Nothing to add to all the armchair punditry, seeing as how i was at the game…but the atmosphere is the best for ages; no one really feared that we’d let the lead slip; the singing, the scarves, the level of excitement was all the best it has been in years…one word of caution though; there will

not much to add to that Dave - except to say that this may have been our best performance of the season…given the quality of the opposition. Green as much to thank for the three points as Wood. Had the great pleasure before the game of meeting a 13-strong trade union deputation to the city

while not disagreeing with anything below much…it is funny how we see things and how stats work…apparently Lasogga is the most effective player in the league when you combine goals scored with goal assists…Phillips has always promised more than he’s brought to any party… N > On 5 Nov 2017,

admittedly the field is limited, but there's something wrong with Jansson...he goes missing...I think he's got a dodgy attitude when times are tough...and right now we need something better than that...not sure who that leaves though. On 07 February 2018 at 07:21 {broken-address}
