    The holiday 2023 thread

    We stayed at Paradise Island in Lanzarote last year. Got plenty to do for the kids including a big water park on site that’s free to use if you’re staying there. Almost as important the flumes are great for the mums and dads too. My two lads were 18 months and 10 at the time and they both loved...

    England squad

    He has to be in there in competitive games. One of a fair few certain starters for me. He's that important on the right that even Foden (who is brilliant) needs to be on the opposite side he plays on normally to get in the team.

    England squad

    I like it aside from the bit under the arms. Home kit is lovely. Plenty of nice touches.

    England squad

    He hasn’t missed a home or away game for years. In the past I’ve wanted him in the squad. More recently there are better/more suitable players out there.

    England squad

    We missed out on him but I’m struggling to work out who he’d play instead of. Watched their game in Vienna in November. Austria ripped them apart and 2-0 flattered Germany. As a side note Austria are grouped with France, Holland and probably Poland. It wouldn’t surprise me to see them in the top...

    England squad

    My West Ham mate said he’s been one of their worst players this season and most of his free kicks have ended up in the upper tier. From what I’ve seen of him I’d tend to agree.

    He went to our academy first.

    B’ham Senior Cup

    Ben Arthur was on the bench for Brentford on Saturday. He came through Sphinx’s youth system.

    Lati song 👎

    I would like to think everyone singing it are not intending to be racist. Waghorn and many other white players have had a similar chant. I felt similar about the Wednesday fans booing Palmer. I would like to think that that was not to do with him pointing out the cretin being racist and was due...

    Wolves tickets

    I'd like to see it introduced. 70/30 seems pretty fair. As I mentioned before there's a bit of admin involved to do it that way and I doubt there's the man power to do it. A membership scheme to access away tickets costing a tenner a season is more than enough to cover the extra staff needed for...

    Win the FA Cup or promotion for one year .

    Win the cup. If you ask fans from Swansea, Blues and Wigan I bet most will say they wouldn’t swap their cup wins for being in the Prem now despite how things have gone since.

    Wales v Ireland kits 6 nations

    It’s one of the reasons why sometimes teams wear their away kit when there appears to be no reason for it. Teams can request it. Statistically there could be two people on the pitch that are colourblind. With regards to snooker Mark Williams has the condition. He once mistook the brown for a...

    Watford tickets

    We’re in the reverse situation. We sacrificed Blackburn away and potentially QPR at home just in case we made the play offs. We land at 6am on the Sunday of the QPR weekend so hopefully that moves to the Sunday as it can’t be at 3pm on the Saturday and we only miss one game.

    Watford tickets

    The way how the FA do it is 70% of the tickets are done on caps. So if there are 1000 tickets the top 700 people in the caps table that applied for the game get guaranteed one. The remaining 30% are randomly balloted to all the others that applied. Any ticket that isn’t purchased goes into a...
