Portsmouth equalise. Yengi, presumably covered in Rico's pocket fluff.

Re: Re: Twixt Cups and Lips. Home to Shrewbury Town, Tuesday Apr 16th 7-45.

So that's
• Rico, Jones and Bod all out of the 18
• Sheehan drops to the bench
• Iredale, Forrester, Demps and Jerome replace them in the XI
• Nlundulu on the bench

Ramsay and Ashworth the others not in the 18, as has been the case in the last three games.

Re: Five Year EFL Deal: Death of the 3pm?

I can see both sides on this 'cos neither's perfect. Nowhere enar. It's not "fair" that Wrexham have Hollywood money and 'pull', but is it fair to deny any club the chance to dream? FFP and its like were designed to stop financial doping, which is obviously a huge problem - but if all clubs can only...

Re: Cups and Lips. Home to Shrewbury Town, Tuesday Apr 16th 7-45.

The hows and the whys matter not. Must win. A proper spanking would do wonders for three things, though - 1) our goal difference, 2) our confidence, 3) potentially instilling a bit of "oh-God-that-train-is-coming-up-behind-really-effing-QUICK" fear into Derby... Momentum, too. Even if we're in the ...

Re: Race to the tape: 2024's League One promotion campaign

Didn’t stoke take plymouths manager? That would be interesting if it comes down to them two! Yep, Schumacher. Can see why he left (more local, "headroom") but Stoke is a manager's graveyard. Weird club in total stasis for five years since relegation. He left for treble the salary he was getting at ...

Re: Getting hairy: Portsmuff at home 13/4/24 3pm KO

I'm hearing that was our 109th goal this season? Aye, in all comps - apparently only Toddy's 96/97 team have scored more. Across the 92 this season, only Liverpool and City have scored more. But... Why is the distribution so off? Seems pretty shit that we spank Oxford 5 nil and couldn't hit a cows ...

Re: Getting hairy: Portsmuff at home 13/4/24 3pm KO

Easy for me to say with hindsight, and entirely speculative, but I do wonder whether we’d have given ourselves a better chance of winning with different substitutions. Charles I’d have brought on for Bod much earlier and probably have left Collins on. Sheehan and Maghoma I’d have kept on until the ...

Re: Race to the tape: 2024's League One promotion campaign

While we wonder if we'll get up, there's a hella relegation battle above us and I'm firmly into the "Ooh if we do go up I want X to go down then we can nick their players, Y to go down because they'll be better next season" etc

Re: Getting hairy: Portsmuff at home 13/4/24 3pm KO

Might be channelling Insano here but people say they're more confident of the playoffs after the performance. It's the opposite for me. We were poor against Bristol Rovers and won; today I thought we were majestic yet didn't win when we desperately needed to. I dunno mate. Lincoln have suddenly los...

Re: Getting hairy: Portsmuff at home 13/4/24 3pm KO

Can't decide how it makes me feel. "Good but not quite good enough to beat the champions" might be alright. "Good but not quite good enough to go up" would hurt. Back out of our hands now. But weird stuff continues to happen. Ask Posh, battered 5-0 by the same Oxford we battered 5-0. Ultimately it ...
