      Just thought this deserved an bump after the 3-0 win today for Bobbies boys :whistle: :whistle: :whistle:

      Well done to Mr Martinez and even more well done to you for waiting for this win today. Still bottom half of the table, even though it’s a pretty shit Premiership this season. Chelsea will win it by a country mile and our ex manager will not get his magnificent team into the Champs league again. Are you listening Mrkenwrong? :lol:[/quote]

          What are these Liverpool fans thinking

          They have all turned up at the post office with their Giros and forgot it closes early on Thursdays. :unsure:

              Not sure what Oaces have been doing for the past couple of years, but they are on at the Pagefield this Friday.
              My lad moved on to other projects a few years back, but he is guest drumming for them at this gig.
              I think its a few dabs to get in, Maddox is the real deal if you haven’t heard him and like Oasis.

                  If we go forward with that attitude, we will soon be putting too much emphasis on getting 3 nurps. :woohoo:

                  OK, OK you’ve convinced me, lets give Uwe more time to turn things around and hope that we consolidate our position half way up the Sky Bet Championship this season.
                  That will allow Uwe to bring in 5 or 6 new signings next season, so he will be able to play around with the team and formation even more………hang on a minute… :woohoo:

                    Good post donny.

                    But i also agree with another post that too much emphasis has been put onto getting back into the premier league as well.

                      Please step away from the X-Box

                      I get your point, but how long does a transitional period take and do you ever get to the goal of winning games on a regular basis, if you are constantly changing the team, formation etc?.

                      I think that this has already been addressed, however, when you are managing assets as complicated and as expensive as this you do not rush things just to appease the crowd

                      Apart from a core of about 3 players, the rest don’t know if they are playing from week to week, even if they play well when selected.
                      If I am performing well in my job, I would be totally miffed if my boss says well done mate, done the business there, but I’m bringing Fred Bloggs in next week in your place, take a break sunshine.

                      I think you are grossly understating the ‘core’, but I suppose that fits in with your rant. Further, there are jobs out there (outside of football) where specialists and core personnel are rested/changed/rotated because of the type of work carried out – not everyone works for Heinz/a garage/a production line

                      Rosler has had long enough to sort his team and formation out, How can you know that if you say he still needs time, then what a fekin idiot for playing the likes of Chow, Jennings, Holt even Tavernier in the pre-season friendlies when he had no intention of them featuring in the starting 11. How is he supposed to know how his players/team are going to perform if he isn’t going to play them pre-season, and how do you know he did not have any intention of featuring them

                      The mentality of some of the players could be, fek it if I play well I’ll still get dropped, why bother. [yes even on their massive pay packets].Rubbish – you have no idea what the players are thinking There has been unrest in the dressing room, even Whelan had to go in before the Forrest game and give um a pep talk, jeesh! :blink: Did you find out about this ‘unrest’ from your friends, mates aunty who cleans the offices of the guy who delivers the pies? – also it is well documented that Mr Whelan often comes into the dressing room – it’s a sign of good management and a reflection of the excellent lines of communication shared from the top, through the manager to the playing and support staff

                      IMO, we need to get promoted this season, the team is slowly but surely becoming a distant memory from the one that kept us in the prem for all those years.
                      I can only see us going down the same route as Leeds, Forrest, Portsmouth etcYou are indeed entitled to your opinion

                      OK Whelan balances the books and what a magnificent job he’s done, but it’s no good if the manager doesn’t get the best from his squad, no-one will dispute that he is categorically not getting the best from this squad at the moment. Hmmmmm!

                      If we don’t get up this season, the likes of Maloney, Ramis, McLean, McManaman will probably want to move on and so the memories of the premier league will go fainter and fainter.And how do you think we managed to achieve promotion waybackintheday eh? Players move on and fresh ones come in – we have done it once and we can do it again – and I believe that

                      I for one didn’t want us to get relegated from the prem, some on here hoped we would, i wonder what they are thinking now?. :huh:
                      What’s the point of being the most affluent club and having the best training facilities, in League two.League two? – now you are just being plain daft

                      So IMO he does need to start winning games, the honeymoon period is over, we have the best squad in this division, even other managers recognise that fact, so what is going wrong? Only Uwe and his players can answer that.

