Re: Bftg- Wigan (h)

Delayed BFTG Went expecting very little but came away buzzing. The players wanted it and I thought worked hard. They tried to pull things off which didn’t always work but they never stopped trying which ultimately got us a much-needed win. I don’t think any player played badly. Some played better t...

Re: Bftg- Wigan (h)

1) Typical scary defence moments continue. Why? 2) I take back what I said about Martinez being the best keeper I've seen. Great saves but that ridiculous throw out for their second? He does it too often. Still the best keeper we've had in a long time. 3) Loader showed the fight and passion that wen...

Re: BFTG Ipswich

I wonder if everyone would be getting the same high ratings had Barrow not scored or had one of their chances paid off. Sorry for the downer but seemed like typical Reading. Go one up, totally balls and and let them back in with a late goal. Stupid passing out from the back needlessly inviting pres...

Re: BFTG Sheffield United

Away performance against one of the best team in the division we were never going to get anything from.

Early goal, ricochet. 4-0 defeat.

Big deal.

Heads up.

We move on.

Let’s concentrate on the important matches. WNG.

Re: BFTG - Blackburn

How can there be no benefits for the buying club? I'm confused. To exaggerate the point to demonstrate: isn't it obvious that if Oliveira scores 50 goals his price would rocket and even if we wanted him at the end of the season we wouldn't afford his £30million price tag. But as a price for, let's ...

Re: BFTG - Blackburn

Well you think it’s a ‘smart’ system, so we probably disagree there ! I don’t know if you are right or wrong and unless we get sight of the contracts I guess we can’t be sure. I think the system you have explained is somewhat pointless and you’ve not really highlighted any benefits for the potentia...

Re: BFTG - Blackburn

As I said, we disagree. As you describe it there seems no benefit to the buying club. The selling club have a done deal at (probably) an inflated price but can easily get out of it if a better offer comes in. I can understand the variant that Stranded mentioned of a loan deal that automatically kic...

Re: BFTG - Blackburn

Ok this is going around in circles. The "option" we have on the loan is most likely a fixed price agreement. Norwich have negotiated with us a fair price that, upon completion of his loan, we (if we want to) can offer. This price is agreed. Norwich have to accept it as technically they ha...

Re: BFTG - Blackburn

I actually like us playing out from the back. Realise I'm in a bit of a minority, but we do it properly now and it creates opportunities. Very little of that horrible Stam ball where we bobbled it slowly from one side of the defence to the other That fantastic move at the start of the second half a...

Re: BFTG - Blackburn

+ I didn't realise it was Swift who assisted for our winner.

1 goal
1 assist.

Perhaps Swift should have been my star man !

Re: BFTG - Blackburn

I really just do not get how anyone can see any of Martinez's performances since he joined us that way. Try running back through game footage and producing evidence to support those claims. I'm pretty sure I can guess what our defenders would say as well. Rubbish scuffs when he hoofs it? :shock: Ex...

Re: BFTG - Blackburn

Kelly was generally very poor and I was one of the few calling for him to come in :oops: I think I counted 3 forward passes by him and everything else was sidewards if he wasn't losing the ball. Harsh to pick on one poster in particular, but in the interest of avoiding fake news, I feel obliged to ...

Re: BFTG - Blackburn

I thought Eja was poor, always running side ways and backwards, Kelly was equally poor but at least gets at people at wins tackles which I can't recall Eja doing. Hehe I literally saw the opposite. :lol: We were all mentioning the number of time Eja won the ball in the middle and that Kelly was use...

Re: BFTG - Blackburn

Re: Those were the days...

Coppells Lost Coat Think keeping the same 11-16 players fit for 46 games helped quite a bit that season. We were absolute machines.
Iconic and heroes for RFC


True. Conversely our poor form in recent years has coincided with a ridiculous list of injuries.
