Willo of Whiteley Posted Tuesday at 21:17 Posted Tuesday at 21:17 Mayenda Neil of Sunderland look decent. Sunderland have turned up more today than they did last week. Their players have apent a lot of time on the floor and in the officials faces. They’ve run out of players to be booked now so it’s eased up. 😂

warsash saint Posted Tuesday at 21:49 Posted Tuesday at 21:49 Nice to see Sunderland celebrate with their fans after the game ... unlike last year when we had to watch our bellend fans do knee slides across the pitch!

He broke his ankle while playing as a trialist for our academy years ago. He got turned down by us, Norwich and Reading, if I remember rightly (I might have the other two teams wrong) and then ended up rehabbing and fighting his way back in at Arsenal and getting a pro deal Edited Tuesday at 22:43 by CSA96 1
Jimmy_D Posted Tuesday at 22:46 Posted Tuesday at 22:46 I know some people don’t like the playoff games but they just serve up absolutely fantastic matches so often, as well as keeping far more teams in a fight for something to play for far further into the season. I do think they could make it fairer on the teams finishing higher by making it 5th vs 6th, followed by the winner of that playing 4th, followed by the winner of that playing 3rd. It’s the same number of fixtures, albeit with trickier scheduling. 1

Just a shame Hull and Preston scraped by and three ‘southern’ teams dropped out the other end.

Yeah if Sheff Utd join Burnley going up and Luton having gone down will that just leave us, Leicester and Ipswich in receipt of parachute payments in next seasons championship?

I agree. the playoffs have more plusses than minuses, ( the Championship promotion race would have been finished months ago without them, which is tough on Sheff Utd of course) but they should definitely be rebalanced in favour of the best placed sides. other non league divisions do variations on this.

Yep, I think so. Would be interesting to see how many seasons there's only been 3 teams with parachute payments. Can't be many.
Lighthouse Posted Wednesday at 17:08 Author Posted Wednesday at 17:08 https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cp92njv53k3o What kind of weird, nonsense argument is this? They're basically saying that delayed offside flags are dangerous because they allow players to play football for another eight seconds. If that passage of play was dangerous, then what if he'd been onside? 1
macca155 Posted Wednesday at 18:19 Posted Wednesday at 18:19 What happens to Ben Bereton Diaz if Sheffield Utd win the play off. Do they have a commitment to buy him? I'd imagine they'll be trying to get out of that deal.

Holmes_and_Watson Posted Wednesday at 20:39 Posted Wednesday at 20:39 2 hours ago, The Kraken said: No. Option to buy only. Perhaps their manager will have a Russ moment after the whistle, and offer him a contract on the pitch like he seemed to for McCarthy. 🙂

Midfield_General Posted Thursday at 20:09 Posted Thursday at 20:09 Nathan Jones looking absolutely deranged on the touchline for Charlton.

He did NOT enjoy that free kick wasted straight behind the goal. Most of the play off ties have been exciting but these two ties so far…er not.

Very wasteful. 1
Holmes_and_Watson Posted Thursday at 20:59 Posted Thursday at 20:59 Cameras on Nathan at the end. Going ballistic over everything, barely coherent, on his knees praying before the whistle and then doing a Ralph. It clearly means so much to him, but it can't be good for his wellbeing. 2
Midfield_General Posted Thursday at 20:59 Posted Thursday at 20:59 Celebrating like they’ve won the champions league after scraping a semi against wycombe 😂 He’s an absolute fruitcake 1
SouSaint Posted Thursday at 20:59 Posted Thursday at 20:59 Nathan Jones knowing the camera was on him in the 93rd min... 2 4

You can’t question his passion but whoever thought he had the temperament to be a premier league manager needs their head examined. How can you expect to keep your players calm and focused when you’re melting down like that over everything 3

That’s not just a low bar, it’s no bar. Martin has been found out which is why we’re still paying him. Idiotic to have turned down West Brom. Best chance he has is one of City’s coaches leaving,

Their forum is saying that but having turned it down in December, I can’t see him going there now. Norwich don’t seem to be considering him, Leicester who knows and Rangers strongly linked with Ancelotti Jr.
Saint Keef Posted Thursday at 21:51 Posted Thursday at 21:51 I see Mad Nate's at it again. Embarrassing in the extreme. "Nurse, he's out of bed again". 2
Pamplemousse Posted Friday at 07:19 Posted Friday at 07:19 Every time he pops up, it's a reminder of why Rasmus should be as far away as possible from any decision-making. 6

I think so, fixtures are released in June, if we have Orient away end of season it would be reasonable to assume promotion is assured
