Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!
Perhaps I’m the fool here but based on seeing the people on the other side to me (Claret and Booze for one) I think this is all going to look pretty pathetic come the end of the season. What we can agree on is under Moyes we have had more success in terms of league position and trophy winning than ...

Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!
Can you hand on heart say the last three years have been excellent , did you really enjoy our league performances for large parts of last season , have you really enjoyed our league performances this season, taking into account we've been hit for 3,4,5 and 6 goals in the last couple of months. The ...

Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!
Fella you just don't get it.. We are sick and tired of the style of football the attitude the negative tactics the constantly being told to be happy with the situation and I've won a third rate European trophy for you so be thankful! Frankly I'd take watching Luton Town every week over the **** we ...

Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!
What I’ve not understood from the Moyes Out crowd is do you believe this squad is better than 8th and Europa Round of 16 quality? Personally I don’t think squad is top ten in the league by any stretch, there are 4/5 players that are top draw but the wider squad is imbalanced and lacking in depth eve...

Re: Nottingham Forest v West Ham United : match thread
I'm not a Moyes Out guy, I think what he has achieved with the teams we've had last couple of years speaks to him being a good manager. However, when you get spanked 6-0, the way a team responds really really matters to my mind. The bad loss is one thing, but you don't lose a dressing room on that s...

Re: Nottingham Forest v West Ham United : match thread
Intrigued by the comments about us looking good in this game. I guess we've not looked hapless but aside from that awful Antonio run and nothing, I've not thought we were going to score all game. Kudus getting battered out the game, Bowen a non-factor at the moment. It's not that we're playing terri...

Re: January transfer window
I do think new signings are a bit like wanting a new toy as a kid on here sometimes. The desperation to have one is far outweighed but what that signing actually is. If we’d said the name Osman at the start of January I suspect 99% of us wouldn’t have a clue who he was. Now it’s a complete failure t...

Re: January transfer window
I’m a couple of pages late but think an important question for now and the summer is squad composition. We currently have 3 players who aren’t in the starting XI that play predominantly on the left wing for us. So letting Benny and Fornals go (which will break my heart more than a little) and replac...

Re: January transfer window
Phillips makes all the sense in the world. A better more solid midfield, makes the CBs life easier and frees them up to step wider to help cover runs. Something Aguerd and Mavropanos do well, the mistakes aside of course. This allows your full-backs to be more attacking and offer more width. Which i...

Re: Atmosphere
I sit at around the halfway line in Billy Bonds so to give some context for what you’re calling the bollox Olympic clapping it’s almost never that intentionally . It’s usually trying to get in time with the claret and blue army and clap/sing along with it. The issue is it’s so offbeat by the time it...

Re: Burnley FC v West Ham United - Match Thread
Do we have the worst record in the first 10 minutes after half time in the league? Feels like everytime we go in we come out sloppy and poor.

Re: Israel
I’ve largely avoided this thread as I don’t see any value in getting into a personal argument in such a contested issue. However I read on here that Israel accepted a two state solution and I think we need to challenge distruth everywhere we see it. I made reference to this in my previous post but a...

Re: Israel
Same old terrorist sympathisers justifying Hamas and the right to "protest" I see. I'd have more respect if you just came out and said "I don't like Jews", rather than your lilly livered attempts at being pro democracy. I’ll come out and say I don’t like you if it helps. Anyone ...

Re: Israel
Do you think Hamas should immediately release the ~200 Israeli hostages it is holding, and that Israel has a right to exist? Yes. I think the Oslo Accords should be honoured. I think dropping a bomb on a refugee camp is a war crime and Netanyahu should be tried for it. If Israel could find a leader...

Re: Israel
For clarity, I am NOT objecting to them protesting. I AM objecting to them protesting at Liverpool St Station. Its a major transport interchange, and as such to impact it's operational capability is an offence under S7 2023 Public Order act. As someone who has proudly attended each of the marches o...

Re: Summer 2023/24 Transfer Thread
It’s still very early in the day so every chance there is something we can jump on later in the day, but it does seem nothing more happening. This seems odd given a week or so ago moyes was saying he wanted a couple more in. Seems to me we are short a CM, a full back, and a striker. Perhaps CM with ...

Re: Summer 2023/24 Transfer Thread
As the one suggesting Paqueta in the tip of a diamond I’ll explain my thought process on two fronts for why I feel he is best suited there not as a RCM/LCM in that shape. Firstly, it’s what all of you said he’s a grafter that puts in a shift. Counter intuitive I know, but our biggest area of weaknes...
