  1. So, did I see that Forest’s overspend by almost double what Everton did…. Yet it’s 4points?
  2. Wages are according to Capology. wtf is capology
  3. Robins would ask for royalties.
  4. I wasn’t going to watch that FA Cup game yesterday but glad I did. It was fantastic viewing, and fitting of a quarter final. Seeing the scousers bottle it was amusing to say the least, but still enjoying a Man Ure win is difficult to say the least.
  5. I’ve held back off posting following the game, deliberately as it just annoyed me so much. While I didn’t expect much from it, a draw would have been nice, it was just the manner and attitude of some of the team. Now before I ‘go on’, it’s not all gone to hell, I’m not saying we’re relegated and we’ve no chance. Because that would be absurd. Our destiny is in our hands still and we’ve bounced back massively from setbacks before in recent months. What really got to me is how for so much of the game after they opened the scoring was how we were on our heels.l, waiting for things to happen, trying to react (or not even bothering in some cases) to when they had possession. The ones that really got to me, were the two goals by their sub, that lad from Wimbledon who’s name escapes me right now. His first, while Beadle maybe could have done better and not palmed it in the direction he did, the ‘reaction’ from the whole defence was laughable. Stood, watching. Then the last one, Bernard. Watch him. Stands still as their lad 8 yards out just moseys past him without as much as an ounce of effort, then he’s there 5 yards out waiting to receive a pull back from 6 yards away. Our defence are again like statues. Game over or not at that point, that was horrific defending. Fair play for DR coming out and taking responsibility for things, on how he setup, and it felt quite like the Saints (a) game where we went for it and got burned, badly. There’s something admirable about trying to take the game to the opposition, but, there’s no disgrace in being a little more pragmatic in a game like that either. DR is learning, and he’s still 100% right for the job IMO, yet it’s still right to have criticisms about his decisions too. As people have said. 8 cup finals now. Home games are so vital to our fortunes, and if feels like we have to bounce back against Swansea. We need a reaction, like the one we got post Huddersfield, and the positive is, we can.
  6. He's done a fantastic job at the Sky Blues, there's no doubt. But my god is he a bitter little man.
  7. I'd seen him listed on the same squad list as Bailey, but that must have changed now!
  8. I’ve not seen the article but there was something on Twitter earlier that the bloke from the Mail who started the faux outrage has doubled down on things…
  9. Well, it made a lasting impression. Which is fine. Suppose it takes the focus away from your ‘vibe’…
  10. James Beadle / Bailey Cadamarteri - England U19s. Ian Poveda - Columbia Ike Ugbo - Canada Di'Shon Bernard - Jamaica Joey Phuthi - Zimbabwe Pierce Charles - Northern Ireland U21 Also..... Bailey Cadamateri was called up to play for Jamaica, but apparently his preferred choice for now is England U19. https://www.swfc.co.uk/news/2024/march/owls-on-the-international-stage/
  11. Fancy being your age and using the word 'vibe'.... 😁
  12. Head to head v Ipswich Town We've both won 21 games, and there have been 16 draws between the sides. Interestingly, there's not been a goalless game between us since 2009, and we've only failed to score on 3 occasions in the last 21 games against them. Our last 5 results down in the farmer's back yard. April 2017 - We won 1-0, Kieran Lee with the winner with 13 mins left. November 2017 - 2-2 Draw, we came from behind twice, Hooper from the spot, then Nuhiu with a last minute leveller. Feb 2019 - 1-0 win, Lucas Joao, last minute winner. Sept 2021 - 1-1 Draw. Dennis Adeniran looked to have netted us all three points before Conor Chaplin equalised in the last minute. Feb 2023 - 2-2 Draw. Smith, Byers put us two up, Broadhead pulled one back just before half time, Leif Davis levelled 8 mins into the second half.
