Maybe i’m boring but instead of just ticking along nicely everyone has to reach for the stars and go for broke. Individuals maxing out mortgages and credit cards to have the best house and car possible, businesses maxing out to go for the utopia 3% year on year growth.
No one leaves room for margins of error or allowances for things like interest rises etc.
None of it is sustainable. [Post edited 26 Apr 7:57]

When chimpanzees grin people think they're smiling. They're not, it's a sign of fear.
Maybe Klopp is a fearful chimpanzee? |

Realistic IMO.
Sounds like this is the start of them preparing to sell him, good for us then if so. |

"Comes a point where there's only so much you can do with a hooped shirt" - Indeed but that worries me. Are we coming to the point where they start doing something radical and we end up with abominations? |

Seen worse, seen better.
Would like to see blue shoulders too.
If they are going to do a vignette, make it more subtle.

Yeah, that could work too. All bodes well for us but, as always, we have to try and get it done ourselves, not rely on others. |

FT - Hull win 3-2 which means Coventry are almost certainly out of play offs.
GD between them and Norwich is so similar Coventry would need to win their three last games, Norwich to lose both and Hull to lose at least one game out of their two for Coventry to get in the playoffs.
We can’t control what happens at Blackburn v Coventry but we certainly can at Coventry v QPR so I’m taking tonight’s result as a plus and hope by the time we play them they just won’t give a hoot.
Feels a bit like the QPR v Bristol City last game of last season. We were safe then and you could see the stuffing was out of them so i hope it’ll be the same for Coventry after playing a lot more games than us this season.

Sat in the home end at away games on half a dozen occasions and we never won once so it never became a problem for me! |

The Olympic Legacy organisation fked up so much (not just on the stadium but the Olympic site as a whole) that they had to pretty much give it away or have it empty and falling apart. Not only just give it away but then throw in £millions of taxpayers money too. West Ham must have been wetting themselves laughing at such a good deal.
IIRC the stadium was meant to be designed in such a way that it would be downgraded to a smaller capacity athletics stadium (moving national athletics from Crystal Palace) but that never happened so they were left with a rubber duck of a stadium that was not designed or fit for football use.

It was like when Briatore announced on the pitch that the 4 year plan was to have QPR in the Champions League (then edited for history to be 'getting into the premier League')
What planet was he on? Not only did it mean actually getting promoted to the PL first but then to get into the top 4 and effectively ousting any one of the likes of Arsenal & Chelsea whilst at the same time muscling ahead of Villa, Tottenham, Everton (yes, at that time it was!), Fulham etc etc.
What a loon. |

One is assuming that if we (or any club) gets promoted that the abundance of riches is then to the benefit of the club.
It isn't, it just all goes on insane player transfer fees, player salaries and agents fees. If it didn't clubs wouldn't have huge debt, FFP problems and 155% income/player salary ratios.
How much does the club actually get to spend on anything else? Very little I'd imagine. |

The modern fan is a parrot/parody of what they see on TV, social media etc.
Can't think for themselves, basically. |

Lowe had to wait 12 seconds. Diddums. In the context of the situation of course Marti wanted to celebetare with his coaches. I don't think he deliberately set out to make Lowe wait, just 'in the moment'.
That last 30 seconds or so I thought Preston would score. We went from having a free kick right by the R block corner to PNE having a succession of throw ins and then a worldy cross field pass which suddenly put them on the front foot and we couldn't get a touch on the ball. From the centre of the lower Loft and the sun in my eyes it was so hard to see what was going on. I was just dreading seeing the School End top tier celebrate.
