Buffy, all joking aside, what do you think of Legohead these days? The football, to say the least, is a lot more pragmatic than it used to be, nearer George Graham and Whinger…
Oh, nice goal by the Palmer fella… he’s a baller for sure…

Half an hour of the Jammy Todgers (hopefully Nepolean will make an appearance, Wednesday night, the sheep are all in for Winter, what’s else has he got on his plate?) before the 2nd best game of the week, best put the kettle on…

Good question…. first of all, if either Maureen or Conte were going to “guarantee” success with their brand of football, us Spuds (or at least most of us) would have ripped your arm off and whacked you with the wet bit… I’d take 38 x 1-0’s… but for whatever reason neither gentleman were delivering, or even looked liked possibly delivering “guaranteed” success… so that went the way it went.
Now, considering your question, I’ve been a Spud since the very early 80’s, and I can count the number of occassions we’ve been “challenging” for the title with 2 fingers, back in the early 80’s, and flirting when Poncho was around… as optimistic as a football fan can be, you also have to be a realist too. Most fans of most clubs will tell you whether they think you’ve got a chance for the title or not (I’d be “Not”, before a ball was kicked), so you’re left with the hope of a decent Cup run or two, and maybe qualifying for Europe and hopefully the CL…
This then, basically, leaves you with the hope of least watching your team “have a go” in every game… and that normally means trying to score more than the other.. i.e. entertaining!! It’s certainly more fun watching side try and score a call than trying to defend a lead, that’s for sure!

Getting the right manager is just as big a gamble as getting the right players and there’s no guarantee it’s going to work. As already mentioned above, managers can suck at one club, take over the world at another, just as players go from one club to another…there’s a fair amount of luck involved, even with a ton of due diligence…..
As for Angie, I think even the most Bruce Willis of Spuds fans know deep down we’re never going to when the League with Angie, but I do think with a fit squad we’re capable of a Cup or two (in fact, we’ve more chance of winning the CL than the PL!)…

3p’s… I think Nuno’s downfall at Spuds was because he was trying to follow the same Maureen plan, i.e. keep it all very tight and compact, and hope Sonny/Harry produced enough magic up top… the problem was it was both dire football and we didn’t have the players at the back to keep the clean sheets… chuck in the same players who were fed-up with Maureen getting very quickly feed-up with Nuno… and there you go… vaguely remember a lot of 0-0’s, and 0-1’s, with the occassional 1-0 chucked in… us fans never took to him and it was an uphill struggle from about game 5 of his tenure… shame, he seemed a likable enough fella… happy it’s working out for him….
Come on Waspy, have a pint of optimism for breakfast for a change… 🙂
I bet you wouldn’t go and watch the bus parade “in case the bus breaks down”…

7 wins in a row, in all comps, cyber chum, Nuno is in with a shout for Manager of the Season I think! And they have a pretty easy run-in, last 8 games….. I really do fancy their chances for Top4. Always had a soft spot for them, being a big Cloughie fan….

Everytime I watch the Goonies play, they seem to be set up to a) win free-kicks so they can go with one of their “rugby” style set peices… 5 men run towards to the ball, 4 to block and 1 to head… (amazed they get away with it as often as they do!) or b) keep it tight and rely on a little piece of magic from one of their “better” players…
It will get them Top 4, as they do have some of the “better” players who can provide such little moments of magic, but it will never win them the title… not in the Prem at any rate. Too many other well organized teams who can “low-block” and keep them at arms length…
(They’ll bet us 6-2 on Wednesday now, you watch! LOL!!)

Driving home from the nippers handball game going… “still 0-0?”… “still 0-0?”… “still 0-0?” and then we score 3 in 15 minutes when nobody was paying attention… no idea if we were worth it or not!!
Anyway, the Goonies? They say imitation is the most sincere form of flattery, but I thought they hated Stoke, let alone like them? I mean, falling over and relaying in set-pieces?? Is that what 5 years of Legohead gets you?
