I’d be very surprised if there were wholesale changes. That isn’t the way we have done things at any stage during our rise up the leagues and I don’t see that changing now. Even when we got to the championship our board were very clear about not tearing up the financial model, and continuing to...
As expected, nothing between us on the day. 1st half was ours, 2nd half yours, probably fairly even in ET.
Horrible way to decide a game of football, fair play to every penalty taker- takes balls.
Every Cov fan I met today was class, before and after the game. For those not back yet, have a...
I’ve been posting on here as a Luton supporter for most of the week and had nothing but decent responses, thank you all for your hospitality.
Almost game time. Sitting quietly drinking my body weight in ale so I have some hope of sleeping, hope our players aren’t going with the same plan...
I think most of us are more nervous than the players, counting down the number of sleeps until Wembley, and not being overly productive at work….Much like most you I expect!
Yeah, now you mention it, that’s a good comparison.
I’m not a football expert, I’m a football fan, but you could see the change in the side when RE took over- a calmer approach, which seemed to translate to the players. No panicking, drawing games we may well have lost previously, winning when...
We’ve had utter clowns in charge over the years promising stadiums with F1 tracks, floating roofs, and God knows what other nonsense. When our current board took over they inherited a total mess.
We finally got planning permission a few years back, only for Boris Johnson to appear on the telly...
He is a class act, not just in football terms, but the way he conducts himself in all aspects.
Nathan Jones did a fantastic job for us, particularly when you bear in mind we were almost certs for relegation when he came back. You got the feeling it had run its course before he left for the...
I think a couple of quality loanees are vital when operating with a limit budget, but yeah, it does leave a big hole when they return to their parent clubs. Marvelous Nakamba (Villa) and Cody Drameh (Leeds) have been massive players for us this season, though Saturday will very likely be their...
Given the amount of clubs currently in the championship that have benefitted from PL money and subsequent parachute payments, it makes the apparently “unfashionable” PO final an incredible achievement by both clubs- good for football too in my opinion, breaking up the closed circle of the same...
I’d say going up via the PO’s is probably more exciting than finishing a comfortable 2nd in the league (though I’m not speaking from experience here), but losing in them is a kick in the teeth, that much I do know.
We could throw the current bottom four out? Everton won’t mind- they’ve had a...
Completely agree.
I sometimes question why, but Talksport is the radio station that tends to be on in my car. Listening to fans of PL clubs beside themselves with anger about missing out on a European spot, I do often wonder how they’d get on with facing their club folding completely. Back in...
I think that’s the general thought in these parts too. There is what can come across like sense of entitlement with some other clubs in the Championship, like they “should” be in the PL, given our respective recent struggles, both of us being 90mins from it has put a few noses out of joint...
Evening all
Well, if anybody had said that we’d both be in this position whilst we were bouncing around non-league and you were playing at Sixfields they would have been laughed at, yet here we are. Fairly sure Sunderland and Boro were pretty confident it wouldn’t happen this time last week…...
