    Chelsea (H) - Sun 4th Jan, 17:30 | PL | Pre-Match Thread

    A must win today now. Hoping for a dominant performance and three points but really the win is all that matters. I'd restore Doku, still feel were finding our feet a little with Reindjers, Cherki and Foden, but there again Doku would probably be a bigger impact from the bench also if needed...

    Stranger Things - The Finale

    Watched it last night with my eldest, a fairly satisfying concussion and the ending is decent, which is probably praise on itself given how many series just fall flat on the finale. A few things I would pick at though Yes, I'm a critical middle aged fart. You should see me...

    Sunderland (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

    Frustrating game, but more impactful could be the fact we had to withdraw several players through injury. Ref seemed very happy to let them leave one on us, and the amount of shirt pulling was ridiculous, but at the end do the day they're unbeaten at home and it showed why. They're not pretty...

    Enzo Maresca "high among candidates" to replace Guardiola if he leaves next summer

    I'd suggest it's far more likely that Chelsea leaked this rumour, to support their decision to get rid, than it is we were having any kind of discussions with him.

    Last Film You Saw

    Took the eldest to see the third avatar film yesterday. Three and a half hours long! Anyway, neither of us were blown away. It's like the longest video game cutscene ever, they mess with their own lore at will, and when the sea creatures started taking with subtitles appearing there were a few...

    Easter eggs

    Only explanation can be that some people incorporate Easter eggs into their diet on a regular basis from January to March/April. Personally can't stand the things, inferior quality and hugely overpriced for the weight you get, I imagine this coming year more than ever many eggs will not be...

    Premier League Games | 30 December '25/1 January '26

    Caicedo booked which means he misses the game with us and can't do his usual hatchet job in midfield.

    General Videogame Thread

    Same for me on GOTY, absolutely fantastic game from the story and gameplay, to the music. I've seen a few people bash it but it mainly seems to be due to the fact that it's turn based and not a first person shooter, and if that's the requirement for some people then fine, but it shouldn't take...

    Nottm Forest (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

    Had to fight for that, against a physical team that bizarrely featured a centre forward who should be wearing a ballet tutu. Shows our growth, last year hugely debatable whether we win that or cave in, shows the squad character. They could have disallowed our winning goal, but gibbs white did...

    Match Thread | Notts Forest vs. Manchester City (27/12/25)

    Wtf is this in-game 'tactical analysis ' from Joe cole? Cut away from the action to show cole pretending he's some mastermind saying he should have passed here instead of there, and make the live game, which is still going on by the way, as tiny as a 1982 portable TV. Quit it TNT

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    And I look forward to seeing whether city choose to take this up and other claims up as defamation under civil law, or as malicious falsehood designed to cause loss, under criminal law.

    This game passed me by on release, but I'm very tempted to splash out on it in the current sales.

    Nottingham Forest (A) - Sat 27th Dec, 12:30 | PL | Pre-Match Thread

    Thank God football is back, and no I don't count the Stretford rats' game last night. For the first time in a few weeks I'm expecting an away win, if we have that hunger and desire then we have to show it today. Can't see a much changed team, but with such a congested fixture list in January...

    Something in your first car that isn't in your current car

    Moss on the windows and around the gaps that, no matter how much you tried, always seemed to resist being cleaned and gave every trip that 'earthy' smell. A choke, essential in winter for starting the thing but also brought to the table a game of jeopardy called 'flood the engine'.

    Antoine Semenyo | Prefers to join City - Ornstein (p73)

    Be interesting to see if he plays for Bournemouth tomorrow, if not then the deal could be imminent as in first couple of days of January, but not sure they can afford to drop him.

    Oscar Bobb

    Logical move for all involved. Should be some interest. Happy for a buy back too. Think he lost the line he was on with his injury, needs regular football to show his true ability.

    Media discussion - 2025/26

    Fly on the wall footage of one of Roy Keane's team talks. Start off in a 4-4-2 Labrador and shift into a Beagle back five under pressure.

    Antoine Semenyo | Prefers to join City - Ornstein (p73)

    I was going to write something about how we're then overstocked in attack. But as I wrote it down, I realised we're not particularly. One has to go, I imagine Bobb as he needs to kick on, be it loan or permanent, but even then counting Reindjers as a forward it's still two per forward position...

    Doesn't Roy Keane own that breed of dog?
