He is absolutely correct. Not really clownish.
They had 3 good chance early doors, they weren't good enough and he has to be optimistic.

Surely if they had scored the 1st chance, the other 2 chances would not have happened

We constantly hear that this is needed even by ex pro's. I personally think it would be worse than it is, the unconscious bias would be through the roof, you see it clear as day when they are pundits or on co comms.

I'm not sure on the quality, but Castore was marketed as a premium sportswear brand - they have a range at Reiss. Has this poor reputation just come from complaints from Villa players about the shirts retaining sweat? Issues seem to be widespread across all their customers. https://www.nssmag.com/e...

Are we sure that the strip will have the Castore brand?

Castore announced yesterday that they had purchased the Umbro brand in the UK but would still be marketing Umbro

Won a couple of trophies worth noting in England - and that was mainly due to COVID
Wouldn't say he's of the level of some others by a long shot

Hilarious! He won the 2 biggest trophies available to win for a club . The Champions league win came in 2019 and had nothing to do with covid.

Brentford are owned by the richest person in Denmark & it’s known that he will bankroll them when needed.

Brentford are owned by Matthew Benham not Anders Holch Povlsen(richest man in Denmark)

Matthew has also recently sold his stake in the Danish club.

Couple of points on this: 2. If City have sold players with buy-back clauses (as has been rumoured with Trafford) to circumvent financial rules, where do the buying clubs stand on assisting their cheating? I don't think this is against the rules, teams have been doing it for years. Villa have done ...

This, Harrington thinks it's Trafford who barge's adebayo.

This is what is now confusing me. With Harrington stating that he thinks it is Trafford who has barged the Luton player, surely this means the mistake was clear and obvious.

I still remember the press conference Burnley held after he left. Cotterill was actually in it, taking part and answering questions. I found it quite bizarre at the time as i had never seen a manager who had just been relieved of their duties, to actually take part in the the club press conference. ...

Thank god i jumped on the ladder when i did.
I've now only got 2 months left on my mortgage and then it's fully paid off. Not bad for a 41 year old.
I must admit though, it was a lot easier when i got my mortgage. I think it was only 5% deposit back then.

Like I said on the PGMOL thread, the media to an extent create the inconsistency in decisions. An incorrect call against the big boys is microanalysed by 'experts' on the TV but the same is not done for the unfashionable clubs. No matter how much people say the club badge means nothing to the man i...

. Thought it was poor to start Trésor on the left as well - Like RV said on another thread, this is how we played and set up in the 2nd half against Fulham. If VK had changed this for the start of the Liverpool game, guaranteed we would have people saying VK shouldn't have changed a winning team.

Raconteur

Maybe ‘cause we were excellent (as was Tresor) in the 2nd half vs Fulham using this exact line up? Odobert scored a cracker drifting in from the right. If he had changed it from that no doubt others would be saying ‘you don’t change a winning team!!’ I have just logged in to like and quote this pos...

Muric, Zaroury, Benson, Al Dakhil, Brownhill just got back in and done well.

You mention Al Dakhil but he started in every game up to and including Bournemouth. Thats 10 games. Benson started against Villa and did nothing.

Luton are giving it a go in time honored fashion of promoted teams. Plenty of endeavour, fight and set piece scrambles to try and stay in the league. We on the other hand are running before we can walk. Taking the game to everyone and doing alright until we get near the box and then don't have a ta...

Is it actual snus that is sold in the UK?
I thought snus contains tobacco. I'm sure the ones retailed in the UK only contains nicotine but no tobacco.

Ferguson got pumped 6-1 by Man City means nothing in isolation.

Hassenhutl 38% win rate in prem

Kompany 0.13% win rate in prem.

The 9-0 scoreline was mainly referenced to counter act your "organise a defence" statement.

If and it's a big if, Jesse Marsch came in and somehow managed to get the same ppg that he had at Leeds would bring in 25.7 more points. This would leave us short of 30 points. You do make a lot of assumptions.

Even though Sheff Utd got tubbed by Newcastle they seem to be able to stay in games much longer than us albeit they’re pretty crap ,we seem to fold as soon as the opposition score ,we had a similar spell when Sean Dyche was here when we nearly always let a goal in just before halftime,it seems to m...

£100m players at present are the ones who have already won the European Cup/Champions League and are going to a club with even more money. Not promising youngsters (however good) from the lower reaches.

They may not get to general sale. That is unless they have more blocks to release.

I also spotted him walking over to the CFS. Was on crutches, a supportive boot and what looked to be some kind of leg brace.

He’s sharing his opinion just like everyone else on this message board has done. You can choose to ignore it in the same way he’ll hopefully choose to ignore others opinions on him.

We’ll see what happens but 1. Depends what system we play 2. Id trust Vinny to try and mould Delcroix into that LB/LCB hybrid role rather than CT (given he’s far more technically proficient).
