    14 win countdown to promotion

    But it's not a point, it's a hypothetical scenario which is irrelevant to the discussion - which was they lack goalscorers. You've now moved the goalposts to a different galaxy by saying 'oh yeah but apart from those two.' Azaz and Armstrong will be playing tomorrow so it's genuinely completely...

    Leicester At It Yet Again!

    Monga's youth deal apparently automatically turns in to a pro deal in July 2026 so Leicester are pretty secure all things considered. He's a chip they categorically won't want to cash in though unless things are looking glummer than they already are.

    If my aunt had balls she'd be my uncle. The same could be said for the vast majority of sides at this level if their best players were out. If we're able to freeze out Azaz and Armstrong then sure, they might struggle to pick up 3 points as much of their attacking threat revolves around them...

    Likely less than us. But it's an irrelevant point that lacks context. They struggled in front of goal in the first block of games because Will Still couldn't get them performing anywhere near to the standard required. Since Tonga Eckert has come in they've scored 22 goals in 8 games. In that...

    I'm not being aggressive it's a genuine question. None of those listed above were first time shots either. You're quite literally just making things up.

    But they don't have a lack of goal scorers. They've scored 17 goals in the past 6 games. In the same period, we've scored 12. In those 6 games alone both Azaz and Armstrong have collectively scored 11. Wright hasn't found the net in 8 games now, BTA is injured, Rudoni is clearly still...

    Leicester At It Yet Again!

    Cashflow is likely a real problem for them. It seems their chairman isn't funding the club anymore it's all coming from a bank out of Australia (Macquarie) leveraged against PL payments and parachute payments. My guess is they're also looking to bring forward transfer instalments to essentially...

    I thought it was also a lack of goalscorers? Make up your mind.

    Except....literally none of those were volleys. Do you genuinely watch games?

    Poor memory then. Saka's goals against Watford and Wrexham this season were both from outside the box, didn't come too far from scoring from outside the box against Bristol on Saturday either. Can't remember last season. Correction yes I do. Vs Derby at home the game when Robins was sacked...

    They have a lack of goal scorers? Despite Armstrong scoring 11 in 16 league games and Azaz who's scored 6 in 7?

    I don't know if there's any accessible stats showing which team has the most shots from outside of the box but we'll be well up there. Sakamoto, Torp and Rudoni are all pretty good from distance. EMC and Grimes aren't shy of an attempt although the ball's trajectory is often nowhere near the goal.

    We're well above every other team for most shots and shots on target. Difficult to say whether we'll win as they're a good side which is threatening on the attack but I can't see us not scoring against Bazunu. He's only kept 2 clean sheets from his 14 apps. Think his save % sits at just...

    Championship thread 25/26!

    The problem with not going up for them is it's a bit of a wasted season if they don't. They've spent a significant amount of money but they haven't actually built anything. Whereas with us we've nurtured and developed our squad for over two years. Most of their summer signings haven't worked or...

    Championship thread 25/26!

    At this stage I can see Birmingham missing out on the play-offs quite easily even if they're still only a short reach from the POs. They've been awfully inconsistent this season so far and I don't see that changing particularly. Even Opta predicts them finishing mid-table. We'll see what...

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    If he's happy on a pay-per-play in Spoons vouchers then we'll throw our hat in the ring.

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    He's definitely fast. Awful technique and has a generally poor understanding of the game and a questionable work rate but he's got pace and power in abundance. Despite most slating him for pretty much everything else - and rightly so - even QPR and Bristol fans do at least attest to that.

    I think 'very strong squad' is a stretch to be honest. Outside of Fatawu and James no one else particularly stands out. Monga and Page are obviously talented young players. The amount they've paid for certain players such as Daka to use an extreme example distorts people's perception of their...

    I wouldn't include Leicester in that list. They're hardly pulling up trees anyway even without the points deduction and given how they're currently being financed, I'm expecting further sales to be made in January, with very little incomings other than a loan or two.

    Don't think AFCON will affect Watford as much as previously thought. Louza has been left out of Morocco's squad.
