    In fairness, this should scare us both :tearsofjoy: :tearsofjoy: :tearsofjoy: (sent in good humour BTW)

    Come in Billy, such a cheap response. Whenever within a sniff of a final, or in one, you do whatever you can to win it. Overall, it is a philosophy I believe in. How about you?

    Really good until we forgot how to defend. Ironically, we were sitting deeper than we had been for both goals, particularly the second.

    Another disparaging, derogatory response. Regardless... 1) I won't remember it, I'll continue to believe in it as the way football, and this club, should be. 2) Of course! Win semis and finals in any way possible, especially with so many key players injured.

    “The great fallacy is that the game is first and last about winning. It is nothing of the kind. The game is about glory, it is about doing things in style and with a flourish, about going out and beating the other lot, not waiting for them to die of boredom.” Danny Blanchflower Never forget...

    I didn't blame Frank mate, I stated that as I understood it, Eze was never at the top of Frank's 'wanted' list.

    The ball slipped out of his hands in the 94th minute. I don't think it's comparable at all. Frank himself said 2-0 and the game would've been done. Bergvall in a two is playing a more natural game for him where he can get on the ball and carry from deeper positions. You are (of course) entitled...

    On the contrary, I think people acknowledged some green shoots in the first-half, but pointed out how in the second-half there was a reversion to caution.

    For three years? You're actually suggesting that for three years, we were played by a player and his agency (one we have close ties with)? I think that is virtually impossible, unless we're talking about incompetance on an enormous scale. There is much to be seen in the Parrish/Levy relationship...

    Respect for your opinion, I will say that final sentence? Speaking personally, it is wildly off-base. Anyone thinking like that would not just be an idiot, they'd be supporting an individual over the football club. I know absolutely no supporter who thinks like that.

    For three years we repeatedly scoped this player. As I understand it, the annual unsettling of him tinkled Parrish off. We'd flirt but never actually look close to paying the money. This past summer he was on the list again and TF reportedly said he'd rather others as he was reportedly concerned...

    Whoever was behind the release clause -and the information subsequently imparted regarding it - fudged up somewhere. They obviously did not know the full scope of the clause, or else Marinakis could not have pulled that stunt.

    As I understand it, both Eze and Simons were discussed very early, however Frank wasn't as keen as others based on how he wanted to play. Frank wanted MGW. We fudged that up. By the time he had come around to Eze we simply weren't clinical enough to get it done and allowed the backdoor to swing...

    I would absolutely agree with this except time and time again, when an opportunity presents itself, he doesn't take the 'risk'. Take Sunday. 1-1. He brings Palhinha on. It is the perfect opportunity to use Palhinha for what he is -an expert closer- and place either Gray or Bergvall with him to...

    I agree with so much of what you've said. The last question is key. And I suppose the answert lies in what sort of club the ownership want us to be (beyond a winning one, which we all want).
