a couple of stats that I've been looking into;

we've been caught off side 45 times this season. only Mansfield have been caught off side fewer times on 38. Now whilst this isn't a table we want to be top of, it does indicate that we don't get into many attacking situations. and certainly shows we ...

I made the late decision to go up last night. 310 hardy souls according to the announcer.

Agree with much of what has been written:
- We should have taken at least one of the goal mouth scrambles, not sure how we didn't - especially the first one.
- I didn't think the pitch was too bad in ...

Have made a late decision to go to the game tonight. Phoned the ticket office this morning, got the answer phone message of not being able to buy tickets via the phone any more (was not aware of this), so went to book tickets through the website, and only had the "collect from stadium" option ...

Happy to see the chewing gum kid shown the door.

Why?
Hasn't he had to put up with a horrendous injury list and a captain that doesn't act like a captain?

It probably is a case of wrong man for this club but there is something badly wrong there when managers successful elsewhere (especially ...

Mad end to the game - great stuff.

Great game, two sides just going at it end to end, throwing crosses into the box, not just endless passing across the back 4

Yeah that Blackburn team were pretty good and he was part of a very good midfield unit

Is the Jason Wilcox I keep hearing mention of at United the ex Blackburn player Jason Wilcox?

Ryan Mason sacked by WBA.

Watched the last 30 minutes of the Leicester WBA game last night. Albion dominated it, just couldn't score, and should have won the game. Then Leicester go up the other end in injury time, score a worldy and win it having offered nothing for much of what I watched.

I've come to the conclusion that most football managers are stubborn thick cnuts who can't think for themselves and dogmatically copy the current trends. The ones not like this are the ones who have a chance of actually being good at their jobs.

Brian was there last night from the pictures the ...

First game of the season for, and what a joyous trip down from Brum it was...

Echo most of what's been posted here already.

1. The passing between JP and the two centre backs. Why so much?
1a). Why do we need two centre backs inside our 18 yard box for every goal kick, especially when one of them ...

Maybe one for General Football, but do you think Derby fans have a similar thread on their forum which they're excitedly updating right now?

I would imagine so!

:D

Wolves do look incredibly poor; they have the smell of a team already relegated and frankly, the only reason I can fathom for Rob ...

One from the TNT sports Twitter feed this morning.

For the first time in over two years, Erling Haaland has been flagged offside in a Premier League away match

Fulham 4-5 Man City

Watched the second half. Great fightback from Fulham to get back from 1-5 down. Very unlucky not to nick a draw at the end with the one cleared off the line too

Is this April 1st?
What a fukkin eyesore, Battersea Power Station at least served a purpose

Are Brum moving elsewhere in Birmingham or to create this thing or just redeveloping Standrews?

It's basically the other side of (ie inside) the ring road from where St Andrews is now. Probably ...

At least when they appoint a new manager they can put smoke up the chimneys

Watched the Scotland game from about 75 mins onwards. Fantastic end to the game, very pleased for them. Seemed to be one of those nights where you just have a feeling (as a neutral at least) that something would break for them and they'd do it. Incredible scenes, and some top quality goals too

Silver Fox wrote:8 more teams added in, that's 42, which seems like a lot

42 + 4 x Euro playoffs = 46

Do we know what the permutations are for the last two spaces?

Even given the emotional pull he has for Wolves its an odd move for Edwards, Felt like Middlesbrough was a chance for him to reverse the downward trend his managerial career was taking. He was doing a good job and on track for getting into the playoff which would be seen as a successful season for ...

Spent the first minute or so putting in common names (Smith, Jones etc) and got to almost 100.

Williams would bag you a decent handful as well.

yes, that was one of the more common names.

Funnily enough this ties into a thought I had whilst watching ...

Reading are a has-been club, on the way down. We are on the up even though we lost tonight. Two and a half weeks to get these two, recent, poor results out of our system. Then we go again...not the end of the world. More lessons to be learnt by everyone and we'll come out fighting again. COYB ...
