Malanda had another great game yesterday and I particularly liked the way in which he was prepared to exploit any space in front of him and bring the ...
@pedro Not including McGree aand Lewis O'Brien, who were drafted in there as emergency cover, obviously.
@pedro Left backs? Any advance on eight?
Been pushed for time this week, but just wanted to say thanks to Andy for a typically well organised and beautifully written starter that covered all ...
I must be from Barcelona,KP - I know nothing. I'll take just a tiny crumb of comfort from the fact that after failing to score over the past 7 hours...
An even game with S'ton having the clearest-cut chances. Don't understand why we are giving Azaz the freedom of the park. Close him down, put in a co...
Premier League quality from Brittain in the first half, with Ayling not far behind. The game gets more difficult for us the longer it goes on. Derby's...
Very sad to hear of the passing of Gordon Jones. I have thought of Gordonon frequently over the past couple of seasons when up to seven different p...
Never mind about New Year, Werder, I thought we were back to November 5th with such a dazzling display of verbal pyrotechnics. They were especially im...
Is there no end to the creativity and imagination of this blog's leader writers? The strictly true answer to that question is "yes", since my turn i...

Great analyses on here re- yesterday's game. Special plaudits to Bob for publicly querying the Nypan substitution as it happened rather than after the...
It won't happen. It probably shouldn't happen. And I don't think it will happen. But there is a case for dropping Tommy Conway to the bench for this...
Excellent, as ever Andy. You could scarcely get a a more incisive and accurate analysis of where we are now, and of how we got here. And your account ...
@werdermouth Thanks Werder. I'll get something to you on or before Jan 3rd.
@selwynoz No, it's fine. I felt that I had to opt out of the intros, since when they were being planned I was just out of hospital and couldn't gua...
@selwynoz I'm happy to step in if it's a help, Selwyn. The only issue I have is that there is only a two day gap between games, so I will have to...
Third game in a row when we are well in front and could well have been out of sight by half-time. Can't remember when this last happened for the Bor...
