Enzo 14 Brussel 2 in their last three meetings

Penny hasn’t dropped on Balague that his mate Lopetegui has been shit at two Premier League jobs, he’s just isn’t cut out to manage in the England and that’s before we get to Lopetegui just being a strange bloke

There’s an argument for that but equally it’s a volunteer based organisation

A Everton v Wolves draw very handy tonight. Everton’s run of fixtures now is very harsh, so having them below us would be great.

He wasn’t bad. However a general point on some of the fouls Soucek does. It was dangerous what he did to Justin just before half time. He pushes him into Mads. The bloke is like Kane in the way he aerially attacks the ball. More of a general point than a moan at this particular ref

Must be something in the water in Ipswich. Their defenders always getting put on their arse

Simply, we are dogshit at defending but if you actually use your attacking players in the way they can flourish, we might outscore teams. Props to both full backs tonight - really shown up well in their individual battles. Kristansen in particular

The shots and xG (of which I’m a fan) lack context here don’t they? West Ham go far more attacking than they normally would with the goal so early. Largely as a result proves their downfall as they get caught up far too high up the pitch twice. If we conceded that much but we went 1 up after 40 mins, yeah I think it has more significance

It’s not acceptable nor is it justification but it would partly explain his thought processes which proceed awful behaviour

Reiss and Zara menswear

If we stay up, I can’t wait for the roll neck tifo

Yep my bad. I had it down as a Tuesday

Friday night I'd say or outside chance of a 12.30 Saturday. We have Palace at home on the Tuesday

Btw the signs were there with Gregg Wallace. Very sad that he was sexually abused as a 8 year old which has probably left long-term scars. He's on his fourth wife, the last two are at least ten years younger and were both met via twitter

There's been a number of studies and investigations on sexual harassment within the hospitality/restaurant industry. My wife said when she was 16/17 waiting that the chef at that restaurant was an outright perv - his wife ran front of house but he treated the kitchen as though it was his rules/law. We have characters like Giles Cohen polluting it. We've have seen in the last couple of weeks how Heston has become a shell of man as a sufferer of ADHD & Bipolar working in a restaurant. There are deep lying issues with the industry. You are right respectful chefs don't deserve the stigma but it will happen and that's despite some major improvements with equality in the industry.

Some huge games this midweek. No win, bottom 3 for sure.

No punishment. A commonsense approach on this incident

Non pro Long distance runners peak at mid to late 30s supposedly. That obviously alters at the very top level but the world records are still generally achieved by mid 20s

We didn’t too bad with 12 of us at Simla Pinks post Everton

Not a chance that an ex Swansea manager moves to Cardiff given he’s a Welshman

Yeah kick off time like we are playing in Spain aswell

As genuine as Maresca's joy was at taking Leicester City straight back to the top flight at the first time of asking, the euphoria created by promotion could not disguise the fact that not everything was well at the club. Leicester's possible Financial Fair Play (FFP) issues were something he only became aware of after the season had started. That, coupled with a highly unsatisfactory January transfer window involving two deals in particular, also created conflict at Leicester. Cesare Casadei was very much part of Maresca's plans after signing on loan - coincidentally, from Chelsea - at the start of the season. Then Chelsea recalled him in the winter window. Stefano Sensi, from Inter Milan, had come to the UK to help complete the deal once the two clubs had negotiated a fee for the player. Suddenly everything fell apart over concerns surrounding the club's FFP standing. Maresca kept his counsel and soldiered on but to say he was unimpressed on both occasions would be an understatement. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cv22ed022j5o

Gave them his word and within a week he had changed his mind basically.

Maybe the penny might finally drop on those critical of Potter why he didn't want to take the job twice. Van Nistelrooy will have picked this job cleverly in that he has very little to lose. If he succeeds here, he will have interest. If he doesn't, it falls on the board. Less career affecting than Coventry or Hamburg.

"However, with Enzo’s decision made and the Board’s terms for his departure met, we wish him well in his future endeavours. He leaves with the appreciation of everyone at the Club for his work in helping us to achieve an immediate return to the Premier League during the 2023/24 season. Can hear the cat screeching from back in June now.
