Premier League statues - quite the mixed bag?!
at 12:07 27 Apr 2025

As discussed by Phil and Jim on this week’s Video Verdict (below), the St James’ Park bronze of Sir Bobby is not the finest! Ronaldo statuesque.

Our own Sir Bobby statue to us being far superior. With perhaps the Beattie and Sir Alf figures better still.

There have been many other bad renditions seen on the road this season - including Shearer yesterday. Jury out on the shiny shiny metal ones at the Etihad. Some ‘mid’ renditions at the Emirates including Tony Adams. The trinity statue at Old Trafford perhaps the best scene?

Wikipedia have a list:

What’s the best/worst you’ve seen?

The addition of Darren Currie is genius
at 20:08 27 Mar 2025

Is he one of the most gifted players we’ve seen put on a town shirt? Well in terms of close control!!

BUT, and it’s a huge but, he was so slow and lacking agility that he used much of his obvious skills to compensate for his lack of pace.

He was good to watch though. The highlights vid below doesn’t have many goals! But the close control and movement is a joy:

Borough Market is blue!
at 13:18 8 Mar 2025

Town fans are everywhere around London Bridge ahead of the game.

And there is optimism!

Old King’s Head by far the best singing - a rousing Ebeneezer Brown.

We’ll start tonight’s Video Verdict with some footage of these scenes.

Look out for the show tonight, released as Wolves lose (ahem), and take part in Homer’s 3 words to drive the views.

TWTV Video Verdict - Aston Villa

Yes, sorry blueasfook but “I like potatoes” was always going to be a difficult one to squeeze some game analysis around.

Keep going - your username needs more airtime. WeWereZombies always a good one - is it a match summary or username?!

Surely there should be a prize for the best of the week?! We’ll get Phil to raid the TWTD piggy bank.

THANKS all, many will feature on tonight’s ’Ipswich Self Help Group’
at 18:14 1 Feb 2025

Sorry, I mean ‘TWTD Video Verdict’ on YouTube.

As always the 3 words thread is a perfect prompt on elements of the game and season.

Plus Phil will provide insights from McKenna’s discussion of the game.

City fanatic Sean Riley - insights on City season, prediction and cheat code
at 16:18 19 Jan 2025

We’ve an interesting pre-match interview - down by the marina - with Man City fanatic and author Sean Riley (was he also in the Happy Mondays?!).

He unpacks their season and current rebuild. Links Pep to Sir Bobby.

Give it a watch tonight alongside the Video Verdict of the match.

He predicts 1-1 (we’d take that) - caveat he thought Haaland and Dias may not start.

His cheat code is they are slow in central midfield and their defence cannot handle pace and direct runners.

Hopefully Clarke, then Philogene and Broadhead can get service. And get at them.

Bumper show, lots of insights from Kallum and Phil on game but also transfer window dealings and survival league prospects.

Which team is most likely to be the third team to finish below Town?
at 21:38 15 Jan 2025

Good point Bugs, worth referencing tomorrow - they remain in the betting for a points reduction based relegation. But for the poll let’s consider on-pitch performance and quality of these near rivals.

What a glorious night and performance under the lights at Portman Road, joyous.

If you’ve not watched the show before, or found some of the early efforts not up to standard - do give it a(nother) go. Includes some good discussion of survival chances and the January transfer window with Phil, as well as some good footage of the Blue Action pre-match procession. And of course the usual 3 word summaries from the forum.

Difficult game and a collective no-show from the Town players.

Thanks for your three words this week, which drove some good discussion with Phil in this week’s Video Verdict (third segment from 19mins). Especially the Muric centric 3 word descriptions.

Alan Lee has some good insights also. Give it a watch:

So much better for the TWTV team to pick out some of these, helping to summarise the game and the emotion - after a much needed and glorious away win

Ryorry is on fire!
