I don't think it constitutes irony (maybe we could ask an expert like Alannis Morrisette?) but the cup draw felt virtually certain once we got into that position. I don't think Birmingham will actually go down but it would be bizarre to pass them on the way up.

Yeah, got to be (but with a real shout out going to Steve Staunton also). I think Staunton was more of a 'past his prime' case though, Gordon wasn't particularly old from memory. Just shit.

Hopefully they're working through in alphabetical order

Michael Crapindoe was far, far better against us than playing for us. In terms of faded ability De Zeeuw and Hendry definitely stick out though, and Holdsworth.

The rumours were putting it at around £1m but i doubt we'll know for sure, they're invariably undisclosed fees

This is very, very positive news. I've been concerned about the impact of coronavirus etc on the future of the club but clearly there cannot be any fears from the owners if we're commiting to spending money like this

The most obvious one to base something on (home shirt i mean) would be where they had the white top third with blue below it. It must be boring for any designers assigned that account, similar with Newcastle probably, you know what it has to be before you even start!

There's not much variation to Everton kits in general i suppose, i don't remember the last one that wasn't a solid blue with a few tweaks to the trim maybe

We don't need to discuss the Butts when there's a perfectly good IKEA to bulldoze down the road

He's very effective in the RWB role so i'd much prefer to see him kept there. I'm sure he could 'do a job' in central midfield but why bother if we can just get an actual centre-mid to play there would be my view. Plus we'd have to replace Dabo at rwb which wouldn't be very easy.

Andre Dozzell at Pisswich might fit the bill too (skillful, young) although i think he may be a bit pricey for us. I didn't see the Bolton game but Politic does seem to be rated and could be a good shout.

Oh i was ranting at us too, but i just can't let go of my irrational dislike for Sheffield United!

Matty Taylor from Bristol City could be decent. I dont think he has scored too many at Championship level but i also can't seeing us being able to afford a striker with a proven record in the division either

I think winning the JPT Final went a long way to instilling a sense that we could actually win the big games too. Even so i always think back to the Mansfield game as being the big turning point for that season, we still had wobbles (wtf was that Yeovil game all about!?) But this game really...

It was very traumatic. I think Euro 96 were my first football related tears but this is well up there for heartbreak.

I 'watched' that shootout on teletext and have never, ever forgiven Sheffield United for beating us. Bastards.

Cheers! What's the potential points deduction for you guys all about? FFP? Really looking forward to a season in the Championship, im hopeful that momentum will see us have a good return but we will have to buy well over whatever transfer window we get.

By immediately fretting about how we'll compete in the Championship.

A win for Dunky then surely!?

A friend who has Strava reckons this was set on a bike as there are big differences between 'moving time' and 'elapsed time' and a few sections where he's running at sub 3 minute miles. The only way to settle it is to get Travs to challenge him to a race tbh.
