      - Is Jol really that bad? (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 21:31:33
        
        He's certainly not a bad manager, just had a bad year (NCFC) - mr carra, May 12, 21:40:39
        
        Hoot only has 2 decent months to his name. (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, May 12, 21:55:48
        
        In his career? (NCFC) - mr carra, May 12, 22:11:44
        
        05/6, when they blew it on the last day, he was good. Afterwards, he blew it (NCFC) - thebigfeller, May 12, 21:36:08
        
        So you're saying he's not even prem standard? (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 21:39:31
        
        He's not BAD. He's just not that good either. And I think Fulham should replace him in the (NCFC) - thebigfeller, May 12, 21:44:25
        
        I respect your opinion, because at least you make some valid points (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 21:50:22
        
        Yes they could. Which is the whole point really. And what Big Mo says goes. (NCFC) - thebigfeller, May 12, 21:52:45
        
        Big if though... (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 21:58:52
        
        Oh, for sure. But on the basis that this was always going to be a season of cutting (NCFC) - thebigfeller, May 12, 22:02:38
        
        If the tactics were altered due to Ruddy then Hughton needs to bring in a far better back (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 22:13:53
        
        No, not tactics. It's all about presence. A confident, reliable keeper begats (NCFC) - thebigfeller, May 12, 22:17:43
        
        Well some are claiming we only defended deep because of Bunn's lack of dominance (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 22:23:25
        
        Mancini has failed big style this season. (NCFC) - phrankin, May 12, 21:54:33
        
        Absolutely. The owners bought that club in order to make it one of the biggest (NCFC) - thebigfeller, May 12, 21:57:14
        
        ^^^Should be in reply to the big feller^^^ (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 21:32:18
      - Exactly. Almost unheard of for a smaller British club to run themselves in such a way (NCFC) - thebigfeller, May 12, 21:19:54
        
        Except in those years we were going bust (NCFC) - mr carra, May 12, 21:23:25
        
        The problem in those years, I think, was our extraordinarily low gates (NCFC) - thebigfeller, May 12, 21:25:52
        
        But we were going bust before relegation (NCFC) - mr carra, May 12, 21:32:07
        
        *sorry, that should read "hardly the ONLY club". We WERE the first club to experience that (n/m) (NCFC) - thebigfeller, May 12, 21:26:37
  - If you include carroll's last transfer fee they would be around 6th! (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, May 12, 21:16:18
- You think stoke and Fulham had better squads than Swansea? (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, May 12, 21:14:51
  - spending lots of money on big name failures doesn't make a squad is any good (NCFC) - phrankin, May 12, 21:57:18

    - And a goal, as proved below (n/m) (NCFC) - duke of york, May 12, 19:52:27
big money up for grabs next week (NCFC) - SCC 28, May 12, 19:39:29
- Man City are no great shakes at the moment... Would be a great way to end the season! (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, May 12, 19:43:43
- Wow - that is something like a 4m swing - crazy! (n/m) (NCFC) - Kev, May 12, 19:43:41
  - 2 points seperating 11th and 17th (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, May 12, 19:49:44

- Cover for Ruddy needed - Reading keeper looked handy (n/m) (NCFC) - Mozzer, May 12, 19:34:21
  - If we're buying a new keeper it has to be someone who can command the box (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 19:36:23
    - I think Bunn exceeded expectations. (n/m) (NCFC) - derbyshire canary, May 12, 19:38:58
      - He's okay for a few games at a time (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 19:41:00
    - why would man city's reserve keeper (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, May 12, 19:37:32
      - Because he can realistically challange Ruddy (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 19:38:27
        
        no chance... he would only leave man city for first team games. (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, May 12, 19:39:01
        
        Probably, but I'm trying to be optimistic. (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 19:41:35
        
        If Ruddy is sold.... Then he could be a good signing. (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, May 12, 19:42:08
        
