Reply | What are the best “one man chants” you’ve ever heard?
at 14:03 31 May 2025
Repartee rather than a chant. I cannot remember the team or the player, but it was back in the seventies. An opposing defender with a particularly prominent nose tried to head the ball and it hit him on said proboscis. One guy near me shouted out 'You should get a boot for your nose'; immediately another old guy in the crowd responded 'They don't make 'em that big!'. |

I don't see him as a right back because, as others have pointed out, he does occasionally switch off and lack awareness of who is around him. But I think that in front of Tuanzebe or another solid right back, he is a competent right-sided utility player who works hard, is good in transition, and has an exceptional eye for a long crossfield pass. I'm happy to have him in the team in the role he played against Bournemouth. |

I started having increasingly frequent and painful episodes of gout a few years ago. I have a reasonably healthy diet (though I do like the cheese), and I don't like taking pills, but I went on Allopurinol and haven't had an episode in years. Allopurinol seems quite benign, I haven't experienced side effects, and it's the only tablet I take. |

My team would be
Palmer.
O'Shea, Wolfie, Greaves
Johnson, Phillips, Cajuste, Davis.
Hutchinson, Broadhead or Philogene.
Delap
We need an attacking team, and Johnson and Davis provide that extra spark going forward. But we have to be defensively solid against rapid attacks down the wing. Johnson can make some great defensive interceptions, but can also get caught out on occasional, so O'Shea's speed and positional awareness should help mitigate against that. |

Reply | No away point for Coventry apparently
at 22:25 26 Jan 2025
I was on 19 after Soton. Couldn't get anything after that - on at 10am each time, but everything would go within a few seconds in the 15-19 point range. My old fingers just not fast enough. |

This is an illogical decision which only punishes those who played fair. I couldn't go to the Wimbledon game, so didn't purchase a ticket. I have been stuck on 19 points, unable to go to away games since Southampton. Some of those who cheated will have achieved 20 points and can now go to most away games. The fair solution, as others have pointed out, would be to award a point, but remove it if the person doesn't attend. |

I got one also from my daughter and family. Also the James Caird lifeboat. Brilliant present. I'm a fan of the great man, and my Crossword Setter pseudonym is Shackleton. |

Reply | Muric in Premiership team of the week
at 16:19 18 Dec 2024
I don't get the negativity around Muric. He ranks first in High Claims in the premier league, 50% ahead of David Raya. He ranks fourth in saves. We have not so far conceded a goal from a corner which is astonishing given our largely League 1 defence. Many opposing fans despair that their corners go straight to Muric. He has come up with some incredible saves in several matches. Errors are always magnified when it comes to goalkeepers; yes he has made some errors of judgement, but that's what coaching is for. The qualities he brings to the team far outweigh any negatives. We should all get behind him. [Post edited 18 Dec 2024 16:20]
