Its good there's another decent side in the league which will hopefully stop Hollywood FC going up. And stop Reading FC too. Really doesn't help us having Bolton in L1 next year. Yeah, I’m more bothered about Reading than Ryan Reynolds Agreed. Just need Reading to be consistent and turn up in 46 le...
The last gift of the Dai era. A local rival we spent two decades above of in the football pyramid getting promoted to the division above us. Still time for a McAteer response. Be :lol: if Bolton do another 94/95 recovery. From Reading's perspective both teams are inconsistent garbage so, for next s...
FIFA now trialling a new approach where each team gets 2 VAR challenges and there is no VAR involvement until one of the teams uses a VAR challenge :| So one team will use a challenge as quickly as possible so VAR starts getting involved asap and presumably saves them having to use the second chall...
Presumably they believe they ‘deserve’ to be in the PL
Probably more to do with his "Stam approach" to a play off plus Norwich have never looked all that good this season, they're poor defensively and didn't play to their strengths often enough.
got to ask, Vic: Liverpool or RFC? It is a long story that I took the trouble to post once on here before. Because the two clubs were always in different divisions any question of split loyalty never arose but on the night of March 11th 1970 I had travelled down to Southampton for a job interview ,...
Like many, not a fan of Leeds but actually glad they’ve trounced Norwich. The lack of any intent to win the first leg from them was really poor and it’s all they deserve Not the first time the Norwich manager has set up his team like this in a playoff campaign mind. Just a shame the manager he came...
Is there a points sanction for entering administration while in the PL? If so I presume Everton fans will have more "unfairness" to whine about next season. Wasn’t there some rumour that Everton were going to try going into administration now to avoid the points deduction next season beca...
Quite simply, if it's to be used, VAR should only be used to draw the referee's attention to things they haven't seen and NOT get involved with things that they have seen. If a referee wants to see something again then he should be at liberty to ask to do so at the next break in play. Why can't all ...

In summary then. A deal has been agreed in principle (https://www.footballinsider247.com/reading-takeover-deal-agreed-in-principle-after-breakthrough-sources/), it's just the owner's tests to be passed and then we can hopefully all get back to some sense of being a normal league club again. IF it do...
PL clubs to vote next month on whether to scrap VAR or not get rid, I don't enjoy celebrating 'goals' (i.e. the thing we're there for) any more Please please please please please please! Much prefer to have the old days of normal refereeing and human error than the incompetent cr@p we get now and s...
The agent's been suspended for 6 months so it Olise moves this summer, he's kind of oxf*rd himself. Could be bad indeed for him, grapevine suggest that Liverpool may well be plotting a move to hijack the "Olise to United" rumour. So a possible bidding war is the last thing he'll want if t...
No respect for the guy. Karacan’s injury (which massively hobbled his career) was not a coincidence. Tetek’s injury (which seems to have effectively ended his career) was not a coincidence. He was a thug of a manager who had no respect for opposing players or officials. That’s the real Warnock, not...
The FA really don't help themselves do they? 5 years for this to be sorted plus, it seems, precedents have been much less harsh. Question has to be asked though, how did they go down this route in the first place, they must have known it's illegal. Would the agent concerned also face some form of pu...
