It's a little bit older than I think you realise Griss
Well gents - Certainly agree with your assessment of the atmosphere - nothing more than hopefully enjoyable banter. We do disagree on aspects of the game, but that’s no problem. Just a quick nip at KES (!) - I do think “strong” is a highly exaggerated cliche in the game. You’ll hear commentators and pundits saying “showed his strength” in a situation, when it was obvious that it was either balance or nipping through a gap, and with no contact whatsoever, never mind “strength” ! And I don’t think 80% of the NL players are “strong”. Whenever we’ve been burned it’s by slippery nipsters ! We’ve lost one ( Loza), but if YouTube is right, Gyasi is an ideal replacement nipster - if he can leap the gap up to NL. Finally, again HNY to you both, but I must continue to advise managers , etc, some/many I believe got the job by impressing Chairmen by cliches like “character” and “strength” in the interview ! That’s why managers are always getting sacked ! (IMVHO!!)
