Beating Plymouth 2-1 under Waddle. Going back to the 4th division again would have been grim.

Horrific news of another terrorist attack on the city of Manchester.

Nobody is safe anywhere anymore.

Crazy times

It's a terrible event, but that's not true. It's safer now than it's been for a long time, statistically.

NottsClaret

I don't mind Wilder, he's much more of a knob when he wins than loses. But his behaviour is getting more erratic maybe. Getting smashed with the fans when they beat Wednesday, his meltdown at Plymouth and now this. He didn't used to be like this when he first did well, seems angry all the time now.

NottsClaret

I can see how looking back on, say, Coyle's time with us can get the emotions going and wildly divide opinion. But Cotterill is like Howe for me.. fine, did ok. It's a struggle to summon up much more feeling than that.

They can do whatever they want. Anyway, well done ladies, good to see the improvement being made there.

It's those late 90s, early 2000's ones that probably make it feel worse. Since they were bought by Abu Dhabi, I'd imagine a lot of clubs have a similar record to ours, certainly since Guardiola arrived there. The George Boyd winner is a favourite memory, and the 1-1 draw against one of the peak Man ...

At lower league grounds walls close to the pitch are very common and last year or year before I seem to recall a similar incident, thankfully not fatal. Yes, happened at Bath City a couple of years ago, lad ended up in a coma but luckily pulled through. I know we live in a ‘health and safety gone m...

Pleased he's doing well. He'll always be synonymous with a perfect sunny afternoon at the Turf against that lot.

NottsClaret

I know it’s defeatist and everything, but I try not to think about this fixture, let alone attend it anymore. Looking forward to Villa already.

NottsClaret

It'll happen again this season with them, they've not spent owt on that dump for years. They should be relegated down to a level more befitting their pitch. I see Chorley finished their game on the same day, so anywhere below them will do.

NottsClaret

There’s never been a doubt Tresor has talent , but a cute 15 min cameo against a knackered div 1 defence, showing incredible selfishness not passing with an impossible angle , giving the ball away etc hardly shows the 2nd coming . However he appears clearly very capable at this level IF he can get ...

I'm fine with all this, everyone loves an LED display. It's going to make zero difference to my 'matchday experience' but it won't detract from it. I do kind of like how we're sticking so many shiny things on top of our fairly knackered old stadium. While it's true you can't polish a turd, you can c...

I think it would be good if the football club improved their offering to tempt people away from other establishments on matchday - such as the cricket club - rather than try to make it more difficult to use these traditional alternatives and hope fans therefore spend more money at the ground. It’s p...

You can't recreate those last 10-15 minutes now anyway. There'll be different players available through injury or suspension. Obviously the conditions will be very different. Blackburn won't be holding on after playing 80 minutes. Either leave it at 1-0 - although Ipswich would have a strong case fo...

I’ve not watched MotD for a few years now, it’s not really necessary anymore.

I went to Leeds v Wigan a few years ago, an entertaining evening and a pleasant atmosphere. No interest in who won but Rugby League is easy to follow and pick up. Never watched the public schoolboy code.

NottsClaret

That drum is bewildering. Seems to kill any atmosphere, nobody sings along to it. Just really irritating for anyone there or watching.

I saw Shearer play for England in the mid 90s so being honest, it’s probably him. Just to throw a different name in the hat, and I know he was on his way to retirement at the time, but I still think Samuel Eto was absolutely class for Everton in that one match at the Turf, you could see he’d been ri...

Cheers, forgot about this. On open sale now

You wonder how keen Prem clubs are on helping to stop this. They're selling memberships on the back of it, and getting high spending tourists into their grounds to replace 'legacy' fans. As a rule, they don't tend to put huge amounts of effort into stuff that'll reduce their revenue.

NottsClaret

Must be some sort of windup I have to say, that was my first thought. Setting your cruise control to 8mph above the speed limit, and then wondering why you have a speeding ticket. And no car driver has been fined for doing 70mph on a motorway, only for using the wrong lane consistently. That's not ...

Embarrassing for the owners but better to swallow your pride and make the right decision now.

Mushrooms are the work of the devil It’s incredible humans persisted with eating those in the past, not knowing if you’d get a nutritious snack, see the meaning of life in a mind bending vision, or have your liver dissolve and die a horrific death. For me, the taste wouldn’t have justified the risk...

Hell of an achievement to be the worst team in Sheffield when the other one is a bankrupt u21 side.

The only people buying half and half scarves are harmless tourists, everyone knows that. If they really wanted to dissuade away fans from going in the home end they should have stayed at Upton Park.

