But if you dipped a mop in a bucket of shit and then appointed it our new manager, it would be an improvement over Sherwood. Would have liked Moyes though. Really need to get something out of Tottenham tonight. Or at least avoid a thumping. We have the best GD down at the bottom end so need to make sure we don't ruin that.

The Border Terrier Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Its an outrageous, near unbelievable scoreline really. I never thought for one moment any Sam allardyce team could ever be capable of scoring two goals... >I never thought for one moment any Sam allardyce team could ever be capable of scoring two goals... More a reflection on The Blues current defence and Sunderland hit the post twice, so could easily have been leading at 1/2 time. #5 Stones didn't enhance his £30M rating with Sunderland's 1st goal; nor F. Mori with the 2nd. A better team would have 'done for' the home club. A superb left footed cross by Lukaku for the assist with Kone's 3rd goal. And Lukaku's goal reminded me of Ian Rush who did this week in, week out, in his heyday. TBT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

City (home) and Everton (away) up next. Their form over the final 2/3rd's of the season is going to have to be that of a top 6 or 7 side to get enough points to stay up!!! Having said that they are fortunate that there are four sides down there with them struggling badly. I expect Norwich and Bournemouth to go down so it looks like a fight to catch Sunderland and Newcastle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhumsaa Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 A superb left footed cross by Lukaku for the assist with Kone's 3rd goal. I only realised he used the outside of his left foot when I watched the replay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

notwell Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Yeh, fair play to Villa. Amazing result all things concerned. Leicester are the team to watch. I think i'm right in saying that if we did a league table of the last 23 or 24 games Leicester would be top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everybody waiting for their 'bubble to burst'...only for them to win the 1st Division (PL) and then the European Cup (CL). With non-A listers in Larry Lloyd, John McGovern, Archie Gemmill, Kenny Burns, Martin O'Neill etc. and Cloughie/Taylor at their peak. Those were the days when a good team, well put together, could win things. TBT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notwell Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Yeh, you simply couldn't do that today. Far to much money in the game and the gap between lower Championship (which is where Forest came from in the old 2nd division) to the top of the PL and Europe is 100 times further apart than it was in the 70's. Also, the average playing level/ability of players is higher today IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
