Did our excellent goalkeeper data analysis system suggest the WBA keeper?
at 12:01 3 Feb 2025

Or have we gone for a bit more of an old school/analogue approach with this one?

A tale of two Manchesters for us
at 18:13 2 Feb 2025

Man Utd did a good job earlier today of making losing by two goals at home to Crystal Palace look like not too bad a result for us.
Arsenal on the other hand are making a six goal home defeat to City look like a terrible result.

Wrexham have signed an experienced goal scorer
at 10:08 1 Feb 2024

According to https://www.ntt20.com/p/efl-january-transfer-deadline-day-signings they're splashing more of the cash on one Jack Marriott.

He's done alright at the level he's comfortable at over the years since we binned him.

Was anyone else following the Notts County v Grimsby score on Saturday
at 17:26 15 Jan 2024

as they travelled to our game? Absolutely bonkers 5-5 draw with two goals from David McGoldrick, the second of which was surely the winner to make it 4-5 in the 90-somethingth minute only for a great equaliser by a Grimsby sub in the 90-somethingth plus minute

Here are the highlights - best bit is how Grimsby really should have worked out where the Notts' danger was coming from and tried to stop it (that bloke's now got 16 assists already this season).

QPR have made 29th December a bit more interesting
at 10:49 1 Nov 2023

Are we going to get the two toughest home tests of the season in consecutive games?

McKenna ball against the new QPR manager’s approach could just lead to two teams trying to draw the other’s press onto them so they can play it out from the back and quickly get up the pitch to create chances. Will it be the ultimate expression of modern tactics resulting in everything collapsing in on itself and a rupture in the time/space continuum?

Or will Cifuentes not have had enough time to turn André Dozzell into the Championship Xavi, making us lucky to play them early in his tenure?

As ever Loft for Words has an entertaining and informative piece on their new manager.

New York accommodation advice wanted.
at 16:35 10 Oct 2023

Planning a wedding anniversary trip to New York around this time next year.
Historically, there's been loads of New York travel-related advice on here but most of it pre-dates the pandemic and the city's recent crackdown on unlicensed AirBnB rentals.
Does anyone have any post-pandemic advice on which parts of New York to stay in for a first timer and recommendations for hotels/accommodation rentals please?
We'd like to do most of the usual things - Central Park, Ellis Island, MoMA, go up a tall building etc. and there will be just the two of us.
Thanks

Rather than apologise to two callers who you didn't have time to fit in after the game, why not tell shameless self publicist Frank, who doesn't go to games, that he's not going to have the opportunity to bore the listeners senseless this week.

Wembley Stadium travel
at 18:21 15 Jun 2023

What’s the best way to travel to and from Wembley Stadium this Saturday from Braintree area? Wife and teenage kids are going to see Harry Styles. Had an email from Ticketmaster discouraging the use of Wembley Park and Wembley Stadium/Wembley Central are less convenient if going into Liverpool Street/Stratford.

Public transport preferred but driving part way is possible, or being collected from somewhere in outer London afterwards by car (if getting public transport in that direction afterwards is easier).

Thanks

Interesting article on the decision to relinquish a season ticket
at 10:44 24 Apr 2023

It's by Watford supporting Guardian journalist Simon Burnton and I guess reflects quite a few people's thoughts about Ipswich in the last years of the Evans era.

https://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2023/apr/24/watford-season-ticket-fans

Maybe Watford need to drop a bit lower like we did before they start the long climb back towards the top. It certainly feels good when you get the sense your club is back travelling in the right direction.

There's some good stuff in the comments too.

Attending Lincoln game following self-isolation
at 16:37 28 Dec 2021

Having tested positive for Covid on 23rd December I have been told by NHS Test/Trace to isolate until 29th.

I have a ticket for the Lincoln game on New Years Day so checked the NHS app earlier to see the Covid passport I created in time for the Sunderland game (which I didn’t attend in the end) and downloaded to my phone is still valid. It tells me I can’t use an existing pass, or create a new one following my positive test, until 3rd January.

However the requirements for entry to the game are “proof of full vaccination via a COVID Pass or a negative lateral flow test which has been administered no earlier than 48 hours before kick-off.”

I did a lateral flow test this morning — negative. So, assuming I continue to test negative for the next 4 days can I attend the game by showing the test result rather than the Covid pass? That would be in keeping with the letter of the requirements, is it in the spirit of them?

Does anyone know how the possible takeover will be funded?
at 14:44 3 Mar 2021

One thing I haven't seen discussed is whether the takeover will load a pile of debt onto the club as happened recently at Burnley and was how the Glaziers took over Man Utd. Or are the potential investors using their own money, or money they're borrowing themselves?

That could make or break it for me.
