      Would you say we we're naive when Arsenal and Michael Thomas nicked the title from us in the last minute of the last game in 89?
      There's been other years when we have lost crucial games in the final run in and paid the price...
      Football is a crazy game, thats why we love it so much...

      Yes we were, nowadays fans would been screaming at Barnes to take it into the corner, instead he tried to beat a man, lost it, Arsenal went on the attack and the rest is history, although I agree with the last bit.

      Keep saying it and will continue to say it - it wasn't just simple naiviety. You do not win the league when you have a defence that leaks 50+ goals a season - that's where we lost it.

      Sorry mate. But he is not even a half decent player. If he was , teams would be coming in for him. He is the complete opposite to MOLBY. Who could run a game without running about  scatterbrained. Henderson is all energy nothing more. I do not consider that a priority for a captain and CM. You need something more. He lacks it in spades.

      Name his great games on a blunt handed man.


      We should not have lost to Chelsea irrespective of Henderson, that's where we lost the league. Simple naivety.



      Drives me nuts the grief this kid takes.

      None so blind as those who shall not see.

      Fine player and fine ambassador.

      Absolutely, although you'd have to ask Barnsey himself why he made that decision in his mind..

      Personally referring to games/players from yester year allows the older fan to spread his/her wise words today with regard to tactics and analysis... that is in no way disrespectful to younger fans , just the way it is..

      One day, many years from now when us "Glory Years" Kronies have long gone they'll be banging on about how sh*t Lovren was and how winning the Champions League with Stevie G as our manager beating Barcelona 3-0 in the final was better than Istanbul 05.. ha
