I like brandy butter on my Christmas Pudding. 😊

Thank you for cheering me up 👍 😊

Biannual. ☹️

The latest betting odds, after our defeat on Saturday, have us finishing 9th which is two places lower than at the start of the season. I reckon this is about right. If it turns out this way it is a little disappointing but hardly disastrous.

True but it was nowhere approaching the current scale with £zillions being injected by oil-rich states.

I’m sorry to see how his career has taken a downwards turn. I always thought League 1 was about his level.

The end of fair competition in football at the highest level: I have been opposed to the creation of a European super league but I’m now starting to think it might be a good idea. Let the super-wealthy clubs, usually owned by oil-rich states and overseas investment funds, have their own...

I have been in the same position as you before. I think it’s because, after losing a fair amount, the body goes into starvation mode and adapts to the ingestion of fewer calories. I have a theory - for which I’m not aware of any scientific basis - that, after losing two or three stones, it...

Sakamoto was an excellent player up until his serious injury last season. It looks as if he hasn’t recovered mentally from that. I don’t know if he will ever get his confidence back but I sincerely hope that he does. His latest setback won’t have helped. It will be a crying shame if he never...

It could be worth a try if the reason for his disinterest is that he thinks he should be playing CF. I don’t think he should feel that though because his performances and goal stats improved considerably when MR moved him to the left. I have had another thought. There seems be a growing...

The Sue Gray fiasco just about cements this government’s place in history as having made the most shambolic start by a new government ever. Oh well, as someone once said “Things can only get better”. I’m not optimistic though, at least while Starmer is in charge. As we all suspected, he is a...

Clearly our results have been poor but MR has consistently been a great manager over the years that he has been with us. I refuse to believe that he has suddenly become a bad manager overnight. If we release him the chances are that his replacement will either be a rookie, which could work but...

It was looking inevitable.

Good save by Wilson 👍

Goooooooooooaaaaaaal! 😊

I think Wilson is a decent keeper. To be honest, come the end of the season I would rather sell Collins and keep him as our number 2. I’m sure that Dovin will come good as he gets more experience.

I don't think any of them survived the experience!

It’s certainly possible if we can regularly put in the sort of performance we did against Blackburn on Tuesday. It won’t be easy though. To put it into context 1.74 points over a whole season would have meant that we finished fifth last season. I reckon that there are at least eight teams...

Absolutely. I was there on that glorious evening 👍 I never mention the away leg though 😆

That looks about right to me. I think we can take it as read that we will lose to Preston, given that when we last beat them God was still a young child.
