    Ellis Simms

    Also a complete lack of ‘aggression’ all round in our play. Cullen and Brownhill had all the time in the world last night to drop, receive the ball and get them playing. Only time I remember any pressure being applied was from Torp but he couldn’t keep it up after about 25 minutes. It’s the one...

    BBC women's footballer of the year

    Absolute disgrace from BBC. Oh, wait… “She received the most votes from readers of the BBC Sport website after a five-player shortlist was announced last month.”

    Frank Lampard Rumours

    Why go for ‘Mason Mount 2.0’? May as well just sign Mason Mount. I’m sure he’d be glad to get a game.

    "Underlying numbers"

    I’ve often felt this but can’t find anything statistically that points to it. In fact, our non-penalty xG to shots ratio is 0.11, with the highest achievers in the league at 0.12 and the lowest at 0.07. Suggests there’s plenty worse than us. Of maybe more relevance is we’ve had 40 ‘big chances’...

    Mike Ashley at the CBS?

    This is the bit I always struggle with. The ROI for the stadium purchase alone must be fairly poor. But if the club was available and he didn’t buy, why would he look to buy at a higher price further down the line?

    Rhys Carr - Interim Head Coach

    Why not? If he flips to a diamond midfield I’m all for it.

    Frank Lampard Rumours

    He didn’t have Abraham at Derby. He’d spent the season on loan at Villa.

    BA flights grounded

    Isn’t BA owned by American Airlines now?

    Right who's the next manager then?

    He looks to be suffering this season with cheap goals being conceded, which naturally if you are trying to implement an almost ‘tiki taka’ style in L1 will be used as a stick to beat him with. Their XG Against is 14.9 and they’ve conceded 24 goals. It’s a bit of misfortune. Wouldn’t be my pick...

    Right who's the next manager then?

    Funny name. The talk of both Skubala and Seles is weird. Neither statistically seem to have their sides playing in a way that would suit our squad…well, in fairness not entirely true of Selles as his team leaks goals.

    England - Lee Carsley Era

    Sensational lack of movement. Bit like watching Cov this season, happy to just rotate the ball round midfield.

    England - Lee Carsley Era

    Not that we are spoilt for choice in the current squad, but I’m really not convinced by Madueke at all.

    Boxing 2024

    Don’t know why people entertain the pantomime. It’s ruined regular boxing for me.

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    Thought his government had collapsed?

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    The key really is the skill level of the job and the level of education provided alongside. I’ve just stuck “apprentice” in Indeed and one of the roles is a mobile phone repair apprenticeship.

    Weight and working out

    What exercise are you doing (if any)? What is the ‘profile’ of your diet? I wouldn’t get too focused on weight given the journey you’ve been on. It’s possible that there’s been muscle gain or, as MMB says, water retention if the salt content of your diet has been higher than usual.

    Ruud Van Nistelrooy applies for Coventry Job

    I haven’t watched Lincoln but virtually none of their underlying stats suggest I’d be keen on their manager.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I like how someone has clearly been passed a message that “one word grading system will need to be changed” and immediately thought the same but with two words might help.
