The amount of competitions City go deep in, he will still get plenty of games and it wouldn't surprise me if they're both rotated in the league too. Against the weaker sides, he may opt for Trafford who's far better with his feet, but against the better sides he may opt for the new keeper who's prob...

Got to say I'm a little concerned regarding Brookes early captaincy. He just seems to me far too laid back, blasé and a little non plussed by it all. England were getting a tanking and at one point in the field he was having a right giggle with another player out there. I'm not sure Morgan, or previ...

What is the square leg umpire doing stood there? I noticed it one game earlier in the summer too. Screenshot_20250902_141112_Gallery.jpg They stand there nowadays to allow the cameras to have an unobstructed view for run outs and stumpings as they just refer everything upstairs. There's been the od...

Yes agree. The young players I was referring to were the few who made their debuts. Couple of decent players in under 13 and 15’s who will hopefully stick with it as they get older. That's why it's vital a good pro arrives next season, and I don't just mean performance on the pitch wise. This day a...

It’s been another long season! Hopefully they manage to get a decent all rounder pro and a couple of the younger lads who’ve gained experience this year push on next season. Problem they've got down there is some of the youngish players, not the really young ones who've only just made their debuts ...

Palazzo always good. All the restaurants down at Crow Wood are worth the trip out, and cater for lots of price ranges. Ellis’s good in the old Mix building, though I’ve not been for a while. The Ram in Cliviger just under new management and is getting brilliant reviews and was excellent when I visi...

We're a small town club who is insignificant to people apart from our supporters. Very few Worldwide neutrals would switch on to watch our games, unless we're playing one of the big boys of course. All we can do is to try and amass enough points to stick two fingers up at the Premier League and the ...

It is all about opinions I watched the whole game on Sky after it had finished The referee/ vAR got all the big decisions correct in my opinion Certainly not crazy marks like 5 5 5 5 out of 100 He is arguably one of the best referees after Oliver Can't disagree with most of that, but do you not thi...

Re the penalty decision, for me the most telling comment came from the MoTD commentator, whose immediate reaction when Amad went down was “he’ll get nothing for that.” It just didn’t look like a penalty - that’s why the ref didn’t give it. Commentary is edited d to the highlights on MOTD after the ...

Saw the Fulham one in the pub in the game before the match absolutely ridiculous decision. If ever a ref was made for VAR and an announcement to the crowd it’s Rob Jones. Something I've thought for a while now, we have the best league in the World with some of the best players in it, arrogant maybe...

Doesn’t matter

If a foul continues into the box it's a penalty

Stranger things have happened, Try and keep it at 1 0 for as long as possible and hopefully they'll become anxious as the game should be over ..

Wouldn't be surprised to see Lauren on.

What a save Dubravka. Wtf are we doing at set pieces here? Absolutely ridiculously bad.

Bring back the old set piece coach. I thought it would be impossible, but this one seems worse than the last

Hannibal - say no more !

There's two fuses clashing there shorter than the bangers I used to buy as a kid on bonfire night!!

Hopefully Hannibal shows them what they could have had, wonder what odds he is to score?

Bruno is the key for me, he's just a class above and really makes them tick. Hopefully if we can frustrate him, his petulant side comes out and he does something silly.

Good news is we may get to round 4 of league Cup
Four more wins and we have the Cup

The club are clearly struggling with the energy cost hikes too though, as we can't seem to keep our lights on

Andreshotboots

I'm pretty split on this one. On one hand I can't help thinking that the pressure will be massively ramped up on them Saturday to comfortably beat us, even more so than it is usually for any Manchester United player, and I'm not sure some of their players are too comfortable at handling that. It was...

Andreshotboots

I thought it was poor defending overall for their goal. Not just down to one player. Lord knows what Eustace would have said if they'd conceded the goal we did. He didn't give us an ounce of credit for our goals, and basically made them sound like it was all down to poor defending and no attacking ...

Andreshotboots

If that is the case and it’s the land I think you mean, my guess would be it’s a smaller ground for the Academy/Women’s team, which would be absolutely brilliant. Not sure why you'd want to incur such huge costs for something that doesn't generate any money for the club.. I think Everton will disco...

