Great states but poor EDB got chucked in when things were tough so, context maybe different.
Can you tell us about Hodge? I have missed some obvious news, was Hodge injured for the last few months and that's why he was not on the bench or something else? Was he sent back early.
He scored a goal, was on the sub's bench, started another, I think and then disappeared. I do notice that Hodge and Uncle are never in the same place at the same time. hmmmm
Sorba Thomas stats look amazing for a relegated team. But I noticed that the goals he's scored are all against teams in the bottom half, like Rotherham, for example.
Also, when he played against us, he looked decent against ... Drewe. Before I would have said yes, but I am in two minds about him now.
No, it was the away squad, as in those days, they limited them to 16. The team would get in before Saturday at a local hotel, so the journo just asked the manager who was in squad 16.
From that, you could roughly work out what the team would be, who was injured and not available and so on. Also they would be asked is Ferdinand fit? And the manager would say not 100%, which then meant he would be on the subs bench and so on.
If I was a L1 manager and I needed a RB, I would snap him up.
He won't cost anything and will always graft. He might be better than L1 level, and you have a quality player for almost nothing who will be grateful for the call-up. Unlike Roberts and Laird who were onto their agents for a move 2 months ago.
The science was done, and Kevin Gallen was involved.
As they say in the video, if the penalty is taken properly, then it's unsavable, even if the keeper knows which corner it's going in out of the four.

Also, I noticed that the best pen takers, the ones who have the highest score ratios, all hammer their pens. Ray Stewart a player from West Ham in the 80s/90s always hit them in the same place every time, but it was hit hard and so fast that even though all the keepers knew it was going there, they could not save it.
This shuffle is trying to get the keeper to dive early, and then somehow, using your amazing skill, you put it the other way. If I was a keeper and saw certain players doing this, I would start faking my dive early and then go the other way, also gives them time to possibly save the one down the middle.
I am waiting for a keeper in like the World Cup to save a pen down the middle by booting it straight back out in contempt to really make the taker look foolish.
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.
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!
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.
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.
