  1. I think that was Alcaraz with a lovely cushioned header, and is looking for the ball.
  2. Well, if he looks like a skate, and his name sounds like a skate...
  3. Silly players picking up silly cards.
  4. Phew. I read AA getting booked, before Sky caught up. I had a moment thinking he'd got a second. 🙂
  5. A little chase down of the goalkeeper. No any supporting press, but nice to keep them on their toes.
  6. They've given the goal to AA.
  7. Well Edozie did beat his man. So points for perservance. No end product though in the end.
  8. just a little pause before getting that cross in by JWP... nearly someone on the end of the ball back in...
  9. KWP makes such a difference. Attacking. Good passing. Links up so well with JWP. And on the right, thank you very much.
  10. we blocked it well enough, although they had a few too many goes at getting a shot.
  11. I thought sabermetrics was the analysis of fencing... >digs data analytics book back out of bin<
  12. I knew it! As soon as I read Blackwood's The Willows! >Dumps data analysis book in bin< While it's still evolving, and with plenty of variables to capture, there are a number of very useful indicators from data analysis. Bazunu is going to be facing strikers with a generally lower level of decision making and shooting skill. Our defence should be a bit better against them too. He should have an easier time of it, which should help his confidence and development under Martin's system. But there is still the question over whether his positioning is good enough to stop shots from positions with a higher chance of going in, in either of the top divisions.
  13. I was going for... But yeah, your reply with its analysis angle works too. 🙂
  14. We'll finish second, if we don't win it. Like the other relegated teams, our resources are considerably larger. I think we're in as good a, if not better, place than them. We have a large squad, which at the start of the season should be good enough to get wins. When several depart, we've got enough depth, key targets in areas and the resources to get them to push on. The smaller squad will be a benefit then, as we've talented youngsters coming through too. The coaching team will know that they'll rarely have a better chance than this to do well with a club.
  15. 0-2 to Saints. A strong, early start gets us a lead. We just don't quite click to score more than a couple. Wednesday have to push. There's the odd moment where we don't clear our lines, along with mental fragility from last season. But we're fine and get a nice confidence boost from the win. Tomorrow's winning numbers will be...
  16. "Right lads. Today we'll be looking at free kicks. Right. Where's James? There you are. Just to let you know we'll be looking at defending them. You just keep doing your thing, while I put my feet up for that bit." Well for as long as JWP stays with us 🙂
  17. I'm sure that Saints conducted more intensive, methodical research than shown here, as supported by their hugely successful last transfer windo...ah, damn it... 🙂
  18. And wing commander Lowe knows all about dive bombing something. Like a club down through the divisions. 🙂
  19. Not when doing it "for any amount of gossip" would totally undermine your only fans pricing structure. 🙂
