Thats the one! Preston's way more impressive given the circumstances.

Feels to me like one of those games. Preston last ditch defending for most of the game and it paid off. Trying to remember the last team that pulled this off against us - but it can happen and you have to give them credit - they worked extremely hard for it. On another night, Wright walks away...

We're top of the league by 10 points having scored 50 goals... there is nothing much negative you can say? It's the most surface level commentary from all of them. The only inkling of insight was Keane talking vaguely about ownership and how the club is run off the field, but none of them have...

I can't get past all of the bait they blast on social media to ever consume any of the supposed long form bollocks it was derived from. It may well be they're actually smart and balanced in reality, but I can't respect anyone who is playing the bait game. This playbook is of course well trodden...

One thing I'm not enjoying at the moment, is everyone having a take on us when clearly they don't have any knowledge of the league or what the club has been doing in the last decade. It's painful. Everyone has to have a take of course, because we're top and Lampard is involved. If we were to...

Nothing wrong with cross posting, or x-posting(get it!?). To suggest the club should leave twitter because we don't like the person who runs it or some of the people who congregate there is a massive slippery slope. Did we all forget Facebook (#1 on your MAU ranking) and who runs that and what...

Yeah, that's the thing that must eat away at you, you're propping them up. Likely we wouldn't have made it up the leagues without this kind of contribution, as much as it sucks that SISU mismanaged us into that situation.

You're right, some of it didn't sound like $$$ per se, but just time and connections. That said, if I had that sort of money you're mentioning - as you say, 1M invested into the sort of stuff he was talking about would have gone a long way back then, compared to now - and would be nothing to...

Felt it was a pretty unsatisfying interview and a lot of detail was left on the table. For example - why weren't Hoffman and Joy/SISU getting on - why specifically did they not want to name a price for the club? At a certain point, it sounded like SISU basically gave Boddy a very fixed budget...

I interpreted the way he left the field on Saturday as pure frustration at his own performance - he looked super pissed off with how the game had gone for him. Players, especially strikers tend to have these streaks. In this patch of poor scoring form I've seen him battling more, coming deep to...

It's obvious but in 4 decades from the 90s onwards the big Wembley moments hit me at my core. The two things I think about regularly are: 1. That Hamer goal Vs Luton and the sheer feeling in that moment that we were going to win the game and promotion. The relief and the noise. 2. That Torp...

Been a while since we did a dotcounters & nerds run, so here we are:

There are various options in the survey about game attendance and overseas etc as well as capturing the country you live in - so it is a consideration. But regardless of whether you watch 1 game on iFollow or all of them, it's a service they provide and it's pretty clear with their actions they...

Just to give you an insight into where the EFL's priorities are - there's no ability to give feedback on iFollow at all in the EFL supporter's survey. I noticed a single question where iFollow was a checkbox about how you watch games, but nowhere are you able to tell them how shit it is :) .

Why shouldn’t a business reward new customers?

Feel like there's a lot of people criticising that strategy who deep down just wish it was them getting it early / for free etc. Regardless of whether you are into the whole idea of "content generation" it cannot be denied that this type of strategy does have impact on what people buy. The club...

Given how the game went, got to be happy with a point. Not being able to start with EMC left us very shallow when it came time to change things up. A game like this where a few players are drifting out of the game or injured/struggling really exposes the squad. All in all, great point away from...

It is reasonable to push for a refund, but I never had any luck doing that when the system was unusable for many games last year, due their own faulty & over-zealous abuse detection systems. The only way really is to stop subscribing and find alternatives, as grim as that is.

Yes, this is what Doug was angling for ever since he came in and began to recruit senior executives and subject matter experts that reported to him, which likely made Robins pretty uncomfortable. This is a more stable structure and does mean that if Lampard went although would be disruptive in...

I believe the club have limited control over the system and will just shrug because it's not something they control. The contact I had at the club who also had some choice iFollow feedback has gone silent, I think because there is nothing they feel they can do about it.
