I know what you mean, and I would agree with your words above, but I was talking about all matches having a genuinely competitive intent to them, at least as far as the fans, players and managers are concerned, (not so the PL administrators and PGMOL of course for reasons that we are all...

As I've tried to explain, it's not about the PL or Masters, it's about professional football clubs doing things professionally in a league that requires competitive matches . If we simply turn up at Newcastle with too many youth players in the team and lost heavily we would rightly be criticised...

I think the PL will have reminded all clubs about the importance of fielding a strong team in the final fixtures in order to secure the integrity of the competition, especially in matches where the outcome will have wider implications. Certainly, Chelsea, Villa and Forest would be entitled to...

That's a magnificent article.

Only if they are oblivious to how much they have spent on their squad compared to ours (which is actually possible!)

I know, and I guess your guess is a real possibility.

Moyes inherited the same players that Fergie had. How did that go?

Moyes will do what's best for himself first and Everton second, look at how he refused to sign his contract before leaving for Man U. The idea that he will go on to have supervision over the direction of football at this club makes me feel sick.

10 points:- 3 v Bournemouth 3 v Villa 2 v Man U 2 today

I agree I agree with you, but Moyes likes the ball in the air, with both Fellaini and Soucek key for his source of goals playing as 10s, or box to box players, Cahill too, over the years (and persisting currently with Doucoure as a poorer version of them). Didn't he also preside over Man U's...

It's not irrelevant to the point I was originally commenting on, which was a bit back in the thread.

I hope he doesn't cock up the in-game management again like he did yesterday, or we won't have moved on that much since our last few managers. I hope I'm wrong but that deja vu feeling of Moyes and his stubborn game plans has started to creep into my bones. Obviously he fully deserves to be...

Yes, but you're missing the point because signing him meant we got £10m for Dobbin which is daylight robbery.

He didn't actually cost £10m, he cost the approximate equivalent of one Lewis Dobbin, who has been passed around from Villa's squad to WBA's bench to Norwich's bench..... In other words about 3 mill. Bringing him on for 10 minutes a game is tantamount to wasting whatever he has to offer, which I...

Along with 80-90% of our squad

I don't necessarily disagree, but equally he ought to have done a lot better today with the ball when he did have opportunities.

We've been so lucky with his appearance record in the last 3 seasons. Unimaginable what could have happened to us if this type of injury had occurred at crucial times.

Still 5 games for him and others to convince that they can be a part of next season, but considerable improvement will be required.

No they don't. I was raised as a kid in a pub called the Prince Alfred on Rice Lane and lots of good pubs are Prince this or that. So 'The Prince Rupert' is my choice.

Yeah, I thought the same at first, and that's the impression that Intersky wanted to create I believe, making the suite look a lot closer to the stadium than it actually will/would be.
