It was a mistake. Like buying Phillips was a mistake. But booting Cancelo out and buying Haaland weren’t mistakes. We make mistakes, we make a lot, we make far fewer than many other clubs and we get more things right than wrong but they still happen. Selling Palmer was a mistake, that’s okay...

Did you know that not a single rugby league player has ever been knighted? Not Dave Valentine, the first Brit and only Scotsman in any sport to lift a World Cup (in 1954). Not Eric Ashton, the first Brit in any sport to lift a World Cup for the second time (in 1960). Not Clive Sullivan, the...

Leeds band, Van Houten The Tallest Room (Expanded Edition), is probably my pick for 2024.

Pep on Palmer; ‘We have Cole Palmer who is going to be an exceptional player. Cole has a special quality in front of the box, a talent that is difficult to find. When he has the ball there, most of the time it ends up in the net. It’s difficult to find that’.

Even to the point that he’s a Wythenshawe lad who spend thirteen years at City. His thread should be lively because we’re happy for a City academy local lad being such a brilliant player. It’s not like he’s Morgan Rogers who we got from West Brom and he spent a couple of years with us. How many...

He did have the patience and was happy to wait for his time in the first team. He wanted to do that by going out on loan so he’d be more ready for first team when he came back from the loan (think it was going to be Burnley under Kompany for a season). Going out on loan when you’re young at a...

Circumstances and hindsight are wonderful things, but it doesn’t make it any less true.

I don’t really see it in McAtee, he’s already 22 and I’ve never been that impressed with him. I thought he looked at his level at SheffUtd in the Championship. Really good for our Academy that we’ve produced another player at that level, but you can see he’s not going to be top class. With...

It’s just typical. We went to their place about four years running and didn’t score a single goal despite having over 100 shots, which was about four times as many as they managed, and we lost every game.

Always a great fixture this going back years.

Porro, you uncommitted shithouse!

Everyone stopped there, the offside player clearly affected play. Game has to stop!

Add that and a proper leader at the back and a few more years so they were all a bit older, and they’d be a serious team.

Bissouma didn’t put a foot wrong at the Etihad the other week.

They live in Old Trafford?

Chelsea are playing excellently.

Doesn’t every game; ‘FERNANDEZ’

I missed the lineups at the start and only just realised that keeper is Forster. Must be older than Carson that fucker.

Try it though: run, lunge your leg forward and see what you do with your arms naturally…

He lunged his leg forward at that moment to try and nick the ball. Natural for your arms to go out doing that. Completely accidental.
