You think we see some weakened teams now? Without the prize of European football at the end of it the Prem clubs would be playing their youth reserves.

It’s completely broken. A cup that nobody loves (as soon as you’re out you stop paying attention) but is now skewed so that the clubs who have helped break it have a major advantage. However, even they don’t take it seriously until/unless they get to the semifinals. The biggest pisstake is...

That was the popular explanation during our second championship season.

Wasn’t he supposed to have not passed a medical at Charlton? Apologies if I’m misremembering.

Dovin was excellent, and as I say Latibeaudiere coped well. Bidwell did make one incredible emergency block - which the replay shows he did not handle despite the Bristol player’s protest. MVE was hampered by Sakamota not having space in front of him but did lots of things well in defence. I...

Going against the grain here but I’ve been mystified by the reaction to Latibeaudiere and Binks on Saturday. Latibeaudiere coped q well with an extremely physical centre forward. He made some very good clearances but virtually all of his good work was either physical wrestling with his man 30...

Missing this guy?

Can’t argue w that. In the end I stuck it out simply because I knew it was coming to an end. It wasn’t quite in the category of “Lost” though. I now resent every second of my life spent watching that stupid programme as the big reveal was the answer I had assumed to be the case after watching...

I quite liked The Ones who Live - but anything after the final 3 series of TWD would feel like Citizen Kane. I liked Daryl Dixon BUT it seemed to be a massive rip off of “The Last of Us”; grouchy hero embarks on unlikely journey in order to save special post apocalypse child!!!! Not sure what...

One of the brothers has a Divorce to pay for.

I suspect you’re thinking of this. Sheffield United’s Jay McEveley’s assault on Reuben Lamieras https://www.skysports.com/watch/video/sports/football/10098915/should-mceveley-have-seen-red

Comes around…. Remember when they had a perfectly good equaliser chalked off in a play off semi only to then concede another goal that had not one but two offside offences not given?

Tried the walking football the season before last - it’s really difficult. You have to unlearn most of the stuff that’s been second nature to you over the years. For example you can’t really play the ball into space for a team mate to move into, instead you have to pass it to pretty much where...

Ex-players only please

Want to agree to this, but feels like “Once we settle our back 4” is doing a lot of heavy lifting there

Even with us he had *moments* that looked very classy. Ignoring how quick some of our fans were to write him off it the real problem was that he needed at least one season of development - playing regularly, starting, coming on as sub, but being involved in the team. Had he been from our youth...

Scrub that he won his first game (in the Garage Forecourt Canned Drink cup vs Sunderland). Lost 0-3 to Swansea yesterday.

Mike Marsh leaves job as caretaker manager at Preston after two defeats.

Injury to Torp, injury to Laitbeaudeire. 4 sets of subs.
