On the plus side I thought Taylor was immense when he came on at halftime

Well said Mac - I like Taylor too! Well done to you for travelling from Macc to Exeter -  a real true supporter don’t you think Frank?

I agree about the opioids. My five day stay for a routine bypass op, turned into more than a six week stay, after my new arteries collapsed. I was effectively dead for more than four minute before being revived. The warm glow of Vicodin, and the occasional soft touch from a nurse were the only comfort.

 
Food is better since last in 12 years ago.

Do you mean Roman Villa? Think earthworks found near Old Stratford!

Kärl Heinz Henry...any news?

Bake beans?

You been suffering with bulls***itus again nevers??

Didn't realise the operated on the NHS for that these days!
😉😅

Hope it's nothing too serious

Charming comments

Incorrect once again Nevers, but hey that's pretty standard!

I meant present in person not by video.

Tramadol nights?

Get better soon

Not wise to take ‘em

Home ,yes  ..away not at the moment.  Will you?

Am out for a number of weeks; just come out of operation theatre. These Opium painkillers are top notch. Now see why the the druggies take ‘em. Fantastic high for 2/3 hours. Must try again! Perhaps I could persuade the nurse to give me a few for Glasto,Man04, certainly Clarkie

Is Hoskins available?

Good player

Another good win against Swindon. I truly believe that their great form this year has helped spur on the first team. Going to be tough against the Arsenal youngsters but hopefully another win.

Uncle Frank , will you actually go and watch yr protégés?

Will you have your flower in your hair for this one?

Yeah - so we can identify you. Your pal Cornell will be in goal! Look fwd to match report from you.
I reckon this is your second game of season.

If an assister gives the assisted an opportunity to score, it seems unfair that the assister gets penalised for the assisted's failure to score.

 

Repeating myself yet again, having nobody better is not a reason for having to think a player is good. I think Theresa May is awful, I'm also allowed to think there are no credible alternatives. Just because there is nobody better doesn't mean you have to like the current incumbant. Can you understand that?
Also, I already have a job and it isn't "Being a football scout" so no, I won't be suggesting any Janyuary signings 

And, for Clarity again, what makes Hoskins any good? He's been the source behind 3 goals this season. Is that really good enough?

Repetitive mantra here; for example I have never suggested or even thought that Hoskins was a good player or even good enough to make the first X1. Your problem is that KC thinks he is! Where myself and possibly others stand is that Hoskins is perhaps the most effective flank player we have at the moment however unpalatable that is. Thats not to say we all think he is there by merit or because we like him ( ) but more likely by default. It might help if you could reassure fellow contributors that you actually understand that simple concept.  You are not alone in thinking Hoskins is not good enough; far from it. Until we have more choice I am at loss how to criticise Hoskins given all the known facts.

It will be nauseating if all the happy clapper day trippers come out of the woodwork to go to Stamford Bridge.

You really have a problem!

Who told you that? 
Shed load of bombs landing around Hanslope, Cosgrove and Yardley Gobion... Luftwaffe tricked into thinking it was Coventry! 

Edit;
St James the Great church (Hanslope) 136ft spire re-built in 1804...bit before Göring's boys took to the skies! 

Speaking of Germany..has Kärl signed yet?

Double Agent Coolie , Double Agent. We set Gerry up to use Hanslope Spire in 1938. As far as I know no bombs fell in Hanslope 1940 - 1945! There is a Roman in the vicinity.
Good isn't

The logic is that 31 chances have amounted to 2 assists for other players goals and one goal for himself.
Could you please tell me why he is so good?

You are missing the point as I dont think Hoskins is that good. For some strange reason KC feels he is good enough to be picked. What you and Wolvo never do is suggest an alternative either from current squad or a January signing.  At least suggest somebody who you feel will do better. Hoskins position in the squad is probably based on there is nobody better. KC has actually tried other options : Walters, Bridges and Powell but still Hoskins gets the nod. So please explain to me why the almost pathological anti player stance when clearly there is nobody significantly better?

Because seemingly everytime he gets the ball within 8 seconds the opposition have it back. Just because there are no better options doesn't mean this is the right one.

So why does KC play him regularly - if he is so bad? You seem determined to rubbish him what ever the reason. At times there seems no logic in your criticism; applies to Wolvo also!

Hanslope church and its magnificent spire (close to the geographical area in question) served as a beacon for the Luftwaffe in WW2.

Haven't got a clue who the fcuk Karl Henry is or his relevance!
Heinkel III pilot or one of Boudicca's daughters?

Hanslope spire was deliberately set up to misguide the Germans away from B’ham factories. Bit like the road signs all pointing wrong way in case the buggers got here.

If an assister gives the assisted an opportunity to score, it seems unfair that the assister gets penalised for the assisted's failure to score.

  love it

I don't really agree on the definition here albeit tongue in cheek - the prem have a clear one and it's the following - "a deliberate pass that leads directly to a goal with no other player than the goal scorer touching the ball"

Having said that Hoskins contribution to true assists by that definition is not great from an opportunity to result ratio

If said ‘assiter’made a pass which should have resulted in a goal. Then it’s somewhat churlish to deny that player of an assist.

[some]

Is anyone else sick of the continuous sagging off of Hoskins? Please change the record.

Actually I have no problem agreeing with you - the endless repetitive comments on an average player where we have no obvious replacement! Still it gives some moaners a chance to have a say. To go out of your way to criticise a Cobblers player in such unfavourable terms is hardly the sign of genuine supporter. On those who offer seemingly malicious comments and call it an opinion should be challenged.
