If you live anywhere in the Commonwealth you are whether you like it or not. It's evening here. Mourning in Australia.

I don't think Powell is good enough for a promotion side. Make of that what you will.

No but Tony Scholes should have been sacked three times over by now.

NORWICH quicker and slicker ,not ONeills fault They're quicker and slicker because everyone knows their role. I think Mikel Allen and Clucas' CVs are so sparkling that MON believes he can just let them get on with it. In reality, there's a complete dilution of responsibility. Strikers don't know where the ball's supposed to be coming from. They each believe they can just take off on a dribble in the middle of the pitch. They run into each other's space all the time and don't look to find space themselves. Absolute fucking inexcusable shite.

Nick Powell playing inside forward on the left... Like, how was that even supposed to begin to work?? What was he expecting to happen there?

None too clever for their 3rd goal was he ? Practically gave up. Didn't we all? Thing is, if I ran a scouting operation and was asked to look for a winger capable of playing in the championship... seeing how that player reacted to being run at in their own box would be high on the list of priorities. If they swatted at them with all the enthusiasm of a clinically depressed elephant in a heatwave i wouldn't go so far as to write their name down.

absoutely mad to bring him in based on what we've seen. surely we could have run a competition in the sentinel if we wanted to find a pacey amateur?

We've got 3 players worth a damn at the club and 2 are out with serious injuries.

That's a reasonable point. Do you think the outcome would have been the same if he had used the word 'murder' instead of 'rape'? Since murder is worse than rape I assume the authorities would have sacked him even faster. But, although the act of murder is worse than the act of rape perhaps the spoken word 'rape' is worse than the spoken word 'murder' when used in this context? My opinion is that he would have got away with 'murder'. I appreciate I'm bringing the mood down here but a family friend was violently raped in her early 20's and it absolutely traumatised her for the rest of her life, she eventually committed suicide several years later. For her, she would have preferred to have been killed there and then, she couldn't cope with the shame of what happened, and the fact that the person in question was never brought to justice. I think the fact that he said it in India as well where this is issue is high on the agenda (it was recently voted the unsafest place outside of Syria and Afghanistan to be a woman mainly because of the threat of rape) just adds to the insensitivity....... Thank you for sharing that. It gave the conversation some much needed perspective.

Wasn’t it changed due to the Lergy? Lergy-19?

Thought he had a bright half, he's no less senseless at times than Powell.

I would pay something to watch SCFC (in fact, I do) but I won't pay £10 a game. I rarely get to a game because that just happens to be the type of fan I am. One observation: football is no longer in a world where it's the only thing going on on a Saturday bar fishing and the cinema. It is competing for punters in a world of free entertainment. People no longer spend their free time in their city, they have the world piped in to their living rooms.
Football has to adapt. And if it means that Tony Scholes and John Obi Mikel need to take a 90% pay cut I'm absolutely fine with that.

Boothroyd is a joke, isn't he? They'd do better with Betty bloody Boothroyd England is a joke period. Everyone's so full of themselves they think they have a god given right to always be the best, and yet for the 50 odd years they've done next to nothing to deliver on that premise. We're still talking just about football right?!

I think some managers think it looks like admitting failure, forgetting that the scoreboard will always betray that particular confidence.

Calvert-Lewin's first full appearance for Everton was against us. He played right wingback.

Obviously glad we’re through and hate to moan after a win but 2 goals in 5 competitive games is very poor. MON says it’s not the system, I tend to disagree 🤷🏻♂️ We created a lot of chances tonight though. Tymon's shot hit the bar, Brown's goal that was disallowed for no reason, Souttar should have stuck his chance away....on another night we'd have scored 3 or 4 in that game no bother. McClean on the left instead of Fox made a massive difference. You must be one of those xG guys 😂
