Dyche is exactly what they need and should appointed several years ago - they'll be top ten next year

It's also the same formation and almost the same line up as last time against Southampton. Can you remember how that game went?!?!?!?!?

Their manager seems to have built a team that only 'goes for it', which I think will play into our hands - as it did in the match at St Mary's.

I think this will suit us. Look back at the match we played at St Mary's earlier in the season, they were too open and we put four past them. Add to that they've got a couple of important players out injured, while we seem to have a clean bill of health. A draw would also be a perfectly decent...

Boro making Leeds look pretty ordinary

Very likely we'll have a situation where a point will suit both teams perfectly well though. Good opportunity for a 90-minute afternoon nap at the KP, followed by a promotion party

Did they change from Kookabura to Dukes in the innings break or something?

I'm told that wheny they were launched, there was a Smokey Bacon flavour Monster Munch. Yet another thing which the Boomers had the best of and then ruined for the rest of us

4 points clear with 9 to play for. This match was so important

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

Journalists, yes even crap journalists on crap local radio stations, operate on trust. Listeners should be able to take what Stringer says without thinking about why he's saying that apart from it being a reasonable opinion - the example of Lineker is fine, as we all know that he is paid to...

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...

I did think that, when Maresca was appointed and started to talk about what he wanted to do, that Soumare would fit in as one of his number 8s (and never imagined that Ndidi would!)

Two of the North West's finest shitholes, nobody can be blamed for mixing them up

Maybe everyone thinks their finances would be better if they went through the playoffs...

You definately want a round peg if you're interested enough to give it a first try.

If they're the same at home, I bet they're both delighted to have him out of the house

I'm watching Tags and Elliott, you don't know how good you've got it...

Obviously, he'd have made sure nobody snapped their kneestrings six months before he joined the club

What do people actually want? Some say they want less money in the game, that players are too well paid, others that what some clubs pay then distorts the rest of the market pushing smaller clubs out of business, some don't care about salaries but are bothered that it's usually the same clubs...

...assuming we win the play-offs

At least that would be fun

He was right, that has been a bit of a weight around their necks in some ways (not that the fans would have it any other way, and rightly so) - I wonder if a few years down the line a 21st centure Joe Kinnear will say the same about our club's greatest achievement?

Happy for the entire season to be now rained off ;-)

There was something like that when he was managing Newcastle, and I think put paid to his career. He was also diagnosed with dementia more recently

Charlton in 4th, and eventual playoff winners, got 88 points - must have been a hell of a season!

They second string back four certainly made the case for Harry Maguire

If we've broken the rules, by all means throw the book at us. But do Man City and Chealsea first
