Out Kastaneer Bakayoko Thompson (not had a chance but seems down the pecking order) Mason (shame but not rated by MR) Jobello (two minds really; wasn’t convinced pre injury, but he was starting to improve and he’s not had a fair chance) Shipley (possibly. Don’t hate him like a lot on here but...

Very similar to ‘we to again’ - “now we go”. In a bar in Bali watching England in the World Cup and a group of absolutely clueless cockneys sat behind us. Literally everytime we got the ball it was “now we go” repeatedly or occasionally “now we fucking go”. They also kept referring to Ashley...

Officially “retired” pretty young a few years ago as I was sick of being injured. Resisted the temptation to go back every year since, especially now with two kids as wouldn’t be able to commit and all previous teams are pretty serious. That aside, if this is happening and it’s not something...

Wild Beer Co - Nebula. Hazy IPA with strong fruit flavours, from a usually very reliable and innovative brewery - didn’t disappoint!

Haha weirdly I liked the accent!! Reminded me of the accents of the characters in Fortitude, that English/Scandinavian twang!

Brooklyn generally tend to be a little underwhelming I think, I had their Defender IPA pre covid and felt the same. I did enjoy the orange pale last night, but I think that’s probably slightly influenced by the novelty of having a beer again!

Don’t want this called off - really looking forward to it. Enough positives to take from Wednesday, which I hope is a turning point. The pitch will likely be even poorer than last game, but I say we have enough technically able players to cope and if we use a high press with COH, Gyokeres et...

Not ran since last Monday, so nearly two weeks when I tested positive for Covid. Starting to feel more human now and getting the urge to run. However my fitness is going to be terrible; I was shattered after just walking my daughter around the block. Going to be a slow build to get back to...

First day I’ve felt like having a beer since Covid. The local coop had a few crafts so I’ve treated myself to Naranjito by Brooklyn Brewery. It’s an Orange flavoured pale - I’ve had it before and was slightly underwhelmed, but it tastes very good tonight!

Started Black Sails this week. Wasn’t sure after the first few episodes; characters weren’t that engaging, production seemed a bit cheap and stories not that deep. However, I stuck with it and I’m now into series 2 and really enjoying it. Still nothing on The Last Kingdom though, that really...

Always liked Pask and I’m pleased to see did well last night. As someone else said, he has all the attributes to be an asset, but he needs a run of competitive games to pull them together, and to find both match fitness and sharpness. It’ll all help with confidence too. However, I fear the...

It’s not clear to be honest. Variations of 4-3-3/4-2-3-1/4-3/2-1. So were definitely playing a back four and we’re playing pretty narrow, relying on Dabo and McCallum for width.

Started well and dropped off the last 5. Game has become very sloppy. We need to start playing football again - we have a lot of good technical players on show today. As I say that, we put together a very good move.

One for the Sheaf haters. That’ll excite some.

One of those that’s definitely a pen, but will rarely get given.

Decent enough start, we look to be on the front foot. Not convinced it’s a diamond. Sort of 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1 with Biamou centre and COH/Gyokeres pulling wide.

I don’t know what to expect tonight, in terms of performance, team selection and tactics. I still feel if we play offensively we have a chance against most teams. And that’s definitely the case tonight. I thought Gyokeres looked like he had something about him, the key is trying not to isolate...

Does anyone have any go to review sites? I’m always interested to read reviews (not recaps) of episodes, as I find it intriguing the aspects others pull out or view as significant. I have used AV Club quite a bit but their coverage of shows has decreased and they’ve picked some poor shows to...

Despite my reservations I started The Last Kingdom. I’m half way through series 4 and it’s fantastic. Having read the books is both a help and a hindrance; the former as you know the characters and have connections already, the latter as the deviations from the book immediately annoy me...

Update for anyone interested, Day 4 of experiencing symptoms and today I thought I was starting to improve slightly. However, after taking my daughter for a few laps round the garden to try and get her some fresh air/tire her out, I’m shattered and feeling as shit as I did yesterday. My partner...
