Re: MATCHWATCH : Blackpool (h)

NathStPaul Why on earth would we play a weakened team? Completely pointless.

Because we're safe and its useful to look forward at next season in terms of who can step up and what we need.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Burton Albion (h)

To GWL’s point; which I believe is broadly correct, think we saw Pauno take this to the extreme. We never seemed to put the ball into the box and the whole pissing about on the edge of the box, Ovie ‘slow the game down’ Ejaria etc seemed to all be an overly negative way of attacking Fwiw I think it...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Burton Albion (h)

#Modern managers dont like crossing because they've data analysed the game to death and concluded that crosses lose possession more than the lead to goals, so they favour keeping the ball and working it closer to goal to create better chances statistically speaking. A cross is often a hopeful lob i...

Brogue holmes best spell for us was when he was filling in a right back


Totally agree. Hope he does well for Luton.

Started last season at CB very well. And his second spell in the side this season.

Re: Rival Watch

The pilot who died, who seems to be not mentioned very often and gets forgotten about, was an innocent party too and had reservations about the condition of the plane being used beforehand. He may have had reservations about the plane but they didn't extend to owning up to not having a licence for ...

Re: FA Cup Changes

I think you are referring to online nobheads though. Can't mix up their views with the majority of fans views. I think that is the majority of fan views. Understanding of football finance and cost of success is miniscule. My view with JM was that he was frustrating but the overall direction of the ...

Re: FA Cup Changes

I am talking about from a fans point of view So am I. There's constant fan pressure to spend more to compete and succeed regardless to cost or consequence. We all saw it under Madejski. Wheres the money gone? He has to invest to succeed. He doesn't wamt to go up because it costs too much. He's sell...

100% this. Unless my club is about to go out of business for financial reasons, I don't care for the finances. it should all be about the experience of being a fan, going to see exciting games of football and in the Cup being able to hope/dream of getting a match against someone we usually wouldn't...

Obviously that wasn't what you said and anyone who believes that expanding international tournaments is for the good of the smaller nations is probably just being deliberately obtuse Quite. This whole thing is a lesson in obtuse from GWL. Shockingly. And it remains total bullshit that binning repla...

What do you mean its not what i said? Its written right there? People are anti football expansion at a world cup. FIFA expands world cups because more games = more money.

Re: FA Cup Changes

as a general point and not a dig at people here, I can't help but think that all areas of football have now become so analysed that even company bottom lines are now debating points for fans and the extra profit they might make becomes a thing to get enthused by. I don't want replays to go because ...

Seriously, who is a fanatical enough fan that they'd willingly corrupt a sport and put their entire job/career at risk to boot?

Sets off at 12.10pm and should take no more than 15 minutes to walk over, just before Kick Off! And nip back to my seat in Y22. I think I'm back...

Re: Weekend Football

I think this is where miking up everyone and playing it would help. If the ref's seen something and is saying down comms to the other officials 'no contact, no contact, no contact' then it's an easy call to check a couple of replays and say 'there was substantial contact'. Then everyone can see and ...

Re: Weekend Football

I will say it again - VAR should only be used for matter of fact things. Ball over the line, challenge awarded inside / outside the box, offside. Those decisions yesterday were all about opinion and pretty much everyone has one. Let's go back to what we know and pretty much has existed before time ...

I think they should sue Forest for defamation. These guys are professionals and it's ridiculous to suggest Attwell deliberately made Forest lose. So your view is that he's not biased, just completely incompetent Yep, and he's still one of the best in the country which is why he's a PL official. We'...
