Does anyone remember a free kick he scored where he's right on the edge of the box so has to dink it more than power it? Went into the top corner. |

Hopefully they cleaned the scope in between.
For anyone who thinks that they might need one, but is anxious about the process, I just wanted to say don’t be. I’m an absolute wuss with pain, easily anxious/panicky, and the idea of someone sticking something down my throat/ up my arse is not a nice one.
It’s absolutely fine. The worst pain was the cannula going in, and the worst feeling in general was the bowel prep they give you the night before to clean your bowels. The sedation works a treat, even if you are a significant drinker or user of other substances.
So yeah, I don’t know who needs to hear this but just don’t worry, get it done, you’ll feel happier that you have. |

Thread | Shared trauma of relegation.
at 12:46 21 May 2024
I’m going to go out on a limb and say that I think it’s actually beneficial that no one in our squad has suffered a relegation from the Prem after being beaten most Saturdays. Leicester and either Leeds/Southampton will have squads full of players who have recent memories of trying and failing to stay in the division. A lot is made of ‘premiership experience’ but I feel that this only really applies when that experience is positive. Our green-ness is being used by some as a factor that increases the chance of relegation, but hopefully the opposite is true. Thoughts? |

Does anyone know
a) what was the lowest league position we dropped to? I think 3rd but perhaps it was 4th?
b) what was the maximum amount we were behind Leeds by, in terms of points?
Thanking you all greatly x

Neil Thompson’s free kick against Portsmouth I think? I have in my head that he made it 3-2, but might have been 2-1. He had a decent left peg on him. Did Taricco take his place in the team or am I mixing eras? |

More than normal. Is anyone else the same?
I don’t know if it’s a case of not wanting this season to end, or because after a few months of stress/hope/expectation, I can finally watch Championship games with zero of those feelings. Or maybe it’s because Norwich have a 75-% chance of losing and I just want to see them cry on the TV?

about the Stockport 8000 for a while. Who was at that match and also at the Huddersfield match on Sat. There must be a few of you who were.
Bonus points if you also went to the Anglo Italian cup game against Salernitana..? |

I feel a primeval need to be as close to the action as possible, but I virtually never spend time in Ipswich other than at PR. |

Thread | I’m mentally preparing for one more twist.
at 10:26 3 May 2024
Conceding an early goal for example, which may or may not be accompanied by Leeds scoring (I don’t think they’ll win btw). I honestly think my psyche is slightly marked by the late 1990s playoffs. Always feeling so close but not quite there. I fully admit it is pessimistic thinking, and last seasons final home match 6-0 win at PR is a far better indicator of whether this squad has the mentality to get over the line than how a bunch of long retired players performed a quarter of a century ago.
I’m not expecting this to make a huge amount of sense, just saying what’s on my mind. COYB! |

In that time we’ve had 3 new Phils and 6 new Gavs.
But who can go back further than 1999? It must be a few of you, I seem to remember it being pretty well established (and more polite) even back then in the relatively early days of the internet. |

But Southampton play FOUR times before we next play a match. What odds that they will be above us by the time we kick of on evening of the 27th?
I can’t lie, it’s got me a little worried. |

I’m a little nervous about tonight. And the weekend actually. I might be wrong but I feel like we need 6 points from those two, otherwise it’s advantage Leeds/Leicester.
I know I shouldn’t think like this- we’ve seen both of our rivals slip up recently, and there’s no reason they won’t do it again*. But I feel we need to go into the Hull and Coventry games being happy with a point in each. Don’t want to be chasing the game.
* I actually can’t see Leeds having many bad days between now and the end of the season. But Leicester look shaky as fcuk and you can make an argument for them losing any of their next 4. |

Just a quick ask around. Are you guys even checking the 7th place team to see how far we are away from not getting a play-off place? Or do you feel it’s absolutely locked in? I’m still checking but perhaps I’m being hopelessly pessimistic. Thoughts? |

Thread | Satellite/Aerial tv help.
at 19:36 7 Nov 2023
I’m about to demonstrate my lack of electrical know-how, and probably basic intelligence.
I’ve just moved into a new house. The living room has two cables that look to me like standard aerial cables. I believe they are called coaxial cables. They are coming into the house from a dish attached outside, so maybe not your standard aerial cable after all. I’ve tried connecting each one to the aerial input on my tv. I’ve tried both cables, and I’ve tried it on two different TVs, so I don’t think my TV is the problem. I just get a ‘no signal’ error each time. What am I doing wrong? How can I find out if the dish itself is faulty? And why do I have two cables, where would I attach the other one given my TV has only one inlet that fits.
Thanks in advance! |

About January strengthening.
Who would you pick if you had to list 1 (or more) regular starters that are our weakest players?
So I’d probably pick Harry Clarke. I love the guy but if he’s included in our first 11 I’d say he’s probably the weakest from that 11? What do you all think? This is not about whether a player is good enough for the Championship, and it’s certainly not an attempt to knock HC. But even prime Barcelona had a weakest player. I’m really asking only about the 12-13 players who could be considered genuinely regular starters.
