Just caught up with this. I thought it was brilliant. I even found Alan Carr funny for the first time ever. The highlight for me was Diane Morgan's joker, and the reaction to it from Gbemi. I don't think I've ever heard another human being make a sound quite like she did when she couldn't hold it in any longer. It's no wonder she made herself unwell.

God how sweet would that be - to get them in the playoffs and smash them at Pride Park in revenge for 2007.

He's a proper old school left back. He's not as good going forward as Manning, but he's a far better defender.

Downes has to miss another two games. We won't see him until the playoffs now.

Boro can still get second with a win against Wrexham. There's zero chance they will be playing for a draw.

I just tried to do an accumulator on Betfair to work it out, but they're not offering odds on ours or Ipswich's final games until after we've played each other tomorrow night.

Their poor record in that department dates back to the 80s and the failed attempt on Reagan. Yet they seem to be so much more adept at shooting school kids.

In all probability yes. But here's an idea... If we get into a comfortable lead over them tomorrow night (and wipe out their GD advantage), how about we then sub on some fringe players who we don't mind losing to suspension for the last day/playoffs and get them to put in some crunching tackles on Ipswich's best players? Not that I would condone such cynical, unsporting behaviour, of course.

Oh yeah. Sorry it's still early on a Monday morning and I mis-read your post. I assumed you were referring to the battle for second.

Or, as he's supposed to be so good with his feet, maybe we could give him a go at RB to provide cover for Bree, if we can't find a club willing to take him on loan.

There's also a 3-way fight for the last playoff place involving Disney FC (a real Mickey Mouse Club 😉) The Sky coverage will be all over that, hoping for a fairytale ending.

If you had travelled north after the game like I did, you would have heard plenty.

Just been sent this by a mate. Watch Keown's hand gestures while talking about Spurs 🤣 VID-20260426-WA0016.mp4

Yeah the problem being that the vast majority of our fans there yesterday either don't go to away games or sit in the quieter parts of St Mary's, so probably don't know the words to a lot of the other songs. So if we want the whole crowd singing then it needs to be the obvious classics. A small pocket of fans near me tried getting the father's gun song going, but it didn't travel far (thankfully - I think it's a cringey, tinpot song that needs to get in the bin).

He posted some utter nonsense on the match thread for the City game yesterday about Baz being so much more intelligent in his distribution. TBH the joke is wearing a bit thin now.
