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

I like to think he left Stevenage by running out the training ground and down the road while having to hoick his trousers up to stop them falling down Bloody hell, you’ve got some imagination with him running anywhere Used to think Steve Bruce had eaten most things, but we haven’t seen him for a wh...

Re: Champions League, Europa League & Europa Conference League 23/24

So Dortmund and PSG will play for the right to lose to whoever wins the Citeh-Real tie tonight in the final. Having watched Man City repeatedly lose to inferior opposition in the Champs League in person in several of the past years CL campaigns, i see plenty of risk posed by Bayern Munich. I still ...

Re: European Leagues Thread 2012/2013

Barcelona fans prepare for their clubs champions league quarter final against PSG by chanting Vinicius muerte (Vinicius die) and throwing stones at their own teams bus, mistaking it for the PSG bus. Rather disturbingly, our local news reporters were almost laughing at this. I appreciate that anyone...

Re: Weekend Football

Even with Everton’s abject defending Palmer is different class If he’s not in the England squad Southgate will have lost the plot (notwithstanding he has some very serious competition for a place … Foden, Saka, Bellingham) He surely will be, though I expect Saka, Bellingham and Foden will be ahead ...

Re: Rival Watch

Silver Fox Who would support Bolton? That's madness!!!

Anyway, I'm gleaning from the posts so far that all the other 23 teams in the division will be our rivals next year?

Born after 1995 is my guess

Re: Rival Watch

I think Oxford will go up this year. They've clicked. And I'm frankly very happy that we're not playing them now. Though we have got better too... even so, they seem significantly better than they were earlier in the season. I never want them in a higher division than us. This season is our low poi...

Re: Weekend Football

BRO_BOT I know that Man City are a steamroller come the end of the season but I'm minded of the 2012/13 season where City and Utd traded 5-point differences. The title was decided on the last day by a single-goal

I think City are a different machine to that now

Also, Kai Havertz played for Arsenal yesterday And once again was seriously lucky not to have been sent off McGinn did him a right favour when Havertz pulled him back right in front of the referee, but by McGinn playing on Havertz got away with what would certainly have been a second yellow It’s no...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Barnsley (a)

Only if we make a late payment for something. There's basically max one bill left to pay before the end of the season and the prospective owners have put money into the club secured against Bearwood to pay the bills. Ah OK thank Ian. I must've missed that. Doesn't make sense to me that someone is p...
