And for the trillionth time, he didn’t say that Bob would get um in the bottom four, his phrase was “wrong end of the table”. Read the first post again FFS. :angry:

The “bottom four” bob was the nickname Martinez was given by some posters on here, cos that’s where he had us for most of his tenure. Just like you are known by many as “thick as pigshyte” Barnsley. :P

PS; lying 7th in the table at the moment Everton are 3 places from a champions league place and 4 places from a bottom half place. mmmmm velly interlesting.

Hope it drops tonight or early tomorrow so James ‘thur can be on the coach/ flight to Brighton. :ohmy:

I think that the news filtering through about Watson may have forced Rosler to take the lad off and put him in cotton wool till Saturday. :woohoo:

I thought that Saturday was a good example of how standing and sitting can be accommodated.

The middle sections of the away end were all seated. The standers made their way to both sides and stood to their heart’s content.

There were signs everywhere stating this is an all seater stadium and fans must be seated for the duration of the game, but the stewards to their credit let the arrangement go and everyone was happy. :)

I suppose this will only work if it is unreserved seating or the stewards don’t insist that you sit in your allocated seat. :ohmy:

Ooooops, let that one slip out and there was only me, Paul and the chamber maid who was privy to this information. :blush: :P

I thought it was one of our best away performances this season, despite the defeat. Huddersfield are a team of young lively players who played the conditions well today. We created numerous chances and really should have put at least 2 or 3 of them away, especially the far post disaster by Waghorn and whoever, trying to beat one another to put the ball in the net.

I don’t like losing and if we deserved it I hold my hands up and say so, we definitely didn’t deserve to lose today in what was bleedin awful conditions.
I am of the opinion like many others that Rosler is dabbling with the team too much, however as Paul Jewell once said to me, the fans are great at picking the team after a game as been played. :huh:

Been in Silverwell on Darlington St tonight [mate got married and had his do there]

We ended up in the vault cos no seats left in main room. You couldn’t make it up, there was a 60+ year old chap with an Elgren top on

The posse in there were shouting for Wigan and soon realised that there was a few tics men in. I heard one mon say at least we’ve sold out the East Stand and for christ sake there was hundreds if not thousands of empty seats. :lol:

I try my best not to lower myself to their standards but can’t help it. The ref was crap, the pitch was crap, the wind was against um in the first half and again in the second half, the players wern’t used to the new strip, if only O’loughlan had played, we are missing Sam, Wane hasn’t got a clue, that Crabtree is an animal, etc. etc. etc. fekin loved every minute. Even if they win the soup or leek, these men will still moan and not make one attempt to get to the DW.
I know we have our moaners and pub fans, but these men have a degree in it. :P

The problem we face is not the type of sport being played, its the fact that the pitch doesn’t get a two week break when the rugby season starts.

You could put Morris Dancers on there but if it’s not getting time to recover will obviously be in worse nick.

Yes the pitch will deteriorate when the rugby starts, but not necessarily due to the type of sport being played, its just the relentless use in the main in very wet conditions.

Sorry GL but I don’t agree with your theory. Rugby players do have studded boots and traditionally longer studs than the ones footballers use.

Watch when players get tackled how the tackler digs his feet into the ground in an attempt to force the tackled player back. It’s a bit like the tug of war but in reverse.
The other factor is that there are 4 more players on the field at once which is bound to have an affect, plus the weight per player is also a factor.

Oh dear I can see GL getting his mortice board and gown out to calculate the relative force on the pitch bearing in mind the numbers of players, average weight of players, the variable time spent on a rugby match 80 mins factored in against the time spent on a football match, 90 mins, all multiplied by Pi. :S

So I sort of agree and disagree with comments made, but would like 110% to see the fekin tworts move to another venue, if you was to push me in a corner. :cheer:
