You don't say. So what's with the creepy identity theft, 'brownie'? Given the shite you talk, it can't be as an homage becaue you besmirch his good name with every dishonest post. You have stolen not only his name but his picture,too. Why don't we all change our names and avatars and pretend to be former players? Let's see if by tonight we can get the entire '98 play-off final team signed up... Do you try to bounce cheques , too? Try 111.

What do you think of just 2 goals conceded in the last 270 minutes though ?
I think it's a lot better than the 11 we let in the previous 6 league games. We defended very well at Fleetwood and against Doncaster, but not as well last night. Oxford could have scored 5 last night (as could we have). Wigan have conceded 8 from 14. Shrewsbury have conceded 9 from 14. Charlton have conceded 16 from 13. I'll be delighted if Big Sam offers us some assistance. That sounds like considerable improvement then - well done the coaching team.

Oxford could have scored 5 last night (as could we have). Wigan have conceded 8 from 14. Shrewsbury have conceded 9 from 14. Charlton have conceded 16 from 13. I'll be delighted if Big Sam offers us some assistance. Let us put to one side the actual goals conceded and look at the chances conceded instead, for it is a tad random when a goal actually happens, perhaps one in every nine chances? Looking at this link it is possible to discern that Wigan (and Doncaster) only concede eight chances per game whereas the majority of the division give away between nine and 14 chances per game. We have some decent players in defence, many of whom have held their own in the Championship. And perhaps Sarr coming in for Pearce has actually improved us - but too early to say. The point is that any angle which helps our side between now and January is to be commended. For sure some still wish to discuss whether they want to go to the Valley and the context of RD's ownership and my response is the same: P18 W11 D4 L3! It's very easy for some to get sidetracked or wish that something had been done differently in the recent/distant past. But that cannot be changed. It is also easy to challenge those who were not on board with KR last season or perhaps over the summer. What matters today is that those who genuinely want the club to do well turn up and support the lads... and perhaps we might have a rational discussion about our prospects this season.

What is 111, 'brownie' ? Allardyce's new defensive formation? Or the number of minutes before we next concede a goal? You are your other self could try this: www.schizophrenia-world.org.uk/I'm sure they can help both of you.

What a fantastic coach KR is, not afraid to seek others input for a change of voice or ideas. Many managers would never do this due to insecurities within themselves... Delighted with the positives coming from our club... Excellent post. On the money.

"...it's been apparent for some time that a coach to organise the defence is required, as none of the existing coaches are addressing the shortcomings."

I'm not sure if you went to any of the games, so I'm not sure what you did or didn't see. I thought we defended well up at Fleetwood, certainly an improvement on some of the previous games. We were much more solid as a team against Doncaster, but Donny lost one of their main threats Coppinger early on. Although his replacement did well, it was easier for us to defend against Marquis who was the main threat. Against Oxford we were more gung ho again, with plenty of chances falling at both ends, much like at Oldham. Oxford could have scored 5 Tuesday night (as we could have), so if Karl can get some assistance from Sam Allardyce, I for one think it's great.

Yes, the defence is a disorganised shambles and is leaking goals like nobody's business - two of them in the last 270 mins of football. Shocking! And even more shocking that none of our coaches are addressing such profligate defending... If you need help with any issues you may have, I'd like to try and assist. There is plenty of help available these days and it's better to try and address them rather than ignore them. www.nhs.uk/conditions/cognitive-behavioural-therapy/Pages/Introduction.aspxI am rather long in the tooth but isn't this the trolling thing you like to bang on about? Why do you resort to these personal, snide, abusive posts when your opinion is questioned? Then when you get a likewise response, you scream blue bloody murder, point fingers , call people atrocious names and declare yourself a victim. You claim you want to stick to discussing the football - but you don't. Do you set out to engineer the spats on here or can you just not help yourself?

It might just be me, but I think the level of abuse stevebrown gets on here is utterly bizarre. I find his views more balanced than most, even if I don’t always agree with them.

It's only 2 people and I wouldn't entirely rule out, that it is actually only one person. They are simply hoping that I will stop posting, but free speech really must be maintained and bullying should not prevail or be tolerated. Bullies are usually covering up for their own inadequacies or fears, so I really should feel sympathy for them. Anyway, it's like water off a duck's back to me, if they have nothing better to do with their time. Actually, I take it as a complement that they want to spend all day reading my thoughts and responding to them.

No - your comment is utterly bizarre. Did you actually bother to read the post from him that I quoted? What part of this totally unprovoked insult do you find balanced?

Major to be honest I don't like the witch hunt's on here from you and IA.
While Stevebrown does post the odd thought provoking thread on here I don't think that it anywhere near what you are claiming it to be therefore the abuse that goes back h in his direction is thoroughly unnecessary.
He is entitled to free speech, you in my opinion go looking for him rather than he comes looking for you and if you want the truth I am beginning to grow a little bit uncomfortable with the singling out culture on here so it needs to stop here and now please..

Unbelievable. Last thing I am doing is 'Looking' for him. I have always just reacted to the snide. You previously told him that you knew who he was on the 'other place' and what he was up to on here. But hey, it's your board.

No it's not my board, it's OUR board and I try to keep it as fair as I can.
Yes I have called him out once or twice but that was because I thought for a while that he was somebody that he clearly isn't but I didn't sit in wait for his posts like some do, I just think it's so unnecessary.
Can't we all just agree to disagree while respecting one another's opinions?

Er, reams, this is the warning you yourself were forced to give the troll only a couple of weeks ago when he was provoking spats with everyone in his usual sanctimonious way: "The bad news is that you are still on here posting every negative you can come up with. I don't ban people on here without reason but I'll tell you this I have never wanted anybody to slip up more than I have you."
Well, as our military friend in Canada has tonight pointed out, he's slipped up again. Big time.
Your tolerance is admirable and I commend you for it!

I made a perfectly reasonable post on this thread and you attacked me as soon as you read it. As Reams said it's you that goes for me on nearly every occasion. I'd like you to refrain please, because I'm confident no one else is interested.

It is the fact that when he starts to dish out personal attacks he will get some back. And that's the only time it occurs. He instigates but then he's the victim. I don't get that bit. Any way, I'm sure we'll muddle through. If there are no more snide, sarcastic personal attacks, I'm sure all this unpleasantness will be laid to rest.
