Re: We're ManchesteROFL United, we do what we want

I guess from a Man Utd perspective the big disappointment must be that they didn't get undone by a 4th division side that just lumped the ball forward and relied on set pieces-they were outfootballed, at least in the first half and , but for an inept lino, would have gone 3-0 down. Obviously like mo...

Re: RUMOUR: Reading in talks over Welcome to Wrexham style docuseries

Does feel like a bit of a damp squib without a big name behind it, Wrexham have Ryan Reynold, Brum have Tom Brady, who exactly do we have? Get Winslet or Gervais on the board. Clooney lives down the road, get him as well. Can any of them play up front? One has a lot of front...........and some migh...

Re: Matt Ritchie

And on SSN We’re getting a chunky squad now. After all the nonsense about having 5 players to start the season we’re now looking at the likes of Ryan, Stickland, Rushesha, JOP, Sackey, Osho, Spencer not getting a look in at all Ritchie is a good player but I’m confused as to where he fits in. He fi...

33 years old, played for Forest, Bristol City and Swansea among others. 1 goal (and not that many more games either) in 2 years. Played a handful of games for Coventry last year and joined Plymouth on a free in May. Plymouth spent £1.2m on Laurent Tolaj (ex Sion, Aldersh*t, Brighton) from Port Vale...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Port Vale (h)

Would we have signed Williams if O'Connor hadn't been injured so quickly and with the end of the transfer window approaching? Possibly. So far, so good with Williams who is a bit older than O'Connor but has generally played at a higher level than him and has helped our defence look just that little ...

Re: RUMOUR: Reading in talks over Welcome to Wrexham style docuseries

Maybe it is one year too late. The story last season would have been how a team and its fan base united against the odds (no money paid for transfers, points deductions and a Chinese owner never around and doing so little to further advance the ambitions of the club leading to a fraught relationship...

Re: LOLiverpooLOL - Next Season

I think Slot was spot on after the game. If Liverpool can't sort out their leaky defence they won't get near the title. Can't rely on scoring 3 or 4 every week. Gravenbech suspended for the first game Macca not fit enough yet (missed the Newcastle game) Two new full-backs being bedded in Konate dis...

Re: MATCHWATCH : AFC Wimbledon (h)

We seem to have a growing issue with crosses into our box. We always seem to leave someone unmarked, or marked by someone a foot shorter. Our team tonight is very short, Rushesha, Garcia, Okine-Peters... diddy. Abrefa, Lane, Ryan and Doyle aren't huge either. And now we have 5ft 8in jack Marriott a...

Re: Weekend Football

3 very well crafted goals from Liverpool last night and for all the huff and puff of Newcastle they only had 3 shots on target. There were signs of it last season but it is getting clearer that Slot likes the game to be "managed" rather than trying to really press home an advantage when on...

Re: Speculationish Tyler Robert’s and Jack Marriott

There are only 3 good instances that I can remember of defenders moving successfully to a centre-forward position:- Malcolm MacDonald Warhurst Chris Sutton. The position is so different, not least because of the extra running involved and the change usually only happens out of desperation for just ...

Re: LOLiverpooLOL - Next Season

For all the attacking options open to him ,Slot has a selection problem for the game at Newcastle tonight. Frimpong is unfit and both Gomez and Bradley are thought to be not at 100%. His choice of Endo to play there the other day in the second half didn't work. Curtis Jones has filled in there a cou...

Re: Speculationish Tyler Robert’s and Jack Marriott

Yeah tbh I’d rather us go for someone 6 inches taller and more physical. Why Aneke despite a not especially impressive recent record made some sense Stick Burns up top, such as we have at kitchen sink time. To be fair to him, he was a handful. I'll post assuming that your suggestion wasn't just ton...

Re: Speculationish Tyler Robert’s and Jack Marriott

I feel the same about the player and he is yet another shorty. Wareham never filled me with confidence nor did Simon Cox or Vydra etc., all too small to play as the solo target man and presumably we should be looking at bigger and stronger rather than smaller and quick. Marriot is not very big. Yea...

Re: Speculationish Tyler Robert’s and Jack Marriott

I mean it may work a bit but my expectations of what he could bring would be pretty low. Never really rated him and just seems to have bounced around teams in the lower divs without huge success in recent years I feel the same about the player and he is yet another shorty.

Re: Hunt out.

May just be an impression but it feels like the teams change a lot more season by season in L1 It’s why I don’t really take the ‘new team needs time to bed in’ as much of an excuse. That seems to be every team in this league to me. And whilst I like the idea of building for next year - Elliott will...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Wycombe Wanderers (a)

One thing the club has done right is to have offered Lewis Wing a good enough contract to make him stay. That's 2 shots against a post v Lincoln, a cracking goal v Wimbledon and now the cross for the first goal and another cracker from distance for his goal today. I think Hunt now knows what we all ...

Re: We're ManchesteROFL United, we do what we want

I know about a dozen season ticket holders, 5 or 6 of whom go to pretty much all away games, including Europe, plus maybe another 20 who go to around 10 home games a season when work and ticket availability permits. I'd say they're fairly committed. I hear quite frequent grumbles about VVD plus the...
