Leeds away now on BT Sport, 12.30ko

Might suite us as the home support for these slots less of a factor quite often.

 

Wished Spurs at home was a midweek or late weekend KO.

Annoying it’s another night match at Woodison so their crowd will be more involved. Feels like we hardly ever play them at the weekend.

 

Haven't played them there on a Saturday for almost 13 years. Had 2 Sundays since then though, the last of which was in early 2015. All others have been midweek or Monday nights.

Ben Arfa game then? That’s absolutely incredible. We play them disproportionately a lot at home midweek too based on my anecdotally poor memory.

 

It’s probably last season being a cloud but I’d much prefer a 3pm against them this season than another night game. Guess we’ll just have to hope that speccy lad isn’t about.

I agree but I actually don't mind it this time around, I'm going with my brother and will be on the piss in Liverpool with my Everton mate from my undergrad uni from the early afternoon. :lol:

 

But aye, Ben Arfa game was the last time we played there on a Saturday.

I think it's because the PL pairs clubs that are close geographically on the fixture list for midweeks and Boxing Day, hence why our record on Boxing Day is fairly lifting as we've often got the Manchester clubs or the Liverpool clubs. Same with midweeks, but the last time we played Everton at Goodison Park in the daytime with fans allowed in the ground John Carver was in charge, our attacking 4 was Obertan, Sammy Ameobi, Gouffran and Riviere and I was 14 ffs. :lol:

:clap:exemplary and let’s hope hope you have as a good day and night as I did at the Ben Arfa game.

 

Been to 2 aways this season, 1-4 and 1-2 wins at Fulham and Forest so fingers crossed. Looking forward to the bewws for Gordon as much as the day itself. :lol:

Allan struggling to make an impact on the National League, Young can't get a sniff at Wycombe. If ever there was proof something needs to change within the academy....

Joelinton and Schär should be in there.

 

Joelinton is in the community one, didn't get an in form but has been consistent this season so he's in that. Agree on Schär, he's been better than Botman this season overall.

Why's everyone still blind to Schär but rave about Botman at the same time? I honestly don't get it :lol: Literally every player in our back 5 getting plaudits except the most consistently excellent player.

Probably because Brucey didn't rate him and you knar, you don't get to manage 1000 games without knowing what you're talking about, that's for sure.
