  1. Dont know if they would be happy with Henry but im sure we would hear similar moans of discontent that Sam got when appointed Everton manager. I just don't see Villa looking at Sam if the decide to sack Bruce.I think they will go foreign
  2. Wouldn't expect their foreign owners to be interested and I reckon the majority of Villa supporters would be against him also. Henry was linked in the summer, I'd expect them to go foreign.Not saying I agree with that,Sam would get their squad promoted
  3. Home defeat for Villa, Bruce has lost the fans there can see the new owners considering a change
  4. Give a few a rest in the cup, come back fresh v Forest and a victory on Saturday will be averaging 2 points a game since coming back from the international break. On paper our next 3 league games are easier than our last three.
  5. Feck it.Come on now lads keep yer heads
  6. Another clean sheet would be nice
  7. He never tried? he walked in front of a on coming traffic and was hit by a lorry wasn't he?.His mental health issues are well documented...what do you know that proves different?Its easy to say i havent got a clue or call him a wrong un. Unless you have absolute proof that he doesnt suffer from serious mental health issues then its bad taste to comment on such an issue like you have. If you have proof fair enough
  8. He may owe people money but clearly the guy has mental health issues, he did try to kill himself, you don't do things like that if you have nowt wrong with you
  9. So the overall tv package rights didnt increase even though Sky can now show all midweek games?
  10. Surely Rothwell will start ahead of Palmer and Armstrong for this one. Rothwell, Dack and Bennett behind Graham
  11. I know mate i read it this morning but every game he has played he has impressed in my eyes, still a bit suprised we haven't seen him at least from the bench the last few games Always looked busy in the games he has played and didn't look to be lacking fitness but i suppose Mowbray see's him everyday in training.With that article i think he will start him tomorrow
  12. Yeah agreed, Mogga has done a great job but some of the stuff he comes out with does leave me scratching my head. I do think something could have gone on between Mowbray and Rothwell, especially against Villa i found it strange he was'nt brought on instead of Brererton. Maybe Rothwell has been a little too insistent that he want's to be playing in the middle of the park that's where he wants to play,and i do think at home especially against the lesser teams he should be given a start in that position, he probably lacks a bit of discipline to start in that position right now against the teams that will attack us more though. If Rothwell doesn't start as one of the three behind the striker on Saturday then i will definitely think something has gone on.
  13. Same team for me although i wouldnt be suprised if Mowbray puts Evans on the bench for this one and keeps Smallwood in. Hopefully Graham isn't too leggy and get through at least an hour's work.
  14. Which is less than an hour so far for the people who hadn't heard of him prior to being linked. My whole point is calling him a bad signing or doesnt look a good player from that is not valid in my opinion. I have no issue with someone saying he had a poor game, or he hasn't had the most impressive of starts although iv seen enough with my own eyes to believe he has massive potential and will add something to this group
  15. The previous season he made 18 appearances so its actually over 50 Not his Dad no or any relation just know a player when i see one
  16. Why is the phrase don't judge him yet meaningless?Of course there are factors at play where he can't be judged one way or the other quite yet. The fact that he is clearly lacking match sharpness. Like Tyrone said moving away from friends and family will take some adjustment just because he cost a few quid doesnt mean that won't take some adjustment and time to get settled like it probably would for any 19 year old. On Nyambe i sit close to 3 lads in their late twenties to early thirties and if he misplaces a pass he gets dogs abuse and one of them in paticular screams that he is useless and can't do anything at every opportunity.
  17. I couldn't put either of them down. Non football but really enjoyed Ronnie O'Sullivan autobiography and Jimmy Whites was laughing to myself the majority of Whites
  18. Paul McGrath best autobiography iv read Recently read the Graeme Souness autobiography which was good although not much dedicated to Rovers. One part i found very interesting was that part of the fall out with Dunn was due to Souness wanting Dunn to play as a holding midfielder whilst Dunn saw himself as a Gazza type
