Reply | Two home games against the bottom two - Six points ???
at 20:28 31 Dec 2025
I voted 5 points over the 4 games, which would mean a draw and a win in these two. Games never pan out the way you think - if we get 6 points from both I'll be delighted of course. Should we aim for 6 - yes, should we expect it? I'm not putting any money on it. |

Good news - I've said before he add some crucial goals but also you can see how positive he is towards his team-mates and his workrate on the pitch is superb - definitely the right sort as they say! |

Ian Evatt, admitedly quite a while ago, also not really appreciated, ended up playing for Blackpool in the PRemier League.
Now managing Blackpool - do we have many other explayers as managers? |

I think out of the options I prefer this - but a big ask for thr the two CBs, with a very raw leftback next to them as well.
I guess we have been training with this in mind, so hopefully they are relatively ready whatever the formation. |

Sometimes you see the lineup and wonder what is happening, and post game you think what a tactical genius the manager is - let's hope it's one of those games. That's a lot of changes at the back for sure, be interesting to see what the actual formation is, whether we stick to 4 at the back or have gone for 3/5 at the back.
Good chance for Morrison to play.
Strong looking bench. |

I think what you can say about Smyth is he contributes some impotant goals (not loads, but important ones), and he seems to really add to the team spirit which is not to be underestimated (see Leivester...). I'd definitely like us to keep him to the ebnd of the season.
That and he has pace which is important now to how we play, counter and press. |

He was more than booed if I remmber, there was a loud rendition of him being something that thymes with tanker. Cue the hatrick.
After scoring the hatrick, he was subbed off, and I think was then applauded as he went off.
As for Marti I wouldn't boo him. |

Some talk on his thread about a keeper, but can't see it happening.
Nardi, Walsh and Hamer (assuming we keep him until the end of the season) will fight it out for the No1 spot.
Next season I think Murphy Cooper will return and possibly be No1, fighting it out with Walsh possibly, assuming we release Hamer and Nardi. Salamon will then go out on loan like Murphy Cooper has and then hopefully is ready for first team in a season or two. |

Absolutely this. We seem to be going about things the right way, buying with an eye for development and future sales, and incrementally making the squad better each year.
We can't go and spend a shedload, not get promoted, and then be back to trawling the bottom of the barrel for free transfers etc.
Patience is key, despite temptation! |

HI Brian, I did ane Annapurna circuit way back in 2001, 17 days walking (mostly up, 3 days down and 1 rest day for acclimatisation at 3,600m or so). Unbelievable experience, when I did it basically no coms or smart phones also so you felt really cut off. I didn't do the Everest base camp which I understand is more up and down over Valleys, whilst Annapurna is more of a gradual climb up most of the way. There were basically no heated showers when I went, so the good news is there was never a queue for the shower as the water was just above freezing!
Also some amazing white water rafting, you can do 3 or 5 day ones camping on the side of the river at night - again amazing, and there was aparticularly vicious one day one!
Lovely people, great food, momos to die for.
My list I've also wanted to see Petra in Jordan, and go to Lebanon. One of my best firends is lebanese but I'd love to go for a week there. It's a shame it's so messy there now.and South America for a year when I retire or win the lottery. [Post edited 5 Dec 2025 9:56]

I thought it was a joke when I first saw that, maybe Ronaldo can hand it over to him, though Infantino will probaly shove everyone out of the way to be closer to his new best friend.
Can't wait for the speech. |

I must admit he has surprised me. I thought he'd be great at the press and giving us a different option up front with pace, but more of a supporting act to Kone. Really pleased for him, works so hard, and brilliant he is getting these important goals. |

If it doesn't work out for Marti there, I think he'll get another chance somewhere in England but will be on thin ice.
Lookiing from outside I think it would be viewed as great first season for us, average second season and left under a cloud.
I don't understand what's happening at Leicester at all but I suspect the view from outside would be that they should be doing better than they are due to budget et (rightly or wrongly).
I think he'll have to pick / choose / accept his next appointment carefully (if it comes to that).
With all that said, table it still really tight, they could win 3 games and be in the playoffs so I'm sure it's really panic stations yet.
I'd like to see him do well, but not as well as us! |

If true, very sad to see him go. Like others loved watching him and it;s always good to have ex-players like him around the club.
I met him very briefly a month or so ago at the ground. Came across as a really good person to have around, personality that people warm to, positive etc. Seemed very popular in the other interactions I saw.
Seems a real shame. I hope he goes on to find somewhere else he does well at. Definitely not a fan of this move, however it's come about. |

I guess you have Morgan - did he come in end of Les or start or Nourry? He is definitely in the can make it, and you might say has already made it to an extent.
But yes generally we need to cool anticipation, but it's nice to dream! |
