Re: *** At Least We Aren't Wigan *** Get used to Foley at right back. Zubar ruled out for the season after back surgery.
Re: *** Goal Differential, How Does It Work? *** Got a handful of guys pulling international duty this weekend USA Hahnemann Cameroon Elokobi Wales Hennessey Vokes England Jarvis Scotland Berra Ireland Foley Doyle Keogh Serbia Milijas Austria Maierhofer
Re: *** Goal Differential, How Does It Work? *** Let's just hope they all come back healthy, especially Doyle, Jarvo, Hennessey, and Foley.
Re: *** Goal Differential, How Does It Work? *** So I'm guessing Jarvo got snubbed today? Didn't see him listed anywhere on the bench. :curses:
Re: *** Goal Differential, How Does It Work? *** Doyle just went down hard. He's calling for a change in the 15'. FUCK. Stretcher is out.
Re: *** Goal Differential, How Does It Work? *** Welp, good news is he was able to walk off, albeit gingerly. He basically told Shane Long to go sit the fuck down cause he wants back on. he's ok. I like Ireland and root for them in Europe, but I trust they can get it done without Doyle.
Re: *** Goal Differential, How Does It Work? *** Shane Long on in the 20'. Doyle is done for the day. Terrible luck for him. He took a hard tackle in the first few minutes. They were mentioning it just being a precaution. Hope that's the case. Foley is starting at CB. Looks like they're in a 3-5-2 today. He's shut shit down so far. Gorman got the start for Northern Ireland yesterday. Vokes ended up not getting the call up for Wales.
Re: *** Hello Darkness, My Old Friend *** Elokobi tore a hammy in training. Out for the season. The news just gets worse and worse.
Re: *** Hello Darkness, My Old Friend *** 6 to go w/ league positions in () v Fulham (11) @ Stoke (12) @ Birmingham (16) v West Brom (10) @ Sunderland (13) v Blackburn (15) That is THE easiest schedule on paper out of anyone else's remaining fixtures, but it's likely just a trap. Hold on to your butts, gents. It's squeaky bum time.
Re: *** Hello Darkness, My Old Friend *** Agreed. Every time I hear the start of that song I think of this though...
Re: *** Hello Darkness, My Old Friend *** Welcome aboard the misery train. In more positive news, Elokobi could be back for the BCD and Doyle, Hunt and Edwards rejoined training as well. When's the last time we had a markedly positive injury news?
Re: *** Hello Darkness, My Old Friend *** Not since the 1950s. That'd be great to have Elokobi back for half of our remaining games. How likely is it that KD makes it back at all if he's in training?
Re: *** Hello Darkness, My Old Friend *** Wolverhampton deserves to go down after that shit show. Up a man for 60 minutes and decide to spend 30 of it playing kick it back and forth between the keepers.
Re: *** Hello Darkness, My Old Friend *** It just shows how desperately, desperately we miss Doyle. Our attack just doesn't function without him. You're right, we deserve to go down, but a win next week and two draws to finish the season and we might survive.
Re: *** Hello Darkness, My Old Friend *** Early word is no Jarvis in the lineup. On the bench with Ebanks-Blake.
Re: *** Hello Darkness, My Old Friend *** Fletcher off a Hunt corner in the 15'. we keep up the high pressure.
Re: *** Hello Darkness, My Old Friend *** :ohholyfuck: nice header back across and West Brom's defense sleeping.
Re: *** Hello Darkness, My Old Friend *** I guess Mick phoned Nolan Richardson this week to talk about tactics. Jesus Wolves are pressing from box to box.
Re: *** Hello Darkness, My Old Friend *** Jesus the audio on my feed is way off. Feels like I'm watching 2 games.
Re: *** Hello Darkness, My Old Friend *** So many fucking facepalms in these last minutes. Jarvis passes back to Hennessey and almost gives away a goal. Stearman trips himself on a breakaway.
Re: *** Hello Darkness, My Old Friend *** Hey dickheads that is our stolen celebration that was stolen from someone else. Get your own stolen celebration.
