    Transfer targets

    Has Alan Nixon ever got anything right? I think we underestimate how difficult it is to scout & recruit players at our level and that there will be the odd one that doesn't work out. It seems a lot easier for the big 6 in PL and teams like Barcelona, Real, Bayern etc as they always tend to buy...

    Sven-Göran Eriksson

    My best friend died in May 2021 after fighting metastic cancer of bowel & liver for 3 years. Bravery & dignity doesn't come close to describing how he dealt with it and at the beginning of May he told me that he thought his time was up. I managed to get to see him a couple of days before he died...

    New York

    I was there in january 1996 and it was -30C in upstate NY and there was about 3 foot of snow In NYC. In january 2006 when I was there, there was about a foot of snow and then 3 days later it was 15C and we were walking around in t-shirts.

    Things that annoy you

    All the disposable vapes that are discarded wherever the user is whenever they are finished with. How did they even make it to market? Did nobody mention the environmental issue of millions of these things ending up in landfills all over the world and never ever decomposing?

    Sheffield Wednesday 20th Jan

    The noise after they equalised was incredible and their fans were right behind them for a couple of minutes and we had to dig in and hold on which we did. Probably my favourite game that season and the best I think that we played.

    Death List 2024

    As an Englishman I remember him terrorising England in what I remember as every game he played. My uncle was Welsh and a massive Rugby fan and he took me and my dad to an exhibition game in Cardiff next to the Arms Park and playing was "that" team so I can say that I watched JPR, JJ, John Dawes...

    FA CUP 4TH ROUND DRAW - MONDAY 19:50 (ish)

    Maidstone & Eastleigh? Don't know if we've ever played at Wrexham. Edit: We played Wrexham in League Cup home & away in 1994 and also against them in division 3 in the 1960s.

    FA Cup 23/24

    You must have turned it off for the 2nd half highlights then, I watched all 8 on my tv

    How is it equal to have VAR in only some games in the same round?

    I hope one of the big teams draws Maidstone away so they can complain about the plastic pitch. Are plastic pitches actually allowed in the EFL?

    Total Dominance

    Probably was. Do you think that is why @gruffskyblue was taken to that one? 😉🤣 From memory semi final tickets weren't that difficult to get hold of, I went with 4 others & only 1 who went a couple of times beforehand.

    FA Cup 23/24

    His foul for the penalty was like an NFL tackle 🤣 That O'Nien prick was shit as usual.

    Total Dominance

    If that was the 3-0 win against Oxford just after 1/4 final FA Cup win that was pretty one-sided? The 4-0 win at Carlisle under Pressley was another one and under MR the 2-0 win against QPR last season.

    Millwall Game Moved

    I'll probably be coming down to this with my son who struggles to make games on a Saturday as he plays football although he is going to the Leicester game. Will be my 6th home game of the season & the only 1 I was planning to go to but couldn't was the WBA game as Monday's are almost impossible...

    Sheffield Wednesday 20th Jan

    I won't be going so you could use mine but I have less than 300 points & don't think they'll be any left on 1st allocation. You're welcome to try though
