    Championship 21/22

    It did happen once this season. The Blues player got sent off at our place for a similar challenge and if I remember rightly the ref was heavily criticised.

    Championship 21/22

    Strangely, I think I saw something recently where Alan Shearer said he always purposely aimed at the keeper knowing that 9 times out of 10 he would get a slight mis-hit and it would go past them.

    With that scoreline there’s a possibility it wouldn’t be!

    I’m expecting 2 changes for Monday. McFazdean back in and Kane for Dabo (injured).

    Match Thread Birmingham City (A) - Fri 15th April

    I think the pitch is a major factor affecting the quality of the game. The ball is bouncing up horribly making it difficult to play any decent football.

    Championship 21/22

    It comes down to whether we can stay in touch going into the last 3 games. West Brom - nothing to play for Huddersfield - resting players for the play offs Stoke - nothing to play for All hypothetical, but means probably 12 pts from the next 7 games to have a chance. We have won the last 3...

    Championship 21/22

    Not over, but you couldn’t really pick a tougher run of games. 5 away games against local rivals plus the top 3 and probably requiring 7 wins. That said, we do tend to play well against the better teams and it’s an opportunity to take points off some rivals.

    Match Thread Sheff Utd (H) 12/03/22

    The Leeds team of the 70s were not journeymen footballers, they had world class players. That’s why Brian Clough called them out when he took over, because he strongly believed that they didn’t need to be like that.

    Championship 21/22

    Luton have an extra game in the FA cup this week. I wonder if that might be a factor for our game next Tuesday.

    CBS Arena

    https://www.saintsweb.co.uk/topic/58778-condition-of-the-stadium/ Noticed a similar thread on the Southampton site. Is it down to poor build quality of the recently built stadiums?

    I seem to be getting shot down for trying to give some rationale for why some are not taking it (my whole family have). Perhaps some of the reported side effects (even if rare) are having an influence. Myocarditis is a daunting prospect if you are a young footballer, indeed my own son (a...

    Firstly, I’m giving some rationale for the low take up and secondly pharmaceuticals and the medical profession are not infallible. My own son is studying medicine, so I do have some insight.

    I think it comes down to the lack of transparency of the (potential) long term health effects of taking these vaccines, particularly the mRNA based ones. If you‘re over a certain age with a health condition it’s a no brainer, not so much if you‘re fit and healthy and in your 20s.

    FA Cup 3rd Round Draw

    It‘s not just the club’s decision, Derby have input too. Perhaps they were resistant to a lower price?

    Oh Lord - RIP John Sillett

    https://pasoti.co.uk/threads/john-sillett-rip.116678/ A couple of nice stories on the Plymouth forum. Obviously well thought of there too.

    Next six games

    Based on PPG 6th spot is tracking at 70/71 points and CCFC 81 points, so there is some leeway if form drops away slightly.

    Farke out………Robins in, What are the chances.

    Indeed you could argue that Robin’s time at Huddersfield was somewhat a car crash.

    Newcastle United Saudi Takeover

    That will be 1 promotion place written off next season then! Also do Sunderland fans really want to be in the same division as their closest rivals whilst they romp away with the title?
