1-0 will do for me. 3 more points on the Marescalator is all that matters.

When you contextualise it, it’s not quite the same thing is it?

How many people were there?

Seems like the ground invasion is starting.

I don’t think any of the XI yesterday had played a domestic 50 over game in two years.

Having listened to the 5live interview last night (at 9.30pm on 5live for those with BBC Sounds), it sounds like he had a lot of good coaching skills however it was working with Pep that has tactically taken him to the next level. So we are getting a better Enzo than Parma had. Also he's so humble, he's a scholar of the game, which Rodgers was not. That gives you such a higher potential for growth, and hence why Rodgers teams decline and why Klopp's, Pep's and hopefully Enzo's constantly evolve.

Absolutely not, that's a Forest and Celtic song.

This does make sense in a lighter context. Although I would never fight for a Forest fan, at the end of the day despite the differences in the clubs we support, I would imagine that I am 95% the same as a lot of Forest fans.

It was posted on here regularly, the local gang. I think only one is still at the club.

I think it was immediately rolled out that he had a gambling problem whereas that wasn’t initially a thing with Toney. Gambling is a weird one, obviously a very destructive form of addiction but you’ve got to wonder if their clubs have been looking after these guys as well as they could? I think it would be better to frame bans as rehabilitation. The education also needs to be better, a footballer shouldn’t be touching cocaine for example, and you probably need to get in there earlier with gambling. Oh and sack off all of the gambling advertisement.

To be fair I’d rather have our young lads dealing with their stress on the golf course than in the bars and clubs of Leicester several nights a week like some of the squad last season.

MP’s will have always abused their power. Hell the PM in the early 70’s supposedly has a few skeleton’s in his closet. Thankfully we hold these people to a higher standard now and give justice a chance.

I think one of the reasons for the confidence is that Enzo’s system is basically foolproof against much poorer sides. Like you’re going to need incredible luck (a lucky goal then us to miss loads aka Hull but Hull are far better than QPR) to beat us if you’re in a position like QPR.

The almost irresistible urge in elite cricket circles to immediately blame county cricket is hilarious. County cricket doesn’t make you lash out at balls in the 12th over which should be left. For me this is all about team culture. The likes of Root and Bairstow who have become far too complacent. The Stokes debacle, he should never have been called up. Playing a whole XI of players over 30, ruining the confidence of your guns like Brook, Curran and Atkinson. There will be no need to have a review or mess around with the structure of county cricket (although get rid of the hundred). It is simply time to move on players who should’ve been left behind 12 months ago.

I think in great teams that comes in time. We may see different tactics as we head into 2024 and hopefully closer to the premier league, but firstly we need to carry on being competent at what Enzo wants right now. Tuesday proved that we're not there yet, fortunately we won but we need to show we can dominate against top teams. You'd think Sunderland will be up there, so I'd want to see progress for when we play Leeds and then Boro and Ipswich.

Probably not out, terrible camera angles. At least it gives Buttler and Bairstow somethig to complain about to distract from the horror.

We were saying on this thread how if New Zealand or South Africa were in this position, they'd close up for 5-10 overs, consolidate and go hard at the end. Our idiots are just throwing their bat at anything or everything.

Appalling from Bairstow. Ran Root out and then just swiping at a ball that wasn't there. Needed to be far more patient as there's 37 overs left ffs.

Apparently a firearms instructor with severe mental health issues who had threatened to shoot up many places before. A firearms instructor with severe mental health issues. God bless America.

Christ, Maine as well which is generally the most chill state.

Everytime I see this thread at the top of the page, I'm wondering if Vingagaard's doping results have come in yet.

Newcastle probably gonna need a win at either Dortmund or PSG to go through. Amazing how they've blown the PSG win.

Nah fair play to them, much better than any of the alternatives when you look around.

Dortmund look class. Great refereeing too.

Funny as they looked decent until they sacked Eustace. Stupid owners.
