  1. It depends what you want really. £11,000 would get you 10 days of my time. Are you Stephen Ireland? If I was it'd be more like £11k for 1 day. Sadly I see nowhere near that amount, that's just how much the company I work for bill our clients for my time. The point being web development can get very expensive depending on what you want, and as always, you generally get what you pay for. God no wonder I am skint because that is what I do and don't charge a fraction of that. Putting together a site for what Big_John wants would not take that long as its pretty simple to do.

  3. I don't care about stats but I do care about a lack of respect towards someone when they have a different opinion. We all see things with different eyes. Lambert does rate Bannan else he would not have made so many starts this season. He obviously thinks there's no room for Delph and Bannan in the same squad but Lambert doesn't get everything right does he. And I think Delph got injured or suspended then Bannan would come straight back into the team just like he did at Reading.
  4. Yes I really like Lowton. Really good footballing right back. I think the two lads from the Sheffield academy might contest the England Right back position for years to come. Obviously Walker has bags more pace.

    Joe Bennett

    I would prefer Baker where he is tbh. Clark is a liability next to Vlaar, so why not put him at left back? Agree with this, shame we didn't try it earlier in the season as its a high pressure change now...not that keeping Bennett in is any good. Because Clark has played at LB too and was awful, positionally weak and far slower than Bennett. Leave the back four as is shore up the midfield that will be more beneficial. Playing against Valencia and Rafael is very tough and only one goal last night came from that side and even that could have been averted had Guzan claimed. The lad didnt play well but he was no worse than pretty much all of them and the formation made things very hard for everyone too. Sunderland will be a different proposition. Exactly Guzan makes prob his first error of judgement this season and people blame Bennett. I do not like Baker at left back. He cant get up and down the pitch, limited ability on the ball and cant cross. Like when we had Cuellar at full back.
  6. If he doesn't figure in the last 4 games I think you will get your wish. That would be a shame in my opinion but we have to support the players in the team. I don't know if Bannan will make it elsewhere maybe its his size or there's a flaw in his character but he reminded me of one of fav ever villa players when he first got in the side Alex Cropley. similar size and a scot.
  7. To be honest £11,000 sounds totally extortinate
  8. Matt Kendrick Evening mail marked him only 5 for the Fulham game. Baker or Nzog were motm I think.
  9. Yes but all his good work was undone by the own goal and his woeful finish. Not his fault if we go down but those two points lost against Fulham could be the difference between us staying up or going down, Huge pressure on us now!
  10. Yes we can all pick out moments in games when players do something stupid and actually I do rate Delph although he cost us 2 points against Fulham. I just thought at times yesterday he was very negative with his passing and when he did go for the long ball it usually went astray. He works hard, he makes lots of tackles and gives lots of fouls away too. He needs a bit of Westwood's composure I think.

    Joe Bennett

    To be fair to Bennett he had a tough night last night coping with Valencia and Rafael. He was left exposed as well with little support. I'd stick with him. Anyway Baker has been good at centre back and he isn't a natural left back. Bennett offers more going forward and with our lack of width we need attacking fullbacks.
  12. I've seen every game this season and just because someone has a different opinion than you doesn't mean you need to be disrespectful
  13. Yes but most of Delph's passes went backwards. Anybody can do that
  14. What awful purchases has Lambert made? Benteke, Lowton and Westwood have all been successes. Vlaar, Bennett had difficult starts but have looked better lately. El Ahmadi played well last night but I know that's not enough, Holman maybe and Sylla haven't seen enough of him to judge yet.
  15. You don't have to have a mobile version if you don't want but I made that suggestion because Big_John said it didn't look too good on mobiles. He could use media queries but again it takes a bit of learning and if you don't use Dreamweaver then its not so easy.
  16. I think Bannan has more skill too
  17. Nah Bannan and Westwood, Delph and Westwood the outcome would have been no different. However in a three man midfield Bannan might have made more difference. A long time ago I know but its the game I always remember Bannan for and why I think he has something. The 2-2 draw against United, Bannan was brilliant in that game. I have never seen Delph do that. I know he has made improvements but he hasn't got the range of passing that Bannan has. He drives forward with the ball and then turns back and passes it back to the goalkeeper. A lot of Delphs passes are backwards.
  18. Yes if that solution is best for you than go for it. You can always build a separate mobile app later and just stick a bit of javascript into the head of the index page like <script type="text/javascript"> <!-- if (screen.width <= 350) { window.location = "http://m.domain.com"; } //--> </script> replacing the http:/m.domain.com with your mobile url
  19. He was better second half when we had the extra body in midfield. He's been our most consistent midfield player by a mile this season.
  20. Baker is a stronger lad but Clark is a better footballer. I'm not into criticising too harshly players that have come through the academy. 23 is still very young for a central defender.
  21. He has not improved us at all. Our league position and points tally shows just how dire Lambert has been. His gung ho approach with lack of organistion and basic defending is quite amatuerish to be honest. Tactically he is clueless and some if his decisions are horrific. Id rather a gung ho approach than previous managers safety first and play for a draw tactics You shouldn't forget that Greece won the Euros, Chelsea won the Champions league with defensive tactics. Regardless, tonight was the kind of game we should have been playing for a draw. I don't take pride that we were 3-0 down after half an hour at Man U, just as I didn't that we lost 8-0 at Chelsea just because we played with 'progressive principles' I think he was stupid to start with 4 attackers today but I would rather watch this team than last seasons team and its a young team so should get better.
  22. I like Lambert. Sure he has made mistakes, but to change manager will mean we go back to square one again.
  23. We didn't need to park the bus, just needed to start with an extra body in midfield.
  24. He needs to have more composure. He runs around like a headless chicken most of the time. A lot of wasteful passes tonight.
