Re: Rival Watch

Yep, big name signing on top L1 wages. Avoid.

Re: Goalkeepers

You can judge keepers qualitatively on points won and lost and how many matches they define. For Button, I can only think of one positive potentially match defining save. Against Wigan when we were 2-0 up, Abbey gave the ball away for a 1 on 1. Button saved, game could have been very different had h...

Re: Goalkeepers

Good luck shifting him. At best a loan where we pay two thirds of his wages. Maybe. But we are not talking Liam Moore here on 35k pw. Although he might be our top wage earner it is still modest for the league we are in. There might be someone willing to match his wages. It won't be especially modes...

Re: Goalkeepers

Well stocked in the keeper department. Button is 35 and I am reliably informed he is our highest earner. As you stats prove there is very little difference between him and Pereira. So from a purely economic point of view button can go. Imo. Good luck shifting him. At best a loan where we pay two th...

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

I think our objective for next season should be progression and not necessarily promotion (though if we over achieve great). If there are good free transfers available (e.g., like Smith, Knibbs and Wing last year) go for it, but otherwise we should be looking to our academy as there is plenty of tal...

Re: 2023-24 L1 Table Prediction Competition.

We were probably the biggest wildcard in hindsight. Totally unpredictable. Then you always get a couple surprise packages like Stevenage and Orient plus underachievers like Charlton. But the top 2 wasn't very surprising, the playoffs involve all of last year's play off losers and the bottom 4 provid...

Re: Looking forward to the 2024-25 season

I'm only going to make one assumption, and that's that the takeover happens. As if it doesn’t there may not be a next season to predict. Knowing nothing more about players we keep, players we lose, who we may sign etc., I think top half is a reasonable starting expectation for next season given what...

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

Down to 7th before tonight’s PL 2 match. 7th is the absolute lowest we can finish, which in itself is a fantastic achievement. Draw at Forest will see us finish 6th, a win 4th and theoretically give us an easier game in the play-off round of 16. I assume, looking at the format, the home side will b...

Re: Rival Watch

Apparently Lyle Taylor gave away a penalty late on Tuesday that meant Cambridge went into the final day at risk of relegation, he hit back at (legit) criticism on social media (not heard any suggestion of racist abuse etc) and then walked out of the club on Wednesday. What a wrong 'un. He was certa...

Re: Weekend Football

Keeping an eye on that Burnley Forest game If Burnley can pick up a couple of points that is gonna be a cracker. I so want Forest to go down. They offer bugger all in the PL. If a team survives with 29/30 points, they should be embarrassed. I would say relegate all 4 of them and give the 3 Champion...

Surprised I haven't seen more piss taking for celebrating like we won the league on Saturday when we finished 17th. Obviously those who have experienced the past few years know exactly why, but still an easy cheap shot to make. It didn’t really have celebration vibes, though, just last-day applause...

Re: Who do we want to play next season?

Brum in L1 would be interesting. Very ambitious, wealthy owners but as we have learnt that's no guarantee of success. But if they may better decisions, they could blow everyone out of the water financially.

Winston Biscuit Leeds losing 2-0 to QPR. That result would send Leicester up and would surely make it unlikely Leeds would go up automatically.

Hopefully

I oxf*rd hate leeds

3-0 now. Ipswich need 5 points from their final 3 to guarantee promotion.
