Just a couple of points for you JBG:

1) Although I do often have a go at people who do not go the game, out of towners as many call them, I have never said that this site was full of know-nothings, on the contrary I have often proclaimed the depth of knowledge of the members of this forum. Apology to my usual address.

2) Do not EVER put my name in the same sentence as Stu. LMFAO.

RAFA's CUNNING PLAN.
In the press on the day of the game it was openly displayed that RAFA was going to give an opportunity to 'fringe' players in the Graz game. It was obvious that he was looking at his mid-field options. He needs one player out of Hamman, Kewell, Potter, Warnock, Diao, and Biscan to complete his mid-field line up with Stevie G, when Alonso and Garcia are let lose on Bolton, come Sunday.
What we were allowed to observe is just how poor his options are with the existing crew, we went straight back to the sterile mid-field style of last season, no vision, craft etc. coming from players who are not confident on the ball.
When he throws the 'Spaniards in the Works' it will look completely different and low and behold the problem is solved. - Bolton shown the sword, Spaniards accepted and RAFA praised to the high heavens.
Tuseday night was merely a reminder of how it used to be !!!

Negative criticism from "fans" is never helpful, those who like to find scapegoats for a poor performance or pin it all the manager or the goalkeeper are a) Unhelpful b) Nearly always wrong and c) Not blessed with much football knowledge.
Constructive criticism on the other hand, based on FACTS as opposed to ill informed and ignorant opinion is valuable and can only help.
Fact is I was disappointed last night, we did not play overly well but there were reasons for that. Injuries, players being rested or cup tied meant we had an inexperienced team out there who had never played as an 11 in competitive football ever before, it is no surprise we lost to a decent side like Graz.
As an after thought, Santa also has it spot on about Arsenal, they are the biggest threat this year and always been big rivals but I cannot help but admire them...their attitude is second to none and watching them tear defences apart is great to watch (as long as it ain't ours!!!!) Before I get slagged for praising the Gooners I am convinced that Raffa is going to instill the same mentality for us and I cannot wait for us to be up there with em and eventually beyond!!!!

I've said that countless times, I've get stupid replies from a dumbass such as this "you know nothing about football because you live in the U.S.A." <-----stupidity,unintellectual dumbarse.

Why would I use the worst word ever in the English language? I've grown up in Europe and have always called it football

People did react harshly to the game, but we were awful

. No-one is doubting that that in the bigger picure it means nothing as we went through but it also showed how thin the squad is and how much work Rafa has to do, Diao isn't good enough, sadly Henchoz seems to be past his best , Kewell is the big mystery though something is defo not right. I'm sure Bolton on Sat will see us better .
