I would certainly be up for that,but preferably in our main bar with "DEYA" at half price financed by our full board including the mystery shareholders who i doubt would welcome an inquisition.

Re: what differnce will it make ?

We will hopefully have just one coach/manager shouting advice from the technical area instead of 3 which has been usual this season and must have been confusing for the players.

The Cowleys would be excellent but feel unrealistic so likely Artell or Clarke. Tisdale always dresses as...

Re: Pre match warm up routine . Grrrrrrrrrr

The warm up is essential for "elite" athletes,but the shooting drills are more likely getting a feel for the pitch and atmosphere at least on the bigger grounds.
I knew a footballer who never liked scoring in the warm up,rather save the goals for match proper.

In respect of Bonds - It’s just his levels of consistency. Clearly, the more consistently you hit the 7 out of 10 performances (or better) in a match, the higher you will play. The assist that Bonds played in to Keena in the game v WBA was world class. If you slow the action right down he completel...

None of this quite rings true.
