As discussed by Phil and Jim on this week’s Video Verdict (below), the St James’ Park bronze of Sir Bobby is not the finest! Ronaldo statuesque.
Our own Sir Bobby statue to us being far superior. With perhaps the Beattie and Sir Alf figures better still.
There have been many other bad renditions seen on the road this season - including Shearer yesterday. Jury out on the shiny shiny metal ones at the Etihad. Some ‘mid’ renditions at the Emirates including Tony Adams. The trinity statue at Old Trafford perhaps the best scene?
Thanks to the contributions below from forum posters on Homer’s thread. Generated some good discussion on TWTV.
Do give this week’s Video Verdict a view (and a like/comment if you fancy it). Some good insights from Kallum and Phil, including McKenna’s presser mood.

WARNING: may contain grown men crying. Key themes are lack of physicality and errors across attacking mids, Burgess selection, Forest strengths.

A longer show this week, as frankly the result leads to a bit of a post mortem with the team at a crucial point in the season.

Thanks as always - the 3 words really helped Phil and Jim to summarise the game on this week’s Video Verdict - link below.
Bumper show, lots of insights from Kallum and Phil on game but also transfer window dealings and survival league prospects.
Running order below, which is also in YouTube comments with hyperlinks.
And no, the TWTV team didn’t really think ‘We Are Zombies’ was a 3-word performance description!

Good point Bugs, worth referencing tomorrow - they remain in the betting for a points reduction based relegation. But for the poll let’s consider on-pitch performance and quality of these near rivals.
What a glorious night and performance under the lights at Portman Road, joyous.
There is a bumper Video Verdict up on YouTube (below) - the end of a glorious 2024 and the halfway point of the season.
If you’ve not watched the show before, or found some of the early efforts not up to standard - do give it a(nother) go. Includes some good discussion of survival chances and the January transfer window with Phil, as well as some good footage of the Blue Action pre-match procession. And of course the usual 3 word summaries from the forum.

Difficult game and a collective no-show from the Town players.
Thanks for your three words this week, which drove some good discussion with Phil in this week’s Video Verdict (third segment from 19mins). Especially the Muric centric 3 word descriptions.
Alan Lee has some good insights also. Give it a watch:
