With our game at home to Wigan not on until tomorrow late afternoon, today has felt like a bit of a barren wasteland so far, if I'm honest. I got up, did a whole bunch of jobs, didn't get around to penning some thoughts until now, but there's not a ton of stuff going on. [...]
I really don't like Chelsea. I'd go as far as to say I hate them. I hate what they represent. I hate the way they started the spiral of financial doping that is now so prevalent in the game. I hate their game model of stockpiling players and then farming them out on loan. I hate [...]
Well now. Wasn't yesterday's football a nice little bonus on a weekend in which we were comprehensive in our job, whilst others were anything but, eh? I watched the first part of the Villa v Brentford game before heading off for some dinner, so I didn't see Villa stumble in the second half, then when [...]
Match day folks! And it's time to put everything to one side - the worry of a resurgent United, the fear of a blip after City's win against Wolves, the concern over two goalless draws in the Premier League previously - and get the job done this afternoon. Arsenal go into this one with a [...]
I've already spoken about that gnawing frustration I felt after Saturday evening's disappointing 0-0 draw to Forest. I know I am not alone. Even Declan Rice had been snapped mouthing expletives at the final whistle, which I think we can all understand, because that's what a lot of us were feeling at the time. City slip [...]
Happy match day all - hope we're all feeling positive ahead of a trip to the City Ground today? This is a Forest side who currently sit 17th in the table, who have lost 12 of their 21 games this season (one being a 3-0 to us at the Emirates during the disastrous Postecoglou reign), [...]
Let's start with the lovely ol' news that Bukayo Saka has reportedly agreed a new deal worth around £350k-per-week, depending on who you believe. What great news this is to finish a working week! It was announced yesterday via David Ornstein and a few others that pen had been put to paper on a new [...]
Well now. That was one heck of a successful hate-watch midweek edition, wasn’t it? The Scum lost to a last-gasp winner (and the manager tries everything, including being given an Arsenal cup and told to drink from it because they’ve ’bottled’ some of Mikel Arteta’s tactical ju-ju in there Man United can’t hold off Burnley [...]
It's a watching brief for us today and this evening, with our game on tomorrow, but I'd be lying if I said I expected some kind of upset in Manchester. Brighton is a good team; they picked up a win in their last game, but their visits to some of the so-called 'big clubs' of [...]
It's day two back in the office for me, and I already feel bloody knackered, so much for the rest and recharging of the Christmas period. I don't know how these footballers do it, you know. Well, I do, because they get lots of sleep, and they also treat their bodies like temples, not waste [...]
