So it's on. The new Mick McCarthy Stand should be open in time for the season after next. Shows some intent. I do hope we stay up. -- Boo! Thick Mick Out!

Perhaps I was being a little unkind to the great man Steve. On reflection I see the Mick stand in two parts. At one end a huge, solid but fragile looking building full of holes, a small very busy building at the other. In between bugger all but joined by a graceful arc soaring through the sky. Of c

"since they were promoted in 2009, Wanderers have been a revelation, using combative midfielders, pacy wingers and shrewd buys to forge a team whose work ethic, spirit and skill have made them a credit to a much-maligned and misunderstood manager". woohoo. On Fri, Feb 11, 2011 at 9:16 AM, Marcus

"he is tactically canny and adept at making a team more than the sum of its parts" in my opinion, this sums up why we aren't already relegated, because i don't think our squad is really much better than a good Championship one. Certainly not good enough to beat Man City, Chelsea, Liverpool or Man

Careful Mark. It seems that QLD air has magical properties and you're in danger of turning into a Happy Clapper. The results so far this year, in my mind, seem to suggest that it is the players themselves who are lifting for the big games almost as if they want to prove that they are Premier L

Let me ask all the nay-sayers. What would it take for you to change your mind about Mick? What position in the league would we need to finish in? What sorts of players should he be buying? What should change about the style of football? For example: "If we played like we did against Manure ever

Fair enough. I think we might be getting closer to meeting some of those. I think O'Hara, Foley, Hamill, Miljas and Hunt would be a good midfield five. On 11 February 2011 11:04, Marcus Chantry wrote: > Great questions Steve but not sure I can answer them in anything short > enough for people t

In reality Hunt hasn't cut the mustard yet , and it looks like Hamill will get his spot. The question is, can he fit both O'Hara and Milijas in the same team? (and who misses out for Henry) From: nswolves@googlegroups.com [mailto:nswolves@googlegroups.com]

I'll lose my faith in Mick when: - Bottom half of the Championship. - Buys old has-beens with no sell on value rather than young, fit upcoming players - Not bothered about the football for now. I'd rather we hoof the ball if it means we can establish in the Prem rather than go down
