lol - why even bother? This World Cup is going to be a disaster from a ticket sale POV.

Lampard is a good manager who is flexible. He’ll build a good squad and we’ll have a recruitment advantage imo. We’ve got a good squad with players who will make the step up just fine. That doesn’t mean it’s ’Prem Ready’ but after a few signings, we should be alright.

I assume that they will reduce the netting by block 5/6 to squeeze extra seats. It’ll need modifications but there’s Prem stadiums that have one line of stewards segregating the fan. If anyone who’s been to Norwich away, this is what I mean.

According to his autobiography, he made it work and would go there often - he probably would’ve lived an hour or so from Boro to cut his commute ever so slightly. He was a grandad so sounds like he ‘suffered’ the most being away from everyone rather than his wife/adult kids.

Everyone thought Sunderland would get battered and they’ve cruised to safety compared to record breaking Leeds and Burnley. Making comments about the perceived strength of the Championship is irrelevant as soon as a team gets Prem money. Year on year there’s championship players making the step...

At least @shmmeee would be happy… 😉

I’m sure that it was published somewhere that he commutes from Colnbrook but haven’t found anything. For a lot of managers, they crack on with it. Neil Warnock’s family were based in Cornwall when he was manager at Middlesbrough-Lona.

@Sky Blue Pete this is how I read your title…

Good point to be fair! I’m pretty sure he lives a reasonably commutable distance to Coventry. Does he own/rent property in the West Midlands? It’s worth noting that Colnbrook is just as close to Coventry as it is to Bournemouth which where his family is based. Chelsea is truly local and bigger...

@shmmeee joint best defence in the league btw.

Even a draw all but confirms we win the title if not mathematically.

Which may have improved had he remained in post, I’m not sure to be honest. They’re a parachute payment team, have spent a lot of money and received some massive sums for players. The equipment was there for them to succeed. The only manager that comes close to Lampard this season is Neil...

Looking like a great call to be fair, I put Ipswich on my accumulator and it’s looking like it’ll let me down! Thank you for clarifying my point. To buttress that point, Eckert’s Southampton have still lost quite a lot of games v their playoff teams.

Not if 2nd gets it with 84 points - it’ll be one of the lowest tallies for automatic promotion in a long while. What our squad has achieved is undoubtedly more impressive. At this rate, it’s Boro and Ipswich who have handed Southampton automatic promotion. Southampton has consistently been the...

Best team in the division don’t you know?
