Get in there! Wilf! 2 in 4 days, prolific, who’d have thought

Brees gone off. Thought I could smell something !

Vesty foul - long bones vs Smallbone

Ha ha, officiating thread gets more evidence of the bonkers shocking standards in this league

Lovely composure in the finish

Hey Fati boom boom!!!!!

Understood, that would be Edam shame

Bree is going to be the cause of some cheesy jokes

Think there’s two

I would have kept Hamza in and maybe put Ricardo in Wilf’s position. Starting to think Coady played v WBA to counter their physicality / number of big guys specifically, horses for courses. However the spine of Coady, Winks and Vardy had a chain of leadership and vocality about it and clearly worked.

Bonkers that the guy who scores the winning goal in the final might not be in the sticker book, what kind of keepsake is that? Having said that you do get the occasional surprise star emerging in tournaments, Schillaci, Milla, Rossi, Josimar, maybe 9 other English left backs, OK 29 other English left backs, will get injuries and Luke will slot home the winning penalty

For its collectability for its pure novelty value this sticker must be worth what....10 other swapsies or a Brazil Badge It's like Mark Venus or Simon Morgan featuring in the Mexico '86 album.

Please tell me it’s at the expense of Chilbell

A genetically created supervillain, half Blo-Feld half Odd-Job, aka B***job

I swear Farke played an assassin in a Bond film, the kind of one that looks menacing and full of front but takes Bond about 3 seconds to chuck off an oil rig with his little finger.

18 seconds added for 2 minutes of Farke-ing about in extra time

A static statue wouldn’t feel appropriate. You know the mechanical Hare they have at the Greyhound racing, well an equivalent of that, a kind of Vardy manakin on a track around the pitch, zipping round at his peak speed with perhaps a few mechanically enhanced gestures when it passes the away fans. Wondered why there’s a delay in the stadium expansion? It’s this addition to the plans.

It was effective and moving again on Saturday and the overall emotion was one of solidarity. As this forum demonstrates there are a multitude of angles and opinions but for that moment we’re demonstratively united in one desire, a positive result.

Last night in Cambridge

Unless:- a) They're changing the card reading technology to a different system (doubt they are) b) Cards need renewing due to wear and tear (generally don't, credit cards are fine after 4-5 years plus) - and this should be an optional cad refresh not a forced one. Seat re-locations I presume do need a new card. - there is absolutely no need to force a re-issue and charge for it Making it optional to new STH's is another issue but even then, the cost of the card (I issue similar at work, they are less than £1 per unit, much less in bulk), the admin of setting it up and the postage still amounts to no more than a fiver, anything above that is purely a case of trying to cynically disincentive people from taking up the option whilst still saying "Hey, look, to those of you who say we don't want it as smartphone technology we are still giving you the option". I don't know the breakdown in figures between cards and digital and understand the economy of scale - the less you produce, the more it costs per item, but the £25 is a tax on the people who for one reason or another are genuinely phobic or feel unable to use the other technology which is a legitimate thing. If there was no charge then people not using cards would by a miniscule degree be paying for something they don't get but others do but we're talking pennies over the twenty something thousand tickets. If your reluctance in going digital is due to the inability to lend out your card that's another issue, one that the club won't show any sympathy for as it conflicts their terms and conditions, maybe the TV companies who move the fixtures which leads to people being unable to attend (more than 3 times a season) could sponsor the card fee (no chance of that). Hopefully a fans Trust / Forum can ask a representative two key questions:-- 1) Why can't card holders continue to use existing cards (unless they are relocating seats)? 2) What is the justification / cost breakdown of charging £25?

Pint for…..well Cardiff, all of it, everyone,

Thank f*** Choudhury didn’t have a haircut this week, saved a certain goal there

I agree with it, the hidden unmentioned essence is “ The last couple of months have been s**t haven’t they, forget that, (sorry no refunds due), we now have a mini-season of 4 games, win them and we get back to the Premier League.” It’s the right approach as you can’t change what happened vs Plymouth, Millwall, Bristol City, QPR, Boro but I do hope they’ve learned from those games and worked on avoiding further repeats as you can guarantee the likes of Preston will have taken encouragement and had plenty of flaws identified for their own game plans. We’ll see in this mini-season if there is that intelligence to respond and adapt rather than leap lemming-like off cliffs week in week out.

Maybe Maresca stood back and just let the players express themselves…..well that would be a first

WBA will be tougher than the Birmingham game being a better side, we need a similar performance and then some, it really is a must win and the two away games this week have given me little confidence, the players are starting to show the tension, over hitting passes, snatching at shots, no composure where it counts (and too much composure elsewhere Faes). Heart says beat WBA and Blackburn, draw the other two, head says are you blind mate they're not getting a point against St Tiddlesworths Girl Guides reserves XI right now, the heads have gone . Apart from Caseidi and the injured Macateer these are the same players who earned all those wins earlier in the season, it's in there somewhere, really would get wise steady heads in, Coady, Albrighton, get Wes Morgan and Birchenal in the changing room talking to them, the way others are f***ing up too a couple of wins might be enough.
