Yep, the double over Ipswich would be a massive statement and from there, I couldn’t imagine us failing the win the title.

True, Grimes was a bit of a shock and it’s arguably been the best signing since Gyokeres. Fatawu would probably cost £20m and I’m still shocked a Prem club didn’t sign him in the summer. As of right now, we’re potentially already champions elect which is a huge selling point for signings this Jan.

My first away game was Barnsley. A few of my mates came with and I sold it as ‘we always beat them, easy W’… we lost. We’ve generally been a lot better than Barnsley but what’s strange about our Deepdale curse is that most of the time, PNE have been just as bad as us. One of the reasons we’ve...

I’d love that, how humiliating would that be for Leicester? It’ll wipe that smug smirk from Gary Lineker’s face too. Alas, it’s just not gonna happen.

I’ve said it the last few times too. In fairness, we always seem to play them when we’re not on form. In 22/23, 23/24 and 24/25, our form has been rotten. It’s depressingly amusing that we’ve only beaten PNE twice away since 1910. It is our ultimate bogey team, especially away from home.

Depends what is meant by ‘Championship winger’, could it mean Dibling? Who hasn’t played for Everton yet. @Jimmy87’s source is great at giving just enough information. We’ll have to wait and see, we’ll surely be looking to be aggressive this window because an injury crisis looks like the only...

100% having a second winger that’s direct and takes people would help our attack a lot. It was quite interesting reading a Sakamoto interview where he said that he doesn’t take that many players and likes playing with MVE’s overlapping runs. I feel like we need another winger for competition who...

I really do believe that this year is the year we break the hoodoo mate. I don’t know about you, just beating PNE away would be symbolic that it is our year and it would be a huge psychological boost for the fans and players.

To clarify, I said it’s ‘either or’ for those two players because they play on the same position. I think we need to sign one ‘out and out’ winger and then an AM who can play out wide.

Mehmeti isn’t playing on the wing this season and has mostly AM in his career. Not to dismiss it out of hand, but the hint is so broad, it could about 30-40 players and doubt the source would describe a player who’s mostly played AM as a winger. It’d be like an Ipswich source saying ‘we’ve...

Mehmeti and Manneh are both wingers/AM, it’s an either or situation there. Our recruitment will be left field I think.

When I think about things ‘rationally’, I can’t see us losing against anyone atm. I’m leaning towards a 3-2 win but a draw wouldn’t be so bad. As long as we beat PNE away on Tuesday, I’m ok with that.

I think some of their issues are the same ones we had last season. We could see our strikers struggle with being constantly chopped and changed and the changing of formations a few times didn’t help. Imo, Ipswich have the best squad in the league but als coming the view that it’s overkill...

Ipswich will also be thinking more about how to handle us. We’ve scored more away goals than they have at home and our form is a lot better. I’m more confident about this fixture than a week ago and don’t think we’ll lose. They’ve beaten one team in the top half so can see why their fans are...

Agreed but it certainly beats the awkward questions of ‘who owns the ground now’ or ‘I remember when Coventry were in the Prem’. I’ve never even seen my club play in the Prem 😂

Their assessment of that Derby team is delusional. All those top loanees they had broke out at Derby… they were never a automatic promotion team and the Villa team that beat were just objectively a better team in every way. Seen their ‘manager ranking’ and it’s just a terrible take.

Agreed on that, I find most games that the AI will happily have 60-70% possession in their own half and very rarely threaten the goal. It’s far too easy and frankly makes the game a little bit boring and I’m playing ‘legendary’ which in previous titles years ago, I’d get battered.

Have we been linked with Neilsen? It’s not a name I recognise! Who is he and where does he play?

The bookies won't even take your money on us making the playoffs, they're that sure we'll make the playoffs. All models indicate we'd need to capitulate to mess up even automatic promotion because as people have mentioned, the amount of wins needed to hit 90 points for the other teams is...

The old adage is ‘innocent until proven guilty’, is it not? By all means, take the allegation seriously but the onus is to provide proof that the alleged incident(s) took place. In any case, what someone says as a child or young adult generally isn’t reflective of what they think as an adult.
