Yip thats the one thing that bugged me about Adam (and its the same with Whittaker at the moment) he always tried to do 1 thing too much. Adam is probably given a different role for Blackpool under Holloway and probably gets more time on the ball in a league that prefers the ball on the deck hence he looks a bit better down south. Rbr - I see what your saying about some being criticised a lot but it comes down to a) some have much more expectations from our team and b) we have been spolit with class players from the time we watched Rangers until as recent as Prso.

For some reason I knew we were going to get celtic. Whats the date for the next round??
-
Who was the commentator anyway?
-
Id rather see him stay and continue his good form to help win us the league than let him go for 300k or 700k TBH. Surley entry into the CL is worth more than those fees. I think Johnny said it earlier - Miller cant win in this situation except for his next pay cheque. He is dammed if he does and dammed if he doesnt in some cases. Im surprised in the whole situation, and seems this decision is out of the managers hands.
-
I think its a terrible decision if we took Boyd back....does anyone actually think being at Boro has improved him? If anything he has got worse. Its a move that smacks of no ambition.
-
Draw for next round: Everton v Chelsea is the stand out. If Leicester could get past Man City Sven going back to another old club in Notts County would be interesting.
-
Newcastle oot to Stephen Age. Nice win on Giggs getting first goal... I couldnt believe my luck when he took the pen.

Pretty much agree with all this bar the final part about the split. Teams in top half should still play same amount as bottom half as the 2 games less would be played at the end of the season where there is no likelyhood of European football. I would prefer just playing everyone twice in a 16 team set up but a split to get an extra OF game would still be good. Also RE the play offs, the only problem with this is seeing Hampden half empty for a play off with Dunfermline v Dundee makes it look like a poor match plus sounds poor on TV. Switch this type of fixture to Easter Road where you wold get a packed 20,000 would create an atmosphere give a better game.

After the midweek results I thought at least 2 from Avram Grant, Carlo Ancelotti, Roy Hodgson and Gerard Houllier would have been sacked, especially Grant and Hodgson. With Chelsea there is something wrong behind the scenes there and Houllier has brought Villa from a top 6 side to a bottom 6 side.

Once again non footballing men making silly decisions. I dont mean that you had to play football to be a football man, most fans talk plenty sense and can see the simple picture but too much business short term decisions get brought in nowadays. Everyman and his dog can see the leagues need cut to 3 divisions with a 16 or 18 team top flight with a 2 up 2 down from the 2nd tier.
-
I well thought we would win yesterday, if anything it says more about us than them as i still cant believe how bad they are. If we win our games in hand we are back on top but yesterday game has left a sour taste in my mouth. Does it make the 3-1 look like a fluke???
-
TBH i thought he was our best player today. He was the only one who a) wanted the ball and b) had a go at them.
-
Scottish greats from my time who Id buy back - Cooper, Dalglish, McLeish, Miller, Leighton, Goram, Gemmill, McCoist, Lambert, Gough, Durrant, Ferguson.....etc...does Boyd deserve to be near any of them?? not a chance! Boyd is a donkey.
-
Garbage. If Arsenal had everyone fit for the last 3 years they would be on 3 in a row. Terry, Fat Frank and a few others got injured and chelsea got found out. Im really enjoying seeing chelsea struggle. Their sub bench against Arsenal was great! Bolton will probably finish 5th
-
Seeing John Terrys face was brilliant at 3-3. Glad to see Chelsea being shown up. On the BBC predictor i had them 11 points behind man utd by now and my mate said i was nuts...not too far off!
-
As a anti-barry ferguson person (2nd spell) I cant believe how much he would walk into the midfield due to talent these days. McCulloch was found out today - he is a fraud. Young Hutton is by far the best midfielder we have and should be playing
-
^ agreed Mike, the centre midfield is so short since Thomson left and made up of Lee "i play anywhere" Mcculloch and Davis who is better on the right. Still wouldnt have Boyd back. If we were resulting 0-0 every week this season then there might be an argument for it but its a no brainer that we are better without him.

All Bheast FC transfer rumours and movement
Gribz replied to Jim White's topic in General Football Chat
He makes Webster look like he has been a success. Darren Anderton played more for Spurs -
What a limited manager he is. 5 good mins at Ipswich and 9 good games at Hearts....the rest is just a shambles
-
And the Appy Ammers are out of the bottom 3 although its still papering over the cracks coz Avram Grant is still not manager material.
-
Your what 22 23? It shows
-
U mean Want?? Heh sorry chief, I never correct folks spelling as Im probably top of the league on here for that but after a few beers it needs to be done. 1 more and Im hitting the town.
-
Ive no fear for this signing at all. Ljungberg was quality for Arsenal in a top notch side but was finished when he was 29/30. He went to West Ham and I watched nearly all the games he played and he was a fraction of what he was at Arsenal. He isnt a play maker and will rely on their other dumplings setting him up playing 1 touch fast stuff which Celtic cant do.
-
He would be a starter for me in a free role. If Naismith is injured then good chance for Weiss to play right wing where he is better.
-
I have a grip, I have watched Rangers this season and enjoyed it from Day 1 in Pre Season Australia when we played 4-3-3 against Blackburn and played them off the park until the last OF game 2nd half etc....away at Pittodrie earlier this season we hit them on the break with cracking goals which Boyd would still have been crossing the half way line. We have more goals and better play due to the boy with sand in his shoes departing! It was good riddance in the summer for me!!. I wanted Novo to stay but we arent even missing him bar squad numbers
