Based on the criticism of the predictions of the panellists during last weeks pods, can I say that you got my teams position and chances exactly right (depressingly!)

Used to work for a UK-Irish haulage firm and an Irish Sea ferry company
I have to be ashamed to admit to never having seen one, despite working in Dublin a fair bit!

Yeah, I know absolutely nothing about the Irish Navy but the only things I've read suggest that keeping them at sea is a real issue with manpower shortages
Doesn't suggest that they are fully trained in anti-drone warfare (mind you, who is?)

Irish Navy vessels don't have anything like that
Though you'd assume the main gun on these would be able to take out drones

Yeah, i don't think Parker got the credit he deserved for essentially rebuilding a team in a week and then getting 100 points
But the prem needs him to adapt, and that is the challenge for him

Oh christ, not like all those old duffers on UTC who go about the 60s like it can come back if we just get owned by the local butcher or something
But yeah, its defo an age thing
Just a lot more fun when you were younger, and the key is remembering that and not turning one of the above people!

Yeah, he has the intensity and desire that you need
I'm not sure everyone in our team has
Mind you, that is where the likes of Dubravka and Walker are so valuable
But end of the day, our squad cost x, and we've had to change it drastically every season
That has an effect and we are seeing it

I think that is an age thing though
The reality is that our football team doesn't have a place in the PL, isn't wanted and I'm not sure any of the fanbase really want this every week
Plus like you say, that FIFA thing is just clearly rampant corruption completely out of control and its...not good

Oh today is a write off
The only consolation of Wednesday was seeing Ekdal back and him and Steve looking a lot better
Course, nailed on for that to be changed today

I was sick of it by the end under Dyche, sick of making mistakes every game under Kompany, and just bored by Parkerball
It probably an age thing and an PL thing, but us bouncing around the bottom every other season is fast losing its appeal

I don't think the crowd is the issue
It was a morgue when we were there earlier in the season, cos Villa weren't playing well and we make it tricky for them
I think the fundamental issue with Parkers style is that you never feel like the team are going for it 100%, cos that it all about control
