Who criticised the fans?

Thank f*** I chose not to go today

Some of the worst zonal defending from a corner I've ever seen

Pathetic

Last 2 games. Lol.

I disagree. He'd be a pretty shit manager if he subbed everyone having a bad game all the time. Some players need playing back into form. Especially those in forward positions

I can only think Unai is trying to play Bailey back to confident.

We need to put this game to bed soon.

Dougie is so good.

Matty Cash is shit

2 years and just gets his first goal for the club. Take a bow Sanson

To slow moving, too slow on the ball and too slow reacting. We are just too f****** slow about everything.

NO2NATO - yes to WW3. Gallowayand his cronies, using a church as a platform. Not a Russian Orthodox one though which I'm sure they'd all feel happier chanting disarm Ukraine and hand her to Putin.

Yeah, it is wonderful. Until a few Russians turn up and slaughter your family for putting them in danger. Then it becomes stupid irresponsible behaviour.

Yes, well aware of this today. Now they can't get through Bakhmut they've pushed North into the outskirts of Soledar rather easier. Ukraine really need to hold this northern region of Bakhmut and the salt mines which act as the perfect network in which to conduct operations and protect troops. The other thing about Soledar is it's being defended by one Ukrainian battalion compared to Bakhmut which has several battalions defending it. Soledar could be far worse for the Russians if they push too quickly into the area as they can get caught by a rear guard action. That makes any retreat very difficult should the situation become untenable. If Ukrainians are purposely letting them move forward into this area then the shit show could get far worse for Russia. I am sceptical about this though.

I agree with the rest of your post but I'm not sure about this. What is a win? If Ukraine exits tomorrow or several months, years down the line, will Ukrainians see it as a win. I think they will. I think they will celebrate/commemorate this period as a win against political dictatorship, the influence of Russian rule and a fresh start for their Nation. Without doubt the deaths of thousands will never be recoverable or forgotten but Cities just like after WW2 can be rebuilt and a nation can become stronger economically.

And I'm not suggest you are. Not for a second. I'm just responding to my personal posts and the information I'm informing on. It's not just yourself that has mentioned this either in relation to the info posted, so I'm not just directing this at you. However, if posters feel the info is skewed towards positive info for Ukraine and produces an imbalanced view then those posters an do their own research and provide a more balanced view as they see it. At the end of the day we're all just trying to inform on the truths of what is going on. If you look back at the start of the thread I'm sure most of the posts were reporting on Russian advances, the destruction and death of Ukrainians and Ukraine. Very pro Russian from a Russian advance point of view. It couldn't have been any different because that was the situation. Ukraine was on the brink and Russian forces were nearly in Kyiv. Due to Russian logistical incompetence the situation over the following months right up until now has very much been about Ukrainian advances in recovering land. It's not like Russia have really advanced in several months so there will be limited info on Russian gains because there aren't many. In short the situation in Luhansk has stalled with minimal movement backwards and forwards from both sides, Russians have flooded the P66 highway border from Kreminna up to Svatove but are not advancing currently. Bhakmut is destroyed but Russia are struggling too advance, maybe metres today, and give them back tomorrow. They've also been trying to encircle the City but to no avail. Kherson as everybody knows is very much mainly under Ukrainian control left of the Dnipro with Russians on the right shelling the City. The Zaphorizhzhia region hasn't really changed in 5 months although there is a softening of Russian logistics and defensive positions which may indicate a potential push to Melitopol for Ukraine. This is how I'm seeing things from both standpoints and whats happening on the ground, everything else is just noise.

I don't know anybody hoping Russia prevails in this conflict. Absolutely nobody. Certainly not in this thread and certainly not amongst family or friends. So then you either support the Ukrainian resistance or remain neutral, I'm most definitely not neutral. The other point to make is whether you feel the info people post is skewed or not it still tells you the situation on the ground. No one is going to lie about Russian advances or loses as the news is easy enough to find. As far as Ukrainian loses are concerned, well there is very little info out there. I cant speak for everybody but I think all those contributing are trying to posts facts or opinions. If it seems one sided more often than not it is because the other side are full of shit so nothing is worth posting, unless for laughs at the idiocy. Personally I admit, I will not glorify Russia or Russian propaganda. If that makes what I post imbalanced to some, I'm cool with that.

I'm really glad at this quote because it has been abundantly clear since JG left we are very lopsided in attack out wide, with the left severely weakened.

Lol. Must be expecting cuddles the plum.

1.5m new taking full mobilisation numbers to well over 2m. It still wont be enough Or one AK to every 5 troops. They've done it before.

Yeah, just noticed in the match thread. Thanks though, much appreciated.

Question... Does anyone know the cut off date for claiming a free ticket for ST Holders v Stevenage? Has it passed? Thanks in advance as I can't find any info on the website.

Missed your input these last few months. Good to hear from you

My football hero alongside Zico. So good to watch. I think Morley was severely underrated.
