requires a subscription - at least in Oz, it does. utb
@original-fat-bob I don’t think so. Why does he keep on failing? This was a great piece of transfer business and let’s leave it at that. utb
It will have to be a lot more than Pds10 million. Alex Scott went for Pds25 million. I’d be surprised if anything happens before the summer. utb
I was able to watch the game on TV and for most of the first half we were awful. Our passing has been bad for the last few games and this was even wor...
…David Wheater
Another blast from the past - “the Esso sign means happy motoring” and don’t start me on Esso Blue using “others that you buy..smoke gets in your eyes...
@mw-in-darwin He's a big loss for them. We will automatically be stronger even if just with Jones and Dijksteel back from suspension. Having them...
@forever dormo Thanks for that excellent intro. Lots of stuff about Hull that I wasn't aware of from my far-flung situation. It does look as if th...
@k-p-in-spain There appear to me to be two choices. 1. Your suggestion that the whole of the Championship is poor because virtually nobody has be...
Not a great game with both sides too worried about leaving themselves open to counter-attacks. That has led to both sides playing some uncharacteristi...
It was 37C in Sydney today. Pretty stifling UTB
It would be surprising if both sides didn't give away at least one goal. Both teams are a bit leaky, play forward quickly and Ipswich switch quickly f...
.... maybe Michael Beale for Sunderland?
@clive-hurren Maybe Rotherham. It's nearer to home. UTB
Interesting to see how assured Law McCabe was when he came on and hats off to Dan Barlaser. He played a run of short passes to the kid and gave him ev...
You don't mind being wrong about something like that. This showed how good our coaching is. Everybody did their job and it looked like the 'A' team ...
Didn't expect to see that team. I must admit to being a bit nervous. McCabe and Cartwright on the bench at 17 and 16 respectively. UTB
@Martin Bellamy great opener. Lots for us all to get our teeth into. it looks as if we have lost another defender with Engel not available tonigh...
We were in control for most of the half but never really applied much forward pressure. They do appear a bit ponderous at the back which is probably w...
@original-fat-bob Generally, I take the same position as you. I like to believe that a good result is coming so that I can enjoy the feeling of ant...
Given the ongoing injuries to five of our better players and the issues surrounding the integration of so many new players into the team, I'm finding ...
I wonder who the next Academy star will be. UTB
@exmil Now the England U21 coach says that Hackney was playing 'higher' so I assume that he knows what was happening better than the reporter. He al...
@exmil according to the reports, he ended up playing in a very flexible midfield three, often in a kind of Johnny Howson role, a little behind the ...
@original-fat-bob Some interesting options. Equally interesting is to consider who the club might offload in January. Paddy McNair is the obviou...
Thanks for that. What a great idea. I’m waiting for the phone call 🙂
...for any stats fiends here are some numbers compared to Leeds' victory. Leicester had 66% possession. Against Leeds they had 65%. They had 12 shot...
@Peasepudinperth No reason to apologise. It all worked out as well as I could possibly have imagined. The point of my opener was to argue that Lei...
Yes, they have and it has led to quite a few occasions on which Leicester broke the press and carried it through our midfield. Equally, it has seen us...
@forever-dormo what wonderful news. My wife too has been through breast cancer and is doing well and I wish you the same. It puts football into pers...
