| Quote: barham red "I listened to that, his tactics in his words were if they can spend enough time in the oppos half then they'll eventually score. Inspiring stuff. They look the antithesis of us, we look as much of a team as I've seen since early Morgan years. Very together with each other and the fans. Even clarkey commented on it. He said about our lap of honour against St's and realised that it wasn't cos we'd beat the champs as he thought at the time, it's cos it's what they do all the time. Close to the fans and enjoying it. He said it must be the best club to be in at this time. Nice words Mr Clarke. FC on the other hand look like they don't want to be there, effort is there but it looks like a chore, maybe the difference between a team that's winning to one that's losing but I think it's more than that.'"
Rovers team spirit is the best since the 2007 squad who had to fight to stay up with essentially half a squad of National League players. That same spirit coupled with the talent is what creates the anticipation & excitement across fans & club alike.
As for the mess across the city. Long may it continue, couldn't happen to a nicer club. This is what happens when you collectively believe the "emperors new clothes" bull that Pearson uses to flog season passes. Expectation levels not aligned with the team's ability. The coach isn't the problem, he's doing a fine job. ![DANCE icon_biggrin.gifANCE:](images/smilies//eusa_dance.gif)

We have just created space within the slaphead cap for Tilse, who looks a bit follically challenged to me. We also have room for another ginger now that Carlile has gone, so Goose will be ecstatic.

There ain’t no music
East side of this city
That’s mellow like mine is,
That’s mellow like mine.

| Quote: Sandro II Terrorista "Different eyes, different views.
I thought Shaul looked their most dangerous player, particularly in broken field, the kid's got pace to burn.
On Houghton, he doesn't really seem to have become the player he should have/could have been. I still think he's a threat, but three or four years ago he looked like he could be top drawer but he seems to have stagnated, can't see it happening but I think he needs a change of club. Not to us though. He hasn't got any hair, therefore, rubbish.'"
And there, Sandra, you have summarised one of our main underlying problems. It's not just Houghton. ![Sad icon_sad.gif](images/smilies//icon_sad.gif)

Even if he had hair it wouldn't be ginger, which would also have to go against him.

30596_1286642206.jpg If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

I'm off the gingers, I belatedly realised they are evil and should be put to the ducking stool test.
We have a severe lack of good hair players though, can't think of one and McCarthy's beard annoys me to my marrow.
I haven't seen any good hair prospects in the nineteens.
We're potentially on our knees.

Ha ha, Priceless!
Why doesn't the water carrier sneak up to McCarthy with a hidden pair of scissors and give his beard a quick snip when he's taking a glug?
Mind you Charnleys hairstyle catalogue leaves a bit to be desired and Joe Philbins barnet at Warrington is tailor made to add a parrot to complete the look.