                      Look, this is a long season (and it’s only October). Stand back, take a deep breath and stop listening to the doom and gloomers in the pub who wouldn’t know a game of football if one broke out in their back yard. Our team and our manager need our continued support and we need to keep showing it – Confidence breeds success.[/quote]

                      My opinions are based on what I see on the pitch and what is confirmed by looking at the sky bet championship table, not what other people say.
                      I’ll support this club till I die, unfortunately for me I am of the age that has seen me watch the tics from non-league football. I have lived the dream in the past 10 years. I think I know a bit about football, I’m not a young kid who has never seen any really bad days at Wigan and I also don’t watch the game through blue and white tinted glasses.

                      I’ll say it again…..

                      MY ONLY GRIPE IS THAT OUR MANAGER IS MEDDLING WITH THE TEAM FAR TOO MUCH. THE TEAM HAS PLAYED REALLY WELL AND WON, OR HAS PLAYED REALLY WELL AND DRAWN OR LOST WHEN THEY DIDN’T DESERVE TO LOSE, SO MY MESSAGE TO ROSLER IS, “DON’T TRY AND FIX THINGS THAT AREN’T BROKEN, OR YOU’LL SPOIL THEM”.

                      I’ll challenge anyone to predict with confidence what our team will look like against Brentford. I’ll even challenge anyone to predict 6 of the outfield players who will play against Brentford.
                      We are almost a quarter way through the season, these questions should be easy to answer. I bet the fans of teams like Forrest, Norwich, Derby, Watford, Ipswich, Boro etc can accurately answer these questions without blinking.

                      Lets hope we kick start the season with 6 points in the next 2 games and lets also hope that if we do beat Brentford, he plays the same team, if available, against Millwall. :cheer:

                          I’m not, but still feel he can turn it around if he stops dabbling with the pishing team. That’s all my point his, my glass is still half full, but the heads rapidly disappearing. :dry:

                              how long does a transitional period take in football ianything from 6 to 18 months with constant buying and selling of players in that period or change of manager could add a further length of time

                              I think Southampton might just blow that argument out the water. Raped of all your best players one minute, bring in a set of new ones, 4th off bottom? don’t think so. :whistle:

                              There is nobody that wants Uwe to get us going like he did last season more than me, FFS he took a team of no hoper’s and with minimum time and changes, got um in the play offs and a whisker from the play off final.

                              His record for the last 20 odd games doesn’t make good reading at all, so lets stop burying our heads in the sand and realise that he needs to get a settled team and a settled formation. I’m almost at that stage where I’m not bothered what that settled team my be, two fekin goalies in the starting 11 if he wants, but stick by them.
                              Just ask yourself thirty, what was wrong with the team that beat Birmingham? What was wrong with that team who stood toe to toe with Forrest? I’ll tell you absolutely nothing, but on top of one forced change, he goes and makes another 3 or 4.
                              I may be wrong, but for me, he appears more concerned about keeping a massive squad happy, than he is about picking his best team and sticking with them over a sustained period. What an absolute travesty that is. :(

                                Totally disagree
                                Nobody gets relegated in November and things will turn believe me – they have done already
                                Unbeaten in two games
                                Too much emphasis has been placed on getting back to the premier league in my opinion and that has fed through to the manager and players which is ridiculous when the club is in a transitional period.
                                We will not get relegated but sack the present staff and we might be and a change wouldn’t improve anything- we would still have an oversized squad and the new lads like De lort and company would still be settling in.

                                I get your point, but how long does a transitional period take and do you ever get to the goal of winning games on a regular basis, if you are constantly changing the team, formation etc?.
