Re: Points Deduction AGAIN

I’m guessing there’s something we’ve misunderstood in the plan and expected to be allowed when in actual fact it wasn’t. I found it worryingly naive when they expected the EFL to allow us to sign Sarr before Puscas went out on loan on the promise of that happening in the future so I’ve little faith ...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Kidderminster Harriers (a)

One to add to 'they played for both clubs' is Colin Gordon. In fact, after ending his playing career he became the chairman and owner of Kidderminster Harriers and acted as caretaker manager on a few occasions. He has no current involvement though having now sold the club.

Re: Olise being sold for £8m?

The article in the Mail does appear to be scaremongering (shock. horror) and as the previous poster says it's purely an administrative issue at this stage. The football finance expert Kieran Maguire has tweeted ''Issue arises because under Covid-19 emergency legislation clubs have an extra three mon...

Re: Coronavirus outbreak

There is such a panic in some quarters that, despite the comments made by the medical experts, I think the Government will come under severe pressure to take action on mass gatherings and will do so fairly soon, initially probably allowing football to continue behind closed doors. I fear this could ...

Re: BFTG Sheff U FB

The comment about the modern player not being two footed is very true.When I first started watching football,all the top footballers use to comment about working on their weaker foot.I seem to recall that our 2005 side only had one player who was genuinely two footed,and that was Doyle.Even at the ...

Re: Predict the final 2019/20 Championship table

I have it that West Brom and Leeds just about make it with Forest, Brentford, Bristol City and Fulham in the play off places.

Reading 15th on 59. I wasn't particularly generous to us on some of our home games as I fear some 'winnable' matches could end up disappointingly.

Re: Rumour - Chris Martin

Too many other clubs interested in him for us to secure him in our current position I fear and the same goes for any other proven striker.

I hope I'm wrong but fear we will end up with an inexperienced lad on loan from a Premier League club.

Re: Who could replace Stam?

The list of good available managers is quite a good read. Most will not come but could also dream. There must be a few in here that can do a job: Luis Enrique Peter Bosz Tomas Tuchel Slaven Bilic Frank De Boer Ronald Koeman Laurent Blanc Paul Clement Alan Curbishley Mark Warburton Paulo di Canio Ol...
