Sun reader? That level of insult is totally unwarranted.Champo? Urgh! Are you a Sun reader?

They could pay me £100 million a year and I probably couldn't score a penalty either.Benzema earns between £100 million and £200 million a year depending on which reports you believe.
But he still can’t score a penalty
There were a lot of fans questioning his team selection before the game .Looks like the Watford manager has guaranteed himself at least another week in charge.
No, I read the stars. I'm an astrologer and I foretell bad tidings to those named after a small, yappy dog.Champo? Urgh! Are you a Sun reader?
You mean the Jack Ruddy who was at Wolves when John Ruddy was?Never mind confusion between Matheuses and Gomeses; I found out today that there's another John (Jack) Ruddy, currently playing for Dulwich Hamlet (my local team — squeaked a win today after relegation to the 7th tier) and that he played for us between 2016 and 2019 — well, didn't actually play any games, unless he sneaked onto the pitch pretending to be the other Ruddy. Big John Ruddy's son is also called Jack and has a scholarship at Norwich City. Maybe all male Ruddys are required by law to be called John?!
Just watched it on catch up. Very frustrating. Kept fast forwarding it thinking they must be finished at Plymouth now. But no, another interview!WTF is ITV doing in their EFL highlights programme? In the first half of a 90 mins EFL highlights programme, I think they managed to cover only 3 games because they interviewed every man and his dog at Plymouth, where the programme was based. I read that they changed the format to better match fans wishes, but unless your team is involved at the game they have based the host at, I think you’re going to be frustrated!
Moved from another thread where I’d posted it in error when my phone was playing up last night.
Yep, got home early last night so put it on at 9, by 10 o’clock I’d only seen about three matches of highlights. And you couldn’t hear half of the interviews anyway because of the wind. Surely by now these TV shows have worked out that the more football the better?WTF is ITV doing in their EFL highlights programme?

My grandads name was John but always called jackIronically he is also called John, I've never understood why people named John are often called Jack?
He's had quite a few clubs since leaving us, he's played in Scotland, Northern Ireland and Spain as well as England
My dad, rest his soul, was called John. And in my whole life I never heard anyone call him that. Always Jack!My grandads name was John but always called jack
Crikey, so was mine. In fact it was donkeys years before I knew his name was John.My grandads name was John but always called jack
Barnsley entirely sticking their impressive Town Hall up the orifice of Port Vale.
My uncle Jack was actually a John, it's because he was the first born son and named after my grandad John to differentiate, think it happened a lot back in the day.Ironically he is also called John, I've never understood why people named John are often called Jack?

Or the Southampton 0-6.I watched this one. Weirdly the first two Barnsley goals were against the run of play. Vale looked a decent side.
Second half was very different and Barnsley went up a gear or two. Everything they hit in the second half went in, albeit with the assistance of some shocking defending from Vale.
All in all it brought back haunting memories of us getting tonked 5 nil at home to Barnsley in the early 90s.
Was in a couple of Stokie pubs last night and the supporters I spoke to were raving about Hoever (he scored again yesterday in their 4-1 win). Chiquinho didn't feature in the starting line up or was on the bench so maybe carrying a knock or still working on his match fitness.
Interesting that another one of their Portuguese players (Videgal) was also on the score sheet with a brace.
Maybe the Potters are following the successful Wolves blueprint.
USA v Sweden atm.Anyone watching Leicester v Coventry.
I am and I am prepared to bet that @Frank Lincoln is too!Anyone watching Leicester v Coventry.

I've lived in Coventry (actually on Highfield Road), Burbage (in between Leicester and Coventry) and Leicester. My impression is that Coventry see Villa as their first rivals and Leicester a very close second. Villa and Leicester don't seem to feel the same.I am and it’s average so far. Though with it being a local Derby both sides won’t want to lose this one.
Interesting to see iheanacho Daka not in leicesters XI

The East Midlands is weird because of the uneven rivalries. With Leicester seeing Forest and Derby as their main rivals and Forest and Derby seeing each other their main rivals with Leicester a distant second! I imagine the M69 rivalry will increase in importance this season though.
Some speculation that it’s a broken foot.Out with a foot injury and their manager has said they're not sure how long for but it will be multiple games.
Makes Micky Quinn look like a lightweight!Bit of a heavyweight clash today View attachment 36220
