@selwynoz On the subject of how we counter the Leicester threat, does anyone think we could play Engel in a more advanced left-wing position, with ...
We’ve had many brilliant starters on here over the years from Werder, OFB and Andy, and this season from a wider field of contributors, but yours was ...
@lenmasterman Thank you for two excellent match reports, Len. It’s always good to get your perspective, and especially from someone who (I assume) ...
That was a terrific starter, Powmill, very informative and enjoyable. Thank you. Like you, I’ve always had a soft spot for Plymouth, again because ...
@ofb Unfortunately I am one of those guys who when the highs are high it’s great and when the lows are lows it’s disastrous. OFB Me too, mate! ...
I’m not convinced by views that Howson and Barlaser played quite well. I agree that Barlaser’s passing was usually accurate, but Howson gave the ball ...
@peter-surtees Very interesting post, Peter. I hadn’t noticed it creeping up on me, but you’re dead right: I’m quite relaxed now and no longer worr...
@malcolm Thanks for posting that article on Carrick and player development. It is one of the best things I’ve read from any manager anywhere. Carri...
Thank you, Andy, for another brilliant starter. I really appreciated your analysis of Stoke’s signings and their scoring record. i agree that this ...
So, Hackney is suspended for Saturday, just to add to our list of absentees. MC has blamed the ref, who apparently booked him for taking too long to l...
Magnificent win, if a trifle nervy at times, especially when we sloppily kept giving the ball away. I’m looking at you, Jonny Howson! But we were imme...
Thanks Andy. I’ll do the Sunland game on 3 Feb, if that’s ok with you?
Andy That gives you a further 7 to do, which seems a lot. I’d be happy to take one off you, provided there’s a bit of a gap between the ones I’m dow...
Thanks for another excellent starter, OFB, produced at speed and under pressure! i think this will be a tough game tonight. I’ll settle for a point...
@powmillnaemore And well done to you! 42 miles in 24 hours - now that’s something I’ve never done and could never have done!
@werdermouth Two huge thankyous to you, and as many 👍👍👍as you wish! Firstly, the new format of the front page of the blog is simply stunning. Ha...
Dormo @powmillnaemore - OUTSTANDING! If I could give it three thumbs up, I would. So, for your starter and for Powmill, here they are, three each!...
Excellent, Dormo. I really enjoyed that. Thank you so much! As someone who regularly walks up mountains (though with increasing difficulty these day...
@pedro As my brother often says when I show him the league table or express my optimism/ pessimism, ‘You win nowt in October (January/March), mate!...
@powmillnaemore Many thanks for all your excellent work on this. It’s fascinating.
I’ve just caught up with the posts from the last few days and have really enjoyed reading everything, in particular two outstanding posts from Len and...
I think I’m cracking up. Since 2.30 pm, I’ve been smiling, laughing maniacally and doing virtual jigs around the living room, and I can’t seem to stop...
@werdermouth Team news. Eeeeek! 🫣🫣🫣🤞🤞🤞
The news about Lewis O’Brien is terrible. We probably hadn’t seen the best of him yet, despite a couple of good performances at left back. To lose him...
@martin-bellamy What a fabulous blog you’ve produced, Martin. I’m very impressed (and jealous!)
Thanks for a terrific, very enjoyable opener, Deleriad. Great work! I would be more than happy with a point on Saturday against the Deckchairs. It’...
Some very good posts, friends, and your analysis of the game generally has been spot-on. I particularly enjoyed Boro’s second half performance, Lat...
@deleriad That was an excellent post. I certainly hadn’t realised that 3 points from this game would leave us better off than at the same stage und...
I enjoyed the game. It was the first time I’d been to Valley Parade, which has 3 immense and impressive stands but also a couple of tinpot affairs tha...
