Perhaps WH fans will get off BFS's back then. He isn't a long ball merchant as everyone takes him to be. Very unfair on him.

Not unfair - he IS. In today's paper he moans about being labelled one - which he denies - then says "Here's a question: if the club against whom you're playing have spent ?100million more than you have but can't cope with your team's tactics who is the guilty party?"


That's a bloody admission. Not just the long-ball it's the "There-are-away-games-against-big-teams-we-can't-win-so-we-may-as-well-not-bother-too-much-and-save-ourselves-for-the-home-games-to-guarantee-survival-but-f*ck-all-else" attitude. I hope he goes.

Charles Green has told Rangers' board he intends to leave his chief executive role "with immediate effect".


Green took up the position last summer after leading a consortium that purchased the assets of the liquidated Rangers Football Club plc.


He is now the subject of an independent investigation, commissioned by the club's board, following allegations of covert dealings with former Rangers owner Craig Whyte.


Green says it's "appropriatew" to leave.


A club spokesman told the London Stock Exchange: "Recent weeks have seen media interest in the circumstances surrounding the period prior to the acquisition of the club by the consortium led by Mr Green.


"Whilst Mr Green strenuously denies any wrongdoing, he has recognised that this negative publicity is a distraction and is detracting from the achievements and reputation of the club.

Have a look at the 2nd set of stats for passes. There isn't much difference between WH and Man U for example apart from the number of short passes.

Stats schmats they don't prove anything - after all a couple of players can rack up the pass count by meaningless exchanges in harmless areas of the pitch. But stats and 'tables' are what BFS relies on too - "Look at the figures - we're not as long ball as some teams...etc etc\" -


I am not trying to present a reasoned unbiased argument like a Lawro et al - I just don't like the way things are developing. We're not Bolton or Stoke and I would rather be relegated again and rebuild from scratch than use muscle as a substitute for skill. Mad innit?

To celebrate staying up....this, any guesses what this table is (not hard)



1. Man Utd (21)

2. Arsenal (21)

3. Chelsea (21)

4. Tottenham (21)

5. Liverpool (21)

6. Everton (21)

7. Aston Villa (21)

8. Newcastle (19)

9. Blackburn (18)

10. West Ham (17)

11. Man City (16)

12. Middlesbrough (14)

13. Southhampton (14)

14. Bolton (13)

    • This week's edition of The Briefing Room I found really useful and impressively informative on the training aspect.  David Aaronovitch has come a long way since his University Challenge day. 😉  It's available to hear online or download as mp3. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m002n7wv In a few days time resident doctors -who used to be known as junior doctors - were meant to be going on strike. This would be the 14th strike by the doctors’ union since March 2023. The ostensible reason was pay but now the dispute may be over without more increases to salary levels. The Government has instead made an offer to do something about the other big issue for early career doctors - working conditions and specialist training places. David Aaronovitch and guests discuss what's going on and ask what the problem is with the way we in Britain train our doctors? Guests: Hugh Pym, BBC Health Editor Sir Andrew Goddard, Consultant Gastroenterologist Professor Martin McKee, Professor of European Public Health, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine Mark Dayan, Policy Analyst, Nuffield Trust. Presenter: David Aaronovitch Producers: Caroline Bayley, Kirsteen Knight, Cordelia Hemming Production Co-ordinator: Maria Ogundele Sound Engineers: Michael Regaard, Gareth Jones Editor: Richard Vadon  
    • That was one that the BBC seem to have lost track of.  But they do still have quite a few. These are some in their 60s archive. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0028zp6
