    Match Thread Portsmouth FC - Coventry City Match Thread - Tuesday 21st Oct

    Lot of space between the defence/midfield and attack (v similar to first half on Saturday) making it hard for Torp to contribute going forward.

    Bit of a surprise that. But looks a strong 11 and bench.

    Grimes our motm…mops up, calm, considered and always in the right position. BTA is a transformed player…no longer a frustrating figure but an integral team member. Rushworth great as a stopper but kicking yesterday was Wilsonesque. Torp I thought was unfit first half and thought he...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Blackburn Rovers Match Thread - Saturday 18th Oct

    As others have said ‘we got the job done’. Not the best performance; v disjointed first half, front 4 didn’t work as too much space between front players and midfield, passes loose etc. but this is a team that roll its sleeves up and works as a team and together they did what was needed. I bet...

    Andrews and Dasilva

    DaSilva nowhere near the worst Welsh defender so far

    Sheffield Wednesday "on the pitch"

    By advertising their plans is a clever way forward: Highlights the grievance nationally Gets a lot of coverage prior to and during game. I’m sure Sky will be hoping for it to happen Puts pressure on the owner, the whole club, both teams, the stewards and police…and most importantly the efl. Will...

    Chris Davies

    Birmingham v poor. Rushworth had a couple of catches to make, a few touches with his feet…and that was it. Didn’t need to make a meaningful save all game. Norwich ruined the game with their tactics but Birmingham did absolutely nothing all game. If I was one of their fans who paid £45 to watch...

    Leicester Ratings

    Absolutely. Good clean sheet away against a side that will be top 6 at the season end. Yes Leicester had best chance of the game but apart from that only really threatened from long range. All our players contributed and as a unit deserve credit. Grimes especially was calm, controlled and...

    Transfer Rumour Carl Rushworth

    If it’s the one I’m thinking I believe the surface and ball were greasy with the rain and Rushworth got there before the onrushing Norwich player. Yes normally would have expected him to gather safely but conditions probably caused ball to squirm away.

    Timewasting

    I disagree. Yes 30mins would be played but players would still go down so their team could regroup etc. so still advantage the team whose player is deliberately stopping play. I would prefer something along the lines of any player on the floor and stopping/delaying the game has to go off pitch...

    What are you currently listening to?

    Listening to Supertramp today after sad death of Rick Davies. Listened to a lot way back when.

    England squad

    Apart from Anderson and a bit of urgency from madueke this has been pedestrian. The only surprise is that there hasn’t been a Mexican Wave as yet…it’s that boring

    Match Thread Oxford Utd vs Coventry City Saturday 30th August 3pm KO

    Presumably Lampard thinks he not yet fit enough. If that the case the question should be ‘why is he still in the match day squad’

    Two v average sides. Lots of huff, puff and chasing balls but little quality as yet. Leicester look more solid at the back.
