Our own corners appear a bit of a problem as well.
A bit too much smartarserry sneaking in at free kicks and corners. A direct ball now and again isn't a bad thing.
Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

...which makes on wonder as to why.
probably because he hasn't performed at the level of Bennett and Manning so far? The latter two adapting perfectly to the current system while Cabango hasn't yet. Pretty simple.

Indeed it was. My own fault for suggesting Russ might be wrong.Imagine that .
I am to be taken out on to the patio soon to have my fingers malletted to obviate my posting such crepe.All I have to do is simply follow instructions on here.
Russ is simply gorgeous although his hair is a bit too black and parted on the right. It might be his crown though responsible for that.

What's so difficult to understand about how maybe switching CBs every other game could potentially be a bad idea when we're trying to get the team to form an understanding in a complex system? Especially when our current defensive unit is one of the best in the league at the moment?
This severe victim complex is quite odd. Equating me disagreeing with your point as me attacking you is hilarious

I'm here to entertain ,butt. Less chance of any arguments now as we all love Russ.

Fan eh.
TBH,reading the shite Sun interview ,i want to defend Russ and would against anyone.
He's our Russ.
Anyway,how about a spat about Rugby. Im steaming of late and in good form ;its on rugby forum.I use another name though.
Sadly I am what many would refer to as a massive rugby casual. I could name two or three Wales players maximum. Odd cause I actually like playing rugby more than football but the sport is dull to watch for me

I played both,but not in school a it was rugby only.(Bishop Gore). I was a pretty decent 10 and quick and cocky and could also kick goals but hated and very averse to tacking as I was light for rugby. I coached a local side including my son who was very handy and he played RL at uni. Enjoyed the social side of rugby more.Sportmanship miles better. Fact. Sadly,the game now in Wale is poor standard and aimless kicking the norm.Biggar does this today and we will be mullered. We can run the ball but do we have the gut and inclination. This is where Pivac kills me.
I love Foxy but he is a busted flush,yet selected to start after Priestland had a calming influence against the precious ones .I also pray AWJ retires right now and enjoys the rest of his life.

I had a mate who is a big rugby fan, he reckoned ( I was already 30+) I should join his team because I'd make a good 10. I laughed at him, told him the only sport I'd be playing with him was darts and so it stayed that way. I can catch a ball with both feet but I never quite got the hang of catching a rugby ball! The thought of getting cleaned out by a biy hairy assed forward never appealed to me either.
So I watch rugby, the 6 nations, the WC but not the Autumn games or club rugby.
I went to Bishop Gore too, OHL but by then Football was allowed. I went to a rugby only Primary school where the one and only time I got the "slipper" ws for taking a football in. Deputy head Alan Williams at Dunns Lane Primary, a proper rugby snob he was.
Now Martin has done the hardest miles and got a few dissenters onside it seems some of the gutter press have taken against him. Good, lets develop a siege menatlity, us against the rest of the world and make the Liberty/Swamsea.com a fortress.

Viv Davies was king when I was there and I simply don’t want to play for the school preferring local parks stuff when I left . I got slippered regularly by Ellis Lloyd and seen as a jerk by masters albeit an intelligent one. Problem with me I had the attention span of a truculent toad. No offence meant to any reading this Latin was made very hard byViv.,a character but no longer with us. A macho man who produced a world renowned playwright and author who was very much homosexual.

Was Viv Davies the PE teacher? The head of PE when I was there was Viv Davies...coincidence? He was a jerk too. nearly got me killed, literally.

The strategy of the club is ambitious. It i to become the dominant possession team of the championship. The squad particularly in defence is not what Martin would ideally want in that respect I would expect t see good results mixed with the odd bad thrashing like today until martin can get the most suted players his style demands into the team.
He can do this either by bringing on young prospects Cabango and Cooper (Evans perhaps) or import a European prospect of quality as defence leader that Ashley Williams was. The signing of Rhys Williams suggests Martin was already aware of the squad defensive shortcomings. Manning Bennett and Naugton have been over run a few times away from home. There is an option of an experienced European stopper to come in to control tempo. Liverpool and Chelsea brought in experienced stoppers last season.
