I think this should be in honour of Spades.

Something like qpr versus Spades Mighty Clarets

Opening post giving a mention etc

Her Maj deserves any mentions. One of our major contributors over the years and never fell out with anybody, that takes some doing on here.
Sadly won’t be on tomorrow, going up to Dublin for the CycloX World Cup. Chance to see Matthieu Van Der Poel and Tom Pidcock up close.

Spades definitely deserves a mention on the match thread if possible yes.

Back to what really gets the heart racing. Twine is definitely on the coach down - exciting!

Doubt Twine will start, but if he even features off the bench for a few minutes that would be a plus.

Under stand heating for all the Travelling Clarets Fans would be a requirement too 😉

Safe journey all those travelling to Loftus Road and good luck with getting a decent view to those poor Clarets stuck behind one of the many obstructions within the stand. Not for me anymore that dump of a ground!

I didn't mean this thread! It was asking for the Q.
I will start a proper one, given that it seems to be a positive response.😁

Imagine Spades would have quite liked you to do the Match Thread, Ian. 8-)

Done Buxton with title reflecting Spades and her understanding. A once only retro title.

It would be helpful to let this one slip down the page, to avoid confusion.

Any snow in London? I live an hour away and woke up to thick blanket and still snowing (not forecast either for that time). I assume game isn't at risk.

No snow in Shepherd’s Bush at the moment.

Today I wouldn’t mind some football as good as we saw in the run up to the first goal in this game…

Sadly, the board lost its Christmas spirit and removed the special Spades thread. A real, real shame.

Sorry Spades. Here's to you. Up the Clarets.

JBG starts, Benson, Churlinov, Twine on the bench. Jay back in.

That’s an attacking bench, twine and churlinov are back, and only one defender!

Roberts not done much training since returning from World Cup so wasn't expected to feature. Dervisoglu apparently off to Fenerbache when the window opens.

Only to be expected ... hasn't really featured (which is a shame the lads a goal poacher 🙂) but his parent club rightly want players they send out on loan to get game time.

Maybe Gyokeres in to replace him 🤔

Great decision to bring Benson on from the bench. All teams will tire after 60/70 minutes until they’re back up to full fitness. To have him bring him on will be a big worry for them.

Disappointing as there looks a great player in there, but understandable.

So our training games were Huddersfield, won 1-0 (Cork) and Twine/Churlinov both played 45 minutes, and WBA where we played mainly U21’s and lost 3-1 (Barnes). Both Churlinov and Twine featured but not sure how much time they got.

Let’s hope that the prep pays off.

It may have been more respectful to not have put a homophobic slur in the thread title. Just a thought.

That's the point. Riley. The word was known by Spades to rightly mean powder variety. Lightweight opposition.
