There are fans that would staunchly support "givin 'im tiiiiiime" even if we went down year after year,Ange's first 5 seasons are free hits, then we'll really be cooking. And if we ain't, we'll sack him and give another manager 248 free hits. Unless it's Nuno.
Nothing surprises me with this club. Especially with the fact that Solanke has missed like 3 games in two seasons with Bournemouth and has already exceeded that in a third of our season.Little bit coincidental though that he was out after that obvious groin strain he got on Thursday, though.
Would you really be surprised if he misses the next 2 at least?
When we win he's a genius. When we lose the players aren't good enough.I predict that Ange will coach a win regardless of whether players execute it.
I'm still trying to figure out what is keeping Mikey Moore out.Nothing surprises me with this club. Especially with the fact that Solanke has missed like 3 games in two seasons with Bournemouth and has already exceeded that in a third of our season.
Ange said he’s ill, not injured so we wil have to see. For the record I reckon he might miss Bournemouth.
GCSEsI'm still trying to figure out what is keeping Mikey Moore out.
I reckon it could be chicken pox, growing pains or maybe he's teething?
I vote someone says this in every match thread. Then we should win them all.
8.15pm is definitely too late to be out for him.
Is there a trophy for that?I predict that Ange will coach a win regardless of whether players execute it.
I'm sure his Angebois could make one for him.
We play Chelsea this SundayChavs have to travel to Kazakhstan before they play us. Normally that might be an issue, but because they have about 500 players nobody that will start against us will even be on the plane.
OR:When we win he's a genius. When we lose the players aren't good enough.
Surely if the players weren't good enough we would never win.
OoooorOR:
When we lose he's not good enough. When we win it's the players who put in good performances.
Surely if Ange wasn't good enough then we would never win?
See, we can all do that mate, it's not adding anything to the discussion as its hyperbolic, polarised nature is not actually reflective of reality, or what anyone on here genuinely thinks or says.![]()
Well that's certainly much more discussion-worthy than what you said before, I'll accept that as a valid starting point for conversation at least.Ooooor
he only has one plan that sometimes works and sometimes doesn't...
I'm normally pretty positive and 'glass half full' when it comes to us, I guess the only reason I'm feeling a bit down right now is that poor performances have been getting more frequent. In my opinion (others may disagree), we deserved far more points than we had by the end of September - for me, our performances deserved to beat Newcastle and Leicester, and get at least a point against Woolwich. Since then, it's not just that we've dropped points, it's that we've fully deserved to drop points - Palace, Ipswich, Fulham, all really poor performances. Statistically (for me anyway) we couldnt' go on playing that well and not winning, so something had to give. Unfortunately, it's the performances that have changed, not the results.
And are these "fans" in the room with us now?There are fans that would staunchly support "givin 'im tiiiiiime" even if we went down year after year,
I bet you Levy would sell our next trophy to metal-scrapping pikeys from Romford
