Re: Mancie's Thread - The Scousers search for the Holy Grail

Now I think I know how the scouse supporters feel every time they lose which of course is much too frequent for a team still searching for their Holy Grail of a Premiership Title – even a Champions League qualification. If they had won then La Creme would have been second in the league – of course the scousers will do anything to hamper La Creme's progress.

I do feel sorry for them, everything seems to be against them at the moment, the main man going, apparently not offered a new contract, the wonder kid not interested in money but refusing to sign a £100K contract, 3 of their best players suspended so they will miss the Rovers match – come on you Deadwoods.

La Creme still not good enough for the full 90 minutes but churning out the victories, certainly putting last season behind them.

A great win for the Deadwoods especially ahead of the FA Cup match this week – Jay will certainly be smiling at the thought of me supporting them. They may even get into the play off zone if they can keep playing like they did yesterday.

Only saw a few minutes of Stanley's game, looked as though it was pretty rough – on the touchline, but there were some pretty robust tackles. They really could do with stringing a few wins together as they are not far ahead of the danger places, hopefully they can pull it off on Monday.

Burnley very much in danger with Arsenal up next. Hopefully Villa can stop QPR from getting above them on Tuesday.

The NN need to win tomorrow and hopefully they will have another off day next Sunday.

The scousers, one in particular, are keeping their heads down – I am reminded of some old sayings to do with counting chickens and laughing loudest, someone certainly had plenty to say last season. Still time for them to stage a recovery but when the Dodger gives up on the top four places it does not instil too much confidence. I do feel he is rather handicapped when new signings are apparently decided by a committee – how is it possible to manage a team under those constraints.
