Two cracking away days to start the New Year though! If we go up this season, the memories we’ll all make is priceless. The 4-2 v Boro was probably the best away game since Wolves in the FA Cup! I’ve had my sanity questioned for Doing Boro, Ipswich and PNE in consecutive away games!

The BoE is warning against hedge funds snapping up UK debt… what could possibly go wrong?

I agree that should, but looking at most historical season, there’s a clear Top 3 followed by another 2-3 teams that are separate by 1-3 points. Why not guarantee Top 3 for UCL and if the FA Cup is won by an automatic qualifier, it roles to 4th place. If the winner is outside that, they get the...

I'll be honest, I'm not 100% sure. AI slop seems to indicate 'yes' but I'd take that with a pinch of salt. A big issue with the Prem is that it's a league of 'have and have nots', if you not fighting for survival or the Top 8, you're bobbing along really. The big incentive of a UCL place for...

Exactly, there's only been a few instances in recent years where a non-top 4 team have won it: Palace - 24/25 Leicester - 20/21 - this would've been a UCL shootout Arsenal - 19/20 Chelsea 17/18 Winner gets UCL, runner up get Europa league if applicable. Even the winners are generally 5-8th if...

Every interview he has, he always comes across well. Even when it comes to defending unpopular decisions like ticket prices or sacking Robins. The club appears to be in safe hands and making sound decisions. Hopefully we have a go in the Jan transfer market to secure promotion and hopefully...

It's the same the EFL Cup too, fans are voting with their feet and treating these games as second class because in truth, they are. If they scrapped the EFL Cup next season, fans won't shed a tear. Winning the FA Cup in 23/24 would've been legendary and better than winning promotion that season...

Games leading up to Xmas tend to be a struggle for a lot of people. All in, this trip will cost me £60 already which, with Xmas in mind, could be several £10-20 cards for family/friends. This should sell out but can certainly see it going to general sale too and for everyone moaning about a...

There was an element of people choosing to overlook some of the intangible things that our strikers did. For example, one of the reasons Rudoni scored so headers is because our strikers were really good at committing defenders which created space for players like Rudoni (and now) Eccles to...

That's exactly the point. We'd all recognise that Rudoni has had injury issues and that all feeds into his form. As a whole, football fans are the least generous to strikers. Thinking ahead to a full strength team, I'm not sure how you fit everyone in because Rudoni is a bang on starter for me...

Simms just had a bad season last year where he massively underperformed his xG. That's something he clearly needed to take accountability for and needed to improve on to continue his career with us. Even though he was "abject", he probably still should've scored 10+ goals so only a small uptick...

Sign the best players available, competition for players is so fierce in the Prem. Personally, I couldn’t see us signing anyone for more than £20m. Presuming we got there!

Depends on how the Jan window goes. If the squad is still thin, sod the FA Cup off.

Say what you like about Farage, he’s been a serious politician for 10+ years and whenever he’s on TV on BBC QT or other flagship shows, he has a good grasp of whatever he’s talking about. Polanski literally talks in well rehearsed phrases. Give him his dues, he does have charisma and is...

As long as Lampard is given the resources needed, who we bring in or what terms they arrive on, I’m happy. We cashed in £6.5m for Sheaf, was bidding £10+ million for Hughes supposedly so there ought to be a good pot available for the window.

Simms durability is impressive to be fair, rarely misses a game due to injuries. He’s not as explosive as Wright, EMC or BTA so he’s lower risk for non-contact muscular injuries. His form has come at a great time and he’s got a golden opportunity to make himself undroppable now. He’s not yet...

At 19, the club isn’t looking for a finished article but a player who has good tangible qualities to develop. Hopefully he’s a decent player!

Academy is the next big thing the club needs to upgrade! Not being a Cat 1 academy is taking future talent away from our club. Players like Monga should’ve been developed in our academy!

As soon as we get to the Prem, the one thing that’ll definitely be expanded is the hospitality offering. 1 hospitality seat sold is worth 5+ supporters in terms of spend. The conversation around extending the ground when we don’t sell out is a bit redundant. First thing first, the club needs...

Villa home or away please.
