Bit harsh. Dykes has scored 60 goals in 331 appearances north and south of the border whilst Obikwu has 13 in 52. I’ve got a good feeling about this lad.
Any team that has Ben Pearson in it and accuses us of this I cannot take seriously. I see their manager was having a go at Dunne for the foul that left their forward with a broken leg. The foul wasn’t intentional as far as I could see, but he didn’t mention the follow through by Thomas on Dembele which certainly looked intentional and where Dembele was lucky to avoid serious injury.
Remember queuing to get into the Empire pool as it was then for the London Standards 5-a-sides and seeing the headlines about Dave Clement. Tarnished a good night for the club as we won the tournament.
For me also, Dave Clement was the best right back this club ever had. Had everything, pace, could tackle and leave the winger knowing that he had been tackled. Great passer, could shoot with both feet and could easily have been a winger or another central midfielder in the likes of Gerry Francis. For 20 years or so we had an amazing youth development programme, with the likes of Clement, Gillard, Francis and Leach in the late 60’s early 70’s followed by the likes of Allen, Goddard and Waddock in the late 70’s and then Macca, Stewart, Dawes and Neill in the early 80’s. Let’s hope with the application for Cat 1 status those times can return and a modern day Dave Clement can be produced.
Suddenly it looks fine again. From the glimpse of the ER side we get for the first goal, grass has suddenly appeared. Just need half our team to recover now!
One down after 8 minutes. Although to be fair to Cooper it was a real Thunderbastard of a shot. Barnsley could have been two up themselves in the first five minutes.
Says something that every WHAM player except Potts cost more individually than our whole starting eleven and yet we took them to the end.
I feel that two players came of age today, Kolli who didn’t look out of place against a PL defence and caused them plenty of problems, and Joe Walsh, two outstanding saves and by the end looked quite comfortable with those inswinging crosses. Shame we didn’t have our best team out as I reckon we would have turned them over.
If I recall correctly we were looking at closer to £6million in the summer so £4.5million is a good buy. Spread over five years, which is now the maximum for amortisation calculations, assuming we have agreed this length of contract adds £900k to the debit column on the balance sheet. With the players we have signed in the last six months, such as Kone, Burrell, Saito, Poku and even potentially Mbengue, coupled with the younger players such as Morgan and Kolli we only need one of these players to fetch big money and all costs are covered.
Have seen on the Beeb that Dieng is negotiating a release from Middlesbrough and could be signing for Hull. And yet we extend Hamer’s contract to the summer. Would have loved to see Seny back. best keeper since Alex Smithies.
I think there is something about Bennie that will see him succeed. Certainly has built up his strength and is more than happy to put a boot in where it hurts, also it seems that he knows where the back of the net is.
Thought that racist scumbag Fernandez was lucky to stay on the pitch after getting in the refs face after the sending off. Hopefully the lengthy contracts they created for this laughable bunch of filth will see them eventually caught up in the FFP or whatever the PL now call it. They’ve cheated twice to avoid financial sanctions through ‘selling’ their hotels and women’s team and it seems that the PL are reluctant to sanction them over the financial cheating by the Russian war criminal.
Still pop over to their forum and see how pleased they are with the appointment of Hull City’s second best manager in the last five years!
Turkey here, roasted some gammon last night. All the trimmings plus my world famous roast potatoes that can cut diamonds.
My dear departed Mum used to make Xmas puddings all round. Was the start of advent family event and we used to come home from school in December to be welcomed by the latest round of steaming. I now resort to a pudding bought from Borough Market, complete with sixpence!
Maybe they have been screwed over because of the socialist policies of the current cretinous chancellor who with her boss is more interested in saving their own skins rather than putting the country first.
We relaid the pitch in the summer of 24, invested in new drainage system.10% of the grass is artificial so there is only one reason why the pitch is failing to pieces…… a marauding Mbengue after half time!
If possible use the A3 to get down. I’ve been sharing my time between MK and the Fareham area for much of the last couple of years now and the motorways have been a real nightmare. First there was M3 widening from the A34 junction to the M27 junction on the M3. Once this was completed they decided to overlay the existing concrete surface between junctions 5 and 7 on the M27 which is now near completion and now thus is finished they are rebuilding the A34/M3 junction.
Last home game of the 2000/01 season against Stockport. We were down and all but seven players were out of contract. Peter Crouch won every award going and it was obvious that nobody wanted to play in that match other than Crouchy. Lost 3-0 and we were lucky to get nil that day. That was the day for me that the club had hit rock bottom.
Left on 90 minutes when two down at home against Brentford a few years back. Was walking ain’t Blomfontein when I heard Pigbag strike up and a couple walked passed me saying ‘well that’s one at least!’ I looked at my phone to see who scored and couldn’t believe that was in fact the equaliser! I can only imagine that the guy in charge of pressing the Pigbag button couldn’t be arsèd after the first goal.
