    Trying to be balanced at least JWE offers something as an attacking threat and possibly could cause defenders to worry as technically he’s sound. BNC however is just so clumsy on the ball, is rarely offering as an outlet and when he does most of the time he looks for the sideways/backward pass.

    He looked more confident than previous games was my point; but since then he’s reverted. Him and BNC offer absolutely zero.

    How was there so much space? Completely and absolutely exposed way too easily. Actually thought JWE had started fairly confidently as well.

    Wasn’t supposed to be there today as had a rare child free day so we had a day out planned, however the weather has ruined that and my partner said she is ‘fine’ with me going now…. We all know that doesn’t actually mean fine, but I’m going with it. Not massively confident, but holding out...

    Couple of things I want to watch on Paramount+, because of course we all need to subscribe to another service. Anyway, has anyone seen a decent free trial offering? Best I’ve seen is 7 days.

    Running

    Used to be a regular contributor to this forum and over Covid and beyond, went from a non-runner to running a weekly Sunday half and circa 40 miles a week. Even running a marathon PB of 4 hours. It all stopped about 18-24 months ago, the usual but valid (!) excuses; we had a second baby which...

    Godden being Godden and offering nothing. But tbf whole team look very very poor. Offering nothing at all and way too passive.

    Doug King just spoke - have to say, he seems a genuinely nice bloke and has no interest in the spotlight. Joe Elliot on now trying to hog the spotlight, shock.

    No ale on tap in the Legends Day event bar and a quiche to start. Not impressed.

    Wouldn't it be good....Blackburn (away)

    Really really tempted by this, just absolutely no idea how I make it fly with the partner.

    Maybe it’s because I’m over excited re how big a game this is for our season, but I really think Walker will have a good game today (hoping he starts). We’ve seen a few times this season Gyokeres marked out of the game and doubled up on, but nobody take advantage of the space, I think Walker...

    When are people going to understand

    Sad thing is, we all know it’ll only take a few bad results - whatever league we’re in next year - and the MR out narrative will start again.

    Biamou may not be in the same “legend” category as some, but a) he’s certainly more so than some listed and b) he was a pivotal part of the beginning of journey we’re currently on. Perhaps it’s seen as “cool” to slate Biamou, but actually it’s pretty nonsensical and narrow minded if his...

    Haha! I’ll be sure to ask all guests for their SBT names on arrival….

    Different experience to usual for me again tomorrow as I’m hosting a couple of tables for work as part of “Legends Day”. I’ve even forced my partner to come, albeit I doubt she’ll watch the game. I have warned I’ll be the ultimate professional until 3, then it’s a different story! Great to...

    Remaining games

    Not going to do the predictor but what an exciting time to be a Cov fan, again! Being this close it will be disappointing if we miss out, and there’s LOTS of ‘if only’ moments to reflect on, coupled with injuries and off pitch stuff. But either way it’s a good end to the season, a long long...

    Been attempting a few light hearted, short episode type series to watch with the partner recently: Extraordinary (Apple TV) - really enjoyed it. A few missed jokes, but overall got enough solid chuckles from me and the characters (well three of the four main ones) are pretty engaging too. Quite...
