At League One level we simply have better players than the rest. Yet largely we still don’t dominate possession and play through teams.
That’s not a bad thing. Warne will get us promoted this season, no doubts, and he deserves credit for that.
But claiming his style of play is more technical than physical is just laughable.
