Knighthood for Unai and Mr Woodhall.

Another great read.

Dave has too much integrity to accept a knighthood.

Good piece Dave, but the comment underneath about still not getting the 'passing around at the back' I find mystifying. Do they think we'd be even better if we just launched the ball forward at the first opportunity or something?

I worry about people sometimes.

There were people around me shouting precisely that against Bournemouth. Honestly.

Great write-up but I find it difficult not to read the thread title to the tune of a Leeds Utd anthem.

Yes especially as it would be Sir David and not Sir Dave.

To be fair, Wimbledon used to do quite well doing just that. They even won the FA cup ;-)

They had a Dave Beasant. We have a Bertie Bassett. He will deliver us the FA Cup in our 150th anniversary season, next year. Believe.
