His record at home is pretty good though so he must understand something! Don't think he has lost one so far?* * Fleetwood game just jinxed :)

Saturday was really poor and we just looked flat but I don't think where they live has any bearing on their performance; they would all have known from a quick look at the table to know how important the game was, derby game or not. Not defending the performance but to be fair to the same...

Ash, Can you confirm which Pier the cruise leaves from? The post says Festival Pier but your text says Westminster Pier. Cheers 👍

Birmingham City - 1-3, 1-7, 0-2, 0-1 and 1-1. I even went to St Andrews when we played Coventry there under Grayson Mark 2 - we were 2-0 up and coasting but managed to lose 3-2.

Until I watched the season goal highlights, I had completely forgot that Matty started in the first game of the season and put the cross in that lead to the goal. With the benefit of hindsight with how our midfield problems panned out over the season, it might have been better keeping him...

Knobbers for me - always feels a bit odd walking to an away game!

He was a good championship player last season as he operated in a system that played to his strengths. This season he has suffered like the many of the team. For large parts, he was playing in a midfield 3 with Carey and Patino resulting in him doing the defensive duties of 3 which is...

I went to watch Ipswich 3 times under McCarthy in his final season as my friend is a TB. They won 2 and drew 1 of the games - in these games, Ipswich looked organised and, whilst not exactly playing flair football, looked very capable. If memory serves me right, Ipswich finished mid-table and...

Stayed at the KK Opera Hotel which is a decent hotel in a really good location. As it is next door to the Opera House, we actually went to an evening performance of whatever was on - tickets were reasonably priced but it wasn't our thing so we left at the interval. A beautiful building and you...

Always thought Hardie looked a prospect when he first signed for us although he was a bit lightweight and off the pace - I thought this would improve with game time. He wasn't used very often by Simon Grayson and the loan move was a sensible decision at the time for both parties. As it...

Home Kit 1982-83 I think? Loved this shirt.

I had never seen us win at home to Stoke until McCarthy masterminded a truly brilliant performance this season😉

In order: Everton - think that their a big club but done nothing recently. Man Utd - Ferguson and his constant whinging when they lost. Tranmere - the darlings of the NW TV stations for years whilst every other NW club barely got a mention. Sheff Wed - Think that they are bigger and better than...

Played Rotherham 11 times since we last beat them in 1997. Drawn 3, Lost 8. Goals for 5, against 17. Lost the last 5 on the bounce.

It would be really interesting to know what went on the summer with regarding his appointment but I guess that we will never find out. Of course, they will all maintain a united front that he was the best choice etc.. otherwise they would undermine each other but the whole appointment was...

Our home form is terrible, our away form not much better, just can't see us getting 8 wins to give us a chance. Also, I think 45 points is too low a target but hope that I am wrong. The next 3 home games are crucial to keep us in with a shout but I am not too optimistic - Huddersfield have a...

Also, I can't remember who made the comment, but the feeling of deflation when the team was announced. The positive atmosphere of the journey down and a few beers just drained away - at this point, I cursed my friend that had checked the team list and pined for the old days when you had no idea...

First time I have listened to it and really enjoyed. Raggy made 2 really good points - the first one is referred to by the OP and the second one was regarding the choice of a potential new manager. None of us are involved in professional football and have no idea who is available, whose...

The pricing was right - even if it was cheaper not many more would have attended. I understand that the opponents weren't different but early in the season when optimism was a bit higher and the weather better, we charged £10 for the Barrow game and probably only about 4k home fans turned up...

Have to agree, I don't think either would be missed much. Fiorini started off quite well and looked promising but, as you say, has not played since August due to injury. Interestingly, he was stood behind me at the Wigan game and I spoke to him at Half-Time. He said that he was fit and raring...
