  1. Mate they played right through us at Villa park. Be honest, you know this. You seen it. The absence of Grealish though was huge though admittedly. Anyway, this is miles away. The other half of Sheffield im looking toward for now.
  2. Just wondering TRO, do you think Tuanzebe displaces Hause ? Of course, if it ain't broke don't fix it i get that but seems criminal leaving a fully fit naturally right sided CB as good as Axel on the bench right now. Again, Kourtney has done little wrong. Good problem to have i guess.
  3. We had Grealish at Bramall Lane and they still beat the crap out of us ( yes i know Bruce was in charge ) I don't think they will have any mental hang ups about playing us after they threw it away. Logically, they know they dominated us for most of the game at out own place. They played through us so easily in both games. Could see that happening again
  4. I said it a month back about them that although, like Sheffield United, they seem to have more staying power this season, they're squad is lacking depth. They have to get the same 11 on the pitch week in week out to be on it. Can't sustain that especially playing catch up with games like they are.
  5. Can we all observe a minutes silence for those Fulham fans who thought they were Barcelona this time last year. I kid you not, europa league qualification was being bandied about .
  6. I think so too. He'll have them well up for it.
  7. Think we need to get out of this mindset of " people doing us favours ". Nobody wants to play us right now. I'd imagine we are joint top with Norwich in the form table. As good as we have been, all we have really done is made up ground for how crap we had been prior to it. We still have very little margin for error. Just need to concentrate on ourselves and our own momentum.

  9. **** hell Fulham that was a pretty tame effort over 38 games. Hindsight is great and they were better than us on the day but we wouldn't of been that shit had we gone up, right ?
  10. Boro in absolute freefall. They'd take Monk in a heart beat now i bet. Serves them right sacking a manager at Christmas when they were 5th.
  11. It's a joke fight really. This is an Arum promoted card on ESPN in the states. Last weekend his headline fight pitted a Romanian against a Bulgarian - in the US ! His cards are shit on ESPN. They must be throwing money at him.
  12. If ya never watched boxing before and tuned into SSN, jim white would have you convinced crolla could beat lomachenko. Man could sell sand to the arabs.
  13. Whelan was bolloxed at the end of the Ireland match Tuesday night. Was brilliant. Hope he can go again. Must of recovered well .

  15. I liked it better when they gave dates to various uk promoters. Ever since they signed an exclusivity deal 6 or 7 years ago with Hearn and matchroom to put on all their uk cards - bad idea. And matchroom have sky by the proverbials now. Sky are scared shitless of loosing the darts. ITV are big into it. BBC have started showing a PDC event over the last few years that's doing big numbers.
  16. He was excellent last night. Link up play was great. Smith probably not best pleased to see him play the full 90, be surprised if he starts Saturday.
  17. Seen a good interview with Adam Smith the head of boxing on sky. The interviewer put it too him that now that Hearn has 2 paymasters in sky and dazn to keep happy he seems to be going out of his way with all his US cards and 3 and 4 am UK time live boxing to keep dazn happy. Dazn are paying Hearn a truckload of cash right now but sky gave Hearn his platform. He would of being nothing without them. If dazn move into the UK market it's basically the end of sky and Hearns working relationship. Smith basically saying if Hearn doesn't prioritise Sky ( more UK cards , 7 - 11 pm sat night live boxing) they won't be happy.
  18. Hey Blues.....how's that playoff push working out ???
  19. Crawford is the real deal but again you could argue that his biggest win came against yuriorkis gamboa who like Garcia was fighting 2 weights higher than he should of been. Top ranks matchmaker trampler is well seasoned and he has matched him really well at welterweight. I'd be very surprised if he doesn't beat Khan.
  20. Canelo fought at the super middleweight limit of 168lbs last time against fielding. Probably came to the ring that night over 180lbs after rehydrating. He would beat up Spence bad. And Spence is an excellent fighter but weight classes are there for a reason. Spence ultimately wins most of his fights by outboxing and beating up the other guy. Too much stacked against him against Canelo.
  21. I'll put my hands up. Had Spence winning going in but i thought it would be much more competitive . I dont agree with you that Garcia is overrated. Wins over Easter, Broner, Salido, Lipinets whilst not stellar are not nothing either. With the benefit of hindsight, Garcia didn't get to show how good of a boxer he is because of the disparity in size and reach. Makes me think would Spence-Crawford be as evenly matched as it looks given the fact many wouldn't consider Crawford even a true proper welterweight. I'd like to see Spence fight Danny Garcia next. Decent fight that. Easy to make. Same promoter etc.
  22. Shocking around Xmas culminating in the gift winner he gave Leeds. Playing very well lately though.
  23. Be nice to see Carroll getting more minutes today. Smith has shown in the past especially at Brentford that he isn't shy about changing a winning team. We need to utilise the squad we have now over these next 8 or 9 whatever it is. Lansbury and Tuanzebe available after the break is massive too.
