Just put in a WhatsApp group, has there ever been a better time to play man United at old Trafford? They might be a bit of a wounded animal but this has surely got to be one of the best time to play them in recent times. We should go there confident we can get a result. As you said keep it tight and...

MrTechno

Always interesting to see the same events from another perspective. My view is, on the ‘best team’ debate I have to say there was absolutely nothing in it. You have to look at the totality of the season and the table rarely lies. Clearly we were the best 2 teams and Sheffield the 3rd best, but well...

MrTechno

I need to get back to doing this myself, unfortunately having two young kids it’s been difficult to do it. All good advice on here, the main thing is as others have said sterilising. It looks like in the kit you’ve got you’ve got some steriliser so all good there. As you go you’ll develop processes ...

At the ripe old age of 45 back in 2007 I gave up my accountancy job which I’d been in since leaving school to become a self employed foreign student organiser. Best move I ever made as it was a totally different life style - full on 24/7 for maybe 8 months of the year and then 4 months of free time...

Interesting one this Has anyone on here decided they fancied a career change at 40 or older - going into or learning a trade Been considering it for a bit now, but it's taking the leap when your comfy in a job Always been interested in learning more - electrician, plumber etc instead of an office j...

Incredible scenes from the River / Mineiro semi final

Vitinho has the chance to get to the final tomorrow 00:30, 5 - 0 up after he first leg

I normally don’t contribute to much to this board unless it’s about the team but I thought I’d add my view on this. My 7 yr old has SEN needs. In the first few months he went to school used to wear ear defenders at school, slowly but surely he removed them and became more confident. He used to be on...

Flemming takes the window from a 4/10 to a 7/10 for me. That '10' / second striker position was a gaping hole. Positives: - Added some much-needed experience/leadership material and a bit of steel. - Brought some good characters and decent lads to the club. - Got rid of most of the wantaways/dead w...

MrTechno

Gutted to see him go but hopefully it’ll mean we’ll get rid of the betting sponsor

I was under the impression that we needed to have 7 homegrown players in our match-day squad and could only count 6 for this one - Roberts, O’Shea, Cullen, Brownhill, Rodriguez and Egan-Riley. Can somebody clarify what the actual ruling is with this please?

McNally?

Hello I'm an Ipswich Town fan who writes a blog on the EFL. I've written a longer-than-expected two part article previewing and predicting the Championship this season. Unsurprisingly, I think Burnley will do well but I'm aware I may have put them slightly lower than many of you will have done so l...

Finally got it on, phew

MrTechno

On Burnley: “ From the first moment I walked into the training ground at Burnley…I knew it was the right club for me and I have loved every moment since. "The relationships I have with Alan, JJ and all the people at the club, in every department, made my time at Burnley special and leaving a truly d...

MrTechno

Remember when we signed him thinking we’d got a really good player on our hands but never worked out. Think it was really difficult for him to dislodge Mee and Tarks and then perhaps injuries have also played a part. He’s massively declined though, strange how at one point there was him, Keane and A...

MrTechno

Not sure on Lampard at all, think he’s been really poor so far, not sure what football he plays, his teams seem to lack identity. Blames players when things go wrong and learnt from an excellent manager who has now become outdated. Not sure his links will be that useful as they’ll be loans and looke...

MrTechno

Player of the season, easily

MrTechno

Really liked him when he was at Dortmund and first came over but his seemingly constant whinging has made me dislike him somewhat. That being said he’s been a fantastic manager and the standard of the league will likely be weaker without him - depending on how long Pep stays then city will dominate ...

MrTechno

Thought we were superb second half and looked every inch a premier league side. Hope this bodes well for the future, it’ll be very difficult but we’ve given ourselves a glimmer of hope. Special shout outs to Brownhill who bar Everton has put in some smashing performances lately, “he’s here he’s ther...

It was a good game

Bloody top lad

MrTechno

In the ebb and flow of this season, a tapestry of frustration unfolds, the team often adrift in moments of uncertainty. The aftermath of defeat casts shadows of unbearable weight, weaving a tapestry of misery and despair within the recesses of the mind, a stark departure from the triumphs of the pre...

Anticipatory: a mixture of excitement but also anxiousness it could go wrong

Love this thread, so brilliant to see. Well done Jack for sorting this out for people. Hope all those that are have a great time in Belgium and enjoy the game.

MrTechno

Sounds belting, have a good time and thanks for the relay.

Did anyone see Al Dakhil or Tresor play? Scouting report please… Ameen didn’t have a lot to do but the most pleasing thing about it was that he was barking instructions at the other players. To have that confidence on your debut at such a young age is fantastic. Tresor didn’t have a lot of time to ...

