satanic lols! I think at the moment a lot of the fans would take some ugly wins. But after Wagner as a long term project I'd prefer to see more of the hard pressing, high tempo style he brought before he lost faith in his methods after a few prem maulings. Even if it meant there wasn't some instant turnaround in results from it. Hopefully having a budget beyond anything they've had before (bolstered by flogging some of our overpaid wasters and parachute payments) and a transfer window might lead towards a more positive approach.

(If you're disinclined to click on that link to a boring link to an ad-splattered hellsite, it's an article in which Plymouth's new manager recognises that the snot army are especially sad about their team's mediocre start to the season because ECFC have had a very good start to the season, goes on about it a bit and then says its irrelevant and how he doesn't want to talk about it.)
(I am not being entirely fair.)

"£35m... is that for one glove?" Lambert said."The way the modern market is you might get one glove for that.""I know the people at Wolves, but that will get Jack’s right-hand glove!"

it was a resolute but mostly awful performance for lovers of the game - we've played 10 times better and got absolutely nothing multiple times in the last 18 months. i'll take an ugly shithousing bastard of an away win at Stoke on a cold tuesday right now though!

hard to forget the answer to one of the questions after being escorted/separated from a bunch of them on a train by british transport police after we'd just won a first leg L2 playoff game against Lincoln City and they'd been relegated from the prem after 4-0 mauling at early KO at Stamford Bridge.

an absolute amazing reaction save by our rookie keeper followed by a total howler of a follow up miss of the season candidate, so I'll take a point against this shower of shite.

After a couple of terrible results, we clock up our biggest derby victory against the snot since 1925, apparently.

6 games unbeaten inc 3 wins, we have our first guaranteed 25 a goals a season striker since .. erm Pawel Abbott. Yet we still are absolutely awful to watch at times... but staying up is on again. Need to ditch Elphick fast, he's an old laggard well past his best and with too many dumb mistakes in him.

a classic of the genre including drink driving, a player fleeing the scene of the crime and then returning 45 minutes later, a club cynically taking the moral high ground to sack an old laggard on high wages. Also Giggsy turned up to give a character reference for Tom Lawrence in court.

Lol. I can see him making a case against Derby though. First demanding a 'my way or the highway' wage cut, and when it's not accepted going for the axe approach with "gross misconduct" is p nagl.
