The Cat

We haven't had any hope for a while, but after yesterday's 1-1 against struggling MK Dons when all the other teams around you won it looks like yours has gone too.

What sign are you taking? I've gone a bit more obscure because everyone else will be asking for Haaland, De Bruyne, Grealish etc. Mine says "Nathan can I have your shirt. It would Make my day."

I like the way that Celtic Dragons have decided not to call the players on the bench subs and used the term "impact players" instead. Can't believe Parker and Morgan are on the bench for Manchester. What a joke.

Looks like Warnock is sorting Huddersfield out. Won 3 in a row now. I quite like Huddersfield as a place, it's a long way but decent for away games.

Just looked back further. After winning 3 from 4 games in October they were top. Since then they've won 2, drawn 5 and lost 17. Amazing.

QPR have to be one of the funniest teams this season. Started off like a train, might even have been top briefly. Now one place above relegation and on an astonishing run of form. Not sure what Watford we're doing?!

Imagine if both of them had been going back to the pub after games with their groups of mates and having the same conversation about the bloke 2 seats away being an annoying prick.

May see something like that in the Chapel/Itchen corner where the current cheapest tickets are. That's decent for the Championship. Works out at £13 a ticket. I pay something like £570 in family stand which would be under £25 for 23 home games. They could do with it being something around £500 behind the goals to see a good take up, maybe even £459 so it can be advertised as under £20 a game. However as everyone seems to suspect they'll probably just freeze them.

West Ham seem a much bigger team, very strong.

All the away fans in the home ends.

It might affect who goes down with us. I'm bang up for that being Leicester. But yeah.

Mark Paul, Olivier Bernard and Stig Johansson.

I don't really get annoyed by much but that bloke is an absolute helmet. Wouldn't be surprised if him and DT were also posting on some South Korean suicide forum.

Or maybe they are supporting him, wanting him to do well, getting behind him. You could maybe try it too if you got off the internet for 10 minutes and went to a few games. You can't go on about other teams having good support and then have a pop at our fans when they do sing.

Forest have plummeted down the league like a stone the past couple of months. Happy for Leeds to stay up, never one of my favourite away games.

Outside of the mega rich clubs football goes in cycles. It's our turn to be a bit shit now, it might just be this season, a couple or maybe a few more. But it won't always be the case and we'll probably end up getting promoted back to the top flight again at some point as one of the current darlings of the league implode and go the other way. I'm looking forward to playing different teams, having more games, visiting a couple of new grounds and others I haven't been to for a while, no fucking VAR and most importantly games on a Saturday at 3pm. Football to me isn't wrapped up purely in results. It's going to games with family and friends, bumping into mates at away games and in the pub. Singing stupid songs and going mental celebrating a goal while bashing your shins up. It's driving home in the dark from an away game you regret going to half an hour into the match. None of that is available on a forum. But all of it will still happen no matter what league Saints are in.

That was very similar to the goal he scored at Burnley. Very nice.

Yes, WBA for curry. Hopefully Boro go up through playoffs as that will mean Luton and Millwall away trips too. Plus Watford is easy. Swansea and Cardiff aren't too bad either. Whoever comes up automatically from League 1 will be a bit of a journey. Likely 2 from Sheff Wed, Plymouth and Ipswich.

Bournemouth because they are nearby and Leicester because it would be funny and I like going there because of the great pub that serves curry.

Ings was absolute garbage which is surprising because he was playing against the worst defence in the league and was guaranteed to score according to posts earlier.

Still in this largely because West Ham are complete toilet, especially considering the team they have. Need to stop giving the ball away so cheaply. Moi and Stu the main culprits.

I stuck a bit on them getting promoted at 50/1 a couple of weeks ago after looking at their run in.

Ooops!

I wonder what his views are on the 15 minute city? Was just listening to a report about them on World Service and there's a load of whack jobs online ranting on about how "they" want to lock us all in some sort of climate prison so everyone is forced to cycle or walk to any amenity or work within 15 minutes.

Hackney Wick has a disproportionate number of very good pubs, bars, taprooms etc near to the station. Easily walkable to the ground too.
