Yes, exactly. It is likely that the team will continue to change from week to week as the season progresses and suspensions, injuries, tiredness and tactical considerations come into play. Rudoni coming back won't be a simple case of displacing one particular player.

Its a bit of a Wright like call from the Man U semi final (although not so match defining). Its not exactly clear at what exact point the ball was played to EMC and I remember at the time not even being sure if it was BTA who definitely played it through to him or whether it was played back by...

It was given against EMC, not Wright.

Yes, we have some weird fans. I remember some idiot on here trying to boost his ITK credentials by doing likewise when Sakamoto had his injury a couple of seasons ago.

XG is definitely an indicator of a possible upturn or downturn in future performance as 'luck' starts to even out, although clearly there will also be other factors in play. When MR left last season our XG was an example of that, but even so by the time FL was able to turn the situation into...

Rushworth had an excellent game overall. His save from Louza was absolutely top drawer as it would have beaten most keepers in the Championship, and his reading of one on one situations was particularly impressive. The penalty was poor on his part however, as there was no need for him to leave...

Plenty on here were happy for MVE to go for as little as £5m in the Summer and were pissed off we hadn't sold him to strengthen the team elsewhere come the end of the transfer window. I would be surprised if we were able to sell him now if he would go for less than £12m.

Wright was unlucky with the disallowed goal in the 1st half. The offside decision against EMC was 'marginal', and that's only if it was definitely our player that played the ball to him. Need to see it again as at the time I thought it might have been their player that inadvertantly played it to...

Would have liked to have seen that in operation for the Millwall cup game where it was obvious people were buying for the points with no intention of attending, with the additional criteria that any person not collecting tickets doesn't get the points for the game.

Doing the maths, like with Blackburn it looks like they only took an allocation of 1,500.

Grimes is a unique player and I just don't see a similar player out there that we could bring in as cover for him, that would be willing to do so with the prospect of very little playing time.

Strachan did a decent job mostly, but his last year with us was a disaster when he made a lot of poor decisions. He was also very dismissive of criticism from fans, having the attitude that your opinion wasn't worthy unless you'd played the game. Turning on your own fans was a dumb thing to do...

Kitching also unneccesarily hit the ball straight out of play today. At the end of the day they are defenders for a reason, and if they aren't conceding goals we should cut them some slack in respect of misplaced long range passes. It was noticeable that after one such failed pass by Thomas...

We haven't really had a standout goalkeeper of left back in that time which makes this a bit difficult. My team would be: Rushworth 2025/26 Van Ewijk 2023/24 Willis 2016/17 Ostigaard 2020/21 McCallum 2019/20 Jones 2017/18 Enobakhare 2018/19 Hamer 2022/23 Rudoni 2024/25 Gyokores 2021/22 Armstrong...

I thought it was the 2 Tone Collective which included Pauline Black, Ranking Roger and Roddy Radiation.

I was very near it. There were a load of gobby Manc youths in the stand near us who went a bit OTT after the late winner (unsurprisingly I guess). Being near the end of the game the Police had disappeared to control outside, leaving only a few stewards, who were quickly overwhelmed by our mob...

I guess there's a fair few bedwetting posts on this and other threads from the Summer that will be looking rather silly right now 😉

I clearly remember Sheff U being pricks about our protests but when did Wednesday do likewise?

Turning back inside also leaves space for MVE to overlap. I've noticed a few people on here having a bit of a downer on Sakamoto recently which I don't really get.

I really wish people didn't post stuff like this. It's almost inviting Karma to do it's worst. Personally I think there is next to no chance of us going unbeaten for a whole season. The most dominant season I've seen us was in our League 1 season, but we still lost games even if they were...
