    Nice v Marseille

    I'm not sure. I'll ask my sister's daughter who lives in France. She's a lovely person, always willing to help when she can. She's my nice niece in Nice

    21/22 Summer transfer mega-thread

    I've already got a chant based around The Lion Sleeps Tonight. Or the Wacaday theme.

    Nice v Marseille

    Covid is just the straw that broke the camels back. There's plenty more that people are angry about and have been for a long time. People have been showing restraint and biting their lips for a long time and at some point they're going to say enough is enough.

    Match Thread Reading

    Agree wholeheartedly about an hour game with a stopped clock with a timekeeping official in charge. I'm also open to the idea of a sin bin for yellows, esp if done alongside a stopped clock otherwise teams could try and time waste until their player was back on the field. If that were to happen...

    Premier League thread

    Funny though. If they keep this up it won't be long before other clubs start stealing their better players, big name signings will turn them down and promising youngsters will join other academies. And then they'll start moaning about how unfair the system is when they were one of the main...

    Callum O'Hare song

    If we're nit picking Callum o'Hare doesn't scan for the second line either.

    Waghorn.....

    I think he has a 5% pay rise per week written into his contract too.

    The Very Curious Case of Julian Assange

    So you say the PRIME MINISTER can't do much but you think the position of the leader of the (weak) opposition is important?

    Squad Depth

    Pace by itself isn't enough and does need decent ball control and shooting skills. Obv if said player can't hit a barn door chances are defences won't be that afraid to let them in behind but to have a pacy option is useful. If an opposition is pushed up and pressing you, having that player who...

    Squad Depth

    I agree, though I'd have had Pask as RCB and Dabo at RWB.

    Squad Depth

    I don't think the two of them are vying for the same spot as Shipley is more attacking. Eccles will by vying with/filling in for Kelly and over time will probably take his place when Kelly eventually leaves Shipley is vying more with Allen for a spot in the squad and thus far Allen is doing...

    Ratings v Reading

    We can never know, but going on how the team were playing pre-injuries we'd have had to improve quite a bit to be as good as we were post injuries. We just seemed to look better almost immediately when those changes were enforced on the team, and given we kept using those new systems suggests...

    Waghorn.....

    Waghorn will play a part this year, but at this stage he looks like the fourth choice striker if everyone's fit. You can question whether a fourth choice striker is worth the amount he's probably being paid, or whether that money could have been better spent bringing in two players on lesser...

    Ratings v Reading

    He has had some luck in terms of having a preferred system that he's then had to change due to injuries (Andreu/Jones/Jobello) which has worked in our favour. Of course he had to get those changes right, but you do wonder if he'd have changed those systems if those players had remained...

    That's a bit unfair isn't it? Sending teams up before a game's been played.

    Waghorn.....

    I'd have Gyo and either Walker or Godden first, but if Gyo was unavailable I'd probably play Walker and Godden together first than pair either up with Waghorn. But saying that I think those two would be better partners for Waghorn than Gyo.

    Surely it should be no surprise a team called Reading barely make a noise and have an atmosphere like a library
