A steady and solid start to the campaign: the defence looking resolute, the football neat, tidy and positive, and the forward play was clinical when it needed to be. Was also really impressed how the forwards pressed all the way til the 99th minute, putting in a right shift.
Every player looked very good. Mal Benning the pick for me. Though got to say, every one of Flip-flops New signings look an improvement on the team - there's no passengers with these boys. No squad fillers or signings for the sake of things.
1 down 45 to go. Excellent start MTFC!
In that case, Mr Flitcroft, not flip-flop, please Doomy
Don't you start too. It's a blooming nickname - one I started calling him on the day he signed. It's on this forum if anyone can be arsed to look.
I once had the nickname at work of alopecia. It was a nickname, no menace was intended by it and everyone got on with life. Folks need to chill their skin. As a bloke I like Flip-flop; as a manager he needs to win me round, but I'll certainly give him more time than the vast majority.
So Flip-flop is here to stay and I won't apologise for it. So there.
I must admit that I'm a bit surprised at your misuse of certain words, Doomy.
But not to worry. The sun is shining and I'm sat in the garden in my shorts and Flitcrofts with a cold beer, nachos and sour cream dip - the holy triage.
Pessimists are never disappointed.
