  1. I've not seen any different angles so maybe it was really obvious but I genuinely thought that the actual penalty itself was going to be checked to see if Hart got a touch. If not then it should have been a foul for it not touching anyone else before the takers second touch. I don't think I've ever seen it happen and only something I've learned from video games.
  2. Nelms should go visit him with a framed reply and a few cameras present for one of these feel good stories that you see every so often when a child applies for a managers job based on their experience playing FM.
  3. O'Dea was initially a good signing for us so I don't really grudge him that his pace dropped off and he declined but he come across as a total walloper. His last pre-season was embarrassing the way he was going round squaring up and losing his head at youth players at part-time teams. Remember that pre-season when him and Lewis Spence were charging round the pitch squaring up to part-time youth players. Do get the sense that he'll be the sort to get a crack at managing at this level and it won't be last we hear of him.
  4. Who is your goalkeeper coach? Looked really recognisable last week but can't think of a name, been annoying me!
  5. Do we have VAR in Nations League? I thought it wasn't used in group stage until they showed that view.
  6. 4, he was relegated the year we signed him. Must be some kind of record.
  7. Sharp for how good he is has had a huge struggle since day 1 with how rooted to his line he's been and his distribution, shot stopping has been brilliant but a lot of situations caused by him not having confidence to come for almost anything. He needs a lot more football. Dieng was very good for us and dominant in the air, he was far ahead from where we were at the time. He didn't really get the credit he was due because we were such a shitfest and the atmosphere was to scrutinise absolutely every detail as we were so desperate. Some of the critique he got was a bit silly and I'd feel quite comfortable rating him as one of the better 'keepers I've seen and comfortably levels better than someone like Parish who was well liked IMO.
  8. It also de-escalates the stake of the first vote so people swithering would be much more likely to go yes given there's pretty much nothing at stake at that point.
  9. Or go the other way and give them the freedom to be as vindictive as possible to 'up the ante' before the 'real' vote. Confirmatory referendums only really work if everyone acts in good faith.
  10. I think you'll be disappointed there. Some may be punted for a few months but the same characters usually emerge.
  11. Winning it gives him some perceived security of not having to fight one for a while and it being a bit messy bringing the vote back, I think that could work against him today and a bit of a 'f**k it, this is our chance' attitude comes into play. Tories are generally absolutely ruthless and love a leadership ballot. May only survived so long because it was a really bizarre situation where it was immensely difficult for any alternative candidate to emerge who could come up with something realistic to be passed that was near palatable to their base without ending their career. There's little Boris can offer them right now that they can't get out of a bit of horse-trading in the leadership ballot. They can probably use Party Gate to hide a fair no of other scandals attached to the cabinet.
  12. He was never officially announced by Dundee for what it's worth.
  13. Am I imagining things or did McKinnon not start talking about how great it was that Benedictus was a natural left footer when he signed? Seems a nice enough guy but if I understood that correctly and it wasn't just him misspeaking, that should really horrify a board.
  14. Sweeney is a good defender at this level despite the horrific goals against column. Could see someone coming in for him this summer.
  15. In all fairness, I think it's pretty harsh to take anything from when you get one of these good academy players as their first loan move. It's always a bit of a shock to the system for them and then usually the test is if they go out again how they cope. Can see it a bit with Daley-Campbell right now. He's very clearly talented beyond the squad but has also looked very raw and very late. He was dropped last week (played on Sat in midfield with our covid issues) and as good as he looks, I don't think there are many teams in the league where he'd turn up and get much of a look in right now.
