We haven't relied on a striker to score the goals because, with the exception of one season with Joao, we've not had a good goal scoring forward. We desperately need someone who can score 20 or more goals a season, and those kind of numbers usually come from the guy up top. I note we've not had a pl...
Enjoyed that, thought Reading played really well. Defended well first half, took the game by the scruff in the last half hour or so. Should’ve had a penalty. A LOT of Spurs in the home end. Also, Van de Ven is a specimen There was always going to be loads of them in the SJM. It's not really a big d...
I'd say the Spuds are up there just behind Chelsea and Arsenal in terms of "supporters" around the Reading area. Expect a lot of people all around you who think their knowledge of and passion for football is much better than yours because they "follow" a PL side.
I think we all know there aren't enough goals in this squad yet. Only one senior front man. Needs another 20 goal a season forward. I realise they are the most difficult type of player to recruit, but without another one, we are never going to score enough goals. Can't rely on Knibbs, O'Mahoney and ...
I'm sure the vast majority of Blades are as disgusted as we are. However, his voice hasn't changed, and I don't recall a single instance of anything homophobic being even hinted at by Royals. So it maybe that attitudes are a bit more Neanderthal amongst a tiny minority of Sheffield United followers,...
Right lubala signing today, Jacobs tomorrow. Craig is going to Orient. And we've turned down a 1 Million pound bid for Harvey Knibbs. Thanks Does that mean Orient are paying Craig 12k? Seems a bit unlikely. If not, he may be making a side-ways (at best) move for no good reason. It's great shame bec...
Firstly, we know Couhig is a hard bastard in negotiations, it's how he bought the club. It's also safe to say most fans would view the likes of Wareham and Ehibhatiomhan as squad players and not first name on the teamsheet. Craig is a bit different that I think he is genuinely a top half L1 player ...
Paunovic is now a manager in La Liga with Oviedo, having secured promotion. Tigres fans in Mexico liked him a lot too I saw they'd been promoted, didn't know he was the manager. Pleased for him. Decent guy. When he's sat on the bench at Mastella or the Estadio Benito Villamarin he'll wonder where i...
We got rid of him because he was unprofessional and a bad influence on our younger players. Absolutely do not want him back. Which seems a bit strange, because both of his clubs in France (Bordeaux and Amiens) have emphasised his professionalism, his positive influence on the squad in general, and ...
I’d be up for changing our nickname back to The Biscuitmen. The Royal family haven’t exactly covered themselves in glory of late. Time to distance ourselves from them before one of them bangs a child and then buys them off again. +1000000 You know when some pr1ck at school gave themselves a nicknam...
I don’t think there are 600 odd better teams than us in the world. We're maybe similar standard to bottom third Eredivisie, bottom half Jupiler Pro-League, bottom third Portuguese, most of the Norwegian, Swedish leagues all bar the top two or three. I think any German, Italian, Spanish, French, Arg...
Not an obvious choice, unless you have lots of young and inexperienced players you want to build a squad around over several seasons. If thats' the plan at Bramall Lane then good luck to them. If not, this could end in tears.
