    I've done it a few times, sitting with mates who support other clubs. If you're fairly quiet about it nobody cares, jump up and celebrate and it's just stupid.

    I have no issue if people are respectful.

    I would absolutely condone it.

    Seeing that ***** who was leaning over and goading our fans in the lower tier after their first goal get a pint thrown right in his stupid face - knocking his glasses off in the process and causing him to scurry off to report it to a steward - was by far the best part of the day up until that point.

    There is nothing to dislike about Mr Gracia.

    Personally, I think that him bringing on Deulefeu when he did was more "Oh ****, it looks like I ****ed it up, I'd better do something quick" moment, rather than a "masterstroke" as described by some.

    Nonetheless, he obviously has a deep seated love for football and what a very, very nice man he is.

    In this moment, there is no one in football that I'd like to achieve real success, whatever that means to him.

    Haha that was funny. The modern day fan goading and goading then runs off to report if someone doesn’t just sit there and take it. He spent the next 20 minutes telling the steward that about 100 of the singing section should be removed.
    Coins were then exchanged which cannot be condoned but what can the FA expect when the create such a situation

    Thanks for posting. I can’t stop replaying from 74 minutes onwards . To be there was fantastic and a life long memory . To be able to watch our goals again and look at the reactions of the fans is joyful

    Sorry, there is never a place for a half and half scarf. You support one team or the other. If somehow you’ve got hold of a ticket as a neutral and you want a souvenir of the day, buy a programme.

    I think the Wolves players will be able to motivate themselves enough without having to worry about what Troy said...

    Sure the sense of revenge will do - although won't mean a lot unless they finish 7th and cut short their holidays for a European date.

    BTW When did anyone care about football in the Olympics!

    Is there a witness, possibly, to corroborate this?

    My sister and I sat in the Brighton end for our match there this season, as a friend of hers got us complimentary tickets. We were respectful of where we were and, as a result, it was a miserable experience - not being able to react to anything in the way you want to - and made a dire match even worse. I have a couple of good mates who are Man City fans and one also does consultancy work for the club. If, with the smaller allocation, I don't make the Watford ticket cut for the final, I know this friend could get me a ticket in the City end with no problems. I also know I'd rather watch it at home.

    Gerry D obviously plays better when angry.

    Drop him before the Wolves league game then bring him back in to score a hat trick.

    And leave him a hulk mask behind the goal for when the third goes in.

    As fantastic, unbelievable and beautiful yesterday was, I really hope that is one of the last games we see Mariappa start. He stuck out like a sore thumb yesterday as the major weak link in our defence. Just nowhere near good enough at all and his constant, hideously inaccurate and aimless diagonal long balls to Deeney don't help his cause either.

    Play Kabasele the rest of the season. He can still have a future at this level, Mariappa does not.

  25. As fantastic, totally believable and predictable as Sunday was, I really hope your keyboard stops working.

    I'd really love it for you to be able to join in with people's enjoyment of what we have now at the club, without having to hide yourself after matches because you talked such unpleasant and misguided 5hite before a game.

    Sit back and enjoy it FFS.

    I thought Cathcart wasn't that great - seemed to get caught out a lot which is unusual.

    Particularly at the start of the 2nd half.

    Was pleased when they took Jota off and brought on 2 players who cannot cross to save their lives it seems .

    Not that is matters now ofcouse !

    I think they are good for kids who have gone to their major final, no adult should wear a half and half. Ever.

    Javi Gracia clearly doesn’t agree with you. On balance I’ll trust his judgement over yours.

  31. Agree but Kabasele isn't the answer, nor Prodl nor Britos. We've had a glaring weakness at CB for 3 seasons now.

    Haha, having seen your posts in Shoutbox, I know that you go straight for the hyperbole when it comes to criticising players. A misplaced pass, means that a player is having an "awful" game, instead of having just played a "poor pass". You are so quick to be so negative, but I think it's a trait on social media where people think that their posts only get noticed if they are extreme.

    Marriappa didnt stand out as being particularly bad at all. He did OK, I think we have to remember that our defenders were up against forwards that have had more success than most when up against the world class defenders in the top six sides. They had relatively few chances against us over the 120 minutes.

    Marriappa often kicked long, but I would think that was tactical, with two up front and with our midfield that Wolves struggled to play through, it made sense, particularly as their defenders were not so commanding themselves. Their coach mentioned those long balls as being difficult to deal with.

    I think it could be acknowledged that all of our players could be replaced by someone better, and maybe Marriappa more than some others. But he is a good defender in a top half side, he stays fit, he gives everything he has got, demonstrates a good attitude, and who copes pretty well most of the time. Extreme criticism is really unfair.

    I also don't like the idea of the Shoutbox log being posted after the event @Meister - the longstanding idea was what happened in there stayed in there.
