We tried to sign McNally and failed. We all wanted to sign him iirc. At our club for half a season he had one poor game (Stoke) and one sub-par game (Wembley). Kind of agree w you about his distribution but I wd hope that was something that he would have improved with coaching. I like both...
Accept all of that but we’re likely to play Lati at right back and MVE in front of him. I think we’ve made progress given we lost our two undoubted stars and reliance on loans but I’m not sure that we look stronger than last season when we were, by and large reliable defensively. This season we...
I’d take McNally and Doyle over our current defence and Norton-Cuffy actually was our best defender on the day.
Add in Hamer and Gyökeres and I’m not sure of the point that we’re stronger overall.
It’s a PFA award not an EFL one. Even then, he scored a hattrick March 5th in the league vs Rotherham. Plus 2 goals against premier league opposition in the cup and another hat trick on Feb 26 against Maidstone . Seems bizarre not to include him

He never fails to remind us when we go to...
Very poor. Palmer’s tackle on the touchline given a foul was mysterious. Their player getting a foul for sitting on the ball while Palmer complained he could get to it was even more baffling. Missed loads and was as bad for both sides. He missed a blatant elbow from Bidwell seconds before we...
Parked a minibus at Wembley last year. Wasn’t too bad getting out but the last 2 miles getting in were possibly the longest of my life. So frustrating to be able to see the ground and be stuck behind thousands of stationary vehicles to get to our designated place (was supposed to be for cov fans...
He’s already using the “perfectly negative yet entertaining throughout” quote.
He was actually very partisan on Saturday. He even thought the ref should have given several fouls in our favour that were ignored.
