    I can see Sheffield United getting automatic promotion under Wilder. Next season. From League One. 😆

    He said international, so I assume he means what he said. I’d love him to come back to Warwickshire for a year or two but I rather agree with what @tisza said, although hopefully that will include the Bears in T20.

    It certainly wasn’t a nailed on penalty but I’ve seen those given.

    Wembley again Ole Ole

    I agree. If our best players can avoid serious injury - perhaps missing just a few games at most - then I think we are in with a decent chance of automatic promotion. That said, I have a feeling it’s going to be close. I don't think it will be like last year when Leeds and Burnley ran away...

    Simms made that goal. It’s easy to say that his touch wasn’t good when the chance arose but he was clearly being fouled and we may well have got a penalty if Torp had missed.

    There’s no doubt that having Rudoni out for a few weeks is a blow but Grimes, Eccles and Torp is still a very good midfield trio. Thank goodness that Eccles returned to fitness just in time and is in good form.

    An excellent win today. It was nice to see Eccles having a good game. He will be an important cog in the team if Rudoni is out for a while.

    It would be silly to say this is a must win game but I really hope we do. I want us to put one over Birmingham and I would be very disappointed if, after this match, we have only won two of our first seven games. I truly believe be are better than that.

    Championship thread 25/26!

    I’m pleased that we remain unbeaten and have enjoyed our best start to a season for a few years. It’s good to see us playing attractive football and scoring a few goals. Am I being too optimistic though, when you consider that we are (a) already five points adrift of Middlesbrough and (b) only...

    My predictions were correct. It’s a miracle! My sporting predictions are always wrong 😆

    It was pleasing to see Eccles settling straight back into the team after being out for months. He looks ready to start when called upon. Overall it was a decent point.

    Women's Rugby World Cup 2025

    You may be right but I think Kildunne and Botterman - plus our strength in depth from the bench - will be the difference. I can see it being tight with us then pulling away in the final quarter.

    Women's Rugby World Cup 2025

    I’m looking forward to this afternoon’s match. With Kildunne and Botterman back we should overcome France by at least 15-20 points. The final against Canada should be a cracker but if we play as we can I expect us to raise the trophy.

    Thank you very much indeed for your unpleasant comment but then I suppose smartarses like you think they are always perfect.

    A lucky deflection restores Oxford's lead. 😆

    That's the starting lineup that I would like to see. I think, however, that FL will want to ease Saka back in so I reckon BTA will start on the left.