NottsClaret

It doesn't seem that outlandish. A tourist in the UK wanting to see a Premier League match, especially featuring Liverpool, will pay well over the odds. You can get a ticket for any game, El Classico, the Old Firm.. if you're willing to pay. The club won't mind too much, they've sold the membership ...

Good on him, hope he and his family have a great time out there.

Some real pettiness on here, for a guy who played nearly 200 games for us, was hardly ever injured, never kicked up a fuss and helped get us promoted twice.

NottsClaret

This could have serious implications for Chelsea, in 2057.

Started for Brazil last night in their 1-0 loss away to Bolivia. Massive congratulations to the guy but what a fall from grace for the country of Cafu and Dani Alves. Let's have them at the World Cup! Isn't it Bolivia who have a ridiculously good home record, because they play so far above sea leve...

This is the St Pauli forum- you'll have to translate it but they have a thread on him: some interesting views https://www.stpauli-forum.de/viewtopic.php?t=89457&start=210 What I gleaned from that, is that even after running through a very rudimentary Google translate, the German forum is disappoint...

It's all for nerds who've never even played on the park on a Sunday but can give you the xG progressive pivot stats for a 'number 6' in the Albanian 2nd division. Funnier than ever now, when the top sides are launching long throws into the mixer again and playing for corners. No doubt there's some n...

£500k is great business for Burnley. Good luck to the kid, but being a 'star' at 14 is still a long way from even making it as a pro at any level. As mentioned, John Cofie went for £1m and was never heard of again. Jamie Vardy was released into non-league at 16 by Wednesday's youth set up. Man City ...

Kevin 'Rooster' Russel's was definitely the funniest.

It never crosses my mind to watch live, terrestrial tv anymore, other than maybe the snooker once a year. There’s so much great stuff being made elsewhere, it seems crazy to sit down to watch some cringy drama or reality dross. It’s had its day. It’s nice to reminisce about everyone watching the sam...

I was born in '76, and also failed to receive England recognition, but if nobody can top the 2nd division of the Hyndburn Memorial Sunday League then I'm claiming to be the greatest footballer of my year.

A dislocated shoulder is very painful and a nasty injury. But we can’t be abandoning games for that. Wealdstone need hammering for this, or it’s a very dangerous precedent.

We were in Italy this summer, around Verona. It's every bit as mint as you'd expect it to be, and way less expensive than we feared. Miles better value than UK. Nice people everywhere we went too.

Seems pretty joyless supporting West Ham (Conference League aside, that looked fun regardless of the standard). Honestly, I’d call it a day if I had to trek to an athletics bowl on some retail / industrial park. Was everything they’ve lost worth it, to be where they are now?

Not sure about our tough start. Sunderland are still one of the favourites for relegation. Man United are still crap. Spurs finished near the bottom last season and lost at home to Bournemouth. There's loads of mid table sides better than those three. Palace, Bournemouth, Brighton, Fulham.. We need ...

It's easier not to post anything at all on this topic, and I probably shouldn't. Obviously this is a tragedy and must be a horrendous time for the young man's family. However, I'm with CT on this.

That run of pinging it in the top corner was mad. We were right behind the one at Rotherham, just felt inevitable for a while there.

Bad stage of your career to start bench warming. Henderson will be well ahead of him if he plays for Palace every week this season.

Watched 3 minutes on YouTube. This lad is better than peak Kante and will win us the league in the next year or so.

If that’s a reason to chalk off a goal, nobody will ever score again. How many years have we had VAR now? That’s as bad as it’s ever been. Killing the game at that level.

NottsClaret

Fair do’s, it’s a tidy finish. Still a way from eating humble pie just yet but it’d be great if he keeps it up.

Genuinely thought this lad was absolute bobbins so would love to be wrong.

Nice how their respective summer’s panned out. Him under investigation for a being a bitter, racist loser at 59. Her playing brilliantly in the final as England women won another major tournament.

You’d think he’d thrive in a side dominating possession somewhere. But it’s a big ask to put him in a side having to compete at their limits physically, every single game for 90+ minutes just to have a chance of getting something. You can see his quality but we’re not going to be in the position of ...

Newcastle really ill disciplined tonight. Leave that emotion to fans and just play the game. Too late now like.

All hypothetical at the moment, but whereas I’m sure a new stadium near the M65 would do well and increase revenue streams for an ownership group somewhere.. it’d be the end of me going. Which obviously isn’t a reason not to do it, a low spending legacy fan not attending is a bonus, not a reason aga...
