Colin Wanker weaving his magic at Huddersfield.1

Can big Sam make it a hat trick of 2023 survival miracle workers ? .. at 68 he's not quite as ancient as the other two but has skated round the block a few thousand times ..
it's interesting how the older, knowledgeable, cooler heads seems to work better in a crisis than some of the managerial gimmicks favoured by some of the younger English managers ..
Warnock has played a blinder at the Terriers, Sam has a VERY tough gig at keeping the other Yorkies afloat .. be fascinating to see if he can get the players in some kind of competitive shape and (of course) stop leaking so many goals as well as scoring a few0 -
Mick McCarthy was not so good at Blackpool0

The turnaround at Palace is the most surprising one. Nobody expected Hodgson's Palace to suddenly start scoring more goals and look more of an attacking threat, but then many "modern" coaches seem more interested in possession for possession's sake, rather than attacking quickly.2

true .. but as the poet saith .. 2 outta 3 ain't bad .. AND Mick is a mere 64, i m o not quite ancient enough to be a proper oldieCH4RLTON said:Mick McCarthy was not so good at Blackpool0 -

I think I now count as an oldie. I assure you, I rarely get the job done.4

PS I saw Nigel W in my local Tesco (Callington) a few weeks ago and wanted to say hello but had a senior moment and could only think of the name "Colin". A sense that that wasn't right stopped me.1

So how old do you have to be to “qualify” as an oldie? I remember the kids in their younger years used to refer to us as the wrinklies. We were in our forties!Wheresmeticket? said:I think I now count as an oldie. I assure you, I rarely get the job done.0 -
used to be 35 .. nowadays for most of the average male population, I reckon around 71/73, though to some it comes a bit earlier, to others a shade later .. good benchmark is when your conversations are more about your health than sex, drugs, rock n roll and football ..Blackheathen said:

"Hello Nigel, erm, Colin, erm..."1 -
Well done Colin.
Not an admirer but credit where credits due. Hudds looked doomed when he took over.2 -
A localish away game for us next season.letthegoodtimesroll said:
