I think the way a manager's spell with a club ends always looms large over their legacy, and the end with Strachan was an especially grim time for the club overall. I think he was very much a man of a previous era, and was in charge during a time when other teams were professionalising and...

It never happens for people like us

Birmingham was just hype IMO. But yes, the collapse of Sheffield United has only opened the door wider for us. Totally unprecedented opportunity for a non-parachute payment team to win the league, amazing that it looks like it could be us.

So in terms of the pre-season favourites for the title: Leicester - 8 points behind us, possible points deduction on the way Ipswich - 12 points behind us Southampton - 13 points We are 5 points clear in the automatic spots, and we beat the team in third 4-0 away from home. The underlying...

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c629zvnd5lno Part of the problem with having such a deeply unpopular government is that you lose the ability to do anything that requires basic co-operation or buy-in from the general public.

You were one “burden on this team” away from an SBT bingo

I think Lampard in his time here has generally started EMC whenever he has the opportunity. Given that EMC usually has to come off at some point in any given game, I would expect it to be him and BTA on either flank, with Sakamoto coming on for cameos. Which, let’s be honest, sounds fucking...

Not that I agree with every word of it, but think Jonathan Liew’s column on the Villa game is the best piece I’ve seen on the matter so far https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/oct/21/standing-with-maccabis-football-hooligans-against-local-police-is-that-what-patriotism-looks-like-now

It’s undoubtedly our worst kit of all time, but that’s ok.

I’d be a bit worried about Leeds and Burnley’s games in hand there

It really is the best league in the world, and it is kind of a shame that we’re not going to be playing in it for much longer.

I think expectations for him coming in were way too high from the start, probably because it’d been a while since we signed a new LB. As a cheap signing from a lower tier foreign club, I don’t think we can be too upset with the return we’ve had so far.

Your determination to thump yourself in the face over Ellis Simms, even after he’s had a good game, is becoming quite sad.

Bidwell, Brau, Wilson, Bassette….serious questions need to be asked imo, Lampard is on thin ice

When you absolutely, positively have to finish a chance from two yards out, accept no substitutes. Can’t remember a fringe player hitting a run of form like this, I’m absolutely delighted for him. He oozes charisma as well.

He's obviously having a good season. Pretty much everyone in our first XI is!

I swear to god if we get promoted in this abomination of a kit then King must resign
