    When I was about nine my father said to me - attack is the best form of defence.

    Why does Bulut think defence is the best form of attack?

    Probably because our attackers are useless.

    But if you give them less opportunities to be useless, they'll be even more useless.

    Have any of them ever scored regularly? Maybe the Bristol guy who’s still getting to fitness.

    Doesn't matter. If you create less opportunities, we'll score less.

    Maybe, doesn’t mean we will get more points, if you can’t win you make sure you don’t lose.

    Preston's striker scored for the first time in FIFTEEN months against us. Hiding behind, "our strikers aren't good enough and that's the reason we don't score" is a poor argument. The whole team lets us down, not just the striker or wingers.

    you miss 100% of the shots you don't take.

    Football is about winning, not drawing.

    How much of that 15 months was he injured? Its not like he played week in week out and didn't score in that period, he had a knee injury didn't he?

    I thought our strikers showed great accuracy when they managed to aim the ball directly at the keeper, and it takes great skill to avoid accidentally putting the ball in the opposition net.

    That didn't work of North Korea in 1966 against Portugal. 3-0 up, just kept on attacking and ended up losing 5-3.

    My father's last words were "Son, would you mind taking your foot off my breathing tube?".

    Woman in bed in a coma. Everyday, when the nurse comes in to bathe her, she notices slight changes in her vital stats whenever she washes near her crotch. So the nurse fetches the woman's husband and says, "I think a little oral sex is all your wife needs to come out of this coma." The husband nods and asks for a little privacy. The nurse leaves, but after a few minutes she hears a horrible clatter followed by the woman flat-lining. The nurse runs in and yells, "What the hell happened?" The husband replied, "I don't know, I think she choked."

    Have you seen the Spanish film 'Hable Con Ella' (aka Talk To Her) - in which a besotted admirer finds that the unwitting object of his attention falls into a coma in hospital. He signs up as a hospital orderly in order to get access to her and gets her pregnant, which brings her out of her coma.
    Not exactly Disney, I know.

    Can't say I have seen it, but there must be a musical made of this, surely?

    When I was about 9, my Dad gave me an empty box on Christmas Day and told me it was an Action man deserter!
    He also gave me a pkt of AA batteries, that said toy not included!
