Not even sure they were ever a big club. They have spent more seasons outside the top flight in their history, than in it. ( 61 outside...56 in top flight ) Outside of the Clough era ( 1975 to 1993 ) when everyone remembers two European Cups, a League title and four League cups, they won ONE FA...

No...it won't be. At this stage in 2016, Trump had 16% of the projected vote and was 11/2 against with the bookies. Hilary Clinton had 84% of the projected vote and was 1/5 on to win. Now, Trump is 2/1 against but narrowing ( a few days ago he was 9/4 ) and Biden is 1/2 on. Interestingly, more...

Liverpool has always been a grubby football club, with very little class. Shame that the Merseyside club with real class and dignity has been overshadowed by their down-market neighbours. They couldn't wait to get their hands on American money ( twice ) and now, surprise, surprise, here we are...

We have been accepting lower animal welfare standards from certain members of the EU for years, to the detriment of our own agricultural/farming industry. Intensive pig rearing was allowed to flourish in Northern Holland to such an extent that Dutch imports formed 80-90% of the bacon going to...

I remember an Irish lady who used to score at Staplefield. She would call out the details when a wicket fell...." terty tree fer tree, der last man tree "

Remember scoring at Broadbridge Heath as a very young lad. To the side of the clubhouse ( well....shack! ) was a primitive toilet, made out of sheets of corrugated iron. One player smote a six which came directly down on top of this. The roof promptly caved in, followed by the back and sides...

Would you slip in quietly at the back or go straight to the front and try and find an available slot?

MOD EDIT - potentially libellous comment removed Surely the American people deserve a third option....." None of the above " Never in history have two more unsuitable candidates run for office.

You are overplaying the effects of Brexit, massively underplaying the effects of Covid and I'm afraid government incompetence has been with us since the dawn of time. We all have to acknowledge that the overall likely effect of Brexit is but a dribble of water compared to the Tsunami of Covid...

It has been said over and over again and I share the concern that we are one bad injury to Maupay away from being in the poo. Connolly, Trossard, Ali J and Zeqiri are unlikely to get 10 goals between them and yet some on here are suggesting that one or more of these would just slip comfortably...

Glenn is being missed, particularly in our own penalty area. With Dunk, Duffy and Murray, we had tremendous aerial strength and teams struggled to get on the end of stuff. He is, quite simply, one of the best defensive headers of the ball I have ever seen. Brilliant. Ryan was fine staying on his...

Sounds about right based on a relegation re-adjustment. ( Definitely affordable )

They have got relegation clauses. They lose 40% of their money in the Championship. Ake didn't and so they cashed in. Others, such as Wilson were also keen to get away because of this. As far as I am aware, King's money will have fallen to a lower level.

Does seem unlikely. We are one long term injury to Maupay away from being in the you know what. Connolly, at best, is going to get 5-6 this season. We don't have free scoring midfielders or wide men and we have let Murray and Gykores go out on loan. Potter talks about playing AJ or Trossard in...

Hey ho...double post....start the week as you mean to go on!

Lack of crowds is clearly having an effect. Sides haven't just decided to go gung-ho and attack like crazy. Its a product of this new sterile environment. Lack of preparation / short pre-season may have played a small part but the game has clearly changed since fans were omitted. Never...

Should have had one last week but missed the boat.

Yesterday proved how poor United are at the moment. They were there for the taking against us and we failed to take that opportunity through bad luck, careless play and loss of concentration. It is likely that at least 12 other PL clubs would have beaten them on the day. We caught Chelsea below...
