Why on earth are we apologising for something that happened before even our great-grandfathers were alive? What is the flipping point? In 50 years time do we expect the 2050 generation of Germans to start apologising for WW1? The problem is that as soon as you apologise for something you're...

This is one of those absolute classic cases of "we must score first and preferably early". Wolves are going to sit in from minute 1. They will treat this the same as the Man City match. I hope their keeper has a similar afternoon to the cup match where he was directly at fault for 2 of our...

It's next to worthless; covers you for things like match postponement, I think personal cover is next to nothing. You won't get a refund, and the absolutley STUPID situation is that they won't resell your ticket = empty seat. Good luck with the op.

That was Ryan’s first game back after being away at the Asian Cup, in hindsight him returning and us going to crap might not have been a total coincidence……

That should have been 0-0 tonight, but Henderson is world class don’t you know………..

Gutted we’re not playing them sooner than mid December.

Why would Moyes go to Palace?

I had a great time, albeit too brief as train up and back same day, which was a bit of a slog. We all agreed that we're doing this one again and staying over next time.

Not for me, I'm struggling to think of a single goal Evan has scored liked that. He's VERY good at creating half a yard and getting a shot away very quickly, and normally very acurately. Running with the ball isn't a strength.

Yeah I need to pull you up on your last statement, LOTS of fans were talking about this at the game on Saturday, I heard no one hoping he would fail, or even getting on his back, it was all ‘supportive’ it’s just that we’re not blind. Connelly’s antics were no secret, there are no whispers about...

Yep +1 That goes for every single one of them though. I can’t think of any other team, present or past, where every single one of them are total twats, even Colwill now seems a complete prick. I include Palace teams in that too.

My view from row V in the clouds - we had a 33 yo striker and a 20 yo striker on the pitch; if I hadn’t known who they were then I’d have got them the wrong way around. Ferguson looked laboured throughout and I definitely wasn’t the only one who thought this going by comments around me.

Why are you 'sad'? He's still our player. We did the same with Mitoma, Caicedo, Adringa, etc. The difference here is that it's to another club in our division so its more in your face. He could be 'tearing up' Belguim div 1 and no one would bat an eyelid. He signed a new contract before...

It used to be that you couldn't touch the keeper in the 6 yard box, this was changed in 2006 as a way to try to stop numerous 'soft' free kicks. I'd like to see this rule reintroduced, however I'd like the keeper to be treated like any other player outside the 6 yard box. This would mean the...

I'm not sure Potter will ever be a head coach again. He made tens of millions from Chelsea. A career as a media pundit seems to be where he's headed. He doesn't come across as particularly passionate about it anymore, if indeed he ever was.

I've just read the club email re Newcastle. It's very Passive/Agressive in nature, a little uncalled for when they are communicating with the majority of their most loyal support (sorry customers). Have they stopped sending the 'travel/city info' email for away games now?

Both of their first choice CBs are still out though. Burn is a decent defender but we deffo can get at him, Rutter is the exact type of player that Burn could struggle against when he was with us. Trippier is also a doubt, I rate Livramento but he's not as influential as Trippier. Let's see...

Just seen who the ref is - Mr homer himself Peter f***ing Bankes. We're doomed.

A good friend of mine used to belong to the same flying club as this bloke. When the shocking news broke all she said about it was "I'm saddened but not surprised, he's a risk taker who has an arrogant streak, think Lord Flashart but lacking charisma" or words to that effect, coincidently we...

I've gone for a Desmond but hoping we can nick it. How both teams injuries are and player fatigue will be key to this one. E.g. Isak is back (typical) but how fit/sharp is he actually going to be, ditto Wilson. Did Joelinton go away with Brazil? I think we tend to do a bit better v Howe...
