Re: Where does the blame lie ; not the Owners ?

Between 2012 and 2017, we had 4 different owners. For all his faults, Madejski provided stability and sustainability. The one thing the owners must do is show a bit of long term commitment and stability in the board room. That will filter down through the club. Madejski was desperate for money and ...

Re: Where does the blame lie ; not the Owners ?

The key moment of when things began to turn bad was when the owners sacked Howe to bring in Gourlay.

Re: Back from the ****

Fingers crossed for results going our way next week. Fingers crossed the results go against us, then we can be deservedly relegated and we can get rid of this shower of gutless sh*te and rebuild and start all over again. It's not as simple as that though is it. It's all very well saying we can rebu...

Re: Gourlay

Literally everyone. Look at how empty the Director's seating is these days, the man is a tyrant who has no idea what he's doing.

20+ years of Howe running this club properly, and in less than a year this chump has us on the brink.

Re: Gourlay

I cannot stress enough just how responsible this man is for our demise this season. He is despised at the club, and the sooner he goes the better.

Re: BFTG Sunderland

Not as if he has any options to choose from. Without Bacuna there's a big hole. No sign of Evans today either. Sometimes I wonder if Blackett would make a defensive midfielder. Swift looked as if he's on the way back to match fitness. Joey van den Berg are the words you're looking for. Nope. He'll ...

Re: Rival Watch

Colin will leave Cardiff, he hates the Premier League.

Fulham cocking up the playoffs is the only thing that's keeping me going this season.

Clement 6 not a midfield combination to try again, please. Crying out for a defensive midfielder from about 10 mins in. Not as if he has any options to choose from. Without Bacuna there's a big hole.

Re: BFTG Fulham

A new manager has come in, and the only tangible difference I can see between the two styles is that instead of trying to pass the ball out of defence we are giving it a big hoof instead. Totally disagree with this - the defence look far more assured on the ball knowing that they can hit it long if...

Re: BFTG Fulham

I have the experience of watching Reading for twenty years or so, which has given me a decent enough basis for recognising when football is good or bad. One thing I don’t have, is the experience and/or knowledge of someone who has worked in football coaching or management as a full time vocation. Wi...

Re: 6 years ago today

To have this and Southampton within a fortnight of each other was incredible, not to mention the Brighton smash and grab. It was an amazing few weeks. Always remember the dick Nolan giving us the fingers when they got a goal back and thought he was a dick ever since. Southampton tops it for me main...

Re: Season Defining Moments

Cureton's equaliser against Brentford. Otherwise, it would have been the playoffs for us and we all know about our record in those. I’m going to try and flip this on its head in the interest of debate. Had we lost to Brentford and ended up in the play-offs, there is a very good chance we would have...

Re: Season Defining Moments

That draw vs a Yeovil team who went down and had 9 (?) Men. Caused brighton :evil: to get into the playoffs instead Think they had two sent off and another went off through injury so played against 8 men for the last 10 minutes or so. Couldn't believe we didn't score. On paper it’s sounds ridiculou...

Re: Stam Gone

Those of you who think the negativity was solely on Twitter or this spackerboard are living in cuckoo land. There has been very little support for the club, especially at home, when the going got tough. I attended my first (and probably last) Star AGM in September where we had the pleasure of Jaap ...

Re: Stam Gone

Probably the right decision in the circumstances, but I can’t help but feel the fans need to shoulder some of the blame for this season’s failings. The vitriol Stam has received throughout the whol campaign has been absolutely disgusting. ‘Bald nonce’, ‘bald oxf*rd’, ‘dutch bastard’, some people sho...
