Down to 10 men again :ohmy: The FA have certainly got it in for us

I don’t need to check a results service. If Yicktick has bothered his dull St Helens arse to post, we must have lost ;)[/quote]

Griff you know how it goes on here ,bad manager decisions ,Jordi Gomez yadda yadda ,Martinez out ,and all that shite :silly:

You would think some of these men would want a return to the pre prem days :ohmy:[/quote]

I don’t see anyone saying bad manager. Bad decisions from Martinez and the ref…..yes.

I am not quite sure what you expect after a really poor performance. You can’t just lick arse for the sake of it. If they have been bad then just say it. Go on i dare ya :P :P ;)

Nothing can be praised out of that game, Another one that needs to be wrote off though im afraid but how long can that go on for again. I want to see progression.[/quote]

a lot of supporters are to happy with themselves prior to the season predicting top ten finishes and the like we will not have anything to worry about this season was another doing the rounds as well ,the tree who came up will finish below us plus second season syndrom from the previous promoted teams.

I personnelly think we have not played to bad the first few matches with out getting tonked as was usually the case apart from OT we are creating more chances than this time last year and are more attacking than this time last year the defence as in this time last year as not settled with addition of Ramis plus Alcaraz missing games has not helped but given time will do

Today’s game could of seen wigan up a goal or two up to half time ,Gomez sending off obviously and them scoring three minutes later whilst still adjusting to ten men didn’t help and from then on it was up hill

I will reserve judgement has I always do look at the bigger picture then smile and have a quiet chuckle to myself whilst watching others self destruct after every defeat

He meant that if the two sides who have consistently performed over 27 rounds of league fixtures got to slug it out in the final then you would have a great game between the two sides who had finished top of the pile. Sadly that isnt going to be the case and Leeds have timed their run to perfection again, having been pretty mediocre throughout the season.

Isn’t that a sad indictment of RL at the moment

However, they are there and we are not. At the end of the day, its a bloody game and there are far more important things going on in the world – earlier this week, I was involved at work in the hosting of the family of a young colleague of mine who was killed last year. If they can be strong over losing their 21 year old son, then a 1pt defeat to the current SL champions isnt going to have me reaching for the bottle of pills.

Sorry to here that but why bring that up in a post when there as been constant banter between you and SDW

On the bright side for those who take delight in the town’s rugby side falling at the semi-finals – at least you have a chance of filling the ground for the Everton game now!

You’ve still got it Mutty

Schools half term that week so go for 7329

So RM fcuked up buying him then ? If Watson was not used hardly if at all in the great escape of last season then I am baffled as to why he is used now, especially with the evidence thus far that he is way below the standard of the Prem ![/quote]

Phil, you have a rather simplistic view about how football works.

Fyvie is nought but a kid, bought cheaply for the future, no matter what RM might say publicly to butter him up. It’s how we have to operate in our situation. I’m not sure how you can f*** up when you’re only spending half a million quid.

Watson didn’t get in the team at the end of last season because the first XI was busy beating all and sundry and not getting injured. Plenty others didn’t get in it either, ie Diame, Rodallega, Stam.

I presume that the ony reason Watson played on Saturday was because McArthur wasn’t fit (I hope so anyway) and Watson was the best available to slot in to that position.

Miyachi and McMananam are arguably better players than Watson – but not as sitting, holding midfielders.[/quote]

I hope filly finally gets the point ffs[/quote]

Yes I do get the point….Watson is not good enough, simple as ! Cant take corners, cant take free kicks and has a very negative effect on the midfield as a whole by constantly slowing down, sometimes even halting passages of play. He can find the odd good ball but surely that is down to the law of averages. As for having a simplistic view on the game Griff, yes I guess I do but who wants to get bogged down with the real workings of a club. Why not as many terrace fans do not just say what you see and from what I have seen of watson, well ….!! We did ok against West Ham the other night without Watson did we not !! Whatever I say certain people on the wind up will beg to differ but if we did a poll on Watson I think the majority would be with me ![/quote]

I don’t think anyone is disputing your analysis of Watson in his present playing situation but the point being that until macarther is back in midfield there is no one else to play in that position ,Fyfe is not ready yet and I cant think of any other alternative

Bad ticket sales for the number one team in world rugby

from North Korea .com

seems the clubs worried about ticket sales.
I had a recorded message off Sean Wane earlier urging me to buy.

for the record there is 38% availabilty in the South….as opposed to the usual 8-10%
49% and 65% for each half of the East..usually 25% ish
42% and 61% in the West
assuming Leeds dont bring more than 2,000 i think as the moment we are looking at about 12,000

And to just add Bosselli scored two and Jordi on the score sheet as well the legion of doom must be pleased as punch
