Nuno Gomes

Sunderland, Leeds and Sheffield Wednesday in this. We manage 6th.

Loftus Road!!!! Who makes this up? Marginally better that Kenilworth Road and full of prawn sandwich eaters. https://www.888sport.com/blog/football/championship/ranking-best-stadiums-in-the-championship

Home made cheese and onion rolls. Proper pub.

The, thy or thee?

When my son was being coached as an attacking midfielder a lot was said about ‘affecting the game’. What I have seen in the home games he has played he has done too little to justify the perceived fee/wage tag. Far too lightweight and disappears for too much of the game. It’s a no from me.

BBC PENALTY: Bristol Citypublished at 20:19 20:19 Mark Sykes goes down in the Blackburn box under a tackle from Dominic Hyam and the referee instantly points to the spot.

May 2007 one of my favourite games. Noble double gets us promoted v Rotherham

Yes the key to Friday’s win for me; the job we did on both their dangerous wingers and Vyner’s marking of Dewsbury Hall

Juries out from my perspective. I watched him against us for Hull and was not impressed (having thought when he was at Burnley I would have bitten your hand off to sign him). Thought today he took up some good postitions and was positive in the way he looked forward. Felt though he was too easily knocked off the ball.

Lots been said about Manning but today he got the tactics spot on. In particular it was clear he had asked Vyner to man mark Dewsbury Hall and it certainly nullified what is Leicester’s most influential player.

Penalties

Wales holding on

Gordon having a decent debut.

Some debate over the first yellow but the assault on Conway for the second was a straight red as far as I am concerned.

Reading the Southampton thread several poster mention the condition of the pitch. Smacks of looking for an excuse but does a hybrid pitch make that much difference to how the ball behaves?
