Collymore

Maresca has gone on record saying how important it is to have the local boys playing. KDH genuinely loves the club. I'm hoping these two things combine and are greater than the need to sell for our financial situation. If we do sell now, the swiss cheese holes are starting to align more and more.

Got one in the ballot for this. I'm wondering with it being on Sky and a Friday night it might make all members anyway...

Not providing a specimen is more serious offence than actually being proven drunk at the wheel isn't it? Thing is a driving ban and fine doesn't hit him like it would your average person. He will probably get a fine which will be a few hours of pay and if he's banned for a year he'll be able to afford comfortable private transport easily. Your average Joe would be on the bus or cycling everywhere. Seems a bit unfair that.

A right kick in the love nuts that. Picked up 2 points against them but it feels like we've lost both. Almost identical games. Like we're stuck in some sort of Groundhog Day!

Yeman Houthis are sympathetic with Hamas and Palestine and are being funded and armed by Iran. They are claiming that they are targeting Israeli linked ships with missiles going through the narrow strip of water by them (which happens to be one of the most important shipping lanes in the world) but it seems they're just attacking any Western ships (even firing at a russian oil tanker!) So perhaps a degree of ineptitude too!... The goods we buy from the far East and Asia have had to be travelling around South Africa instead, instead of cutting though the Red Sea, making it more expensive for Europe to buy goods as it's a longer fuel sapping journey. US and UK told them to stop firing at the ships numerous times or else. They haven't and have since targeted American ships. US and UK bombed their capabilities to fire missiles the other week. Houthis getting more angry and not backing down so they are being attacked again tonight.

Most physical and pressing I think I've seen us all season. Only thing missing at the moment is the finishing, it been absolutely woeful.

If Trump gets in again I can honestly see it being the event that causes the start of WW3. Russia will try and take over Eastern Europe after USA pulls out of NATO.

Please tell me we've got someone called Danny in the coaching staff. Enzo in the presser pointed to the experience of Willy and "Danny on the bench" pulling the strings when he's in the stands tomorrow . It's not Danny Ward he's on about is it? Edit** Danny Walker - of course!

So KDH is likely injured. Looks like it'll be Choudhury, Winks and maybe Yunus/Praet tomorrow.

We can talk until the cows come home but there's no way, absolutely zero chance that Rudders gets the chop while Top's here. The best we can hope for is a change of job role or some new structural/ethos change in the way we do decision making as a club. Having had a 'review' at the start of the season into last season's horror show and seemingly nothing really has changed, I wouldn't hold my breath.

Saw Praet at a soft play today leaving by ambulance. Did his hammy climbing up the 'slide of doom'. I asked him how long he'd be out for... he said he'd already done both ankles on the 'spinning ladybird' so anywhere between 2 to 3 years or end of contact, which ever came sooner....

Can't throw far enough to get to the singing section.

Can't find the lineups for this Reading game...

Man City look phenomenal.

Maresca really didn't handle the red card well tactically. Pretty concerning we had only one striker in the squad. To take off player of the month Mavadidi when Fatawu had been sent off was such a poor decision.

I would have Praet on for Casedai as Praet could work the midfield and right.

Celtic 😉

The thing is most of the 'old school' come out for the bigs games all stone island up yet when it comes to it shut themselves,I was a prominent member of the ybs when we started it up,was always us young lot Avin a row,we were game as ****,hear the young lot now are(I'm 30) and av mrs and kids and don't bother anymore,pisses me off that you get the so called old school sitting in family stand with the kids in the s.i gear,yet when push comes to shove and it's gonna kick off say 'av got me kids',that's well and fine but then don't wear the clobber to say your a lad if your a has been,most so called lads ain't even as a row,gaur enter that out of 50 lads(hate it when folk say there was 200 there today)only a dozen tops will av it,the rest **** off back to the tavern and av the cheek to say they've just 'had it'!

Love a goal like that! Defender nearly ended up in the stand! Feels like we haven't bullied one in like that with the head at the back post since Howard

...and that's in the Championship. To think he was no 1 under Rodgers for so long in a relegation season is a crime. Rodgers should be arrested and put in prison.

Give him a 5 year contract with option to extend.

Anyone else have a problem with the NFC working at the turnstile with their phone? Phone works fine when shopping but can I get it to work with those turnstile receivers? Not a chance! I wonder if they are less sensitive than the machines in the shop perhaps. Can't think of another reason why they wouldn't work.

To think littler might be still playing professionally in 44/50 years. I'll be using a zimmer frame by then if I'm lucky!

I mean it was amazing seeing MVG and The Power in their prime but this is something else. Both players are exceptional. It's seems more likely for there to be a 180 in every visit than not! Phenomenal scoring!!!

Dare I say James is starting to look like the player we knew he was going to be? He's amazing at the moment - great defensively qualties, goals, assists and I think he'll be a key player next season. Love the fact he was training at Seagrave when Enzo was doing his first tour. Shows how much hard work is needed on the top of talent. What a player!
