I went with a few others in 2009 I think, late January flights and hotels were cheap and match tickets easy to get, might need to plan ahead a bit more now they are doing well but well worth the trip. Proper football culture in the city, plenty more to do whilst there, breakfast overlooking the sea with a cappuccino and a copy of Gazetta dello sport 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like this comment from the Reading 'interim manager', "We are in control of the game, then two minutes later the ball goes in, it hits his hand, it's not intentional. If you look at it he goes with his head, it hits his hand and goes in so the referee has got to use common sense." So the referee is supposed to ignore the Laws of the Game and all his directives just to suit Reading? They don't pay him enough for that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turkish Posted 21 April, 2023 Share Posted 21 April, 2023 (edited) The coverage given to Wrexham at the moment is a bit nauseating. I've got a bit of a soft spot for Wrexham as my cousin moved there years ago so spent a bit of time there when i was a kid. Currently on GMT interviewing an american girl in Alabama who will be getting up early tomorrow to watch the game after she "feel in love with Wrexham" after watching the documentary. All very excited about them winning promotion to the football league tomorrow. Seriously, a club of that size it's no real achievement to get out of the 5th tier. I wish them well but it's all a bit over the top. The real story here is Notts County who despite having over 100 points already wont win the league.

Lee On Solent Saint Posted 22 April, 2023 Share Posted 22 April, 2023 Interesting set of fixtures for the rest of this weekend. On paper at least, Leeds and Everton seem to have relatively tough fixtures, although I wouldn't be surprised if Everton grind out a win at Palace. Hopefully Forest will get a tanking at Liverpool. Really could do without Leicester picking up anything against Wolves, but think they will take at least a point. A Bournemouth against the Hammers will just about see them safe, and probably the same for West Ham if they win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly this. Its pretty remarkable that we’ve got one point out of 12 and are still only 4 points adrift. Leicester v Leeds Tuesday and obviously both can’t win that one, followed by Everton v Leicester next weekend. Means nothing if we can’t beat Bournemouth, but who knows what pressure will do to other sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chiknsmack Posted 23 April, 2023 Share Posted 23 April, 2023 I haven't seen much of Harry Wilson this season but he's played nearly the full 90 in each of the past two matches and scored in both. He looked very good today, as did the Fulham attack as a whole (particularly Robinson and Willian down the left). Though they did only put two past Leeds. Those Forest long throws caused Liverpool a whole heap of problems. Maybe we should consider something similar ourselves? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
