On the strength of today's performance, and I don't mean just the joke penalty, he would struggle to control a park match. The man should be immediately suspended and re-trained. But will it happen? Of course not!
Now Wigan have sacked Owen Coyle! Lose three games in a row and you're out! How long before a manager gets sacked after his team only draw? It all seems to be getting even more ridiculous.
Having been a referee at a senior level for many years, I usually find myself standing up for them at the Amex. However, today's was pathetic. Yes, he got a lot of decisions right- but then so he should. That's the easy bit.It was his total inability to deal with Millwall's blatant time-wasting...
One item not in the Queen's Speech, but which is now likely to be introduced, is the creation of a new time zone around Manchester. This will be variable in length but will basically see all clocks in the city either put back or forward depending on what is happening in Manchester United's...
Can someone with responsibility for transport please explain why some of the buses turn round at the Bevendean turning and don't go to Mithras House? Today, for example, most of the buses go straight on but at least one didn't. This wasn't the first time it has happened but if it is to be...
One of the worst of the season. Not a difficult game to referee, especially once Wolves went one down, but he was totally inept. Completely failed to spot pushing by both sides and generally gave the impression that he hadn't got a clue! Not helped by the official on the East Side who was...
The caterers are pleased to announce that a new pie will available for the final league match of the season. Known as "The Suarez". it will be full of fleshy meat with a real crunch and a chewy skin just under the crust.
If it is as successfulas the one trialled in Holland a few years ago...
We don't know that he did and probably never will. But have none of those slagging him off never been offered another job? We have a manager who we think is good and who, quite clearly, other clubs admire. One day he will move on - hopefully, for his sake and ours, it won't be because he's been...
Time after time, and not just tonight, we pass the ball squarely across the back four, presumably looking for an opening, but most of the time it gets pushed forwards about twenty yards then comes back. Tonight Watford demonstrated, with devasting accuracy, the alternative- a quick break with...
To the Amex Stadium on December 18th for this Championship fixture which has been brought forward from Boxing Day. It's a cold, frosty evening and a crowd of no more than 18000 is expected for this fixture between two of the league's bottom six. Indeed, home side Brighton haven't won for more...
Hi there. Back in July you suggested there would be news about a new site during the season. As we are now about a quarter of the way in, is there any news about this? The queues are getting longer, especially for Mill Road and with so many evening games, those of us travelling from the west are...
We don't seem to have any alternatives when opponents refuse to roll over.
Why?
Having players out injured? CMS and Bruno have been the "stand-out" players so far this season and we've certainly missed them in the last two home games.
No real alternatives on the bench? Last night it was really a...
Reports that referee Mark Halsey ( excellent at the Amex this season) and his wife, both recent cancer victims, were abused online by Liverpool supporters after yesterday's game. They just don't get it do they? Want everyone else's support and sympathy but are quite happy to dish out the abuse!
If, as is beginning to seem more and more likely, we sign no-one other than Orlandi, does anyone actually believe we are stronger than this time two days ago? (i.e. before Noone was sold). If we're not, what was the point of selling him?
Are there likely to be any improvements or additional park and ride sites for the new season, particularly since there will be several thousand more people travelling to matches?
