2024/25 League 1 Champs?

I haven't flicked through any of your history. You've consistently gone on about how Eccles is shit and should be playing in League One. If you don't have the awareness to realise that, then perhaps you aren't as intelligent as you think you are?

In fact, don't answer that. There's no need. If you want to boast about being more intelligent than someone, then you've probably picked the wrong person anyway. I'm sure I can speak for a lot more achievements than you can.

Also, double check you haven't confused me with the other Earlsdon on some affairs today. Your angles are a bit strange.

Thanks for the entertainment, but like you said, there is a win to enjoy.

* I think you mean ‘of’ or ‘about’ a lot more achievements, but hey whatever… 😂 you’re funny!

Struggled a bit the first half but that was much more like the old sheaf 2nd half, looked like he was playing a bit deeper more defensive ?, something to build on 👍

He is a holding player rather than creative and best left to do what he does best.

It doesn't matter that the team performance wasn't perfect. Grinding out a result away against a team unbeaten in ten deserves credit.

EMC seems strangely hesitant in his natural position. Glad for him to have scored but he’s a huge downgrade on Wright.
I reckon Wright will be played as the lone striker.

Distract decisive.

Lee Child has his next predictable novel.
Which I will get for Christmas.

Can't wait.

Love a bit of Reacher.

Admittedly not as good since his brother took over, but still an annual treat.

How nice is it to have someone making proactive tactical changes.

I loved MR and he is still the king but his massive flaw his inability to change the game plan mid game or bring on the right substitute.

Pleased for EMC today, who continues to look a fine and dangerous player to me, yet he regularly gets written off for reasons that escape me. Hard-working too. I can only assume his style isn’t quite what some people expected, but he’s such a great asset.

Haji Wright’s injury was a blow for us but the upside is that it has given EMC a run in the team and this has been good for him.

When HW is fit again I would like to see them both starting. That probably means Haji playing as a central striker, either on his own or as one of a pair.

Really enjoyed the game. Only worrying moment all through the game was their disallowed goal. But it was clear when the ref blew when I saw Collins on the floor. Had control of the 1st half without doing any damage. Was happy at HT. Playing away at The Den and keeping their support quiet tells a story. They had been on a long unbeaten run with the playoffs in sight.

Second half. Wow. Some players put in big performances. I can see EMC becoming a big fans favourite. A beast with talent. Can't wait for him on the left and Wright through the middle. And with game time together goals will become child's play. Latti. Best game for a long time. If he was a new big money signing you would have said money well spent. Saka was a delight to watch. Laughed a couple of times with how poor he was making their players look.

Welcome back Captain Sheaf. Taken time to come back from injury but was always going to be behind being against fresh players hitting peak fitness. Can't say anyone had a bad game.

My doubts about Lampard are gone already. The right person at the right time. We went from a side letting goals in every game to making us more like the home side. We were unlucky in front of goal. Subs played perfectly. And Lampard seems at home already. It can be difficult for a player from a top club in most of their career to go to a nobody. I can see him being with us for a long time until a big club comes along. If we can keep this going we will soon be in the top 6. Only the top 3 sides have been consistent.
