This game is all about the referee. He let Leicester hack us down constantly without pulling a card, including one which could easily be deemed a goalscoring opportunity (keeper well away from his line). He set up the conditions for escalation and has now lost control. Their penalty some might...

Are we really still arguing about which is the best city or biggest club? FFS, what a waste of pixels.

As Torch said, Hollis' solo album is good too.

I used to think they were crap, took a long time to discover the good stuff which came later in.

The club has issued a FB post making a thing about him being on the programme cover on Saturday. Don't recall them making anything of the programme cover before... Could just be the 50 goals thing or could be more significant.

Busted!

Dad! You promised me you wouldn't post any more.

Why all the animus? We are all the same: working class kids or sons of working class parents. It's a lottery where we are born and loyal souls support the footy side that's local. I don't mind the pantomime aspect of songs et al. No, I lie, I like it. It's funny. But all this talk of hate...

Having targets lined up and getting them over the line are very different things. Hopefully we are targeting players who are important to these other teams and they are not happy to lose. First we have to persuade them to sell and only then may we negotiate with the players themselves. Maybe...

I don't understand why teams with a lead don't do this more. Too often they cede possession softly and expend more energy chasing down the opposition. It seems to me that the way to conserve energy is to keep possession and let them chase us. There was a game years ago, England playing Italy...

I understand MR's strategy in recent years (playing a weakened side). He knew we weren't going to win the thing and wanted to avoid tiredness and potential injury. However I've often thought him wrong in this approach (from my position of being a know-nothing armchair supporter). It seems to...

Both totally against the run of play and from outside the box. Deflection and sun in Wilson's eyes for the first. I would imagine Wilson is cross with himself for the second but I think he was unsighted and saw it late. I think the point is rather about the dominance in possession and being...

It did feel like that didn't it? Palmer and COH in particular, our two most talented players, looking like they were playing with them, as a cat will with some unfortunate vole.

Maybe. But celebrating goals 5 and 6, scored late on, against a beaten side would be rather ostentatious. I think it would be a case of the futility of celebration in those circumstances. Rather like jumping around with glee upon scoring a consolation goal in the last minute whilst three...

Because he would drag a mid-table side down into the bottom?

Easy, that. Everyone played well but it was men against boys. If we'd wanted to, could have scored ten or more. Simms played really well apart from the finishing. One day I'm sure he will start banging them in; just loses composure at the critical point. For his best chance he booted it at...

All going well at half-time. Freaks or bad mistakes aside, cannot see Oxford getting back into this game. Their goal was from a soft punt from outside the box, a big deflection and the sun in Wilson's eyes. Keeping the ball well and looking like we could score at will. Unsurprisingly, the...

Call me old fashioned, but this Langstaff cove... Surely MR and his recruitment boffins have done their homework. If they think he will fit in, has enough pace, will step up, stats are good etc. and are willing to pay £x... then, as already established I know nothing and I trust them...

I know absolutely nothing and have never pretended to do so. I'm just musing on a chat forum. I'm not covering any bases and I will never claim to have been right if one of the many I suggest goes, as that would be absurd. Just proffering an opinion on how radical 'being bold' might be...

Great reading comprehension! I'm guessing you got A* Eng Lang GCSE. :)
