The beer in The Bartons was nice.

A pub i keep meaning to go in and never get round to it but it's only a matter of time. £3.30 for a pint in the Aston Hotel yesterday was a bit of a piss take.

I like the fact that Chris Smith now has a scapegoat. It can make us all feel a little bit better about ourselves

Don't be so fucking childish. It's not scapegoating to state a matter of fact. Albrighton was tracking him and stopped, watch the game and you'll see it for yourself. He played well last week but was pretty poor yesterday.

Just a little joke Chris

Lets be honest here. Each and every one of the back four is shocking. Dunne has a mistake in him every other game. The other three well come on. Salvage something with Cuellar Herd Clark get Baker back from Millwall. Shake them up for gods sake sick of Collins doing his Ayatollah thing slapping his head all game!! Petrov needs showing he isnt going to get picked for 90minutes. Nzogbia should have come on for Marcus during the 2nd half. Its just not one game its every home game at the moment. the direction of the club is heading onw way big time! Im worried about relegation the way I see it only Wigan and Bolton are weaker than us.

John Gidman was adept to using the very same strategy - great marauding full back but would fail to get back to defend, feign an injury and then ruffle his flowing locks as he ambled back - usually as the opposition had taken advantage of him being out of position -  by scoring - ah the good old days !
VCTM this is a dreadful accusation on John the Great.  I have never seen a right back at VP who comes anywhere close to John.  In his time he was the best in the land and inadequate functional fullbacks like Paul Madeley  kept himout of the England team.

That's the 2nd home game running that Warnock has done something so embarrassingly bad that he's pretended to be injured immediately after. Yesterday - the near Own goal. Swansea - when Dyer had just torn him a new one for the 3rd time during the 1st half. I really can't stand the bloke. Maybe Houlier had him sussed.

He always has an 'injury' or 'knock' when he drops a bollock. There is/was a decent player there but his confidence is shot.

Warnock's reaction to an error is becoming as predictable as Ash's "oh no, I may never walk again" knee-rubbing after he got fouled.

Best right back I've seen in claret and blue.

Better than Kyle Walker, those were the days my friend !

Pretty sure that's bolllocks. Players can't bet on their own team's results

Warnock seems to have lost the plot, he's not a crap player but he's awful at the moment.

If that header had not been stopped by Given, I think he would have had to be immediately taken off for his own safety.

The Aston Hotel is a shit hole. It's a shame because it's a fantastic building.