        Agreed (n/m) (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 19:42:34
- Full backs, strikers (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 19:30:23
- hoolahan position (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, May 12, 19:29:13
- But, mainly tactics. (n/m) (NCFC) - norway, May 12, 19:28:24
wigan win would be a real sweetener on tuesday (NCFC) - ede, May 12, 19:21:12
- I would like to see Arsenal fail to make the Champs as well (NCFC) - phrankin, May 12, 19:22:33
Happy Wolfswinkle Day everybody. (NCFC) - South stand corner, May 12, 19:15:48
- Fingers crossed (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 19:19:35
- Fantastic to see his tweets! (Hope he hasn't been watching too many games of ours!) (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, May 12, 19:17:48
Thought Ruddy's return made a big difference (NCFC) - mr carra, May 12, 19:14:33
- Probably would have been top half with him all season (NCFC) - duke of york, May 12, 19:22:05
  - defo (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, May 12, 19:40:16
  - Yes, I think his absence & the effect is all too easily forgotten (n/m) (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, May 12, 19:24:36
    - Pilkington as well (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, May 12, 19:27:53
      - Yes, him also, you're right (n/m) (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, May 12, 19:29:31
        
        Howson should get more goals. He definitely looks to be improving as a player. (NCFC) - phrankin, May 12, 19:30:48
- His absence for half the season was huge. (n/m) (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, May 12, 19:21:26
- That attacking football didn't work very well, did it Mr Carra? (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 19:20:16
  - We haven't got good enough players for it, or so I read. (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, May 12, 19:23:05
- Yes. Think the defence look far more confident with him behind. (n/m) (NCFC) - South stand corner, May 12, 19:17:35
- definitely inspires confidence in fans (n/m) (NCFC) - ede, May 12, 19:15:51
- Lambert's team did well ;) (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, May 12, 19:15:05

so pleased for holt today (NCFC) - ede, May 12, 19:04:19
- Hoots needed to learn that Holt needs Wes if Holt plays as a lone striker (n/m) (NCFC) - Larry Hagman, May 12, 19:09:33
- Holt played well, when lots of players pushed forward and attacked (NCFC) - phrankin, May 12, 19:07:25
  - agreed he has been isolated and misused (NCFC) - ede, May 12, 19:13:05
    - lost his head... all those dodgy sub appearances... lucky to avoid a red card. (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, May 12, 19:19:00
  - Correct (NCFC) - duke of york, May 12, 19:08:26
- Great post - agreed (n/m) (NCFC) - trianglepatch, May 12, 19:05:17

- He's earnt until christmas with this. (NCFC) - mr chimp, May 12, 19:08:17
- The big question is, did he learn something from today? (NCFC) - talbotsunbeamer, May 12, 18:53:05
  - I don't think he changed his tactics today. (NCFC) - ede, May 12, 18:57:41
    - He didn't (NCFC) - mr carra, May 12, 19:05:11
      - exactly. The same as beat Man Utd and Arsenal (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, May 12, 19:06:43
        
        Not true though is it.... Howson and Johnson have been firmly stuck on defensive duty (NCFC) - phrankin, May 12, 19:09:08
        
        They were allowed to attack more because Holt, Hoolahand and Pilks (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, May 12, 19:11:27
        
        We don't push people up when we attack... it is far worse away than at home. (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, May 12, 19:14:08
        
        Don't think that's been a deliberate tactic (NCFC) - mr carra, May 12, 19:11:10
        
        One game (NCFC) - mr carra, May 12, 19:16:12
        
        This is the manager who played 3 defensive midfielders at Stoke... (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, May 12, 19:14:37
      - We did press much higher up the pitch today though (NCFC) - duke of york, May 12, 19:06:18
        
        I thought we did the same first half last week (NCFC) - mr carra, May 12, 19:08:40
        
        To be fair, yes we did in the first half (NCFC) - duke of york, May 12, 19:10:24
        
        won one lost one.... beats two draws... (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, May 12, 19:11:30
  - signs good players, and has kept us up. There is no question he should be manager. (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, May 12, 18:56:47

  - Depends how bad his injury is i suppose (NCFC) - Huge Small, May 12, 18:54:16
  - Get rid of Surman (NCFC) - Larry Hagman, May 12, 18:53:09
  - Agree, Surman is worth keeping, under-rated. (n/m) (NCFC) - derbyshire canary, May 12, 18:52:13
  - Maybe, depends if we're going to sign (NCFC) - duke of york, May 12, 18:51:09
    - I don't see Surman as a winger though (NCFC) - Sugbad The Bad, May 12, 18:53:00
- Agreed with that - but we shouldn't go crazy... (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, May 12, 18:49:44
- None of them were properly used this season/will ever get used by Hughton (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 18:47:54

  - or perhaps the players had a word with him? (n/m) (NCFC) - Larry Hagman, May 12, 18:40:26
    - Where's this coming from? (n/m) (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 18:40:56
