@philip-of-huddersfield Excellent post, Philip and an interesting take
Absolutely brilliant, Dormo, with another classically executed extended metaphor following Clive's agricultural tour de force opener for the Ipswich g...
Many congratulations, Jarkko, on all of the skill and hard work that went into producing such a detailed and interesting opener. You show how and wh...
Thanks exmil. Good to know that I am vying for top spot in being wrong in my pre-season predictions. Like KP I stand by my predictions because all of ...
Weird team selection with Ayling, outstanding this season, on the bench as we revert to a back four, and places found for serial under-performers, Wh...
@clive-hurren Enjoy your break, Clive
Selwyn and MW Brilliant updates, gentlemen. Thanks for keeping us all informed, right down to flight availability What a fantastic blog this is !
Consummately professional writing Clive. Your puns are particularly good because there are so many of them embedded within a perfectly coherent surf...
@martin-bellamy Have a great day Martin

I see that, according to the Gazette, when Scott was asked about the role of AI in player recruitment he said "We haven't not used it" I suppose you...
Jarkko, He wasn't ever called TLF in his day, but may have been referred to as "the original" post Juninho. PJ I assume he must have lived in Redcar...
Thanks Martin. Wilf was always an accessible hero. On one occasion me and my mates, a scruffy crew of ten year olds, knocked on his door in Highbury A...
@werdermouth I think that's right, though Silvera played left wing back in those early games, We have lacked a wide outlet without him. At Millwa...
On the coaching staff my first impression, based only on my ignorance, was that they seemed a curious choice. Usually a new boss will bring with him a...
@exmil Come on exmil. Don't tease us. What have you heard, seen or read?
Very poor and disjointed display from the Boro. Main problem- no width and no pace to get us behind the opposition And because of this very little ide...
After a bright 10 minutes we have done very little to put any pressure on Pompey. Love Morris, but this has been his poorest half for us. Too slow on ...
Just checked the stats for the above; Leadbetter 2014-15 12goals 2015-16 4 2016-17 3 ...
Good post, Si. It was a good win against the Baggies and the second goal really settled it. Up until that point in the second half, however, we were h...
Good post, Pedro
Excellent opener, Andy, as we have come to appreciate, and at such short notice too. Very good analysis of the Conway position, and I agree that thi...
Martin, to be clear, three draws is better than a win and two losses, as you say. But it's marginal. In addition to your point about depriving the opp...
@presidentjump Izzy was pulling up trees for the Hatters at the end of last season. A real crowd pleaser and probably their best player in the fina...
The warmest of welcomes back, Si. Great to hear from you again, and many thanks for your typical, but still extraordinary, historical research into Bo...
I'm happy with the draws from the last two games, and with the philosophy that if we cannot win games then we must make sure that we don't lose them. ...
Happy to escape with a point after a second half dominated by Stoke, who spurned a hatful of clear cut chances. The coaches have received well-earne...
Good performance so far with lots of neat approach play. We need to get onto Strellecs wavelength. He seems to have made little impression, but his mo...
I hope that Browne will play in midfield making us really strong in that area rather than right wing back. This would have the disadvantage of moving ...
PS Glad to see Browne in tonight. Thought he was outstanding when introduced as a sub last Saturday. An experienced hand just when we needed it most
