    2023/24 Sean Dyche

    Its not been working for sometime so why does he not change things? How many times does Dyche need to see that a right hand side of Coleman and Young is bad. I have been a supporter of Dyche because stability is important, the club can't afford compensation, and he did a good job with little...

    2023/24 Dele

    I can understand the Beto purchase: he scored goals in Italy and maybe he could have done something similar here. Not a smart move but its logical. Deli Alli was a washout for years at Spurs. He was given plenty of chances by Spurs managers but between the drugs, slowing up and lots of injuries...

    I beseech you Sean not to play Young or Godfrey.

    6 + 2 Point Deductions

    It is being made up as events unfold. CFC sell their property developments to a related party. EFC presumably did not do something similar with the new ground because nobody was interested?

    One of the major differences between the EFC penalty and the Forest one was that Forest co-operated and EFC did not and yet when challenged to specify how, the PL's, reasons were laughable: not sending emails in pdf format, etc There was nothing substantial. There was a massive subjective...

    Dyche's system works well away from home so although there are a few winnable home games, this team cannot create and lacks quality. My bet - if you were to give me odds - is that EFC will pick up points at Chelsea and Luton and drop some home ones against Forest and Brentford.

    6 + 2 Point Deductions

    This entire process is unfair because from the outset there were no clear rules as to the defintion of possible infringements and the accompanying penalties. Plus, there has been a whole raft of subjective announcements: Forest were said to have been afforded a smaller points penalty because...

    2023/24 Sean Dyche

    Getting Dyche last season was the smart move and the best the club could have hoped for. This season his points record will be better than last's. He has had no Chairman to support him plus he has had to handle the points debacle. I get puzzled by his rejection of Patterson, his promotion of...

    "Watch Classic Matches Again"

    I remember swearing at labone for taking such a poor free-kick.

    2023/24 Nathan Patterson

    Patterson's mistakes have been minor infringements compared to Young's mistakes that led to Wolves late goal at home or getting sent off at LFC. Godfrey's penalty at MUFC was horrible as was his inability to head a ball at Brighton or at home against WHU, both times resulting in goals. The...

    2023/24 Nathan Patterson

    My eyes tell me that Patterson is better than Godfrey and Young and the equal of Coleman. The Ashley Young and Godfrey full back idea is a bad one. How many mistakes do they have to make before Dyche wakes up?

    6 + 2 Point Deductions

    Has not the tariff been established? 2 points per season infringement irrespective of the amount? For example, the PL might give Forest a 4 points hit that would be halved on appeal. EFC to get 1 or 2 points.

    Relegation 23/24 Thread

    Re-WindyMiller above, I get annoyed with myself by the pain/pleasure that I derive rushing to find out how Luton or whoever is this years rival have done. It still affects me in my seventies but not as much as when I was a kid on the train back from a defeat at Highbury and got into first class...

    Why do so many footballers die in their seventies?

    EFC have a good defence, ok midfield and a very poor attack. If the corners and free kicks are not productive then Blackadders' cunning plan fails.
