No football over Easter holidays and three week gap to plan a holiday before winter kicks in, the wife is made up. |

He is 100% right but it’s up to the rule makers to bring in changes to negate the issues. We’ve been here before, I could have murdered Alan Hansen & Mark Lawrenson, get 1-0 up then strangle the life out the game with back passes to the keeper to pick up. For the younger ones amongst LFW, this is why you no longer have to witness it, the rule makers outlawed keepers from picking up back passes. The corners and long throw issues could be eradicated if they ban the attacking side from being in the 6 yard box until the set piece is taken. They should also revert back to the old rule whereby goal kicks have to clear the 18 yard box. It was meant to spread the game out but it hasn’t worked, it’s just encouraged the high press and no surprise that bigger stronger players have become the order of the day. |

Fair comment, most of our loans are at clubs fighting relegation from the National League and seem to be punching even at that level. I’m convinced they’ll be an expose at some point, Esqerdinha being revealed as Albert Arkwright, who honed his skills barefoot on Camber Sands. |

Yeah, the one advantage of playing that shit, the opposition eventually take pity on you. Sheffield Wednesday and us in one three game week, lucky bastards. |

A lot of disenchanted players out there first half, a manager with any confidence in himself would have removed the left back before JCS sent him into isolation. Can’t help wondering if a dressing room coup at half time had Vale shuffled into LB, he played that role at Bristol. Starting to puzzle if many are seeking the sanctuary of the treatment room. |

We can’t keep giving players a free pass because of their age, he is simply not equipped to play football at this level. Send him on as many loans as you like, it ain’t going to happen. |

Indeed, it’s insane. Esquerdinha should be nowhere near a Championship game. I don’t care about the injuries excuse, after his first fifteen minutes of an abomination of a performance, JCS sent him up the wing and the entire team refused to pass to Esquerdinha. As for Saito playing in front of him, words fail me. The manager is on thin ice. |

I’m intrigued by what feast of non football we will dish up on Saturday without Madsen. Ideally we’ll both play in red and white shirts so it’ll at least give the impression we’re passing to our own players. |

Funny one, Richard Thompson, I always saw him as the architect of our downfall. I did business with the club in his era, I won’t go into the story again, but behind the scenes an absolute clown show. 5th in the Premier League when I’d had enough, club clearly heading for a major fall. Glad just to retain my love for the team. Gregory was the man, perfect for this club. When the cats away, the mice will play, none more so than at LR. |
 | Forum Reply | Is it time to give Jimmy a rest ??? at 07:48 26 Feb 2026
Never give Jimmy a rest. Jimmy doesn’t need a rest. Jimmys like a 1970’s centre back, he even looks like a 1970’s centre back. Jimmy knows a dislocated shoulder just needs a little rub. Jimmy just wants to play football. All the time. Non stop. Even in his sleep. Leave Jimmy alone. |

We’ve been taken apart by pass and move sides time and again, Coventry, Ipswich, Boro, Southampton. Injuries or otherwise, Stephan has got to become aware that there are sides we have to set up to contain and his 4-2-3-1 doesn’t do that. The defence lost their heads last night but, when your front four are so inexperienced at this level, savvy teams will destroy us. Some will learn from this but there are those that won’t and need to be weeded out fast. |
