    True, good point. I'd forgotten that he'd deputied there.

    No real surprises there. Fuchs or Chilwell, either or. You could make a case either way. If you're looking for something, you might ask about the lack of a cb on the bench. Or maybe wonder if Nacho has done the mother of all turds in Clodagh's car.

    New Contract Hamza Choudhury

    @Brown Nose - you know when you've been Hamza-ed! Admin Jeff took no prisoners, went full-blooded into the challenge. Will he now yellow card himself? Or was the ball there to be won? Who knows? Stay tuned for then next exciting installment. BTW, Hamza played at full back? I don't recall. I...

    New Contract Hamza Choudhury

    I have similar concerns. But I don't believe he's a natural hatchet man and he is young enough to learn to manage his enthusiasm... I hope.

    Pre Match Leicester vs Bournemouth

    Our games with them have been testy affairs in the past. Consequently, I've developed an attitude that expects nothing. I'm greatly relieved if we manage not to get beaten and all our players coming away unscathed. They're not quite bogey team status but there's definitely something about them...

    Buying foreign currency

    For me, depends on how long you're going for any how much cash you think you'll need. For some overseas visits, I'm quite happy to use, for conveniences sake, my UK sterling debit card both across the counter and in ATMs, but then I have a popular high street building society account who don't...

    The Ashes

    It is a pretty good card to have up your sleeve though. True enough, it's maybe 'not cricket' and does overlook the fact the England were otherwise very poor*, but take nothing away from Stokes. That was a stellar performance (and probably a stella one afterwards!) *Notable exclusion being...

    Premier League 2019/20

    I read some btl suggestions (beeb I think) for Kane to be dropped. I smiled. Not because I think he ought be (I don't watch Spurs so how could I know?) but because these sorts of things show the kind of disatisfaction that creeps in at any club with some fans. Some of our fans have called for...

    Justified, absolutely. I'm not being critical in the slightest. I was simply looking at the other side of the coin. As I remarked earlier, it made for a backs to the wall, nervy finish. The sort of thing we almost made our trademark a number of seasons ago.

    Agreed. There's the old adage (perhaps from the NFL) the best defence is a good offence. Admittedly, SHU were slinging the crosses into the box, and Soyuncu was being beaten in the air, so I could understand the desire to stiffen the back line but I did think Rodgers wasn't perhaps sending the...

    Pre Match Newcastle v Leicester - League Cup

    I'd imagine Madison will be on the bench, used only if needed. More game time for Praet. Vardy rested (on the bench) for Nacho. Gray to start. Justin, yes, can see that. Mendy to start? Fuchs or Chilwell will be an interesting one, and difficult to read anything into either way; Fuchs has been...

    It was tough game for him today. He's good with the ball at his feet, and got some good tackles and interventions in but he struggles against big and physical players. Cags is not actually that big, sure he's not titchy but he will get beaten in the air and will get out-muscled. He should...

    I thought both he and Tielemans worked hard, not collecting the accolades of Madddison but being nonetheless part of the team effort. Praet tired, perhaps that was to be expected, but he's clearly a talented player, reads the game well and a damned good singing. He's a good passer of the ball...

    What talented youngsters we have. That was just a wee bit special from Barnes, Maddison was regal and Choudhury a trooper. Nervy last 20 was just like old times. Pleased, I am.

    Confirmed Transfer Adrien Silva loaned to Monaco

    He and Slim can form a #hateFoxes club at Monaco. They'll be so happy. Nah, I wish him well. Undoubtedly a talented player but too slow to really cut it with us, or probably in the Prem. Shame they've not bought him but as least (some of/ most of) his wages are off our books,

    Yep, we've decent players in most positions. We don't seem to agree on who or where though. After reading through all the opinions, if I cobbled together all the negative views of individual players into one review then it'd seem we're a shit team. And we most definately aren't.

    Let's not forget Chelsea's part in the difference between the 1st and 2nd half. They started all guns blazing (a good tactic against notoriously slow starters) We got blitzed and were hanging on, lucky to be only 1 goal behind after 20 minutes. But Chelsea couldn't maintain that high line...

    Cracking game, really enjoyed it, could have gone either way. In their own way, Chelsea determined the flow. Either by being pressing and causing us problems, or by sitting off and giving us space. You can't play their high tempo game for the full 90, and when they back off there are holes to...
