Rob Phillips says he has spoken to the club tonight and there is no truth in the rumour regarding talks about erol buluts position
Thing is we’ve clearly backed ourselves into a corner with some of these contracts we’ve given… Chambers, El-Ghazi, Ramsey, even Ralls who has been a wonderful servant but his time is nearly up. Feck knows what has happened with Ng this season but he has been utter gash too.
When the kids came on the last 20 mins, sure there were some very poor touches and it didn’t click but at least we tried to get forward and played with some pace and intent. If we just start with that team and give it a go, I don’t think we are going down.
That’s half the problem at least, no idea where we are going to find a striker from. The fact that Tan bought a good one with City’s money and sent him to Kortrijk is a scandal.
Decent enough keeper , decent left and right back , ralls as the dog in midfieldQuote:

It's not Dantes Inforno
I'm sure he uses a good brand of lubricant :hehe:Quote:

I think if there are any positives it’s that Fish looked tidy, he could maybe play with the Norwegian lad.Quote:

I think everyone generally agrees it's time for a changeQuote:

Well today, I wasn't bothered.
However, just as we were getting near the end of the exciting Saturday afternoon garden centre visit, I looked at the time and thought... If I pay for my stuff, real quick, I can go back to the car and listen to the last 15 minutes of the first half.
Suffice to say, as we were driving home, instead of having the radio on and having the conflict of interest between listening politely to MrsKingofSiamSheIs and trying not to get too excited about City building up the pressure and missing another chance, I turned the radio off because I envisioned what was going to happen.
Consequently, I had a pleasant, relaxing day out in the sun with MrsKingofSiamSheIs.
No offence to MrsKingofSiamSheIs, but a Saturday afternoon, after a week of drudge in work, should be more entertaining than looking forward to a visit to a garden centre!
Gavin???? I’d take frigging Stacey!!!!Quote:

If a workforce feels demotivated and they lose respect for their bosses, or they see their boss puting the blame on them as opposed to taking responsibility for a situation equally, then i reckon that they're not going to put a full shift in, or they're going to feel devalued, which leads to poor performance. And i think that's what we're witnessing up to a point. I also believe in having some pride and taking personal as well as collective responsibility when things go to shit, and i don't see much character in this squad of players. We can all blame people, circumstances, things not sitting right with us, but ultimately, when you go out and play there are certain aspects of the game which are on the player, and when things are going south it's then that we look for character, i don't see any.:thumbup:Quote:

It's a bug bear of mine. I know that circumstances can sometimes dictate, but we can all take a bit of ownership when the hit hits the fan, many hands and all that :thumbup:Quote:

Thing is, when you con people into getting them to think that you take responsibility, blaming others becomes more believable. That's a win in my book.Quote:

They may as well dig up the goals in the training pitch, there’s no way they use them.
That’s existential genius.Quote:
