If we do get CL - and it’s a big “if” as Man City will improve and Forest seem to be pulling a lite version of Leicester 15/16, then this has to be the year we cement ourselves as a proper regular top 5 club. I would expect a transformational summer for the squad.

With Bruno not playing the semi I’d be tempted to give Joelinton a rest. We’ll set up to hit Spurs on the transition with their high line so it’s an ideal game to play Willock in.

Reduced to two games. Of course he’s back for our game

Indeed, again.

What a lovely day for a dog walk and some Manchester United podcasts.

Not a bad place for a motm debut from Khusanov

Sensational 35 mins. Sloppy last ten. Next goal is massive.

Trialling a VAR change in the semi final of the cup ffs.

I totally forgot 8 but somehow remembered Guiseppi Rossi who didn’t make the top 10

There were rumours a while back that they wanted to start the Hundred franchise at Durham.

We all know how this goes. Same as the West Ham home game. 2-0 defeat.

Wonder if we’ll see Botman in the squad. Probably more likely to be Spurs and then maybe some pitch time against Bromley.

Dennis Bergkamp likes this.

Be a disaster for us if they sack Impostacoglu before next weekend.

What a ridiculous tackle that was

Think we could get through a few months without a replacement if he did go. Angel Gomes on a free would be a decent option.

What a beautiful day for a dog walk and listening to some Aston Villa podcasts.

Yeah so basically if it had been Bruno’s goal, it would have been disallowed and fair enough. But because the deflection off Bruno was going wide and it hit the defender then technically it’s an own goal (if it was going in it would have been Bruno’s goal and rightfully disallowed). Theres no way there is any way they could have checked that because it was an instantaneous decision, it took me a good few replays to find one to confirm it was going wide.

The check was over in seconds so I bet they didn’t even look at that part of it.

Something that annoyed me a little bit is that I think Bruno’s goal should have stood. If the ball had gone in directly off his arm then yes disallow it, but the sizeable deflection off the defender on the post after Bruno’s touch actually turned the ball in. The deflection from Bruno’s arm was going wide and therefore the goal would have been deemed an OG rather than a Bruno goal, meaning his touch was an “assist” rather than him being the goal scorer.

Getting one or two signed in January could be the difference between CL football and no European football at all - the league is that tight. Here’s hoping we can find something suitable.

Got my boy the third shirt and it’s bobbled to fuck after one day too
