I have been as vocal a critic of Fulton as any over the past couple of years. The improvement in his performances has coincided with Matos taking over, and it's not a coincidence that the job that he is being asked to do is far better suited to his style of play. I doubt his new contract will...

True he has said that this world cup will be his last But he has also said he doesn't want to retire before hitting 1000 senior goals

Oh joy we get the pleasure of being bummed by Ronaldo and Haaland this time around :LOL:

Caretakers don't count, only permanent managers. Otherwise Forest would already be up to seven :LOL:

By the sounds of it the loan deal has an obligation to sell clause And probably an obligation to buy from us unless there is something greatly unexpected that happens

Vipotnik said himself that he doesn't practice free kicks, it was just so close to the 18 yard box he said let he have a go and smashed it hard enough to break the sound barrier. There was no skill to enhance there just raw power :LOL:

I wonder what the record is for the number of managers in a season for a single club

There is likely no recall / early termination clause in the loan agreement for Bianchini meaning that Portsmouth couldn't have sent him back to us unless both sides agreed. We either didn't believe that we could find a new loan club or not one who would have covered as much of his wages as...

That was a one in a million hit, the outward swerve and in off the post Vipotnik said himself he had never taken a free kick before, he just backed the raw power that he had with no thought about direction except to aim for that gap at the edge of the wall

Me too But funnily enough their paywall is as half assed as their reporting You can scroll and still read the article with the pay wall banner still up

I had no feelings either way. He tried but fell into the trap of trying to protect results rather than making them happen. Good luck to him wherever he goes except when up against us

What has me feeling confident is that every team in the league will be afraid of Vipotnik at the moment, until recently our direct free kick record was abysmal but what Vipi showed yesterday will have teams thinking twice about rash tackles on the edge of the box. Not only that but he is being...

https://www.walesonline.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/swansea-city-transfer-decision-sees-33387768 Not often that there is an interesting article on there, but this one was fascinating. Sounds like deeper squad succession planning, letting Wales out to get competitive first team minutes...

A point at Derby is a good result. Three would be a statement Our next three games are against the teams in 7th (PNE) 8th (Brizzle) and 9th (Derby) If we pick up 5 or more points from that run we will have done well as well as made ground on at least one of those opponents

The biggest thing about Franco's goal was the belief in Tymon to put that delivery in. Franco knew that he was going to put it on a plate less than two yards from goal, he only needed to get there and get ahead of the defender. If you don't believe in the full back or winger to make that kind...

Other way around, Ben and Vorm went to Spurs and Gylfi went to Swansea. I remember Utrecht kicking up a huge fuss, they said they had a sell on fee but because it was a player swap deal there was no fee for them to be entitled to.

Agreed, if a free kick is 20 yards or less absolutely I agree that VP should be in with a shout at taking it. Beyond that it doesn't matter how hard he leathers it the keeper will have time to react, at that point it will call for something with a bit more subtlety like Walta (when he gets up...

This is the real acid test in my eyes If we go away to Derby who like us are in really strong form and come away with something then we will be serious contenders for a place in the playoff race. We have the top scorer in the division, probably the best keeper in the league and so long as we...

It seems hard to believe he won't hit 20 (not counting the cup games) He only needs 5 more with 15 games to play He has 5 in his last 5

Tymon's deliveries dipped below his usual standards around the time that Matos took over, but he is back to his best now. He didn't get the assist for the Stamenic goal against Watford (if Stamenic had let it cross the line then it would have been Vipotnik's goal with Tymon getting the assist...
