Anyone know if we are on any channels tonight? Foreign or domestic? I can't see anything

It's on BeIN over here in the states. Should be some internet streams out and about.

No idea. Check Shady's blog in match day forum for links.

I can see it happening, but just don't agree with it. then again I'm one of the misguided few that want us to feature more youth players in PL matches instead of buying talent each year. was excited that we looked to have 3 young players to be featured plenty this season ... but didn't happened. I'll agree I should never run a club since my way would have us competing for the top 4 instead of the title, but that won't stop me from having an opinion



very very true.

however if I have (hypothetically) a 20% chance each to win a couple competitions and one comp pays out tens of thousands of dollars/pounds more than the other and will be frequently used to promote the club world wide, then you can bet your ass I'd risk losing the other comp in order to improve my percentages at winning the more important one.

I see your point but football is a funny old game so teams should grasp any competition their in and go hell for leather to win.

A bird in the hand so to speak

[remember arthur mann]

i know have to give Hart a rest but Caballero is a disaster waiting to happen every time he steps on the pitch

Id definitely start kelechi however as we won't lose because he is on the pitch as long as the rest of the team does their job

Give Joe a rest ,why what's he done ? It's not as though he was run off hhs feet at the swamp !

If Hart gets injured tonight or starts to show signs of another wobble then Pellegrini will get another slating for not resting him in this game.

Just a reminder to my fellow Yorkshire based blues. 10,000 Boro fans will be heading across the M62 this evening, adding to the usual midweek evening traffic chaos.

What a horrible thought
