    Strikers bar….. blimey had forgotten about that! Never went in, like the old Sky Blue Tavern. so many stories. did a football course once in the elephant at the sports centre, was over a few weeks, and my dad would take me fishy moores afterwards then we’d walk up the hill if there was a game...

    20 years on

    I often talk to my kids about it - what it was like. The smells, how pokey it was inside the stands with some of the little kiosks almost built into the walls At some point I sat in every bit which I’m pleased about. First games were in the Main Stand, then the West Stand family stand as it was...

    wrexham

    Budget wise though the pair of them will be comparable to the parachute teams - so it’ll be how that’s spent and what players they can attract that will be key. And that’s just from revenues - apparently Wrexham shirt sales is on a premier league level cos of the documentary - absolutely crazy...

    Referee on Saturday

    The assistant VAR for the wolves game is also one of the linesperson/assistants for Saturday. Natalie Aspinall. One of the top drawer female officials along with Sian Massey.

    Who would you sell?

    Presumably promotion should it happen affects whether Sheaf leaves or not?

    Astonishing (potential) stat

    I’m not moaning about it, just saying and making some observations, that’s all. I’ll be ecstatic if Sheffield utd fuck it up in the playoffs. And it’s their own fault for buying players they couldn’t afford.

    Astonishing (potential) stat

    I’m not saying we shouldn’t, of course, we’d ’deserve’ it. but it’s just the quirk of the playoffs isn’t it. You can finish nearly 30 points behind the top three and still go up having lost as many games as you’ve won. I remember some pundit years ago suggesting a team wouldn’t be ready if...

    Final games of old

    Last ever game at highfield road I think we had to not lose to guarantee our status in championship, but obviously we did it in style. Great day and evening in town afterwards that was.

    Final games of old

    Up to the halfway line, and back again…. Up to the halfway line, and back again…. definitely a gentleman’s agreement on that one.

    Astonishing (potential) stat

    Preston have also scored the same amount of goals as Millwall - essentially 1 per game, yet Millwall are going for playoffs too. then you start to think along the same lines, should a club get promotion to premier league if they’ve lost 37% of their matches in the championship…. Sheff utd lost...

    Championship thread 24/25!

    In the palace villa game they were doing pre match analysis and someone said that a 25 yard pass in a game by Adam Wharton was ‘world class’ - well not really. It was alright but hardly that good

    Championship thread 24/25!

    And Bellingham was completely anonymous in every game he’s played against us in the championship, not even this season, every season. Massively overrated

    Championship thread 24/25!

    So Hamer wins the player of season and the two goals they show are the Cov ones. What a piss take.
