Didn't some Scottish team actually have a striker named A. Triallist? Seen to recall Jeff Stelling making a joke about it every time his name came up on the videoprinter.

Including that 2nd half v Chelsea that it 135+ minutes of absolute dross. 135+ minutes of being naïve, slow and ineffectual with barely a hint of why we belong in the Premier League. And, sadly, it is difficult to see how Vincent is going to turn it around, he just doesn't seem to have any plan B in...

All the 5 blocks with tickets on sale are down to just a few rows of seats available. Looking a, maybe, a couple of hundred seats left, and a few singles also.

Eustace is in the frame, apparently. Did well at Brum, sacked for no obvious cause.

The two best teams in the division, an excellent point away from home. Keeps us top of the league, though Newcastle could still go above us if they win their games in hand.

Unfortunately the problem with motorway pickups is that our estimated arrival time could vary quite a bit depending on traffic plus until the day and depending on traffic, we wouldn't be sure if we were going down M1 or M40.

Thanks anyhow, Leisure. Would have been a nice, if impractical, idea

Can you collect on the way down? Say from a motorway services? I live near Birmingham Airport and my son and grandkids live at Daventry (near Watford Gap Services)

It raises the profile for homeless charities at a time when the need for charitable assistance has, sadly, reached almost unheard levels. Of course, the participants in the event aren't going to be living as if they were totally homeless and without support (PS: most homeless people would have acces...

I’ve seen it many times but have no idea where it is. Always tickles me. As an ex-firefighter we were trained to go under the nearest rails. Those are for road use.

Jutkiewicz on the bench too- he's had a very decent spell at Brum- not far off 300 appearances incl the loan period (albeit latterly mostly off the bench) & over 60 goals. And many of those 60+ goals have been decisive ones. My Brum supporting mates at Walking Football reckon he has done a great jo...

I don't care if there is a "big club bias" in the decision to challenge the way VAR is invoked and determined in the Premier League. Teams small and small have been the victims of too many incorrect decisions and, if it affecting Liverpool is what it takes to move VAR towards a more European 'lighte...

I have reluctantly, this season, joined those who have friends and family members who are just friends with a season ticket and lots of points. It is the only way my son and grandkids can get to go to away games given how quickly they sell out. With them living in Northants it is usually easier to a...

One of the highlights for me is that, of the 11 changes to the starting line-up, apart from the obvious one of Jack Cork at CB the only one who didn't look ready to slot straight into Saturday's XI to play Newcastle was, sadly, Jay. It may be just a case of him needing some game time but I wonder ho...

I think it's fair to say that the result is beyond doubt.
The only question now is, which of the two other Manchester clubs we get in the next round?

Any 1 of Port Vale, Sutton, Mansfield or Peterborough would be nice in the next round or any giant killer.

Surely VAR checks every goal and presumably any possible serious incident such as the Foster red card. I have no objection to VAR checking these things as I thought that's why it was introduced. Before VAR we would moan about goals awarded when there was a handball that the officials hadn't seen. N...

youre right, but I guarantee Arsenal wont be ruined by VAR over the course of this season.
there is a bias against certain teams, and for others. It does not even itself out.

More like there is bias FOR certain teams, then there are crap refs and an even worse VAR system

Doesn't affect the stat. All the rest we have either been level or behind at half time.

To summarise, We had 1 senior (over 21 ears old) player who didn't make the 25 and the rules state that he must be brought into the 25 before you can add any free agents. So Churlinov will now be part of the 25.

Finished, good win.

If he jumps over the ball he is not interfering with play as the rules stand, Tella did it last year and, I think, Zaroury scored, which at the time I thought meant he was interfering but had it pointed out to me that it is not offside.

Makes it harder to watch knowing Sheff Utd are doing a better job taming City at home than we did even with their basket case of a club off the pitch.

More like City are being wasteful with their numerous chances unlike at the Turf.
