  1. You don’t get an atmosphere going by banging some boards. All that does is drown out any real enthusiasm from the rest of the stadium. Besides, how is anyone else supposed to join in?
  2. The substitutions should have been made much earlier, around 75 minutes or so. Aribo for Smallbone was an obvious one to make. Sulemana was his usual expensive ineffective performance and should never have started.
  3. They are a lottery in the sense that the odd mistake, misjudgement or fluke has a bigger influence than it would over a longer run of games. One shirt tug against Derby, for example, ended up being the difference between us.
  4. A 5ft 9 inch player unmarked on the penalty spot with a stooping header.
  5. Although that would go a long way to making up the goal difference.
  6. Thanks for this. You have no idea how sad it makes me feel. In today’s game there is no chance of ever seeing such magic again.
  7. These rules are there in case you need medical attention and have to stay in the country beyond your intended departure date.
  8. Being thick, but another example of Brexit Buggery.
  9. We all know that football didn’t exist before the Premier League.
  10. I never knew that bednarek was a Welsh word meaning ‘brick shithouse’
  11. Another synonym is ‘Fart’
  12. "It's being so cheerful that keeps me going" Mona Lott
  13. Or, ”Before you judge a man, walk a mile in his shoes”
  14. I think that chart is quite mild considering we were in the middle of a global pandemic.
  15. The black or the yellow one?
  16. He was quicker than a lot gave him credit for
  17. Goal difference is not the same as goals conceded. It might just have been that we didn’t score many.
  18. Source? You cannot quote random figures without some genuine data to back them up. And to say “4,000%” is beyond amateurish and no professional statistician would ever express an increase in those terms. Any percentage should be a fraction of a hundred. The clue is in the word. If you mean increased by 40 times then you should say so.
  19. No, I don’t think that’s always been the case.
  20. Do you not see a connection between the amount of goals conceded and the obsession with possession?
  21. Then they should stay in the bank and count their money.
  22. “Though this be madness, yet there is method in ‘t” There is some truth in what you say.
  23. Legend. Rest in Peace, sir.
  24. In general men die younger than women. When are they going to put that straight?
