Lots of football fans are pricks. I concede this point. Leeds is top city, though.

60s and 70s they were. For most of my life they've been a bit of a yo-yo club (one title and a period where they almost drove themselves out of existence aside). Their achievements in the last 40 - 50 years don't warrant the arrogance of a section of their fanbase, is my point.

And they do. The the way they can go on, though, you'd think it was still the Don Revie glory days.

Leeds fans have always laboured under the misapprehension that they're a massive club, when really they're just a well-supported one. It gives them an arrogance that's not warranted. I've always rather liked Ipswich, possibly more to do with their ground being my favourite one to watch a match...

It's a t-shirt. Its mystical powers are conspicuous only by their absence.

I agree, the result in itself isn't very important, but the quality of goals being given away is worrying.

Be fair, though, he's shit in a lot of positions.

We are nowhere near good enough for the playoffs. The defence needs completely overhauling.

I like it. Pity the sponsor isn't the charity's name, but I guess that they are contractually obliged to have Monzo on the front.

Can't understand any genuine supporter of a football club trying to defend Milton Keynes. It would have been like Sisu taking us to Northampton, leaving us there and then changing the name and colours of the club. They are stolen goods; all footy fans should be in solidarity with the...

Clive's genuinely one of my favourite sports commentators. He can be a bit erratic, but he's knowledgeable, engaging, fair, and fun to listen to. Some of his commentary is iconic.

You're not a very emotionally mature man, are you, really.

Proper tiki-taka is, though. That Spain side that hoovered up all the trophies 15 or so years ago; god, it was horrible watching them. They were so, so good, and so, so boring. Death by 1,000 cuts. By contrast the Spain side that won the Euros were magnificently entertaining.

Burnley's record is amazing, and their football is boring to watch. The two are not mutually exclusive.

Tbf, in the 90s at least it was reciprocated. Midlands representation in the Prem consisted of us and them for that decade.

Are they? I mean they're a bit scruffy, but I doubt that many pay them much thought. They're not really a football club, but Milton Keynes are universally loathed, and rightly so. Apart from in Milton Keynes itself, where nobody seems to give a fuck either way.

So he did. Clough signed John McGovern four times, though. Offered him his initial contract at Hartlepool, then signed him for Derby, Leeds and Forest. He thought he could do a job, clearly.

How many times did Strachan sign Telfer? At least three.

Or just a bit short.
