Another cracking opener. Games are coming thick and fast now. Some rumours doing the rounds that we have some additional injuries or illnesses and ...
I was wrong but in a different way. It was 10 points from 5 games; we are on 24 points from 16 games. I kept thinking something didn't look right. Any...
Interesting these days to divide up the season with international breaks. In those terms we have had three groups of games adding up to 16 in total. ...
The Everton story seems legitimate but I don't think we have anything to worry about when it comes to FFP. Firstly the EFL runs its FFP equivalent and...
Just checked. I have bookmarked the revised list. link should be I'm safe until the Ipswich game.
That seems like a very good option. Looks like a bit of a distressed sale by Leeds. They don't see him ever breaking through and need to clear the dec...
Still buzzing after that. We were the ones who ended up in Wonderland. We won that match the same way we have lost matches in the past. It was pret...
Mogga is definitely one of those managers who likes to be flexible and adapt to the opposition. Fine when it works but if it stops working it can be r...
Well here's a funny thing. Win tomorrow and after 10 games we'll be ahead of where we were last season with 11 points from 10 games versus 10 points f...
A little thing. Listening to Coburn's interview he mentions that he works on that pass Crooks' delivered to him for the goal "every day in training." ...
@pedro Seems a reasonable assumption. To an extent, Carrick got unlucky. As well as losing the loanees, two of his most senior pros, Howson and ...
@k-p-in-spain Exactly. Sunderland, knocked out in the play-off semi-finals. Lost their totemic goal scorer, all their key loan players. Recruited ch...
Error is too strong. Poor, sure. I think he may have been caught out a little and slow to react. I get the impression the whole Bradford team were may...
@exmil he's had 2 bookings in the cup which are counted separately.
Gazette has an update about injuries. RVDB out, Crooks suspended. Smith maybe still recovering Bangura out. Forss out. Greenwood cup-tied We are ...
@powmillnaemore Crooks is a big unit but not well-balanced which makes him easy to knock off the ball. I think that's what make so clumsy and why h...
That's a relief. Two games unbeaten. Probably should have won 3-1 just like the old days. Listening then watching the highlights, it's notable that ...
Rumours of an ... odd .. team selection.
@original-fat-bob Agreed. I am really enjoying all the different takes by thread openers. A lot more than I am enjoying the football. I'll get a ...
Back late yesterday so not much to add other than to add my sorrow at the news about Ken. As someone who works in palliative care, I am well aware tha...
This does feel that it could define Carrick's tenure. Win or draw and we can argue for sticking with the plan. Lose and it's hard to see where Carrick...
Feeling a certain amount of dread about this. On one hand, it's way too early in the season to be making judgements on the other hand we haven't won a...
I saw an interesting thing. During pre-season, Carrick talked about how we were looking at Brighton's tactics. Looks like we spent the pre-season tryi...
I don't see this as likely before Easter. Gibson's sackings have certain patterns. When he thinks the current manager is failing his goals and he ...
Glad I missed that. This is Houston we have a problem territory. Seriously have no idea what we do about this. We can't keep sacking managers so we ...
As they say, the proof of the pudding is in the eating. It does feel like we have come up with a plan and stuck to it. Now it comes down to how good t...
Lot going on. It would be a shame to miss out on Cannon. This time last year, people would have been wary of spending £7m on Archer on the back of a h...
That felt a bit like last season: both the bad and some of the good. Start slow, go behind, things look shaky. Clear our heads, equalise before half...
According to the Gazette, Hayden is not someone we've been interested in. Isaac Hayden, who, despite being offered to Boro, is not believed to be ...
