Last season in League 1, 6 clubs exceeded £1m in player purchases. Wycombe spent £1.5m Peterborough spent £3m but recouped £7m Charlton spent £1.2m but recouped £900k Huddersfield spent £5m but recouped £6m. The other 2 were Wrexham and Birmingham. The league as a whole had a nett spend of £16m. Bi...
Vic is that certain type of person (we all know lots of them) who is totally unable to hold an objective conversation about something that they don't 'like'. It's the 'STG' effect. I don't 'like' Cristiano Ronaldo. The preening, the tantrums, the stupid free kick process. But I can see that he is o...
Vic, you were the one who bought Beckham into the conversation when talking about stars of Real Madrid and claimed he didn't start that many games, and I proved you wrong as he started 90% of the games he was available for them. No one has said anything else or claimed to say anything else. You're ...
Scintillating world class performance by Liverpool in the first 30 minutes yesterday and they were very close to being 3 up after 20 minutes. A game of 2 sections:- First 30 minutes all Klopp style The remainder Slot style with his team controlling the game. Loved the interview with captain marvel a...
I do think I'm going to have to accept now that this is Liverpool's title to lose. If they fail to get over the line from here, it will only be by losing four or five matches, because other teams won't go perfect. Not that they look like failing at the moment - in the last few weeks, the German cha...
Royals and Racers We are ball 62 in tomorrow’s draw.
Will be watching with interest. I wonder if those that posted about this game being unimportant and not caring about the result will crawl out of the woodwork if we end up with a glamour draw.
Slapped down at every turn yet still Vic tries to find an argument over whether Beckham was a ”great” which wasn’t even suggested. And then has the nerve to suggest the poster who has slapped him down is just a young hero-worshipping whippersnapper with no long-term knowledge of the game.. Classic ...
Completely agree. We should be putting this to bed early on then hoping for a nice third round tie to bring some money in. So, we will either mess this up or draw stoke away in the third round :D I think our first priority has to be to protect what few experienced senior first team players we have....
Just checked with wiki which says that he only played 116 games for Real Madrid and scored 13 goals over 4 seasons in which they won La Liga just the once. The so-called "stellar" career of playing at big clubs led to 29 games only for AC Milan , scoring 2 goals and 10 games for PSG scori...
Second half of the season will be tougher for them once teams start to fully workout Slot's tactics and find one that works against it. On the other hand Liverpool might well improve further as the season progresses and if so , watch out . Interesting about tactics as packed defences have produced ...

Mbappe lol. Not the penalty miss so much as the fact he openly flirted with Real for 3 years, they pay him £300k a week after tax, shift other players about to accommodate him, thereby disrupting their balance and he's an absolute bag of shite. Maybe last night had something to do with playing agai...

Connor Bradley MOTM for me here (still 10 mins to go). He is some player. He has of course been a midfield player so it is no great surprise that he can do things in and around the box. Also his tackle on Mbappe lifted the crowd and the team. Let's hope it was cramp last night rather than the dread...

No expectation of play offs etc either really, but the reality is that more than a third of the way through the season, we’re equal points with 6th place and having played 6 of 7 teams in the top 8 excluding us away from home Who knows? Barnsley weren’t great, none of the teams below us have been p...
A good effort last night and no arguments with the score line which was about right based on chances and play even if our two goals were scruffy . During commentary I thought I heard right that we are 2nd worst in the division , just less than Blackpool, in goals conceded away from home but fortunat...
