    That's a very salty interview. Robins was usually very fair in post-match interviews. Think there's a fair bit of bitterness in there.

    I think the implication was that people were saying they weren't good enough for a top-end Championship team. We can worry about the Prem if or when we get there.

    Stoke City Player Ratings

    I've always backed Thomas, but I'll admit to having doubts about Kitching up until recently. He's taken his game to a different level this season, though, and has found a discipline that was lacking before. He's cut out the silly challenges around the area and just seems calmer and more in...

    What the fuck? They've lost all comms now; ok, I get that, but they still have crowd noise. We can gauge what's going on from that. Just leave crowd noise!

    Listening to football on the radio is always a frustrating experience, but these commentators make it especially so.

    Championship thread 25/26!

    It's one thing to be a WUM of the football pitch, but another to accuse someone falsely of racism. I'm fine with balance of probability for this, it's not a criminal conviction. It would have taken into account things like instinctive reaction, which is very unlikely to be faked.

    That was for racism, wasn't it? Also the same bloke who got a similar length ban for biting. What a signing.

    Championship thread 25/26!

    A magnificent moment from our recent history. As much for the po-faced sanctimony that it elicited from O'Neil, the contemptible bell.

    Don't think it's a comb-over; it's the same haircut he's had for his adult life, only now with fewer functioning hair follicles.

    That's how I read it with Palmer, too, yeah. The difference is at least O'Hare's demands had some sort of credibility to them.

    Sam McCallum

    Is that O'Hare? I thought he wanted to be on a par with top earners, or to be the top earner, but the club didn't think he warranted that. I got the impression he'd have stayed if we'd have paid him what he felt he was worth. I'm with the club, btw; I liked (and still like) O'Hare, but I...

    Yes they can, because that's exactly what it is. Just because it's high paid employment doesn't change that.

    We were well on top before they scored, they were on top afterwards. Second half was ours. It was a thoroughly deserved, if imperfect, win.

    Boxed into a corner

    It's not so much the corner itself, but that any clearance inevitably goes to an opposition player, as all yours are packed in the box, so it means they get to keep the pressure on. There's no out ball. We saw it last night when there was a spell from corners where we couldn't get out, because...

    He didn't pretend to be sad. It's just recognition of the part we played in his career.

    Sheff Utd Player Ratings

    Thomas excellent. He looks like he could be turning into the real deal. Kitching also very good; one swivelled turn was utter filth. Torp and Saka very good too. Shout out to Sam McCallum too, who's a very good footballer, and he had a very good game, especially in the first half. Always liked...
