Do teams do through investigations on refs too?
at 10:23 19 Feb 2024

What with all the stats and analysis about opposing teams and players I wonder if we as a club have a dossier on refs? I wondered this because when we played West Brom they seemed to know exactly how to get around the ref with dark arts. And basically got away with a lot before the ref took action. The fact that Morsy has 10+ yellows to his name suggests we don't factor this. I wonder what some teams actually do to get the extra 1 or 2 % of decisions.

Welcome display for Mowbray and Venus for Brum match
at 20:37 12 Feb 2024

Supporters of an age will remember probably our last awesome team (prior to current decent side) which had Mowbray and Venus as centre halves. It would be kinda cool if we could do a welcome display for them. Some of us remember how great we were and sending out our appreciation would be the correct thing to do. Can't remember what the young chaps who do these displays is, but hopefully they would consider this.

Hopefully our superior fitness will shine through in the second half. This time we have broad head to come on and show his class.

Hope no. 3 faes doesn't play as well as he did
at 19:49 22 Jan 2024

At Portman Road.

I thought he was superb and kept us at bay. Hopefully he plays centre half and gives Wes the freedom he didn't get in the reverse game.

If undersoil is on...
at 17:08 13 Jan 2024

Watch the smoke come out of the two chimneys where the old turnstiles used to be in churchman's and it all goes back into the ground to make it foggy.

I might be wrong, but I'm sure it happened on both previous undersoil heating uses.

North stand piper
at 11:25 31 Dec 2023

What has happened to the bag pipe player that used to frequent the North occasionally? Can we have him back a couple of times? Or can we make him an honoury fan?

It used to be great when he played in all his glory. It would suit us so much right now.

Good effort from the lads
at 11:27 30 Dec 2023

Awfully close to a win. Begovic kept well.

Fred was ok, went close a couple of times. That was as good as you will see from him in our modern day line up and high press.

Omari did 90% of his work well. He just needs a touch more confidence when in the box. At the moment his final product is just off. But a goals at Portman road will help him so much.

QPR had they been more adventurous might have taken the game. We were there for the taking. But a point is a good result under the circumstances.

Attack North first half
at 18:51 28 Dec 2023

As a rule out team generally goes for it the first 60 minutes of the games, thus there have been so many goals up the churchman's end. Do you think it would be prudent to attack the North first half to get ourselves out of sight by the break. We haven't seen that many goals up the north stand end. I think it would be a cunning idea.

Fred to start v QPR?
at 16:00 27 Dec 2023

I get the feeling Kayden will be rested to start v Stoke and Fred will get the chance to show his worth v QPR. That is assuming we don't have a striker already signed to start on Jan 1st. If that is the case then Kayden starts. The club won't announce anything until after the QPR game at any rate.

Leeds wasn't as bad as we think
at 10:07 25 Dec 2023

Fair enough 4-0 looks like a comprehensive thrashing, but was it really that bad; I don't think so...

First half was a really tight affair. We were not that bad. Leeds had 3 shots on target that half and scored 3. You have days like that where everything goes there way. The bounce of the ball, ref decisions, everything went for them. Hladky only had to make 1 save and that was to keep out the first effort for their first goal. Generally speaking it was an even half, but everything they touched turned to goals.

The second half was dominated by Leeds and yet they only had 1 shot on target and scored. In spite of them playing with confidence they didn't hurt us. We knew the game was over and played within ourselves and rested key players.

I think that result will hurt Leeds more than us. They are going to think they are world beaters and expect to turn up to teams and just beat them. That won't happen. Just look what happened to West Brom since they beat us. They have been awful.

Our team ethos is about working for results and we will continue to do that. Teams won't be able to live with our movement and work rate. There will be 1 or 2 additions in January that will booster us once again. Believe in the system folks, it will work.

They too could not believe what the ref was doing. They stopped short of saying he was home biased, but they were certainly surprised.

Great win.

Do we move the ball too quick for refs to give a pen?
at 06:48 8 Nov 2023

I think refs struggle in our matches mostly because we tire them out by moving through the phases so quickly. I think our style of play makes refs constantly have to make decisions and they take the easy route out and make none. In fairness to our players we didn't feel sorry for ourselves we knuckled down and kept going.

Difficult to see why the ref doesn't give a pen for the handball. You can see why players do it as they know they regularly get away with it. For me the rule needs to change so that the word intent is taken from the rules. Any handball is a foul in my eyes. Can't be wrong then.
