The dog's bruises have nearly gone He has actually started to greet me at the gate when I come home from the match.
You might think you are "joking" golfer but i find that sort of comment absolutely abhorrent, intimating you were harming a dog because of the teams performance and your own inability to deal with your emotions, disgusting. Buy a cat and leave the dog alone FFS.

‘No desire, no effort’?
The facts just don’t bear this out though. According to the analyst chaps Hooper always is in the top 3 for metres covered and sprints during games. Maybe some are blinded by preconceived ideas??
Well if a lot who were there yesterday were wrong, and the fans of all his other clubs were wrong fair enough. However, I would rather trust the evidence of my own eyes rather than statistics which can be interpreted in many ways. For me at least his performances are not good enough or consistent enough and his goal tally is poor - he has after all got number 9 on his back. I totally get that we all see things differently, and players come in and out of form all the time making our assessments look silly at times, and I really want him to use the ability he has, but we would have seen it more regularly by now if he was going to deliver.

The moggies dead. I accidently kicked it into the road last month and it got run over by a lorry.

I think it's easy to forget that Hooper has spent his career as a striker not a winger. From what I've seen, he puts effort in, but he's a striker asked to do defensive duties and this explains some of his downfalls. I remember vernam coming on for hooper at wide against mk dons and us looking distinctively less balanced with the full back receiving less cover. At this stage, he's doing a good enough job out there.

Think we have the makings of a half decent side there now. We were the better team in the first half, without threatening their keeper too often. The Vernon shot that hit the post was our only real chance created, and they put one just past the post. Second half, they were the better side as i thought they would be, but i think their better was a bit better then our better, if you see what i mean.
They looked a tad more fluid and threatening when on top than we did in the first half, which considering their league position, was not surprising. A combination of McKeown and the wood work kept them at bay, but they pushed us back and made us stretched, which forced us to hit the ball long a lot more than the first half. Our defence looks a lot more balanced now, with proper full backs. Hendrie impresses me more with time and i thought he was our best player.
We look much better than we did earlier in the season, and didn't look second best to a side at the top end of the league. Think we will be fine this season, but need one or two more signings in Jan to progress more as a team.
2nd time for this - after apology 1st time? Please reference the right player - as he is better for us. Thanks. UTM

To his credit, Hooper covers every blade of grass. Hang on a minute so does the groundsman. Similar goalscoring records!
