Absolutely. And unfortunately the issue seems to be even more prevalent in other parts of Europe.

You mean youve just discovered that?

It still wrankles that we spent £15 million for what turned out to be a bench warmer. Spending that amount should guarantee a first team place.

You really do have to wonder how on earth that wasn’t picked up by VAR. Unbelievably last night on SSN they reported that Wood missed a good chance to get a point but fluffed it. They made no reference to the shirt pull. MOTD however couldn’t believe it wasn’t given and neither could Gallagher. It ...

Many in the Championship and Arsenal.

A red card offence? Could be soon.

Germany's 1st home loss in a WC qualifier since that famous 5-1 night in Munich, however it's worth pointing out that Germany reached the WC final a year later, so let's just wait and see how they get on in the summer shall we before gloating.

Oh I don't know. Enjoy the moment.

When was the last time we played on Easter Sunday out of interest?

I may be wrong but I think the Easter matches, often against the same team used to be Friday and Monday.

Bolton have also played in all four Divisions at two different grounds ...

Thanks. I really ought to catch up. Bolton's 'achievement' of course is very recent. When were they in the fourth division at Burnden Park?

Superb player and quite a character. Played for my mates team Town. The only team to have played in all four divisions of the Football League at two different grounds. Used to pass Outlane on my way from Slaithwaite to Bowers mill and had a chuckle about when asked who was his toughest ever opponent...

Life's as complicated as you want it to be. Clearly, the male/female answer would be useful statistically for the questionnaire but not essential. The protest one is a bit more complex.

Ok, so what do we want here ? a) A draw, one point each, keeping them both looking anxiously over the shoulder .... b) Brighton win, still a point behind us, and worsening Newcastle's points difference .... c) Newcastle win, leaving them 2 points behind us, and Brighton 2 points worse still ... d) ...

We are going to be relegated if Fulham win?

I'm just glad that our manager isn't as much of a shandy drinker as some are on here.

Come on Fulham.

Dont know and neither do you.

What I do know is that the bigger the gap between us and third from.bottom makes me more content.

Can’t understand why a Burnley fan right now would want anything but a Leeds win.

Some might hate Leeds but surely they would hate relegation far more. I know I would and hope Leeds win tonight.

I know we're struggling to make new programmes due to the Pandemic, but re-runs of a seventies sitcom? Things really are bad. They've been showing them on GOLD for years. It'll be Del boy and co next week. :roll: Yes bring it on. Comedy with Pathos. Or we could have Danny Boyle. He's about as funny...

From memory I can maybe see "Basil and the light switch" getting chopped.

Maybe the odd line from the "Germans"

Oh yes. Same programme, tne old colonel about the cricket. That would cause utter consternation and revulsion in Islington and parts of Leeds.

They have removed parts of it so they don't upset the snowflake brigade 🙄 Well they might then have to remove the sign to the hotel at the start of programme.

Pompey are another club with delusional aspirations
At best they are a decent mid div 1 club with a local derby at Oxford the highlight of their season
Eddie would be a good shout to see how good he really is without money to fritter on dross

Haven't done much since 'Arry and Jim have they.

Books are a good read too.

VAR and J. Moss combination. Couldnt even spot an obvious hand ball between them. Fortunately we didn't need it in a superb display in an entertaining game.

Stayingup

Its good to have two strikers as we have with Vydra and Barnes who offer very different styles to the team. Where does this leave Jayrod?

If we are in a relegation battle then so are Southampton who are in free fall, hampered with a bad defence and key players out injured to add to their woes . Bad result for Newcastle , favourites to go down with West Brom and Sheff Utd in my book.

Yes Saints missing the brilliant Danny Ings.

Stayingup

The fact is there's no way we could play football like that with Barnes on the pitch. He's just too static and immobile. Vydra drags defenders around and creates more space for our other attacking players. True but that depends on the opposition and who they are and how they set up. Barnes has prov...

Stayingup

Its looking like a very decent partnership is Vydra and Wood as did Brownhill and Westwood yesterday (though I'd like to see Cork with Brownhill playing centre mid). But if Vydra was a top class striker he would have scored a couple yesterday.

We've not actually. It was Harry who was party to a conversation about the appearance of the baby. Not sure why he'd feel the need to lie about that.

Harry said nothing on this matter in interview. Did you notice?

I'm only surprised a few more haven't walked off from these snide Gotcha interviews that are all the go now. Well done him. Too many interviewers ask questions and then butt in before an aswer is given. They're useless many of them.

Glad we didnt sign that Che Adams....hes a poor mans Vydra.

He doesn't score either.

Stayingup

Manchester City took a quick one against us at the Etihad and scored in Cup match. We tried it not long after at home and the referee brought play back. So on that basis it depends on the referee. We should though wise up and as mentioned above have somone stand over the ball till the defence is set.

Stayingup

Might be a good time for Leicester, whose away form has been good, to play us. But let us hope we can pick ourselves up and win. Pity we dont have a reliably fit right winger. This, like other positions, ought to have been addressed but wasn't.

True! I'm more concerned that we will still be a PL team come the summer though, let's get that position secured first and foremost, before we consider what budget we'll have in the next window.

To retain our current status is going to be tricky.
