Plymouth exile Drop Doyle, flatters to deceive, play Rhino and move Wing up field. The rest will take care of itself.

Rino off with Zimbabwe for AFCON very shortly so not sure on his availability. Zimbabwe’s first game is on 22 December so expect they’ll want everyone together by Monday (15th December).

DK has the fitness to do it. I was disappointed with him Tuesday after a couple of good displays - seemed really reluctant to get high up the pitch - be it in possession or pressing Of course that’s maybe what he was told to do - but felt the press was generally ineffective as he just let the RB ha...

He's a "good lad" though so seemed to fit the main criteria. ;-) I do wonder if there was a consideration to playing with 3 at the back when bringing both O'Connor and Burns in. Didn't seem like it with pre-season tactics but what we've ended up with seems like it might fit. Burns/O'Conno...

Well, if you have the right channels, you have a choice of eight of the ten PL games this weekend. :shock: Two games (if you can call Arsenal v Wolves a game rather than the proverbial foregone conclusion) Saturday, 5.30 and 8 then I think all 5 games on Sunday ending with ManUre at 8pm on Monday. ...

Ticket prices are insane. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G75zulNWUAErbZ4?format=jpg&name=900x900 Even the shit games like Ecuador v Curacao start at $180. Stadium will be empty. Having said that... have applied for the Croatia game in Dallas, Ghana in Boston, and quarter final in Miami. If i get a...

after seeing that Fulham Vs Palace was 'super sunday' last week, and obv deciding I was not going to watch it, I looked at the league table and pondered what would be the least appealing fixture this season. I decided on Burnley Vs Fulham. tomorrow's game picked for telly is Burnley Vs Fulham! Thin...

Will there be world cups in 2042? Won’t the world supposedly all be one big happy country by then?

I think the 0-3 at home to Port Vale, just before, was worse, but I've seldom been as angry about a performance as that night in Oxford. Thanks, yes so bad it was blotted out of my mind… Remember now the after match pitch invasion, triggered by one bloke running on and sitting in the centre circle,...

Was probably expected and may explain why he hasn't seen more minutes. Pleased for him, but the sooner this damn competition is moved out of the middle of most European league seasons the better for everyone! If Africa is too hot why not hold it in the summer in Europe, where lots of the players ar...

Looks like Panini have misjudged the popularity as trying to find stickers is tricky, even the Panini website is selling out as soon as they re-stock and prices on eBay are at a premium. For the record there are 788 stickers/stamps in total although the last 80 or so, covering League 2, are doubles ...

I'd expect Bradford to be favourites. If nothing else, it's commutable from the Accrington/Burnley area so would offer him the least disruption outside of football. Unless, of course, he wants to move back down south. He's 21, hails from Hastings and has been up north since 2021, apart from a few g...

Knibbs has been getting more game time for Charlton too, again due to a large number of injuries, although his impact has been limited according to a Charlton fan in the family. He was subbed off at half time the other night during their defeat to Middlesboro. Believe both he and Mbengue are still ...

There have been many that were much worse than on Tuesday night. 3 that come to mind:- THAT Oxford game already mentioned (my in-laws lived about 400 yards from the Manor Ground and were OTT sympathetic after the game). Reading 0 Bristol Rovers 6 (the only good thing to come out of the game was the...

Called up by Zimbabwe for AFCON. Presumably means we won't see him at the SCL until the New Year now. Was probably expected and may explain why he hasn't seen more minutes. Pleased for him, but the sooner this damn competition is moved out of the middle of most European league seasons the better fo...

Oxford away in 1998, finally sealing the taxi’s fate. I think the 0-3 at home to Port Vale, just before, was worse, but I've seldom been as angry about a performance as that night in Oxford. Thanks, yes so bad it was blotted out of my mind… Remember now the after match pitch invasion, triggered by ...

First game of the season for, and what a joyous trip down from Brum it was... Echo most of what's been posted here already. 1. The passing between JP and the two centre backs. Why so much? 1a). Why do we need two centre backs inside our 18 yard box for every goal kick, especially when one of them s...

I think in hindsight recruitment wasn't good enough this season. Lane, Marriott, Williams, O'Connor, Ritchie, Fraser and Doyle all looked good on paper, but there is no coherent plan. Example in case is Wing and Savage being deep and lost every week. Did we think about what sort of players would co...
