I think we,re on dangerous ground if that is the case wheres it going to end.....player power dictating which managers can stay and which have to go ?.......they get well paid to play football not take part in popularity contests if they wont give their best they shouldnt be paid thats life the world over im afraid. As for fans leaving grounds early.....ive been in a football ground virtually every week of the season since a child be it my own club or others ive only ever noticed 1 or 2 clubs who have had large amounts of fans leave early and they are renowned for it........maybe the rest

Interesting that mate, as I agree with some not all, Do you genuinely believe Chelsea are in a relegation battle? I don't think they are, not at all, I see them having a rough few months that is it...I see a team struggling but I don't ever see them going down, nowhere like it. The table don't lie, that's a given, but seriously, do you think if mourinho had stayed on, they would be in the championship? I think he would have binned Costa and hazard off and got in a big striker, someone like the arnauvic at Stoke or Dzeko or even a huge name like benzema. Fabregas would have been

How you doing sir good i hope.....watch him work the heavy bag for 5 minutes and he,ll look every bit a boxing man .....i know what you mean he almost seems too intelligent and clean cut but it seems to be the new era of trainers a lot of them are getting their education in the classroom before their experience in the ring its just the way it is now but for somebody who didnt turn pro himself i personally think he reads a fight well and has a great understanding of the psychology of a fighter........he is the polar opposite to Jimmy Tibbs which is what i,ll find fascinating about this contest

I wonder if any other manager in the world other than Mourinho would of hung onto his job as long as he did after the calamity of a season they have had......if they was lagging behind in 7th or 8th you would say maybe sacking him is a bit harsh......but a relegation battle .....seems perfectly fair to me anyone else would of been out the door ages ago. " Football is not a hard game,you keep hold of the ball and dont let the other team get it and you will win ".......it doesnt seem to work out like that for Arsenal

THL breeds oddballs they will never all be gone ....... Dont you go getting me in trouble i can feel another cyber assassination attempt coming on here !....... just because you get more than me doesnt mean your more important

I must of eaten more turkey over the years than Bernard Matthews has ever laid eyes on and i still dont get sick of it.......cold on boxing day with a nice drop of piccalilli and some mashed potato....simple but effective.

What we got here a new shift supervisor......there was me thinking all the oddballs had gone off here !

Im looking forward to the battle of the trainers old school versus new....both men are known for being great tacticians and both their fighters are intelligent enough to follow a plan so id make the trainers almost as important as the fighters in this fight.......very good competetive yet respectful contest all the way round it will make a refreshing change from all the usual nonsense.

Oh well i think i might just cry myself to sleep tonight if a random bloke on the internet doesnt believe that someone out of the same area and the same sport that ive known since childhood said something different in a gym to what he said to a boxing magazine....i,ll think twice about repeating these kind of things next time what with you cyber security guards ready to pounce !

Once you look beyond all the latest toys and general greed i think christmas is much better for poor kids than rich kids.......when we was kids we had f**k all but the excitement of having all these nice foods,seeing all these mental relations you didnt know you had,great stuff on tv....thats what made christmas......rich kids would get that stuff all year round how was christmas exciting for them.

Whats the old saying...." just because you are a character doesnt mean you have character " Just like last time i think most people will be glad to see the back of him.

Sounds an interesting theory but im not into all that yank football stuff.........explain what you mean will you please chief ?

Its what comes with the way young fighters today are so obssessively protected from defeat its impossible to judge just how good they are until they have been manipulated up the rankings and are actually fighting in a world title fight !....its just the way the game is now unfortunately. I think if Fury stays focused it will be the same outcome.....unless Klitchsko starts sleeping in a grow bag then i think he,ll lose
-
...........yes but he wasnt even there so what would he know !...........stone me all we need is Zippy and Bungle on the plot and we,ll have a full house !

I think the likes of Bale/Walcott/Ronaldo/Suarez up front......and defenders like Shaw/Walker/Bellerin are much faster in todays times than the fastest players of the day years ago and maybe that tells us where the game has gone in terms of athleticsm......have we sacrificed skill for speed ?......the likes of Messi/Ronaldo would probably suggest not but on the whole at your average mid table premier league club i think we probably have.......was Peter Beardsley in his day as quick as Gareth Bale in this day,i very much doubt it.
-
f**k me its really not that complicated.....Jimmy mentioned a few trainers he had spoke to that thought Fury would win and some who thought he would lose.....i dont know Gallaghers " opinion " myself as i didnt speak to him.......stop trying to go all Sherlock where its not needed whether you believe 3 + 3 is 6 or 7 makes no odds to me whatsoever.......are you not the chap who has read every book on boxing ever published ?........do you dissect everything this intently or do you only believe things read with your own 2 eyes
-
Should be a good honest fight between these 2......Bill has the discipline and work rate to box to a plan for 12 rounds,he takes a great shot but i still think Lee might just know a little bit too much for him. Good little local dust up between Mitchell Smith and George Jupp for an incontinental title as well......Smith,s a hard hitting kid id expect him to get the stoppage.......another good night of British boxing.

I make you right a great striker today is a different thing to a great striker from years gone by you look at strikers like Rush or Lineker they were instinctive 6 yard box strikers you just dont seem to see those any more.....you look at a team like Arsenal and the amount of chances they create and think a typical goal poacher like Ian Wright would score 30 per season in that team yet they seem to place as much importance on a striker holding the ball up with his back to goal like Giroud does as being quick and deadly in the box.......its a statistic we could probably never know the answer to
-
It gave me a decent living nothing more nothing less.....look lad,dont throw up controversial statements and then when someone asks you to back it up you stand their crying like a child saying " i dont have to explain "........a conversation is about talking then listening if its all too much for you then dont do it.......i have an interest in animals but i dont start ranting and raving telling people they think they are David Attenborough every time i engage someone in a conversation who might know a little more than i do its just conversation there really is nothing to feel threatened by !

All the best to you chief exciting times in your household.........heres hoping for a happy healthy xmas

Get a kid to show you thats what most of us do

Give him a few more months of success and we,ll soon find reason to rip him to pieces.....its what we do best !.......I seem to remember a young Wayne Rooney have a great start to a season once it didnt take us long to catch up with him. I,ll be interested to see how Vardy plays at national level but he,s certainly very talented.....also be interesting to see how he performs next season once he,s a marked man so to speak.

This has to be the biggest crisis in their entire 12 year history ....surely the test of any manager is when he has to rebuild a team.....having lost Cecz,Lampard,Drogba,Terry being on the way out etc this is his time to shine and they are not playing for him......my guess would be he lost the respect of his players after that carry on with the physio bird theres a lot more to managing men than tactics.
