    Europa conference is hardly the big boys. As I said, don’t cry when Emery makes it clear where his priority is - and it won’t be the Europa, I can tell you that now.
  2. DakotaVilla
    The spurs game is probably the most important game for us in the last 40 years. If we make the champions league at least we have the chance of building a squad to stay there. In that context the games v Ajax are basically meaningless.
  3. DakotaVilla
    Do you really think we can play the same 11 players every single game for the rest of the season and only have Diaby and digne currently as the only reliable rotation options and win both the conference and finish top 4. Some people need to have a serious reality check.
  4. DakotaVilla
    Absolutely terrible draw. Those saying what a brilliant draw it is will be the first to complain when we don’t beat spurs.
  5. DakotaVilla
    Apart from Ajax they are all crap and most of them are multiple levels worse than ours. Half of them are from the 70’s, look like rugby balls or were blatantly designed by someone high.
  6. DakotaVilla
    Does it, really? All the rest of them apart from Ajax are crap as well

    I do detect some jealousy dripping through some of these comments. My view is that we’re very lucky to have such a choice of really quite excellent content made by fans for fans. There really is something for everyone and for every mood. I do think Dan Bardell deserves a special mention though. He has supported so many of the other Pods through their journey and is generally just such a nice bloke. Also, if you read between the lines, he knows a lot about what’s going on at the club. Exhibit A - He very subtly trailed Purslow’s departure months before it was confirmed.

    We need two wins and a draw from the next three games. That will leave us with needing five wins from the remaining 10 games which should be doable without having to win the harder games. That will then also allow us to go slightly harder at the conference as our only chance of silverware if we get more secure about finishing fourth.
  9. DakotaVilla
    It’s a must win, simple as that. Same team as Fulham and hopefully we get the first goal. If they try to low block us to death again hopefully we will have enough creativity and patience on the field.

    If I was the owners I’d be trying to force the councils hand with a play to completely rebuild the stadium and regenerate the whole area but only if they CPO the crap out of the local area. Opportunity to bring the council in as partners to give them a much needed windfall. Either that or you buy council land somewhere in the city for cheap knowing they are desperate for the money and build the new stadium there.

    He’s not suitable at all for DM but why would we want to play him there anyway. He’s a potential match winner playing further up midfield with his ability to find the right pass into the final third.
  12. DakotaVilla
    You would think he would have opportunities in the Europa to impress and make a meaningful contribution but he has Diaby and Rogers ahead of him in the queue for minutes so is fast running out of time to earn a transfer.

    We will rotate as much as we can for the first leg to save everything for spurs. Then have to play a strong team in the second leg to get the win. But then we play West Ham away so something will have to give unless konsa and Carlos are back by then.
  14. DakotaVilla
    Those stats were achieved with konsa and Kamara in the team and doesn’t take into account he harder fixture list we have for the rest of the season nor the extra Europa games. For us it’s all about whether we can get the 7 wins we need and not lose to Spurs. However our PPG is very likely to fall in the next 13 games which gives spurs or Utd a chance if they start to put a run together.
  15. DakotaVilla
    It wouldn’t take anything drastic at all. One month long injury or 3 game suspension to Martinez, Pau, mcginn, Luiz or Watkins and we’d be in real trouble. As for Man Utd, momentum is everything and they have it with them at the moment. Luton (A), Fulham (H) Man city (A) Everton (H) sheff utd (H) . They could easily win 4 out of those 5 and if they did would probably be within 4 points of us with 8/9 games to go.
  16. DakotaVilla
    Man Utd have an easier run in on paper than us. We could carry on at 1.5/1.75 points per game and they could still easily catch us. All it takes now is one more injury or red card to a key player and we are stuffed. Realistically, It’s basically a 3 team mini league for two (hopefully) champions league spots for the remaining third of the season and we have a slight head start that is countered by our relatively appalling injuries and the congestion and difficulty of our fixture list.
  17. DakotaVilla
    Ultimately it doesn’t really matter where we get the wins from but shows how important the forest, Luton and spurs games are.
  18. DakotaVilla
    We need 7 more wins from the remaining 13 games to more or less guarantee champions league football. There’s no longer much room for error when you consider the difficulty of the fixtures ahead, the thin squad and the extra Europa games. Target Wins Forrest (H), Luton (A), Spurs (H), wolves (H), brentford (H), Bournemouth (H), Chelsea (H) Harder fixtures West Ham (A), Man City (A), Brighton (A), Arsenal (A), Palace (A), Liverpool (H)

    I do. The only question is when heck gets sacked (will be this summer latest) who on this thread will be deemed his “cocksucker” of choice?
  20. DakotaVilla
    Earlier than I thought but my earlier comment in the thread did say that he would limp on until the summer of this season. I had obviously heard the noise about heck at this point.
  21. DakotaVilla
    Well at least when everything comes out and Heck and Hatton are fired at least we’ll know who all the bootlickers are.
  22. DakotaVilla
    People are fine with hard messages. That’s standard when competent execs come in because they know it’s all about managing the change. People are not fine with incompetent aggressive arseholes that lie and that do not convey any positive characteristic trait of leadership.
  23. DakotaVilla
    Ok for all the doubters let me ask you this question in another way… Considering we’ve had so many crap owners and so many crap execs in the last 50 years have you ever, ever seen this amount of “noise” about the behavior and integrity (not competence) of any one of them?
  24. DakotaVilla
    I’m not emotive. I have information that you don’t. I understand your non-informed stance.
  25. DakotaVilla
    Let me repeat. Are you aware of any inside information that all of these allegations against heck are incorrect? If not, I suggest you read between the lines when people are trying to shine a light on what’s been going on and let things unfold.
