Relatively ancient in this team, I think. England yoof as well. Think Furlong, who's just come off, has played for Paddies youngsters

He's played in the EFL Trophy. You can't buy that kind of experience

Wakely, I think

Think Weir is the only significant one (Wigan). Rushworth has been around non-league in Sussex and Yaarkshire a bit

Bit annoying to gift the best team in the division two penalties because of Coles-on-'lumo style fouls from corners.

Half-time. Going to recreate Phil Andrews and someone like David Hillier half-heartedly warming up while a bloke sells a subtly more detailed version of the team sheet for 50p, all to the echo of a portly scout in a club jacket ordering a coffee from the bar.

Liking how direct (while staying precise) we're being when we attack. Obviously decided not to play them at their own game. Maybe that's the back-up plan for certain games. We let WBA have more than half of the possession earlier this season. Although maybe that was just cos we were gash in the...

Rory Delap's son - whose middle name is also Rory - won the penalty from a delivery into the box. His dad'll be proud, if disappointed it wasn't a massive header past a traumatised goalkeeper from a scramble. Nmecha, who scored it, is Lukas's younger brother.

It is a pain in the derek that they don't have names on shirts. 1 Rushworth 2 Karbownik 3 Furlong 5 Dendoncker 6 Wakely 4 Weir 7 Cashman 8 Caicedo 10 Jenks 11 Spong 9 Wilson Can't decide whether I can be arsed to follow the whole thing but it is good to watch, as usual. Like the opposite of...

Molde have been canny in the UEL so far. They only lost to Arsenal in the group stage. Hoffenheim had 25 shots to their eight in the first leg - 12 on target - and were 3-1 up until the 70th minute (they went 2-0 ahead in the first half.) They were something like the fourth-highest shooters in...

It was one of those where news teams had committed to sending people and no-one knew how it would turn out. Think all the reporters were steeling themselves for the news story of the year, so there's been this residual drama even though he doesn't even appear to have been DUI. UK teams were...

Nah. There are mistakes and regrets and then there's publicly being mates with Trump when you're someone in his position. He has zero morals.

Doesn't look like they have them in stock immediately but give the Jog Shop a look: https://www.jogshoponline.co.uk/running-shoes-for-men.html They are magicians who would sort you out in ten minutes if you went in there. Might not be quite as accurate without them seeing your stride but could...

The only player on the pitch who'd ever scored against Palace, I think. Apart from Lallana, who'd scored twice in a few months against them years ago but didn't show any sign of doing so again when he had the chance. Ali now needs to play for something like 20 minutes against West Brom if he's...

He always looks a bit unwell. Worry about his intensity. Was interesting watching him dissect the performance. He seemed to suggest that Potter didn't have a plan but had finally thrown men forward at the expense of midfield creativity in the last ten (apologies if this has been covered in the...

Ha. Chris is good mates with a mate of mine, watched Rotherham on the terrace at Crawley with him and his lad once. He loves it and can talk football for days :smile:

It's a good initiative. Glad they've partnered with Mind. I still reckon they should work with ManKind Project. It's been frequently evident from these kind of schemes in the past that clubs are good at encouraging fans around mental health - relatively easy to have a visible campaign telling...

Can't remember who it was now but exactly one of our players wore black boots against Villa. Was pathetically elated. Knight whoever it was

All a bit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eBJ7yp8QzbI

Palace away years ago. All I remember is that they looked at my pathetic face halfway through and nearly lost heart, which seemed a bit of a shame somehow. I was quite involved with Brighton ABC at the time and was smashed anyway, so I wasn't all that bothered. On reflection it was relatively...
