On the theme of sporting injuries, I moved on from football as my body just kept breaking down even playing socially in a semi decent game. Very frustrating. Started climbing and more specifically bouldering. Was great. Until I was completing a more different climb with a last move which was...

As others have said how great a player Mario is for us. He demonstrates how important it is to sign players at the right time for both you and the club. You cannot just sign young players, you a good variety. Mario himself has said how he has only really matured as a player later on and...

My tongue is firmly in my cheek, I know it wouldn’t and no it wouldn’t be fair to Brighton. But just an alternative proposal

I actually think rather than demoting those officials and putting them to some poor suffering L1 fixture. Give us them again, next game at home: they would be bricking it to such a extent the only way that is working is in our favour and they would learn that lesson a lot quicker from hearing...

Yep in their new stadium there is a load of restricted view seats. The waiting list for this is already long and plenty of full view seats to waiting to be claimed

I struggle with all of the he’s a great leader/captain. He seems like a good chap. But captain, I ain’t having this, he is a cheerleader, happy clapper. Frankly when things going well he speaks a good game and is very presentable. A leader is someone thought who negotiates the challenges, pulls...

Lube as we are taking a shafting all the time (to be fair you could get that with the Amazon voucher)

I like Warnock, he plays up the cartoon character of himself but he does it for a purpose. I think he is more understanding and perspective of the game then people give him credit for. Granted he has a certain style of play. At numerous moments in our recent (last 20 years) past he would have...

What I was pleased to hear was about how he empathised the importance of having a confidence in a process, trusting this, recognising it will not always work out but the process is more important than any one outcome and result and will lead to a greater conclusion, eventually. It appeared there...

Everton as a team are in a far worse position than I think most people realise. Truly clueless with the ball and only moderately better without, but few exceptions they are not very good. Pickford kept them up last season and frankly had given them a fighting chance this season. I am not sure...

Very happy with this. If he can give us 18 months that would be great. Experience, communication, leadership. The guys a decent player but he will improve those around him. You can have the best coaches but you learn and develop most from your peers. It’s not the exciting signing but it’s the...

For me he was really hindered by multiple aspects, being played as a 10, he needs to be played deeper. This was proven as per his role in setting up RAN against Everton, picking the ball carrying it and driving forwards. He needs to be played in that deeper position along with neves and bouba...

It’s not just about being innocent, though he has clearly been charged and not found guilty. However the FA, is rightly so harsh on such issues owing to integrity of the game. Reputationally this is a strange move to allow him to play. It questions the integrity of future games and also the...

I think the days of enforcer are gone in the top devisions. I would also say, because someone’s slight doesn’t mean they can’t stick one on someone. Any way neves can put on in. What need is that engine to get around

There was an article the athletic and not a single mention of max, either in the choices by journo’s or in the blerb or comments. Found it quite telling. Also of note coady not in any of the journo’s squad’s, if they took a specialist centre of a 3 it was dier, which I agree with. Struggle to...
