I was thinking more the Kai Wagner one I’d highlighted, where he’s shot from the left and almost hit the corner flag on the same side. Might actually go searching for a video of it.
Please find it. That's tonight's homework.

Edit. I didn't actually realise what that was showing initially other than Blues can't finish (apart from against us.) What on earth was he even trying?

One of the 5 is a cup game but agree they will drop points
I think it’s more just the schedule they have.

I’d rather have the 5 including the cup, than just 4 away games in the league if you get what i mean

I like the fact they've got Wrexham in the Cup then league.
Hopefully there's loads of needle in the cup game and they kick fuck out of each other in the league.

We should do that on here rather than the way we do it , wonder if thats possible

It happens every match day on the bbc site (where those ratings are from). The ratings from the winning team are *always* significantly higher than for the losers (largely because fewer of the fans on the losing side can be arsed to rate their players out of ten and those that do are often keen to show their anger with their team).

what’s his name
Carlos Vicente - RW - Alaves. Has started 10 games in LaLiga this season, and made 10 more appearances off the bench. Scored 4 league goals - 1 of which was against Real Madrid and another against Atletico. 5G/3A in 4 Copa del Rey appearances as well.

Has a £17m release clause which Alaves are trying to get as much of as possible.

Birmingham spunking money on signings can only be a good thing for us at this stage of the season.

Ipswich fans seem to be thinking they are not even half the side without Nunez - who was injured today

Am I right in my thinking that Ipswich and Hulls game in hand is against each other?

Turned out reasonably well yesterday.
Given the convincing loss by Ipswich.
Well beaten from 10min highlights i watched. Ipswich away form still suspect.
Confidence dented.

Looking at it from your point of view, it's hard to imagine being anything but happy after yesterday's results.

Granted, everyone else currently in the top 6 won which ought to be kept in the back of our minds, but feasibly the likelihood is that it's 2 from 3 for the autos, so you only need 1 of the other 2 to slip up to make it a gain.

Essentially it's a game in hand gained on 3rd and proof that Ipswich's away form will still cause the blue machine hiccups in their run in. They have more away games left than homes still as well, with this being their overall haul from their aways so far;

Granted we play them at their place, but this is one reason we don't fear them so much in our head to head. We currently have the most points gained from away games of any side in all four divisions.

Most people who rate on the site probably don’t even see the games
The BBC 'slide rule' ratings is the easiest thing to give zeros etc... utterly pointless.

Ratings, on the whole, are just as pointless... unless done by ACTUAL experts.

You know the 'expert' types... Simon Jordan, Mark Goldbridge, and people who roll around & scream whilst live on youtube.

Thing is, these things are never that accurate, as there are always sides that suddenly go on great runs and sides that drop like a stone.

That table there obviously pretty much looks like (in terms of league position) it does now and it WILL look different.

No idea who will drop like a stone and who will go on unbeaten runs all of a sudden, but there will be a few surprises.
