Because they try stupid things. I know folks who work in hospitality and they tell me that having a balcony around a lawn is the worst thing a hotel can do because people try all kinds of stupid things from jumping to throwing thing on the lawn when they're drunk, etc. Back on topic, RIP Liam.

There's really no mystery to why these things do well from a music standpoint in the modern era. Most bands have folks who do this kind of research for them. If you ride your success well and work the market to your advantage based on the more popular music choices of the era you're going to win. This isn't just a voice, its a choice in chord pattern, melody staging, etc. Some artists just do better than others for this fact alone. Music producers are the real MVPs in the game these days.

It's certainly evolved to a point of no return in modern football. I honestly don't care what the guy does after he leaves us because that chapter of his career is over and at the same time, I am not going to pretend that anyone would be upset if their team (local/supported/NT) started doing really well. There is of course a section of the football watching/matchgoing population that think this way but it's certainly not how the clubs or countries view what their long-term goals are.

I don't think having Kelleher in goal is going to be as bad as we think it might be. Our defense is doing very well and I am sure Slot has a plan for how he wants to get through this period. I don't think with the fixture congestion we were going to get away with a perfect run anyways.

Could have done worse. Could have gone and managed a team like Madrid. Wish him the best of luck, he did more than he had to for the club. What would be nice to see is what he does as the NT coach of Germany if that ever happens.

Shaved his beard and it all went downhill from there.

I'd say we've done well considering we're up a goal but since the goal we've not really been able to finish or get into something advantageous in the final third. Fully expect the second half to rectify that.

Might be some time yet John. If someone else wants to run one that might be your best bet for now.

I'm in the same bucket here. Think their earlier work is certainly miles better than what is out now.

I always make fun of the guy but I really do hope he recovers soon. His energy is something this team can definitely use.

I hope Gravenberch snubs him again. I'd love to hear what he has to say then.

Sad that I had to miss this because of a gig but from the highlights it looks like we've only increased the intensity we play with. I am loving the fact that Diaz is having the kind of start to the season he is. The man works hard and its paying in dividends for him. I also like the fact that Gravenberch is slowly getting better with each game, I think this all really boils down to the manager just putting faith in someone to operate in a position he wasn't being used in before and he's flourishing. May it long continue.

Get in Mo!!

And we're off.

Looking a little more like we're going for it.
