Ooh I love the unqualified opinions of people who think they know better than the experts. Just stick to FIFA and leave picking the team to those who know what they're doing. It's my opinion and I am allowed to share it. You have done it many times on here. Indeed, and I've just done it again. But at least I don't claim to know more than the manager.

Everyone's entitled to put forward opinions - otherwise, what's the point of this board?
And, whether or not you like someone questioning Jay's judgement, it's still a perfectly valid opinion.
But things turn sour when we start having a dig at each other - and "Ooh I love the unqualified opinions of people who think they know better than the experts. Just stick to FIFA and leave picking the team to those who know what they're doing." is a dig, not an opinion.

so much good work being done in other parts of the field other than finishing strange because we have plenty of talented players up front Pigs seems to find goal scoring really hard going at present and DSY finds it almost impossible and yet they are both quality strikers, surely it's just a matter of time at present Hines must be favourite to end up top scorer, maybe pushed by Loza ? not totally convinced yet about Tom Wraight, but confident about Johan-ter-Horst who will come good soon. looking at the numbers and the names there should be plenty of goals, but when ? As I've said before, I think we've been sussed - and we don't have a plan B. Jay set us up as an attacking side - solid defence, midfield equally able to soak up the pressure or attack, and a strike force always ready to run at the opposition, wing or centre. Once we'd settled, our early games were ones of possession, passing and movement, with the front 2 or3 scaring the bejabers out of the opposite defence. But once we'd been watched a few times, teams cottoned on to us and started shutting our attack down - leaving us the frustration of continued pressure forward, with little or no result. Then all the other side has to do is break whenever possible and rely on a bit of luck from a defensive mistake or a set piece. And, having no way of getting round their game plan, we are reduced to the same thing - hoping for a lucky break. Hence, low-scoring games, which are won or lost or drawn by just the odd 'fortunate' goal. Almost a lottery, in fact. Jay has got to either find some way of overcoming these tactics (playing three or four up front, dealing with breaks and set pieces better?), or he needs the infamous 'plan B'. As always, I'm glad it's his problem and not mine!

I just said I don't get what Jay sees in Wraight as in my OPINION he offers nothing to the team. Im sure you have had opinions on players in the past. I'm sure in the recent past that you have criticised the performances of Paxman.

Yes but do you question everybody else’s posts if it goes against your opinions and then heaven forbid anybody disagrees with your posts
Oh and this is my opinion

DaveU makes this forum more entertaining by arguing in other contributors' posts and having others turn against him ... I miss the old battle there was between him and NWS ... But these days the latter comes on here in the early hours of the morning when the former is tucked up in bed and huddled up in the bosom of his good lady !!. Awaiting his reply accusing me of being insulting , whem I am really having a bit of banter !!.😉😂😂

We like a good argument which is why most of us are on here in the first place. As for the battles with NWS, well it was all a bit pointless really because you just knew that he would keep posting and posting until you just gave up and let him have the last word, making him always right in his own mind however wrong he might be in the real world.

Aaahhh this old chestnut again. Firstly, if I have posted and posted until you 'gave up' then I have probably posted just one more time or in equal measure to you (think about it) which means you have posted and posted. Secondly, and the only reason I will post a lot more times than you, I often ask you a question which you consistently refuse to answer. I generally answer questions when asked. Thirdly, the real reason you give up is because I have often provided a fact-base to my argument while you have spouted off. You give up because you are factually incorrect. Please feel free to look back over old 'debates' and you will see what I mean. I doubt you will have to go back far to find one.