Just on stadiuns, what is the reason again Newcastle are allowed to hide the away fans so far away from the action in the Gods? Gives them such a massive advantage...

I'm sure it's been discussed on here previously, but I can't find the life of me remember the reason..

Andreshotboots

Would rip the heart out of the club and the town if we moved. Ask West Ham fans what they think of their shiny new stadium. Or you could ask Arsenal, Spurs, Sunderland, Coventry, Everton fans etc what they think of theirs? Their clubs heart seems ok, and I bet they don't miss their old run down gro...

I know this has been discussed on other threads but is this actually a permanent ( when completed ) move of the home CFS lot ? The more I think about it ,were further away from. “ linking” to the Longside and have a full away end sandwiched in between . It seems almost suicidal in terms of atmosphe...

I'm in!! TV companies would hate that though, how are they going to show the chimneys, the grey slate roofs and crown point from over there?.

Lets face it we need a new purpose built stadium that's fit for the 21st century.

I've said earlier, this is all part of Mr.Pace's plan to make things so bad, that the heavy resistance from supporters to move away from the current site, becomes less and less.

Watch this space

Andreshotboots

I think a fair bit of the concern is not so much the changes themselves, but the potential safety issues created by the changes. People saying that the changes have been made by those who don't leave the game right after the final whistle, doesn't really make sense to me. Turf Moor and it's footpri...

Andreshotboots

It’s not ideal but in reality I think at least half of the James Hargreaves and most of the Jimmy Mac turned right after a match anyway so it’s an extra half of a stand but no more cricket field end as they are now coming out the other side I don’t think it’s going to be as bad as some people think...

Andreshotboots

I also find it shocking how this has been done, and seemingly with very little consultation. However, playing devil's advocate, don't forget there will be no longer home fans exiting out of the cricket field stand at the far side, and it certainly was the case that not all those fans headed up Ormer...

Andreshotboots

Who knows, maybe this is all part of a master plan by Mr Pace. Maybe he's cynically trying to show the Turf is no longer really fit for purpose, by causing issues for fans, therefore reducing resistance for a new purpose built out of town stadium..

Stranger things have happened in football...

Thought more than anything we missed CJ at the back more than anything. The first goal, CJ steps in and clears it, Ekdal off the pace there 2nd goal you can’t argue with that finish 3rd goal, Esteve taken out by Richarlisons hand, CJ normally covers in that situation. We’ve ripped out 2/3s of 2 cen...

I hope we do really have a go at teams when it's the right time to do so,, and just not sit back all the time. I think we've got some genuine pace in the team this season, especially out wide and we can cause problems to Spurs if we have that belief. Of course, Premier League teams are World class o...

Personally, I don't know Jota or his family, as I don't know the King of his, so I'd prefer Liverpool to grieve inside their own club, and not to bother with National Anthems in the 21st century..

Just got back from the final and was lucky enough to be a hospitality guest. Fair play to Burnley CC, they put on a incredibly well organised event.

A fair result in a rollercoaster of a series.

One thing this series has highlighted though, is that there really are very very few quality spinners left in World cricket.

Bowled too short for most of the day too..it looks good for the cameras when the ball is whizzing past the outside edge, but that generally means you're not bowling full enough.

You want the little nicks, not the extravagant movement and swinging once it's gone past the bat..

Andreshotboots

We make flat pitches now in England for some reason - may be it's so that it isn't a total shock when we play overseas, but I can't quite understand why we keep preparing them. I also think there is a total lack of World class bowlers about. Yes Bumrah is quality, but he's not 95 mph plus liike Bre...

Are they creating pitches to last 5 days for the revenue?

A very good point and something I raised a few years ago. 2/3 day tests certainly don't suit the ECB, or the Test venues in terms of revenue for sure.

The oval is an absolute road also. The last county championship game at the Oval saw Surrey score 820-9 the third highest ever score in this country. Wouldn’t be surprised if it’s another draw. Can't see England wanting to change that either being 2-1 up. People might suggest Stokes mindset will wa...

First wicket of the day, really good catch by Brook off Archer to get Jadeja.

That's a superb catch as the cameras never do justice as to how fast that ball is actually moving..
