Peterborough: https://www.theposh.com/news/official-club-statement-changes-emirates-fa-cup-format Peterborough United Football Club are dismayed at the decision taken by the FA and the Premier League to change the format of the Emirates FA Cup, including the confirmation that replays will be...

Tranmere: https://www.tranmererovers.co.uk/news/2024/april/club-statement-fa-cup-replays/ Tranmere Rovers condemn the disgraceful decision taken by The FA and the Premier League to change the format of the FA Cup, including the scrapping of replays. There was no consultation with Football...

I think this is right. Choudhury is a massive downgrade, but I do think we should be fair - he's far better than I expected him to be at the start of the season and the dawn of the new system. Iheanacho is better at tieing in the central midfield, so that support will be needed if the Shepshed...

It's not just you Brown Nose, but this is why football is broken. To many people following clubs not at the top table, nor ever likely to be, looking out for their club rather than for the whole system of clubs below them that put their club in the position it holds

And as a result of this, did a now-dead friend give you a couple of cars without bothering to do any paperwork?

I'm heartened by the statements I've seen put out by several EFL clubs being very forthright in their oppossition to this - with the rebellion apparently being led by Tranmere, whose chairman used to be chair of the FA. The changes are all terrible and will only benefit the top 5 (and...

Drink 13 pints, and you'll see allsorts

Pep?

I do like Dominic Wells, but sometimes he does go on a bit

This is the only part of GUAW's post I'd disagree with. He may well have mental health issues, they probably would be worsened by the situation he's in, and however much this is his own doing he should be supported in that regard. That said, he's not a great commentator even by the standard of...

Brilliant news, the bloody-handed oil barons win it again.

Spurs truly are the media's favourite team, almost glad to see it's no different in the women's game

Think we needed the final whistle there. Kop kept us in it but it was all Spurs after their goal. I'd ring make all three subs and put some energy back into the team - hopefully the adrenlin shot that the Spurs players and crowd got from their goal will also have died down too

This is weird. Of the 27 points available to the top three teams in their last three matches, they've collectively taken 6. That's not much better than Rotherham have done across the season. Meanwhile, Southampton, who really should have been consiged to the play-offs last month, now have it...
