Chicago for best hot dogs,though NY battery park has some good days… Uk firework night, or Dwali .for great British hot dogs,with hot onions.. But not one football stadia or concourse can serves up a decent Hot Dog..

You stay baffled with my posts…! So long as Enzo keeps doing the Fandango with the opposition..who cares..!! I am just a poor boy I need no sympathy Because I'm easy come, easy go, little high, little low Any way the wind blows doesn't really matter to me, to me..

Rudkin…

For the neutral.. it’s been good to see Huddersfield,Sh.Wednesday,QPR, still come out fighting and taking points..The last 2 mentioned drifted away on points ,now finding it hard to close that gap..but they’re having a go.Though the terriers are slowly turning it more around in their favour… All 3 will have their say in that fight& spirit needed to try and be 1-2 of them that might survive… Rotherham on lack of pts have gone, though will also take pts off the teams twitching to try and drive further their own achievements.

Shit happens…Winks yesterday,either blackout or misdirected pass from a googly Vardy,KDH,Daka mis hitting open goals. Why we have so many pages of this incident outweighing those 2 great moves (plus a 3rd) that created our goals…Always leaves me somewhat baffled. Watford (A) was always going to be tight a bit agricultural,but again Enzo delivers. We are running into a long patch with FA.cup of 3 games over a week. I no longer think of whys or therefore on Enzo’s selections,he has the better view, and perspectives of our needs.. and a small thing of ToTT 75pts/31 an intensity that for a complete turn around in system & squad ..in tactical terms,the best in all divisions,including Ipswich, Luton,Brentford…Southamptons great early/late turn around.

Ahh come of it..—!! Let the doubters,moaners,small minded-chase every mistake,diagnose it,rip it apart like a frog dissenters… You write a great post..with all the logic one needs.. BUT we need these miserable old/young sods.., to give us our post game entertainment,especially on Sundays before and after the roast. I realised over each passing season Some just can’t stop themselves trying to set up their melodramatic figures and opinions while despite League position or new style whole package, they still love their over the wall washing line Gud ol’ moan… We all need a laugh in these great times for our club as well as the parallel various bad times.. Tom n Jerry after 70 yrs gets boring, but those Daffy Duck left field opinions of our ever negative,but still true supporters…. like Maria…they just makes me laugh..

Just keeping up with the nonsense within the forum,but also the canny unexpectancy of Enzo… Enzo for me can put Doris the tea lady in the line up,and I would be happy with the selection…

Fatawu..shown he has to be tighter.. Mcateer moves into his place.Mavididi selected for LW. Cannon comes in for Daka Vestergaard returns 4-0 win.

Poor Ref on Englands kick.Your are allowed to take a side step,before “Approach“…Quite pathetic really. But England Not doing too much to make the ball theirs..

Argue with Enzo..

Better trust in Enzo,he knows better and is wiser,than any poor opinions over good players that FT delivers and try to deliberate on..

Play him in the championship to get experience……#@&%§

Like us,they are dogged,fighting spirit, and for the championship not lacking the skill set..They have played through 30 games..luck has nothing to do with it.. Even deflected goals like Mavididi or Mcateer they took their chance and burst the net…Ipswich deserve to be in the EOS promotion run…

Leeds. 60pts Ipswich 60 pts…..same amount of games.. So with 16 games to go..Do you believe for those two it’s all over?? Small reminder..we dropped 14pts in 15 games in our PL days that we missed out on that coveted 4th spot. Over, singing,& fat lady comes to mind….

3 teams chasing each other puts more and different pressure on. They need to strain their necks a bit longer .2 other opponents is far better for us. Plus I said after this weekend..Ipswich fixtures are more comfortable.. This 1 point keeps them in the promotion lottery.especially further down the line. They refind their pre Xmas form…Its going to be a few more worries for the other 2.Plus we will need to be on our toes right up to the wire…

Yes

Would be nice …but they will be breathing down our necks for awhile yet..

2 teams will have near on untouchable performances until the end of the season… Southampton & Leicester… Ipswich can prove their credentials this weekend and join us on long runs Leeds can and have always that squad that can walk these 16 games,but also drop unexpected points. So I still predict a 4 team battle glorious,each weekend will bring slight gains and losses,but we 4 have some quality So it will need several drop points to see who has lost the full bragging rights,many tip Ipswich but a loss or draw this weekend wont yet be defining..

Bournemouth this season are not unlike us of old,a decent mid table side,but have tendencies to slip down now and again,or find form to dabble with top 9-6th. This game is open,simply because it’s an all round don’t know.. We don’t know what Bournemouth will have on the night We surely don’t know our player,squad system hights capabilities we can reach.. & its neither defining whether we are good enough for PL or just a decent championship side. It’s a simple one off game,where a win either side gives confidence to that winning side, Though if we lose,we won’t shy or cry away from championship earnt ambitions.

