@pedro The mood music seems to be changing in favour of a shorter term CB fix.

@forever-dormo I think your Possession is a False God statement is very interesting. I guess it's for other forums than this to explore w...

@martin-bellamy Having struggled to figure this out over the last couple of weeks, here's what I think the situation is. Apologies if I've got it w...

Thanks for that excellent recap of the chequered history of this cup, whatever it's called. For this, and for the possibly even more important league ...

Mind you if I were going for subtlety, I'd hopefully take more trouble to spell it properly.

Si I don't have anything of the subtly of your post to add to that. Like Len, I had to read it more than once to get the full import. I just w...

If you don't want to know the score, look away now. Sunderland 4 - Sheffield Wednesday 0 Ouch

@john-richardson I was with you every step of the way on that particular walk

What better way than a mighty piece from Sir Len the Pen to announce that we really are coming to the end of the phoney war of the close season and ab...

I'm very heartened by the loan of Sammy Silvera to Portsmouth. I take it as a strong indication that we're intending to step up another level this yea...

@exmil All the best for Wednesday.

It seems that Cameron Archer is going back to Aston Villa under the terms of his buy-back clause, possibly with a view to being sold on straight away....

Who would have thought that a home defeat to Leeds on a miserable Monday night could put us all in such a good mood. As suggested by Martin's Guardian...

@deleriad I strongly agree with your analysis. I think that the real decision that any player in a defensive situation is faced with, ...

If we're waiting to be put out of our misery, it looks like we're going to have to wait a little bit longer.

@jarkko As I'm sure you've already learned over many, many matches that, if you're looking to hone your English skills beyond their alrea...

@lenmasterman I must admit that I hadn't noticed Powmill's COTS Challenge Update at all. Now that you've drawn it to my attention, I can see that...

From what I've seen of Ayling, he brings a lot to the team. He has an energy, enthusiasm and a strong connection with the crowd. He plays with a smile...

@exmil Looks like your prediction was spot on. Sorry, Werder, just spotted that you saw the same thing, but quicker than me.

Brilliant starter Clive. You managed to combine all of the interesting, illuminating and fun stuff about the Norwich clash, with the morose, morale-...

@werdermouth I think you put your finger on a key point regarding the loss of Crooks. Since he was not a regular first teamer any more and his inf...

@werdermouth It's taken me a day or two to come to terms with this, but you've really shaken my faith in my prejudices regarding puddings. If...

Thanks for an amazing range of topic discussions on this forum this week. It's really helped me to take my mind off how shocking the Boro were last Sa...

@lenmasterman I cheered too. It's one of the many things that seem to stir up my grumpiness, the older I get.

@clive-hurren That's the most I've laughed since 15:00 yesterday. Thanks to Martin too, for the setup.

I know it took place. You can still get the program. But what if it was it was really 10 - 0 and you've watered it down in your memory 🙂

@clive-hurren Of course Clive, how could I forget 7 - 0 . It's so much easier to bring back to mind when it's totally undocumented

@exmil In my version of alternative reality, I was kind of assuming we could somehow pocket the entire £128. I wasn't pushing it a bit. I was pus...

These discussions about our aspirations till the end of the season are really fascinating and expose one of the conundrums that being a football suppo...
