Actually do think it's finally Arsenal's time but I'm rubbish at calling PL winners, I often go against Man City and often get proven wrong in doing so. Something missing with Man City. Obvious to say now but just not quite the same without a fit and firing De Bruyne and a lot of their players aren't quite what they were.

Theirs is one of the only ones in League Two on today mind.

They probably mixed them up with Colchester. Who are also in League Two.

It's also a load of absolute bollocks. You have to be probably what, in your mid twenties? To have seen us at our literal lowest ever point. Lots of my formative years watching us we're in the bottom third of the Championship getting beaten 1-0 by Preston and Burnley every year. And I'm telling people this is going to be a lot worse.

I do think this is probably it, but it still doesn't make it any less weird, or frankly mental of those who back it to me. I didn't realise the ones who made that silly "we've completed football we can **** it all off now" in 2016 were taking it this literally.

Saw a video of West Ham's end today at Wolves. Was as feral as you would imagine - an absolute barrage for their team bar one man who was clapping (and to be honest, I am assuming he was probably a relative of a player). We serve up something even more egregious on Thursday (and at QPR, and many more) and you've got old boys attacking people for calling it out while a sizeable number will stay there to clap it off. There is absolutely no way they are doing that because they're happy with the 'effort' they have just paid good money to have inflicted on them. They are doing it to spite 'the boo boys'. It's why it wouldn't actually surprise me if on Monday some of them did actually try and vocally support the team for the first time in about four decades. It will be nothing to do with love for this joke of a team, but more spite for those can see what it is. I just cannot believe this sort of activity takes place this frequently at any other club.

Our fanbase absolutely fascinates me. I did think a lot of those backing this disaster of a regime were a loud minority on Facebook (similar to what you could accuse this site of being to be fair but for the opposite) while the vast majority are pretty passive and sit in the middle, but seeing the old boys backing Aiywatt and the regime is so perplexing. It seems a really unique situation. I cannot believe that for example the equivalents at West Ham, Sheffield Wednesday, Wolves, Blackburn etc... are behind their equivalents. We've got the most bizarre fanbase in England. Confirmation bias maybe because I'm far more invested in this one than any other but I look around a bit, and I really cannot believe there's a situation quite like this. A genuine one-off. And one that is ultimately very damaging. What on earth do you do when there's a decline so utterly inarguable yet so many have taken a stance where they're actually backing the decline against those calling it out?

Forest's luck is just beyond belief. No matter how bad they are there's always three more disgusting teams.

Glover should go, but accountability is banned at this club so he'll probably be our new technical director.

It struck me somewhat in the Forest home game last season. Got absolutely ripped to shreds by I think Hudson-Odoi. Just looked totally off the pace. Thought on quality alone he'd get by at this level but I don't even think that's true anymore. Definitely time to move him on.

I've hammered Mavididi and to a lesser extent Fatawu lately but bloody hell they get nothing from their full backs at all. It's an awful side to play in as a winger. **** all support from the full backs. **** all to aim for in the box.

Ricardo is completely done isn't he. My word.

I think his form is a symptom of the terrible manager. He's a rough round the edges player who'll look very good in a well organised side and terrible in a bad one. He's not been good this season but I still think he's responsible for pulling a lot of the wool over the eyes of quite how dreadful we are at the minute.

Cults are strange things.

He's had a bit of a weird career really. Broke through at Birmingham when they were similarly shambolic, had a pretty nothingy year at Rennes and then ends up in this chip pan fire. He's genuinely been quite unlucky.

Is there anybody comparable in terms of both attacking and defending? You're going to tell me it's either Viktor Kristiansen or Ricardo ffs.

The only problem is the club dumb enough to do this already own him.

Guaranteed bad performance. Two rubbish sides. Maybe the luck swingometer will fall our way this week. If it does then you can be sure of defeat at Cheltenham.

However they want. I know for sure my ban is nothing to do with what happened at Palace.

Sorry, do you play for LCFC or something?

Oh god it's her again.

True story. Look at point E. I don't think I can sign that so I'm probably banned for the foreseeable.

I got banned for being near a smoke bomb that was set off, me and a few others got the blame for it. Appealed it, even watched the CCTV back. You can't see me actually do anything although you wouldn't be able to because I didn't. In truth it's worked out perfectly because you couldn't pay me to go to our ground at the minute anyway. Things were bad when I was first banned but they've gotten a whole lot worse since. I do remember after the Plymouth loss in 2024 I was that seething that I did nearly bin the West Brom game the following week off. I didn't, but I was getting there. This whole ban has just accelerated my hatred of those involved. Had something I'd been doing a good 15 years taken from me for literally no reason, but things have been so bleak anyway that I don't really get a jot of FOMO. I'm pretty frequently in and around town on matchdays anyway and have been to a couple of games in the home end this season (including yesterday) - occasionally as I'm intrigued to see quite how bad things actually are. In truth though after yesterday I doubt I'll even bother with that again, bar Wrexham because I've never been there. Sheffield United fans around me were commenting how terrible we were, calling us the worst side to go there this season - and that was at 0-0. When I get unbanned, well, if I get unbanned, and it's if because you have to sign this ridiculous 'behaviour agreement' which one of the terms stipulates you can't be negative about the club on social media, which I'll do as I please frankly, I won't be getting a season ticket until this owner has gone. That's a guarantee, nobody believes me because of the number of games I went to pre-ban but things change. I see everyone get back from the home games and put it this way I'm not even slightly envious, I'd far rather sit in the pub. I'll probably do away games, I still travel to some anyway as there's nothing stopping me - only thing I'm banned from is Leicester's ground and being in Leicester ends. The general vibe of people I went with yesterday are that they can barely be arsed to do many more this season anyway, and who can blame them, it's almost as terrible value for money as our playing squad.

Like night follows day

It is getting there genuinely. It's even got the similarity of having a Danish alternative who isn't much good either but is still substantially better.
