I'm hoping for him or Martin Allen to get it, both should increase the chances of Cheltenham getting a play-off or automatic promotion place., y'know.

The ball was there to be won and he won it, although I thought Dixon was wild with the challenge. Its a good job Folly was expecting it, if he'd put his foot behind the ball to control it Dixon would have snapped his leg in two.

You don't half talk a load of shit. Two occasions in the first half Aluko delayed playing a through ball for Maguire that would have put him one on one with the keeper. When you add to that Maguire should have had a penalty in the second half. He could have had a hat-trick on a different day. As an aside Dixon is a fuckin spooner. What a Dickhead!

Clarkson's ego wouldn't allow him to accept that he had been turned down for anything. Fairly sure I read something with James May where he was saying he thought that because they hadn't been arsed to do a proper show reel for the Americans and had just cobbled bits together from the show with constant references to British culture, was probably the reason they hadn't been offered the gig. Either way they've had the last laugh, I didn't even make it 10 minutes into the first episode.

If he's still in Plymouth he'll have been affected by the weather. Good lot fell here and the further South-west you go the more they have had apparently.

Drive bys on the stig cut outs was amusing. I thought it was a little bit of an "eff uu" to the yanks in general for not hiring them as the presenters for American Top Gear, which is fucking awful btw.

I'm guessing this is a "special" yellow bus and won't be stopping to pick up any passengers? Can "special" buses use bus lanes, otherwise they're going to be stuck in town traffic, like everyone else.

He's been playing reasonably regularly for PNE this season has he not?

I thought that might have been what swung it for her (although I think Sugar had her picked as the winner from the week when she project managed the boys team).

I seem to remember one of the better AFC performances against Atletico, also.

A couple of full backs will allow all the players in the defence to know exactly where they are playing, who they are playing with and partnerships to be formed. Hopefully this should allow confidence at the back to return which will, in turn, infect the rest of the team. At the minute they must be panicking every time they lose possession that we're about to concede.

^^^What he said^^^ Deek Dung is never a top quality SPL player. I mind these boards when him and his conjoined (since separated) twin fucked off to Fife; the vitriol would have you believe he was a product of Van Basten's marginally deformed left bollock. Regardless. If everyone is honest he did more than hold his own against Bayern. Him, Mackie, Foster, Ifil, Duff (RIP) are not the worst players we have ever had. We, as Aberdonian's (or at least wannabe Aberdonian's) are bred to believe we are superior to any other cunt in the land of Ecosse. Hence we put on our own to be World beaters and berate them when they are not. If they pull on the red of Aberdeen they are Aberdeen, AFAIAC am concerned

He'd probably just up and leaf, if we did.

Wasn't Langfield dropped for Soutar because of a falling out with Calderwood at his stagger in Magaluf? and wasn't the falling out over a blocked move to Rangers? Neither of which can be attributed to poor form.

Aye funny how its made its way onto the main page of the BBC rumours section too. Zander's agent has obviously been working hard as I doubt his performances have even got him on the "radar" of Swindon Supermarine.

Maybe worried their fans will come up with some more Paedophilia related chants about this management team.

Do you not think it's likely that we may see a change of attitude from some players and thus a return to form. Especially Langfield if Leighton is coming back and I would have thought Diamond is likely to improve, from current form, as under Brown I can only see us becoming difficult to break down.

Thirded. The only extra thing you have to do to register on a website where you are buying something is enter a password FFS.

21 ponies?

I don't believe he committed rape and sexual assaulted two women, for one second, as everyone knows anyone with the name Julian is blatantly a Bertie Woofter especially if they have shoulder length grey hair. What are the odds on him "committing suicide" while being held in a Swedish prison?

Maybe I'm giving Brown too much credit for what Taylor had created before him (+/- whatever Parkinson did) at Hull. I also couldn't give a fuck what he's like as a person if he's a cunt I'm fine with that, in fact I probably would prefer it if our manager was someone opposition fans hated. Granted he has made mistakes but hopefully he has learnt from them. On the positive side he's a big personality and reasonably high profile two things I think we could do with, he has pulled a club away from the relegation places before and got them performing way above their natural level. I'd also think he may command some kind of respect from some of our more vocal but mentally challenged players who will have seen him on match of the day and so assume he's some kind of footballing mastermind.

Definitely. Phil Brown would be taking a huge gamble with his career taking the Aberdeen job. Let's be honest it is only a matter of time before he walks into another Championship job where there will be more talented players than at Pittodrie, more money to spend than at Pittodrie, a more ambitious board than at Pittodrie and more positive press to be gained than at Pittodrie. So he either knows all about the club and out situation and has the personal belief that he can make a real difference. or He has no clue whatsoever and as soon as he finds out what sort of mess we are in as a club will distance himself very quickly.

Thing with Collins is we have a fair few Timothy's in our squad who would be of an age to have looked up to him as a player. Could work to our advantage, although equally we could have a Beckham & Hoddle situation. Pat Fenlon is a new name to the list that has to be worth more than a slight consideration. 5 LoI titles as manager in the last 7 years & 3 cups. The first LoI manager to take his team to the third qualifying round for the UEFA cup only knocked out by Deportivo.

Wouldn't be beyond the realms of possibility that it's Hartley who is the un-named player, but officially sanctioned mouthpiece, in this instance. To counter the equally un-named cohort and obviously less senior member of the squad who found out about the departure "on the internet".

As BB (I think) hinted at a couple of days ago Miller seems very friendly with Hartley and Hartley seems a good captain and as such link to the players. Given the list of candidates being touted we could do a lot worse especially when you also consider Cooper and Simpson will know the younger players (who we are going to be relying on) better than anyone.
