If we're already offering shit songs, I'd go for: Ephron, Ephron, you're my Ephron And baby you can turn me on* *not necessarily true, but I'm not overly fussy

Interestingly, the origin of Awooga has been linked to John Fashanu, Kris Akabusi, and Craig Charles. It's first known use was by Holly in Red Dwarf, so Charles is a possibilty, although likely originated from the writers of Red Dwarf, Naylor and Grant. #deadlinedayfacts

Game of opinions innit. To me he looks like he expects more time on the ball than he actually has, and likely needs a few weeks / games to work out the pace of the English game. If that's a weird take, then I'll own it.

Collins 7 (+1 for the wonder save) MVE 6 Thomas 7 Kitching 6 Bidwell 5 Sheaf 6 Eccles 4 Palmer 5 COH 6 Godden 4 Saka 7 Torp 5 Simms 6 Wright 5 Not getting the same hype as others around Torp so far (although the debut goal was obviously top drawer). Looks a touch off the pace to me. Hopeful...

Didn't Cobi Jones win a penalty on his debut vs Leeds? It was an age ago and I haven't checked online, so probably wrong!

Separate to the racism element, but I listened to a podcast with Steve Claridge last night. Under no circumstances could he be described as lazy, he never stopped running. But he said that one manager told him just to stick around the 18 yard box, and not to track back to get the ball, which was...

Aware that I will sound like a grumpy old man, but I dislike stats like this. It's only been branded as League 2 since 2004. Records should be 'all time' for that level, imo (acknowledging that assist stats probably didn't exist in 1958).

Think I might be going against the grain, but I thought Torp looked a bit shocked by the pace - probably used to more time on the ball. If he hadn't scored I'd have said he was distinctly average (which isn't a criticism, given it's his first game in English football) and given a 5, but I'd bump...

Made the back page of tomorrow's Express. Hope we do walk off if it happens. Make a stand against this shit.

My general footballing knowledge is pretty good, but that name rings no bells. Never really considered backup players getting an international medal. Must feel a bit hollow if you haven't stepped foot on the pitch. Going off at a tangent, but was looking at Cole Palmer's medals earlier, and he...

If someone turns us down from a footballing perspective, he's tarred for life in my book. Still hate Lee Bowyer with a passion for that sole reason. Bastard.

Who was it? I'm on tenterhooks!

This is some what Palmer is accused of:

Some terrible takes on Twitter / X, but did find this mildly amusing.

I think we vastly under-rate our own players. I'm certainly guilty of it. And home-grown players even moreso. But I reckon 20 of the 24 teams in this division would happily have Eccles in their first team or on their bench. He's far better than we give him credit for. Like MR said, Eccles could...

6-0 at half time. Goals galore. Reda Johnson lumbers onto the pitch and sprays his luminous yellow piss against the corner flag. Game abandoned. Chaos descends. That or a 1-0 win. Undecided.

I'm so happy I've got two.

What a team we have here. Brilliant to a man. I fucking love this club.

The thing I took away was how terrible Mark Robins' attempt to grow a beard is.
