    Is Greggs MIA?

    The fact that you aren't offended by it, doesn't mean that is not offensive language. The people more likely to be offended are those who have disability or whose family and friends might have disability. I don't know you or your situation of course but to imply that this word (and those like...

    Cup draw

    Such a great draw for us. Lots of attention and should be an easy result. Surely they can’t do it again? Has a sixth tier team ever reached the quarterfinals? I’m immediately worried about the replay now, suddenly a lot more riding on it.

    Is Greggs MIA?

    I think defending racism on the grounds of a mental health issue is problematic too. I don’t think mental health problems make a person racist. I have my share and this did not happen to me. That post by Greggs should be condemned. It was vile. Reading the comments below expose that hardly...

    Is Greggs MIA?

    Please don’t get me wrong, I find most of what that guy says on here to be horrible bullying. I think Greggs also. There are a few that stand out as the ones who just put people down and create fights out of nothing. You are always going to get these people in any group. It’s a shame but social...

    Is Greggs MIA?

    I think that jokes about poverty and loneliness are pretty poor taste too. I agree that those apparently defending racism or at least someone’s right be racist are wrong. This kind of ‘joke’ however undermines the argument. Also, twice recently I’ve seen the word ‘Mong’ and ´mongaloid’ used on...

    Only when they've played us. Thought they were all pretty good, Leicester's implosion aside but they only had 10 men.

    This is what I've been thinking. Realistically we have a slim chance of promotion with the strength of the 4 teams at the top. I don't think it's impossible but I'm not sure that 1 or 2 more games in the cup will derail our push for playoffs. I think that geberally speaking a good cup run is...

    Transfer targets

    I would say we have more than 4, I think O'Hare and Allen could play further up, add Palmer, Godden, Wright, Simms, Sakamoto, Tavares. I woudn't complain if we got more, just not too bothered right now

    Transfer targets

    People keep saying we need to sign a winger to give Saka a rest. I don't disagree that he might need a rest as he has played a lot and looked tired on Saturday, but do clubs sign a new player so one can have a rest? Seems drastic. I would have thought we have plenty of cover up front. I'm not...

    I agree but thought I’d extend a welcome to the troll, if it is one.

    Get the full strength team out there and try to win it in the first 60 mins then rest players. A cup run would be fantastic. Win this and get an easy home draw in the next roud and we'll be on our way. We have seen that they aren't great and I suspect they will weaken so we have a great...

    I’ve been having the same feeling that we’ll balls-up today but maybe that’s just that not allowing myself to believe that we really are good and we’re capable of a very good run of form

    Transfer targets

    I look on here a lot, more of a lurker with occasional comments here and there. This thread has been amazing, so many ups and downs. So many people abusing others and then there was the strange phase where everyone started being nice a couple of nights ago. All we have yielded so far is an...

    Our Run In

    At the end of last season when we didn't make it, I remember everyone going on about how much more difficult it would be this year with the big teams coming down. I guess that is being born out but it seems that quite a few of the play-off hopefuls have faltered as we did at the beginning of the...

    Callum contract offer

    Whilst I accept he is leaving, I am really gutted. He is a proper hero and has been such a huge part of the revival. I don't blame him for taking the money and bigger club.

    We really should have won that last game, Dewsbury-Hall was excellent in the end. I think we have a very good chance of at least getting a draw in this one. They are very good and they do keep winning but our form is excellent. We have been so good in so many recent games with the only slip-up...
