Thread | Southampton and Leicester
at 19:04 8 Apr 2025
Lots of talk this week about how bad these two teams are.
- Southampton being the earliest team to be relegated.
- Leicester having 8 home defeats without scoring a single goal.
Sobering to think that we haven't managed to beat either of these teams this season.
We really need to beat Leicester away to regain some pride. |

Thread | BAXTERBASICS....
at 16:39 4 Apr 2025
I was listening to the KOA podcast today (Ep 532).
In the first 5 mins of the pod, I noticed that Stuart Watson mistakenly says 'baxterbasics' and then corrects himself to 'back to basics'.
.....did he unwitting reveal his TWTD pseudonym?
(probably not).

Thread | The Playford Road car park must be a sight to behold....

Muric in his £180k Bentley Bentayga.
Godfrey in his £200k Lamborghini Urus.
Kalvin in his £300k Rolls Royce.
What else gets parked there? I guess a load of boring Range Rovers?
I used to go round John Warks house as a kid, during his 3rd spell at Ipswich. He had been top scorer for Liverpool, and he had an Audi 80 and a Suzuki Samuri in his drive!! [Post edited 1 Apr 17:41]

What was the talk on here yesterday about him being sent back to Atalanta?
I guess he can't go back mid loan. |

Thread | That Ratcliffe interview...
at 14:13 11 Mar 2025
Seems to claim he didnt know about the removal of the £40k former players fund, and wasnt aware of any alternatives.
....and 'the club would be bust by Christmas' narrative is utter nonsense. That just means the OWNERS would have to invest a little more money, it wouldnt have folded!!

Thread | The five subs rule....
at 09:28 27 Feb 2025
Although PSR is a big handicap, I do think the 5 subs rule makes it almost impossible for promoted clubs to compete.
When it was a 3 subs limit, the bench wasn't nearly as tactically dangerous as it is now.
If we manage to compete with an established team for 60 mins, they can just bring players worth £20-£40m off the bench!! |

Thread | Blue Monday - 900th episode - Special Edition
at 12:24 21 Feb 2025
This is my go to ITFC podcast, and has been for years, through the bad times and the good.
I was listening to the Spurs podcast (EP902), and Rich and Seb mentioned that the 900th episode was a Special Edition that was only released to the Telegram members.
I could be wrong, but I'm sure Ben says listeners will never have to pay for Blue Monday pods.
Rich did mention that it may be released to non Telegram members at some point. Hopefully thats the case.
I understand the need to monetise, but the non Telegram members do bring a critical mass that helps attract sponsors etc. Some non Telegram members will have donated via Super Chat.
Its a great pod, but I've no interest in joining a Telegram group to access content. |

Thread | The Price of Football Podcast - Debunking Jim RATcliffes claims.
at 12:52 20 Feb 2025
The Rat has tried to claim that mass redundancies and doing away with kids and pensioners ticket price concessions is needed.
However, Utd have:
The highest EBITDA in the Premier League.
The lowest wage to turnover ratio in the Premier League (55%).
They have the biggest stadium and get the most media attention, so it makes sense that they have more staff than most to service those departments.
Since Fergie left, THEIR NET SPEND IS £1.5 BILLION. That IS the highest in the Premier League.
The reasons for their losses is solely down to extremely poor player trading.
I so hope we beat them in a couple of weeks. I used to have a bit of a soft spot for them as their team of the 90's was such a joy to watch, but I cant stand them now.

Thread | Patrick Barclay passed away.
at 13:13 14 Feb 2025
Sad to see. Always enjoyed his views, and he was great to listen to.
Very balanced and pragmatic in his reporting, which is fairly rare to see. [Post edited 14 Feb 13:16]
