I personally believe that the majority of our supporters are delighted that we will still be playing Premier League football next season.

Some ive had the misfortune to “chat” with recently are far from delighted. Will “only be happy when we are a top 10 club”

One of the reasons Manchester City went from being one of my favourite other teams, all the way to the bottom of the cesspit of hate. Their fans are the worst kind. Vilified others who spent big, but absolutely have the “nothing to see here” mantra now.

Its the generation of people over 50 who embraced big supermarkets and out of town shopping outlets. Seems its now that generation moaning about the demise of the town centre. One thing you lot are consistent on though is blaming it all on the young. No mention of the young whatsoever. But you cont...

What is Derby’s wage bill against their income? Is this another case of all the money going to players.

RammyClaret61

Then in a few years time, the very people doing all their shopping online will be asking, what the hell happened to the town centre?

RammyClaret61

I’ll be honest, I had to Google it. Watford year before. Lost 6-0 to Man City. Last season. Arsenal v Chelsea. I would not have got that in a month of Sunday’s. That’s how it is now. Basically a nothing game unless your team is in it.

FA Cup Final Day. The showpiece of the FA callender. Well it use to be. What are you memories of final day? For me; just an 8 year old, my first memory is the 69 final, but only Manchester City’s red & black kit, thought it looked smart. Don’t recall the next at Wembley, Chelsea v Dirty Leeds. But o...

Ah but it is not about the club standing, it is about the revenue they can generate overseas. Dutch football doesn't even attract the Dutch. It once did. I was once an excited young teenager going to see them play at Old Trafford. Also went to see Juventus there as well. Because you could in the 70...

as mentioned at least 3 times on this thread alone, covid explains 1 transfer window not the vast majority of the last 8 seasons.

Hi Rammy,

Thanks for the message. I’ve filled a few gaps over the past few months but not so many. Let me check which I’ve still got outstanding and I’ll let you know ASAP.

Get my email address off CT.

Hey mate, just wondering if you managed to find all the programmes you were looking for awhile back. If not, what do you still need?

RammyClaret61

The more severe the punishment the better. I already think they should have been punished even before the ESL fiasco started, if only for poor sportsmanship and spending money far beyond their means. A club like Chelsea would be a mid table team if it weren't for the spending. I've mentioned it bef...

The UEFA fines are a joke. The FA should fine the clubs and split the money through the pyramid. I hope the fine by the Premier League is massive. I still think they should have a points deduction. They’ll just carry on next season like nothing happened, finish top six and get their money back. A 1...

Worst thing for us at the moment is that Newcastle now, will probably not need a win at Fulham.

Media bias towards the big clubs has existed for the nearly 50 years I’ve followed football, it’s hardly a modern invention.

Yes, but it wasn’t 24/7, and on every channel. It was the morning paper, Grandstand, World of Sport, MOTD, Granada Soccer & Sportsnight. That was about it.

Every single English Premier League game is on live here. I’ve watched 3 this season. Our games against Leeds, Southampton & Wolves. No interest in any other games. Cheating, crap refs, bloody VAR. but mainly, it’s the players & their agents. All bleeding the game dry. Players on £250,000 a fuckin w...

Or the defender needs to be aware that just getting to the ball first isn’t enough and that, if they are going to make a tackle, they need to ensure that they don’t subsequently take out the man as well Therefore, don’t make the tackle, and watch Vardy score. “After you sir, I believe we might make...

Not that I realised it at the time, but also my only time I saw Jimmy Mac kick a ball.

For this 11 year old claret, the evening marked my first excursion onto the Longside.

It appears that the rules have been changed and you are now penalised if the consequences of your tackle include heavy contact with an opposing player. You can no longer do a “man and ball” tackle or a clearance where you clear the ball and subsequently collide with a player (Mee v Gomez when Mee c...

Just seen this on Optus sports here. Wow just wow. Neil Lennon in the studio “he’s panicked, he’s out of control of his body, and deliberately taken vardy out” Russel Osman agrees with him. Years ago we joked about woman knowing nothing about the offside rule. Well now, who know anything about today...

Makes you wonder what people are seeing at VAR HQ.

No.... Don’t like Grimsby, their fans were never friendly in my experience.

I watched it on my phone, under the duvet!! Way past my bedtime. Kick off was 9pm for us, I only planned watching the first half. I nodded off and woke up at 2-0, went for a glass of water, came back, 3-0. Should’ve turned off. I get up for work at 4:30am. But I couldn’t to stop watching. Was knacke...

In my world, you fall over when you can no longer stand up. You don’t move when you are hurt. If a player is rolling about it is cheating. If you could have played on and don’t it is cheating. Referees are there to see shirt pulls and late tackles and have VAR to double check every decision... let’...

Hope the orem realise that was our unique selling point before it is too late.

Unfortunately I think it already is.

I fail to see what all the fuss is about. The ESL set-up seems to me to reflect the English Football League set-up, when formed in 1888, prior to the creation of a second tier in 1892. From small things, bigger things grow. For mine, let these big wigs dive around in the sun (I'm sure they won't be...