We live in a capitalist society, I don’t believe within these chaotic boundaries,that we have,That the PL is something we should take for granted or spit at…. Whats on the field within its various modern characteristics is a super stage, Today tv/Plastic tourists are part of the infrastructure,if it wasn’t Sky then the Asia market is technically a few steps in front,so they would have created their own platform…Plus Australia considered a few steps behind,they too would and have a World wide TV sponsor platform…. What some fans dislike in UK,is the Skysports commentary and they themselves are bias,not just the pundits… Off-field prize distribution, TV profit given to Football is probably poorly distributed that can not be combined with the onfield… Transfer/Wages has nothing to do with onfield performances.. Manager & player relations have on-field repercussions,that’s part of life.where fans will have also their opinions I dont like sky sports,because at first they promise many top sport coverage,then ask extra,or increase costs too rapidly…I cancelled everything to do with Sky. In mainland Europe,I can see every top league,and often lower league football, either by “pay tv” pay as you go, or packets, without sky,or often terrestrial. That all said,I love watching PL football, the only hate is VAR & how much game incidents they cover,instead of introducing certain issues slowly. Plus not keeping to its the ref descision, not someone’s in a pod,that could well be bias. First the technic for incidents have to be failure free,and for every game, lines drawn for offside have to be available to ref-line side-monitor.. Every descision should be his alone,only VAR has a suggested help. We forget TMR in Rugby need several seasons to reach where it is. Ref has to be given support from authorities,Yellow cards are not given often enough for not retiring once Ref-descision is made. Crowding ref after 5 seconds, yellow card.All players in the crowd..A red card has to have man-management thoughts and solid verbal warnings. Like Rugby players seen to do something,that ref hasn’t picked upon there is every game a match tribunal ,that can give out suspensions…or yellow cards rescinded or brought up to red. Football could take that up. There is nothing wrong with the PL matches experience,other our opinions might be more cynical and OTT .The game itself I still love.. Forums and our cross talk and exchange of views, to me a pastime play platform. Like debating with your mates,nothing personal,no controls of addressing each other, so long as it it keeps a certain decourum and sarcasm sometimes with a turn of wit..The odd rant, why not.. Again whether PL,Championship,or through the game down to Stadium-Rovers,or Anstey Nomads, I love watching football.

Just to throwin a curved ball…. Arent these payouts,well balanced… Its all sad or pretty nice,,according to your season. Its competitive and professional sport..you take your chances. The higher your achievements,surely higher the spoils…. Do I feel sorry for Sheffield.utd or Rotherham..YES..!! But they took their chance,to see if they could compete they found their answer… FFP rulings will help in the long run, but at first most « also rans » in every league may have over spent…But all clubs will in a short time recognise their budget. Plus in 2-4 seasons time Agents and their Players will be forced to drop their expectations the hard way…They have no buyers, Europe or world wide… We have to try & pull back on the extremes…and not feed it further. Contracts will have to be more balanced, the length can stay the same 1,3,5 yr contract. The fees will find a better balance where clubs can’t loan money, they will be forced to buy at said price money on table, therefore the selling clubs can’t be over zealous..It will take a while 2-4 seasons, until the player-pool market comes down a bit more,and hopefully see in 5 seasons fewer players earning vast sums, without gametime,around the middle teams. Funny thing is Man.city,L.Pool,Arsenal,and Leicester do rotate,and pick n choose their players. Every club has the right to have 25 player squads + Academy,successfull teams can afford in depth quality…but the prices on release are better balanced if buyer can’t loan money for a transfer..unless it’s payed off according to FFP rulings.And Wages agreed to within FFP regulations like I said it will take time…but also the fans must and should accept then welcome their clubs live within their means. Now how each football competitions take their profits and see their grass roots football and clubs are honoured and helped ,we come back to the original response to this post..We need the PL profits to help also the championship/league teams,which it does…plus these teams outside the PL have their own Associations,that are answerable to their teams….In simple terms for the fans, if PL could find let’s say an extra £10mil,where £3mil goes to prize money and the championship finds from their profits an extra £7 mil where £3mil goes to placing.. Ditto for the other 2 league's according to their profits…..In fact that is how it functions,it’s just the question on profits and fair distribution,certain leaway to be discussed and found to help lower team at “this moment” struggling to survive and pay eventually their way…. . BUT..!! We shouldn’t forget,it’s a professional sport,with interested party investing in “their” team,… Owners & Sponsors. Once certain regulations are set and they all apply and agree to certain regulations,they the clubs are allowed to work in a free market..Its basically what we already have. Its just there is at present a seen unbalance in passed down grass roots money & What owners ,sponsors, ( would be saviours) financial capabilities it brings in # player investments # Club improvements # club infrastructure staff…. If we want the sport to go on,with a better balanced profit margins shared from & through the various level, regulations,controlled implementation,more importantly a controlled measure the clubs don’t spend above their means. FFP is a start to the means,EUFA is trying to find a way,and maybe we can see the end of Astronomical transfer fees,and OTT wages. Automatic % drop in wages if relegated,no player negotiation..No automatic expectancy of wage increase if promoted,club will need to see if income warrants it. If a Leeds happen to be richer,than fellow promotion candidates,that’s to their good,such teams shall not suffer ,they shouldn’t then suffer decreased promotion prizes. Each get what they earn.”.First”

I am so grateful when poster's throw up these lists, with stats.. Makes the comparisons interesting and put certain stress factors or stumbling blocks... I do believe. ALL 4 TEAMS will do unexpected well and keep their form, but now, the others whoever they are can make Hay if 1-2 teams just lose 1 game or draw 1-3. Leicester just have that bigger playroom. Plus I reckon Ipswich have had their wobble.. A lot running on their game this weekend (WBA).. They win this.. Massive confidence booster.. Then a reasonable smooth run.

You see..! different perspectives I believe we are the mentally stronger team, plus we IMO have a. better equipped relentless system.. Though I always carry that Leicester Last minute doubting DNA... Again this season we will simply just roll on...

Yes but a few of those bottom teams suffer from major injuries at this time of year, So often few can't fight for their lives, they just don't have the Amunition.
