Are you sure Man Utd don’t get to choose Garswood, they get to decide everything else by the looks of it.
Have to agree, the set up in rugby is cringeworthy, a team that loses more games than it wins can ultimately be crowned champions, and there’s games in the play off system that don’t matter a jot? Crazy but true.
i beg to differ
evey year we sell our best and replace them with a poorer standard
so going off that (15 years and we will be stronger) is impossible to do
as next year who will be left as i see figgy di santo one or two more not being here
plus kone will jump ship first chance he gets
eventually only shyte playing staff and ground staff will be leftBicky, we’ve sold our best players since sky invented football, since being in the prem we’ve sold Baines, Bullard, Valencia, Palacios, Cattermole, Heskey, N’Zogbia and Moses to name but a few.
We’re still here.
So to say its impossible to do it for another 10/15 years is obviously wrong. I’d say it’s more an achievable goal.
If we can compete in this league, whilst spending within our means, and building the structure of the club (training facilities, academy etc), whilst our fan base continues to grow, then I would call that a resounding success, not the abject failure you seem to wish upon us at every opportunity.
Following a club is a matter of dealing with the ups and downs, at the moment, believe it or not, we are on the up, though you wouldn’t think it listening to the crap some people say on here, we may be a top six side in 15 years, we might be in division 2, so what, life’s a journey not a destination. Whinge if you must, but don’t try to tell good long term supporters that we should be doing any better than we are, because it just doesn’t wash I’m afraid.
Oh ffs, now we’re going to get Sudworth and his amazing technicolor bullshit, what’s the betting he does his first one in white.
All fair comment yosser, but we are what we are. It must be frustrating at times for bobby, he hasn’t got alot of money to spend, so has to take a chance on cheaper players, and the best thing for him is if they perform just good enough. Let me elaborate on that, if they don’t perform well, we get mullered and ultimately will get relegated, if they perform too well, they’ll be sold to the highest bidder at the first opportunity, so mediocrity is the order of the day, to get a team gelling and playing well enough to stay in the league. At least he’s taking a chance on 2/3 million pound players and not 8/10 million pound players, which have just the same potential to be shite at times.
We will never be top six challengers with the spending and wage structure we have, and that is due to the lack of income the club receives, but in the long run we’ll be ok, and that is what’s important, if you look at a club like Everton, it’s taken 10 years from a good manager like moyes to get steady results and at times a really good side, but they spend beyond their means at times and leave themselves vulnerable because of it, and they too are forced to sell assets when another club comes in for them, they haven’t won anything and I think we have got to as many finals as them in the last 10 years. And this is a club steeped in history and success with a large fan base, so what do we really expect?
I think that mid table is a fantastic achievement, but survival is always the aim, and I think we are capable of that, a good cup run would boost morale and revenue and give us more exposure, so we should be giving it a real go, something I think we have been guilty of ignoring in recent years.
We have to remember that we are new to this game, and are feeling our way into it, both economically and on the pitch, if we are still here in 10 or 15 years I would wager that the ground will be full every week, and the personnel will be of a better standard, but we’ll have to put up with some frustration in the meantime, but it’s not all bad, we’ll have some great days this season as well as the shite.What does ” Double teamed ” mean if you don’t mind me asking ? Two players today had some passion, Kone and Maloney, The rest were shit full stop !It’s when you get another male, usually a friend, to help you to sort the missus out, a little awkward at first, but can be quite enjoyable, however, be warned, the feelings of worthlessness and self loathing afterwards are even worse than when you crack one off the cuff whilst thinking of an ex.
Because he is obviously sporadically retarded, and it’s a shame for the mong, sometimes his grammar and vocabulary are perfect, others it’s the work of a spastic, cut him some slack fil, he’s got issues.
Go on then, I’ll come with you, is there room in your special needs bus, I’ve got my own viz vest, and my mum will make me a packed lunch, how much is it?
