100% save ratio this season, clean sheet in every game. Statistically the best keeper in the world.

It's exactly the same scenario as it was before. We need to win all our games and Leicester and Ipswich both draw one of their games left (or drop more points). Leicester have Preston away and Blackburn at home, both tough games.

Bastards.

And Vardy misses it. Baggies can easily get a point here, if not more.

The entire footballing world is wrong. You are right.

Said it before and i'll say it again, the main benefit of having a director of football role is to ensure continuity between different managers coming and going. It completely defeats the fucking purpose if you're getting through directors of football quicker than manager. Next person that comes in needs to be told that they will be here for the duration of the contract signed as minimum.

Agreed. I honestly wouldn't be against moving to the sash design permanently.

I did, but after this? Not so sure. We're going to need to sign a new number one in the summer now - not a stop gap, not a "can do a job", we need to get the best keeper available with the funds we have. And with Bazunu coming back from a serious injury and a new keeper potentially cementing his place in the team, who knows if he'll progress on the expected trajectory at all.

While I still think this is a potential workaround I didn't realise that clubs and league organisations outside the Prem weren't consulted about these changes beforehand. This change should be put on hold until a proper consultation and vote has taken place with every club that participates in the FA cup getting a vote.

You would hope they're pulling out a "column" of seats from the away end to fit a barrier.

To offset the potential loss of earnings for small clubs from replays, they should change the way gate receipts are split so that they are 75/25 in favour of the team lower down the leagues, and still split 50/50 for teams in the same leagues.

I hate to break it to you...

How do you explain Bazunus keeping stats being so terrible compared to everyone else then?

He didn't make a risky dribble, he received a pass under pressure (no idea why Manning passed it back when the reason Mccarthy took that freekick quickly was to get it moving forward) and then barely dealt with it. He also dealt with the ball at his feet several times without incident, passing it well under admittedly mild pressure but that's just being ignored.

Well the chapel lot won't go to the northam because it'll be mostly safe standing.
