One for the stats gurus, how many times per game does Collins play a meaningful long pass and how many have resulted in goals. We know he’s costing us goals so is the supposed major benefit actually doing us any good?

Always wonder if people who say things like ‘they should just give up the land’, ‘move somewhere else’ or similar would be happy with that if it was happening here.

This is where there should be a change. Still not mandatory in many leagues. But we’re talking about a sport where visors have only been in use a few years. Think about footballers and their laughably small shin guards, the reality is a lot of professional athletes choose not to wear all the...

There’s millions of Palestinian refugees aren’t there? How easy is it for those still there to get out and head to another country? That’s of course assuming they want to leave. We have people complaining when people want to leave war torn countries, ‘why don’t they stay and fight’ and now...

Someone at a game the other night commented who first stepped on the ice and thought attaching sharp blades to your feet was a good idea. I guess there’s a point where if you’re taking part in an inherently dangerous activity you’re accepting the risk. Although I think this tragedy made a lot...

Would love for him to prove everyone wrong and have 4 world class performances to finish the season. Can’t see it happening sadly. So it’s a case off desperately hoping the defence do a good enough job that he has nothing to do which also seems unlikely.

Thanks chaps but I’ll be at a hockey rink watching GB so the chances of good enough WiFi to stream the game are slim.

I’ll be in Sfantu Gheorghe, Romania. Zero chance anywhere will be showing it. Going to have to rely on twitter

What’s going on lads, can’t watch as getting on a plane but I’ve got Lati with his foot pointing the wrong way but also standing up and coming back on!

Said this when he came in, he's the obvious choice as one of only a handful of players who won't often be rotated out of the squad. Suspect the only reason is didn't happen immediately was to make sure it didn't piss off the rest of the squad with someone walking through the door and...

Old enough to remember being able to walk up to the likes of Highbury and Stamford Bridge and pay on the gate. Even when Arsenal were redeveloping Highbury and had that stupid mural thing up at one end of the ground you could still pay on the gate and that was a tiny away allocation shoved in...

8 pages of people ranting that the club must do something about this guy having a ticket and multiple people on twitter tagging the club trying to stop him going to the game seems a bit odd to me but if you think its normal behaviour crack on.

There's people on this thread asking Pete to run to the club and get the bloke who has this ticket barred from attending the game and the bloke who gave it to him get some sort of punishment.

Has he sold it or has he given it because they're two very different things. Re-sale of football tickets isn't allowed, gifting is tolerated. The club have said at the supporters group meetings in the past that while passing your ticket to someone else technically isn't allowed as long as they...
