    That’s some stats. Couldn’t slide a sheet of paper between them.

    NL: “Last night was so pleasing, we were breathtaking at times. It was fantastic to watch and I don’t think anyone can have complaints with that performance.


    NL: “Against St Johnstone, we played with zest, quality, we had a great attitude, and we scored good goals. I was delighted with Greg Taylor’s performance too, and he should be delighted with his performance as well.

    NL: “The players are intelligent and familiar enough with the formations we’ve used. The schedule doesn’t give us a lot of time to work on bigger areas at training, but it’s then about rest and recovery so that everyone is available and ready to come and play

    NL: "We have to be on our game against Hamilton on Sunday. They do a great job every year, it’s a difficult venue with a difficult pitch, but we have good momentum to keep going."

    not a thing, said again last night, unlikely anything will happen but never say never, at the moment in terms of incomings nothing is going on, but we are always looking.

    Will be like the time someone said to lenny at Ibrox last year "Brendan never shouted at us".

    Johnstone conned the manager last night or Tim Williamson did either way i am with lenny, you dont jepordise your team or yourself knowing you cant put weight on it, Eboue did it and ended up out for 15 months!

    Jeopardise the team at 3-0 up with like 4 mins left in the game?

    He obviously thought he could play on and it turns out the injury was worse than he and the physio thought it was.

    If Edouard goes off in that scenario and is told to * off down the tunnel I'm sure your tune would change.

    It would.

    Because he’d be * off further than the tunnel.

    You don’t tell one of your players that’s hobbling off injured to * off and get down the tunnel.

    Can understand his frustration, but he shouldn’t have said it.

    Not really a big deal though.

    Exactly players are probably told to * off regularly!

    pretty sure some even have grabbed a player or two!

    Love Lenny just like everyone else but Keano is right, if that was Eddy there would've been a much more different reaction both from the player and us fans.

    All I can think of is maybe it's been building up for a while but as already mentioned numerous times, not just in Lenny's tenure but Ronny's and Rodgers', we do appear to have too many injuries. I don't know where to find the stats to see if it's true.

    There was a study done of the top 5 monied leagues in 2018 and the EFL had many more than the other 4 in huge part because they didn't have a winter break, which is why they're enjoying one now. The report costs about £200 though so I don't know all the reasons why.

    Lenny’s anger entirely vindicated now it’s been pretty much proven not only did he leave us with 10 men by ultimately either talking pish or lieing about the extent of his injury, he’s also left us without our only viable attacking left wing option given we’ve sold 2 others, 1 is injured, another can’t get a sniff and the other is clearly better suited at left wing back (if anywhere).

    If you’re offended by him swearing, spend a day at any club the length and breadth of the club whilst their training and you’ll be shocked.
