Re: LOLiverpooLOL - Next Season

With Andy Robertson getting injured again on international duty it does feel that Liverpool have done rather well this season to be where they are at this stage. The following have all been out for at least a month at various stages:- Alisson Alexander-Arnold Matip Konate Robertson Jones Thiago Szob...

Re: Weekend Football

An interesting article. 'Premier League teams are on pace to score about 200 extra goals this season, compared to the average of the previous 15 seasons' https://www.espn.com/soccer/insider/story/_/id/39761156/why-premier-league-pace-break-goals-scored-record Quite an interesting read but isn't it ...

Re: Ups & Downs 23/24

Chesterfield, effectively promoted back to the EFL anyway due to goal diff, but 1 point tonight against Halifax would seal it Would be quite an early promotion for the NL? Interesting* if you look at the play-off sides - with the exception of Barnet (and Aldershot if you see them as the same club) ...

Re: Embargos, HMRC Payment defaults, non payment of wages, the usual under Dai Wrongge

I don’t know if this has been posted already elsewhere as I am no longer a regular contributor and don’t follow that much of what is posted on here. Supposedly the club ( or whoever is actually running things now ) has approached Crystal Palace to request a cash return for rescinding a sell-on benef...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Derby County (h)

In Ian's absence I will make a rare substitute appearance. A strange but entertaining game where I don't remember either keeper making a save which is rare in any game of football. Having read a report of Derby's Saturday game away at Lincoln (0-0) I was quite optimistic about our chances as apparen...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Brighton & Hove Albion U21 (a)

I am no longer a regular poster nor intend to be (I know,who cares apart from me?) but after last night I am so annoyed that I need to get it out of my system. Before the Eastleigh game there was some discussion over whether we should try to stay in the competition. IIRC it was around 50/50 but I wa...

Re: Selles out

I think Dai's fortune was all luck and no skill Not only Dai. Very often those that make millions or billions hit on one good idea at the right time. See also, Madejski and Sugar (Autotrader and Amstrad) who some feel were not the great businessmen they were made out to be but fortunate and success...

Re: The Manager Sack Race/Merry-go-Round

Rotherham part company with Matty Taylor. Must be nice to have a club who can see when something isn't working and can actually do something about it. One of the hardest jobs in football with miniscule amounts of transfer funds ever available. Their natural level is league 1 but they keep on gettin...

What a fabulous goal by Sarabia for Wolves v Spurs-great skill and an early contender for goal of the season IMHO.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Shrewsbury Town (a)

The trouble is those wins came some time ago and we are just spiralling uncontrollably towards relegation losing to the worst teams-we need control, we need a manager.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Shrewsbury Town (a)

What I got from the Hutch interview is that he feels the younger players keep on repeating errors even when told about them and there comes a time with all players where you have to question not just their footballing ability but also whether they do what they are told. Mind you, Hutch and the senio...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Shrewsbury Town (a)

We are going down absolutely nothing is gonna save us now. A change of owner and manager will not come quick enough. The players have to revolt and get this idiot out or we are doomed if he doesn’t go now. There are fools on here that think we have to wait for a change of owner and then everything ...

So we are now 10 points from safety. Does Selles know that it is not compulsory to make substitutions and yet every week he makes 5.?

At 17 years old Endrick, who will join Real Madrid from Palmeiras after his 18th birthday, is the youngest player to be called up for Brazil's senior team since Ronaldo in 1993. Hendrick? ! Mad how young players start in the South American leagues. Outrageous talent. Endrick is 17 years and 3 month...

Interesting article in the Mail on line about Dai yesterday. Whilst running R.F.C. ‘Into the ground’ he has added a 9 bathroomed pad with pool close to Buckingham Palace to his billionaire portfolio. If accurate there seems to be no shortage of readies. Supposedly cost around £100 million. Presumab...

Has there ever been a time where the ref has gone to the monitor and not overturned the original decision?

Re: Bowen speaks

The longer it goes on, the more likely it is. I still believe that once a takeover is done, we will see a massive improvement on the field. We will probably change manager but even then, I think it will just breed a more positive atmosphere around the club. We aren't actually *that* far behind. Obv...
