Are teams getting more points these days? I am not just talking about the Championship. I am sure 90 points used to feel like a pretty special achievement 20-30 years back, but seems to almost happen as standard nowadays (I may also just be misremembering, which I do a lot of) League 1 this year cou...

Germany in 96/97, where 13 of the 15 clubs not relegated qualified for Europe(but Monchengladbach rejected the chance to play in the Intertoto cup so only 12 actually took part)

If anyone is interested then its well worth listening back to the podcast from yesterday called Outspoken With White & Jordan which is just a kind of highlights thing of their daily talksport show. They had an FFP specialist on talking about Chelsea. He explained this whole thing around them sel...

PL top goalscorer. Cole has an extra game than the rest left to play too Screenshot from 2024-04-16 09-43-00.png 9 of Palmers goals are penalties. Look at Watkins, no penalties and more assists. Villa would struggle without him. If Arsenal had him they would be out of sight now. Heard some stats th...

After a really poor season struggling in the bottom half, Doncaster have won 10 of the last 12 (including 8 straight wins) and have a great chance of finishing in the play offs!

We are 11 days away from possibly being able to say Spurs have won just 10 league games in the past half a year

Has Ange Postecoglu done a good job?

certainly hasn't done a bad job, but I can't help wonder if the man of the people persona and the early season good run of form has convinced people he is doing a much better job than he really is.

Porto have slipped up so much recently that it could be one of those seasons where Braga split 'the big 3' in Portugal.

Final day of the season is Braga vs Porto

2nd Tier Tuesday: The Roberts/Fabregas dream at FC Como continues in Serie B. 3 point gap between them and 3rd place with 5 games to play FC St Pauli slipping up in the German 2nd tier again but they still have a 5 point gap back to 3rd place and only 5 games to play Auxerre looking good for promoti...

Leganes and Espanyol dropping points is letting in a whole load of teams for possible automatic promotion. 7 games to go and I reckon down to 10th will still be thinking they can get automatic promotion. Got to be some tasty games to come between those teams! Screenshot from 2024-04-16 08-23-46.png

can't remember the last time a young player just seemed to come from nowhere to doing what Palmer is doing. He seems to have gone from being just another youngster at City who had a handful of appearances and didn't look good enough for that level, to a few months later being one of the best players...

Disappointed with Aldershot's recent collapse. Would have very much been cheering them on in the play offs

Bologna's Lewis Ferguson tore his ACL at the weekend

Shame. Been rumours for a while of big clubs in for him this summer

In case you wondered, the massive advertising boards becoming more and more common in PL grounds (as well as others in Europe) are for them to show virtual advertising, i.e the advert you are seeing on your tellybox in England is different to the adverts they are seeing on tellyboxes in China etc ht...

Roma'a Evan Ndicka goes down with chest pains and is taken to hospital. Game suspended.

Leverkusen make it 5, fans on the pitch

Leverkusen can be champions today

Como winning again. After a wobble they look back on track in 2nd place. 5 games to go. Surely Bari can't go back down to the 3rd tier again?! Out of all leagues, I think the Italian one is the most confusing They have a mental play off system and clubs endlessly going from serie a to d for financi...
