And through it all, He offers us protection, From a deep midfield position Passing short and long And down the A14 wherever he may take me Norwich hearts are breaking When he’s on the ball We’re overtaking I’m loving Morsy instead
Or failing that, does anyone know a Cambridge fan with purchase history who would be willing to buy an extremely well behaved Town fan a ticket in the home end?
Here’s a song to sing (at least in your head) as you go about work today. The third verse is about Wales and the whole thing has been approved by Noddy Holder himself.
I wrote it with a few colleagues in aid of FareShare, the charity that Marcus Rashford partnered with a few years back. Any views, likes and of course donations would be massively appreciated. Thanks!
Taricco played amateur football in Italy from the ages of 32-40, then played in league one and the championship from 40-42?! Not many games, but still. Are there any other examples of a player doing that? Seems insane.
Another good interview from Statman with him on YouTube, by the way.
Surprised nobody has mentioned this possibility, especially since we looked much better after going to a 442 on Saturday.
I think an extra attacking player might give us the thrust we miss when Morsy’s out. We’re too predictable without his forward runs at the moment. And we have enough options on the bench.
Edit: And we played 4231 when we beat them 6-0 at home. Not sure how much their team has changed so there’s a chance that might not be relevant any more but… The reasons are stacking up for me.
At one of this season’s meet-the-fans events or AGMs, I’m pretty sure Mark Ashton said words to the effect of: ‘If you’re a business owner and think you have something to offer the club then get in touch.” Did he provide an email address or other means of getting in contact?
I have two spare tickets for Saturday - only thing is one is an OAP’s ticket and one is a kid’s ticket.
Any takers? I live in London and am self-isolating until midnight tomorrow night so will only be able to give you them at the game rather than posting them. Cheers
Think he’s made a great decision on McKenna. And even if this one doesn’t work out, I think the profile of the appointment bodes really well for how we’re going to be run going forward.
But did anyone else laugh when they heard him say that McKenna matches his profile, and then described him as having ‘a very high level of intelligence’?
Brings to mind a David Brent quote: “Probably why we get on… similar.’
Interesting coincidence that we tried to use this formation on Wednesday, a few days after United did it. Apparently Rangnick has used it quite a lot during his career so presumably it came from him rather than any influence from McKenna.
Still, that’s the first and second time I’ve ever seen it in England, apart from on me and my uni housemate’s Fifa 11 save. It’s fair to say United did it much more effectively than we did.
This 4231 with emphasis on switching the play doesn’t seem to break teams down the way it has done for PC in the past.
He himself has commented on the number of great coaches in League 1, and I do wonder whether their complexity has just taken him by surprise at times.
I do think he seems like a good figurehead for the footballing side of things, and I can imagine the players liking him, but that doesn’t seem to be enough any more.
Thing is, if we replaced him, would we make a forward-looking appointment? A young, innovative coach? Or would it be a big name from the managerial circuit who is largely similar to Cook? I suspect the latter, although that’s purely based on the fact that I think Ashton’s last appointment at BC was Nigel Pearson.
As it is, I think we’ll win on Saturday and forget about this poor form for a bit. Then start asking questions again when we hit another tough run of games.
