We were very lucky to concede only four goals today. Apart from our goal, Huddersfield created the best chance of the first half when Lenihan cleared ...

@forever-dormo I always felt that the somewhat Philistine Mr Goodman endlessly inveighing against "foreign rubbish', such as pasta and curry was a ...

@jarkko Thanks for the link, Jarkko. it's a great interview. I loved the line about Huddersfield's report back on the Boro-Preston game. I can'...

Stayed a number of times at the Ferry Boat Inn in Ullapool as a base for touring the Highlands. A great part of the world, and what a come down it alw...

Bob, sorry to hear about the Covid. It's still rampant and most unpleasant, though now receiving almost no publicity with no one taking any precaution...

Just to add to the heartfelt words of thanks and welcome back to Werder for all of he has done in enabling this wonderful blog which means so much to ...

@clive-hurren Brilliant summary, Clive, and an exemplar of all of the qualities of the blog that you describe. Many thanks

Apologies, I'm away at the moment and don't have time to participate fully. Just wanted to say how brilliant most of the contributions have been on t...

Thanks Bob. Good to see that you are back on top form. This is a great opener, and I will hope to further my reputation as an ace tipster, acquired ...

@martin-bellamy Thanks Martin. If the coaching staff do not know who our No 1 penalty taker is then they should find out and install him pretty dar...

Great win and performance on Saturday with a standout display from young Ramsey, a masterful one from the evergreen Jonny Howson, and a return to his ...

@exmil Thanks so much for all of your hard work in organising this for our enjoyment. Greatly appreciated. Here is the verdict from the Wirral ju...

My prediction: what ace tipster Bob said. Bob, having successfully predicted the last two 3-1 scores, giving him a 200-1 double (20-1x 10-1) is now ...

Belated congratulations to Bob for correctly forecasting the most improbable scoreline of the season at Sheffield. Trying to learn from him I'll go ...

So sorry to hear about your situation, Ken. I wish I could do more than send you my very best wishes, but you are constantly in my thoughts.

PS: Thanks for another very professional opener. Andy

@jarkko Yes, I too saw that table which put Carrick as our top ever manager in his first 17 games. It's a tremendous achievement, much to his in...

@powmillnaemore Oops! Mea culpa. Entirely misread the final para of your post, every last letter of which I entirely agree with. Apologies ...

@powmillnaemore Liked your post, but did you really mean to say that most teams in the division play quality football "even better than we do at th...

Great game with Boro dominant after an awful start conceding a poor goal rom a long throw Midfielders all outstanding with the Howson,Hackney and Mc...

@forever-dormo The Old Spice boys more like. Ver good longer post which I completely agree with. Same with David's excellent post.

A minority of one I suppose, but I'd stick with McNair. His performance at Sunderland was the one bright spot on a terrible day. Fry was very poor...

Clive: You are right. We should be able to give Sheff U a good game. But I thought that barely a couple of weeks ago against Sunderland. Then again...

Thanks Bob for yet another well-informed starter. Agree that United will probably do what they did so successfully to us last season. Go for a high ...

Very good analysis, Andy, and perceptive in pointing up the differences between Carrick and our previous managers. As you say it's not simply a matt...

Prediction for today's game is a simple matter. If we reproduce last week-end's form we will win at a canter . If we play as we did two week-end's...

@deleriad Thanks for taking the trouble to reproduce this. Very interesting

@original-fat-bob Yes, Bob, I saw that and, as I suggested, it's clear that the impetus for Watmore's departure did not come from Carrick: "I was...
