    Huddersfield Town 2-3

    Such a thought is lurking in the back of my mind too, but I keep trying to repress it. I live in London so have only seem them 4 times so far (MK, Fulham, Leyton, Colchester) and my only real worry is what benefit Howard's inclusion gives us. His first touch stinks. He's been weak with his...

    Dyer x2?

    With Pearson working with the handbag-swiper last season and him looking for a mentor to keep him out of youth detention, step up Leicester City. Aren't we nice. Could happen! http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11688_3761534,00.html

    Quaint community of travelling lovelies in the car park

    Re: Gypos in the car park Christ alive! I'm not sticking up for anyone. I merely stated the fact that the word gypo is derogatory and it's not that far away from having a thread with paki in the title, as someone earlier stated. Feel free to keep rolling it out. I'm just making a point...

    Re: Gypos in the car park If you really think that gypsy or gypo have ever been anything other than derogatory, then yes, I'd come to a pretty quick conclusion that you avoided school.

    Re: Gypos in the car park Yep, let's rename it. At least the clever people spouting this pish can have somewhere to get it off their chests still.

    Quaint community of travelling lovelies in the car park

    Re: Gypos in the car park I think Polars comparison of paki from pakistani is extremely valid, considering the origins of "gypsy" come from a derogatory reflection of Eqyptian travellers, and consequently all who choose to do so to this day. Be they scum or not, Gypsy and gypo are...

    Holloway........right or wrong ?

    All this blue mongey gash. What's the point. It's words from people who habitually take the negative over the positive to sound edgy and deconstructive. I've always suggested that fans should follow the team, albeit blindly, through whatever goes on. For me that's what support means. It doesn't...

    It's Holloway...

    This is clearly a load of gash. End of thread.

    Burnley Post Match Thread

    Whatever the standard of football on show, if I had a mate that listened to music half way thru just because the game was shit, I'd be more concerned with him than the standard of the football. Nobody is happy with this shit.

    Burnley Post Match Thread

    Watching the post match press conf, I couldn't agree more. I think Burrows is distinctly old-school in his methods - in essence just "throwing forwards on" and it's a gamble. We don't want gambles. We want tactics. His whole outlook is tired. I think he should get back to his flower beds and...

    Steve Cotterill...

    I don't think it suggests anything other than he's incognito for the weekend and than back to the business of talking to possible employers on Monday. It's doesn't indicate he's signed for anyone.

    My sarcasm was directed at those that spout without any basis to what they're rattling on about. Fair play to you for digging a little deeper.

    Tigana or Royle ?

    Bloody good gardener tho.

    Steve Cotterill...

    You've illustrated a desire to delve further for the truth here, even having the audacity to back up your point with factual quotes. This sort of level-headedness will earn you a reputation.

    Tigana or Royle ?

    I'm thinking that Tigana's inclusion may just be MM's way of showing us that he's actively searching for exciting management, with the eventual outcome of us being lead by some old chump who'd achieved all he could in his garden.

    I think it's agreed we'd all like Tigana here the most. Cotterill is my second tho. Sod all the rest of the out of work / can't get work pish on offer.

    Steve Cotterill...

    I can see you're depressed from how you talk of us as ordinary, and I understand it. But I'm sure you'd agree that the only part of this still great club we support that is ordinary is what is happening on the pitch. Everything else remains extraordinary to me, especially as I look in from the...

    Steve Cotterill...

    I think people on here have selective memories. We would've been happy with Cotterill when he was offered the post before, and the reasons for that remain; he's a good young coach. Good coaches don't guarantee success at a club, Jewell at Shef Wed being an example. It's a start, but the chairman...

    Steve Cotterill...

    I recall when he first got to Burnley, they were going great guns and certainly playing more attractive footie than I've seen at the Walkers for an age. Why it's gone pear shaped now I don't know, but he's a good young coach who I think will do well if backed by a sprinkling of Milan's wonga.

    I wonder if anybody is the slightest bit interested whether it is Grayson or not!

    Re: It 'could' be Grayson ! I don't really care why people mentioned the Scunny manager to be honest, I just threw that in to add colour. My main point clearly was that comments of us recruiting a relegation zone manager were clearly full of plop when you see they're only a win below us...

    I wonder if anybody is the slightest bit interested whether it is Grayson or not!

    Re: It 'could' be Grayson ! I love how some were questioning earlier in the thread as to why we would want a manager who is in the relegation zone and we should go for Scunny's man instead! For "relegation zone" read "3 points below us", and Grayson has had chuff all to spend there. Get...

    Gonna stick to the Kings I think. Sounds better, and I've told all the gimps on the way down. Changing the hostelry three times in one day could cause malfunction.

    Burrows, Grayson / A N Other & Taggart

    Only thing that worries me about Burrows is that he's a bit old school in his tactics etc, which will be exploited. I'm liking the idea of Souness more and more, but I smelt a ginger man round the corner 6 weeks ago and I smell a fat, northern, ex man city pie muncher round the corner this time.

    Anyone suggest any pubs on the Earls Court road they've been to? Apparently it's a better bet down there as there's a few. Who cares about the score. It's party time.

    You may have misinterpreted my words as suggesting I work in the Australian outback. You'll find Shepherd's Bush has slightly more antipods.