MrTechno

Vinnie. Makes it all the more incredible as to what he’s achieved at 37 years old. Amazing.

MrTechno

I'm surprised Swansea at home and Norwich away are yet to be mentioned. Both games made a BIG statement to me. Swansea were in great form playing lovely football and Norwich early ish in the season was seen as a difficult place to go and one of the fancied teams. Yes agree, Swansea was the first ti...

MrTechno

I was really keen on runs and breaking records earlier on in the season, now that the points total looks beyond us once promotion and then the title is wrapped up it’s about next season. That means keeping some sort of momentum going but also integrating players a bit more, like foster and looking a...

MrTechno

If Kompany wants to keep BPF as backup keeper then he has to play yesterday. Thought Foster was fine yesterday and certainly no worse than Barnes.

MrTechno

I assume you’re using Juve as an example just because of their redesigned badge (which I like) and not including honesty in their list of qualities upon which they’ve furthered their brand? I’m defiantly not including Juve in terms of their honesty haha. That was in reference to some of our qualiti...

MrTechno

I think we could do with looking at a re-brand over the next year, if we haven’t started that process already (but I would say that given I work in brand design and teach graphic design). That doesn’t mean changing the badge - however that’s something I’d look at - but establishing a clear message t...

Loved how Warnock was cupping his ear to the CFS as soon as he came out the tunnel for the first time today. Absolutely fair play. I like him.

Yeah loved it, he’s a character and fair play to him.

MrTechno

Not quite at it tonight with passes going a miss, control letting players down or final balls not working. It seemed like it would be one of those games, however this side has shown various different forms and today it was ‘strong jaw’, we never let up, the commitment was fantastic and we got our re...

MrTechno

Thanks for posting and good luck with the writing. I was impressed with Ipswich when we played them, all the best.

MrTechno

He was good at the start of the season but recently he’s been even better, simply a wonderful footballer.

MrTechno

Think it’d be good to give a couple of the fringe players a run out but not switch it up too drastically so they get game time with the ‘first teamers’, as well as getting some mins in the legs of Vithino coming back from injury. I’d also like to see more on brownhill in a deeper role BPF Vithino ed...

“Although the transfer fee is undisclosed, it has been reported that it is the highest fee ever paid for a South African footballer, shattering the €3.6m Spurs paid Everton for Steven Pienaar in 2011. That report from ‘The South African’ suggests we’ve paid €7m with a further €3m in add ons to follo...

MrTechno

His quality going forward has been plain to see but over the last few weeks he’s defending has really come on. Great player.

MrTechno

Good luck to him. If he does well, chances of us getting our money back on him increase (Besiktas' option wasn't worth much to us - the option was in their favour so was basically a maximum purchase price and didn't guarantee us anything). If he doesn't go particularly well then we'll have him back...

MrTechno

Regarding championship transfer fees I think the highest are Watkins (just a bit under the £30 mill mark) and Benrahma (between £30 - £35 mill mark)

MrTechno

The main thing for me is that we get mins for twine, churlinov and possibly dervisoglu - if he’s seen as having a role to play in the coming season. Personally I’d go pretty strong to give them experience with playing with the main of the first team, with possibly only BPF and Taylor coming in.

What is Benson's injury?

Think he’s fine. Was walking around at the end and Kompany said he’d basically just run himself into the ground. Think he was taken off with an eye on Birmingham.

MrTechno

Love this thread. Well done JD

MrTechno

I truly think Twine will make such a difference. We win a ton of well placed free kicks and do naff all with them. You look at his goals last season and just think the joy he could have. Really hope the lad is fully fit and gets the chance - the spaces we make suit a player who fancies a long range...

MrTechno

A pulsating wk end of football ahead, with the return of the clarets on Sunday and the quarter final Saturday evening. At the start of the season VK talked about getting to the break in touch with the playoffs and then having the time to really get the message through, work with the players and have...

MrTechno

Great reliving the journey. Never thought we’d have done half of what we did under Dyche, what an incredible achievement and transformed the club beyond recognition. I remember the Hull game at home and thinking we’d appointed a dud, how wrong I was.

MrTechno

What a fantastic experience for him and as Zaltan has said will come back a better player for it - more experienced and likely to be motivated to get a starting birth for his national side.

MrTechno

Wrong mentality for me is that. You can't go through this league thinking some games will be easier than others. Pick your strongest possible side for every game. Use subs wisely but giving people a rest because "It's only Rotherham" is the wrong way to go about it. Yeah that’s definitely one way o...
