No idea about Spackers.
But Andy Gray was desperate to get back to London so, he was willing to move to a smaller club from Aston Villa to QPR. The catch was we had plenty of midfielders with Spackman, Reid, Wilkins and Barker so, he played Right-Wing for us. Which he was brilliant at. So, could he started being looked at for an England cap.
But he wanted to play central midfield and moved to Palace (he always really wanted to play for anyway) so, he could play centrally. Here he did pick up his England cap, but faded after that.
Personally I think he should have stayed at right-wing as he was amazing there. He had pace, could dribble, shoot, go past players and decent crossing of the ball. In the middle, he seemed to get passed around and did not have the engine to get up and down the pitch from box to box. But that's where he preferred to play so, we lost him.
When we had Sansom and Gray, George Graham said we would become a force and threaten at the top. Especially after we totally mauled them in the FA Cup 2-0. Arsenal played their best team and best game and still got beat. They had no answer to Wegerle. Also, Ferdinand turned up that year to knock two past Chelsea.
Then we sold these players and it never happened. If we had kept the squad that year and brought in just 1-2, then we would have established ourselves as a force for sure in the following season. We did not and that was a big mistake. |

I would be super surprised if we can sign Hayden. Also, the wages for someone who is almost 29 are not great, in my view.
I suspect Hayden will go to Sheff Utd or Burnley or Leeds if they don't go up. |

You lie, as that would mean he would have left the penthouse and missed out on his PlayStation Battle Royal ladder game. Not to mention his in home mental health therapy sessions.
Stop teasing us with him doing activities like going somewhere for some physical reason. |

Unks has had seasons with several managers now just at QPR let alone others, he has seen several styles and the impacts of those.
He has seen how to recover from a desperate situation with Marti and how to do Powerpoint to impress bosses with Beale and how to gee up the team to win even when your out of your own skill depth with Gaz.
Hes seen it all, I suspect he could add value if gets his coaching badges. He has also seen the perils of academies and dev squads by playing with them recently and not 20 years ago. What the young uns go through.
Not to mention, his contacts are vast and wide.
He should get his badges and go and coach abroad like Marti as that's all he's missing now. The abroad experience will fill in his missing gaps and he will hopefully be a great coach. |

The cost of Dozy to Brum could be relegation, a very expensive signing indeed and one that goes loose at the end of the season (which maybe a good thing for Brum).
I hope they go down; I looking forward to seeing Roberts and Laird in L1. And Stansfield saying at the start of the new season that he's learned a lot in their relegation season when he signs for Luton on loan.
Think if they are in L1 and Roberts does feck all as he probably will that means his career is over as no one will take him then. Not even L2 teams!
Sunday non-league beckons! |

Lawal can play RB as well.
Why do I suspect that's where they want him? A tall RB? Sound familiar? It could be Cannon's off, then. |

This stinks of agent fishing, putting it out there to tempt other clubs. I would be surprised if Celtic were interested. He's an average Champ goalie, great at saves, very bad at kicking.
Ruddy from Brum is out of contract and he's better. This is how we know its agent nonsense. |

Even the EFL have probably had enough and demoted him or something and he's ego could not take so, he's gonna hide it by retiring.
Probably said he has to do L2 now and that was it for him. |

We were 2-0 up against Bournemouth at halftime and lost 2-3.
We needed the third to ensure we did not lose.
Once we were 3-0 up, I knew it was game over, and the fourth was capitulation by them. Looking back, we can see they were defeated when Summersville missed that chance. After that, they gave up. |

We cannot afford Hayden and also, Marti thinks Colback is better, which he is when he stays back 10 yards and does not give away silly yellows.
Hodge has had moments, not just the goal, but good play as well. Wolves may let him go for cheap as we can claim we are taking a risk. But how do we know hes even worth £500K unless we play him a bit more.
Also, we need to play these loan players as why would Prem clubs let us borrow players on loan on the cheap (which is the only way we get em) if we don't play em?
Cov game is not crucial, we should play these players as a thank you to the Prem clubs who loaned em on the cheap. This way they will hopefully loan us players again on the cheap when we need it or sell em cheap as we have proven we can look after em. |

I liked the silver and black version. I should have bought that one.
I did not like this year's home kit as I am not a fan of the red badge.
I will buy the away shirt for this season as I thought it was a very good Dennis the Menace kit for a change. Do we know if they go on sale and when? |

Great question ...
Hodge to see if we should sign him and Hayden is there to support the others who have come in and also to give Colback and Field a rest. Well with Colback its more to prevent him getting sent off and missing the first 3 games of next season. |

Reply | Most Important Goal of the Season
at 22:31 27 Apr 2024
Dozy's goal should be the goal of the season.
It's amazing, and Dieng is stranded, and he meant it.
But as we now know thats all he did.
The most important goal is Paal's knee in against Hudders. If they win that, they go 6 points clear, and Moore keeps his job. They didn't, and he was sacked, which was a massive mistake. Too many draws, the owner said, but the reason was they had too many injuries, and he was just about holding it together. Without him and that we were only 3 pts off meant disaster for them.
Almost as poor a sacking as Eustace for Brum.
Will they get away with it, or will it be like Hudders a suicide moment? |

Marti has changed his game tactically.
Before he was 10 yards higher up the pitch, this gave him the opportunity to score the odd goal. However, it allows the oppo to drop balls in between the midfield and defence, which means they can get out of any press we are trying to do.
We saw this in the first 20 minutes against Millwall at home. Then Marti instructed Colback to drop 10 yards, which he did, and that was the end of Millwall's attacks.
On his return from injury, it had to be instructed out of him again for a few games. Now he's on message with Marti, and we see that the oppo struggles to get through us, and we can hit them on breakaways, which was the first goal and somewhat the second.
So, Marti's management is the reason Colback's game tactics and overall performance has improved. He also showed a master class of it against Rotherham. It is similar to Barry Bannan's positioning and approach, but not quite as good as Bannan's passing, but better than Bannan's on the tackling and getting up and down the pitch side of the game. |

On the bench? You assume he won't get one of those mysterious hamstring injuries then?
Dozy will probably get a freebie into Pompy somehow. After all when he played for Brum they won games and did you not see his goal of the season against Boro?
I think Dom Ball is out of contract this season. It's a shame as I was hoping to see him smash into Erikson in the Prem. |

Brum it has to be.
Just to show stupid owners what happens when you go for the famous manager over the manager who is delivering for you. Brum senior management now even admits they should not have sacked Eustice.
We can all laugh at Roberts and Laird. Arrogant those two and now will be playing L1 football, instead of Prem which is where they think they should be.
Not forgetting Sanderson, the CD, who cannot win headers. And we get to see the back of Hogan who is one of those players who likes to score against us.
Bacuna looked decent from them, hopefully he moves on. Stansfield who is on loan would be a great replacement for Willock and years younger. Will be cheaper from Fulham as he was in a relegated side. |
