Re: Weekend Football

Wonder how much belly aching there will be from the Brum support. Can't possibly be their fault for being cr@p and having owners that made another cr@p managerial c0ck up could it?

Re: Who do we want to play next season?

Can’t believe it’s 30 years since they were in the third tier. They have been fighting relegation for so long, I actually regard the third as their natural home. Birmingham have only had 2 previous spells in the third tier, at the end of the 80s and into the mid 1990s. They were last relegated to w...

Re: The non snowball stat thread

Wolves are the only team in England with a complete set of domestic honours: Div 1-4 champions, FA Cup winners, League Cup winners, Football League Trophy winners. You say a full set, but have they won the Isthmian League? [Joking aside, they don't have a Simod Cup in there.] One in the eye for tho...

Re: The Academy/Development squads watch thread 2015//16

Royals and Racers 2-0 74 mins Akande


What's the opinion on Akande, he seems to be one player that never gets anywhere near the first team yet the club could do with options in that area.

Re: Ups & Downs 23/24

Harsh introducing to English football for Birmingham City's owners, but that Eustace decision was utterly moronic. Will be interesting to see if they learn or if it's another hopelessly incompetent owner with money to burn. They've been promising to deliver relegation for 5/6 years and now they've ...

Re: Ups & Downs 23/24

The Old Firm don't play each other in the league any more times than they used to before the split was introduced. It does mean that pretty much every game from now on matters, whether it's for the title, European qualification or relegation so I'd say it's a decent enough innovation in what is oth...

Re: VAR

It's ludicrous. This is meant to be a tool to resolve contentious moments and areas of "unsurety". I don't know what PGMOL has been telling its officials but to me it seems they're being told to not referee or make decisions or if they're not told that they seem to let VAR decide everythin...

Royals and Racers SB group owners of Sandhurst and Bracknell have issued a statement confirming that agreement has been reached for new owners taking over.




Is there any more on this as yet, is it known who the new owners will be?

Re: Berks and Bucks Senior cup 2023/24

Don’t think the change has anything to do with PL 2 play-offs. Firstly the Senior cup is a midweek competition and the final was always going to be midweek. The PL 2 play-off matches can be played on a Friday or Saturday which leaves Tuesday 14th as a date the final could have been played. I do kno...

Re: Is there a better front 6 in world football

Brogue


Trouble is most other half decent top international sides have at least a half decent back 5 and always seem to stifle anything the "front 6" can think up. More than likely another tournament defeat on penalties on the way.

Re: Football Rel8d Gripes

if Reading had put 8 past Derby we would have stayed up. We had 3 on the board very quickly. We didnt push on hard enough. We were still only 1 nil up at the hour mark. I've completely made up a memory then. Crazy. Fulham were also drawing until the 80th minute or something. I don't blame Danny Mur...

Re: Football Rel8d Gripes

Pundits trying to be polite and professional about teams who are as good as relegated due to GD, by pretending they are almost down but have an outside chance of staying up. Huddersfield need a 15 goal swing in order to stay up. Just say they are down ffs! if Reading had put 8 past Derby we would h...

Re: Ups & Downs 23/24

I've only just noticed this - is it the first time the SPL has split into two halves for the final five games of the season? Also - with fixtures for this 'second phase' not set until the top and bottom six were decided, it seems a little silly of the SPL not to have set Celtic v Rangers for the fi...
