Sky Sports not even showing the Arsenal game? They seem to have the City game and Liverpool games on TNT have it (TNT Sports 1). Sky have Man City-West Ham (Main Event); Liverpool-Wolves (Premier League) and Chelsea-Bournemouth (Football & Arena). Sky in not believing there's anything to play f...

Composition now settled. The 24 lucky 3rd division teams next season are: ⋅ Barnsley ⋅ Birmingham City ⋅ Blackpool ⋅ Bolton Wanderers ⋅ Bristol Rovers ⋅ Burton Albion ⋅ Cambridge United ⋅ Charlton Athletic ⋅ Cr...

Crawley have returned to the 3rd division for the first time since 2015. Their highest ever league placing was 10th in the 3rd division back in 2013. Time to start a new derby perhaps?

If Arsenal and City both win today, Arsenal will have 89 points without winning the title, the 3rd highest total after Liverpool on 92 in 2022 and 97 in 2019. All 3 behind City, which shows how relentless they are. Man Utd also got 89 in the "Aguerooooo!" season and Spurs got 86 when Chel...

Have watched Jackson Irvine a few times in English football and thought that he could do a good job for us. Had lost track of his whereabouts until catching SSN last night and seeing him celebrating as his club St Pauli had got promotion to the Bundesliga. Our German/English/Irish and latterly very...

Yeah, I’m more bothered about Reading than Ryan Reynolds Agreed. Just need Reading to be consistent and turn up in 46 league games and there should be a decent reward. Hopefully Brum will start the season well, which should mean Eustace will be sacked by the end of October, leaving the way open for...

Its good there's another decent side in the league which will hopefully stop Hollywood FC going up. And stop Reading FC too. Really doesn't help us having Bolton in L1 next year. Yeah, I’m more bothered about Reading than Ryan Reynolds Agreed. Just need Reading to be consistent and turn up in 46 le...

genome No shots on target in a playoff final is criminal

Can't recall Reading having a shot on target in their last time in a PO final either.

The last gift of the Dai era. A local rival we spent two decades above of in the football pyramid getting promoted to the division above us. Still time for a McAteer response. Be :lol: if Bolton do another 94/95 recovery. From Reading's perspective both teams are inconsistent garbage so, for next s...

FIFA now trialling a new approach where each team gets 2 VAR challenges and there is no VAR involvement until one of the teams uses a VAR challenge :| So one team will use a challenge as quickly as possible so VAR starts getting involved asap and presumably saves them having to use the second chall...

Winston Biscuit Norwich give Wagner the boot

Presumably they believe they ‘deserve’ to be in the PL

Probably more to do with his "Stam approach" to a play off plus Norwich have never looked all that good this season, they're poor defensively and didn't play to their strengths often enough.

Presume Gloucester will be the name to beat in the SLPS.

Nice to see an increase in Cornish sides in the SLS division.

got to ask, Vic: Liverpool or RFC? It is a long story that I took the trouble to post once on here before. Because the two clubs were always in different divisions any question of split loyalty never arose but on the night of March 11th 1970 I had travelled down to Southampton for a job interview ,...

Like many, not a fan of Leeds but actually glad they’ve trounced Norwich. The lack of any intent to win the first leg from them was really poor and it’s all they deserve Not the first time the Norwich manager has set up his team like this in a playoff campaign mind. Just a shame the manager he came...

Is there a points sanction for entering administration while in the PL? If so I presume Everton fans will have more "unfairness" to whine about next season. Wasn’t there some rumour that Everton were going to try going into administration now to avoid the points deduction next season beca...

Quite simply, if it's to be used, VAR should only be used to draw the referee's attention to things they haven't seen and NOT get involved with things that they have seen. If a referee wants to see something again then he should be at liberty to ask to do so at the next break in play. Why can't all ...

I like to think you're with Despair on this.

Ian Royal is more popular than either Manchester club.

And Colin has come out of retirement already, to take up an advisory role at Torquay United.
