There is a football God after all.

Spot on, including the date. I was in the General at the time in the days when they kept you in for a week after having your tonsils out. Asked to get out early, but the Matron was having none of it.

Haaland missed pen.

QPR v Norwich. Away win Reading v `Luton. Away win Watford v Cardiff Home win Couldn’t care about the rest

Kompany will be off to a bigger club, sooner rather than later.

The defending for the 2nd. Dearie dearie dear.

Looking at replays. Definitely a pen for foul on Bell.

Not one for the purist. We started well and then allowed ourselves to be dragged down to their level.

Perhaps the club have sounded him out and he doesn’t want to stay beyond 3 years? I’ve no idea, but good luck to anyone who believes they can second guess what Nige is thinking.

Max has made three mistakes this season which have cost us. Early on, after replacing Bents, he come charging off his line and missed a punch when we were already losing. He let a shot in against Preston when we were 2-0 up. We won 2-1. And today he let a shot in when we were already losing. None of his mistakes have directly cost us points. He recently signed a long term contract, so the club clearly believes in him Do we need another championship standard keeper to challenge Max. Absolutely. Should we throw him under the bus because of today? I think not.

Eric McMordie. The dirty b*stard who broke Gerry Sharpe’s leg.

There’s always the option of the Met line from Baker St (circle line from Paddo) which has trains to Watford.

Choice of Bell and Mehmeti on the left, Andi and Sykes on the right, Nakhi, Tommy or Cornick thru the middle. Can’t see us signing a “target man” striker, particularly with Palmer Houlden on the horizon as a potential first team addition. I think strengthening priorities will be at the back, in midfield and in goal, not up front.

Nige pre Stoke said he was making good progress. However, if there really is a serious offer on the table, I can’t see the club taking the risk playing him, in what for us, is a series of meaningless games.

“Naismith looked absolutely miles off it and not ready” I thought he looked class.

Cod Army 1 Clod Army 0

Zak. Fast asleep. Fails to cut out the cross ball. Pring was caught afield and agreed doesn’t track back quick enough, but Zak’s was in position and fails to react.

Zak giving it big zzzzzs

King’s made a big difference

Ffs Nahki

Another cock of a referee.

Is this the first time Conway and Bell have started a 1st team game together?

Had to read it twice. It’s not the Gas that’s bought the Fruit Market site, but an investment company they hope will build them a stadium. Typical Gas wet dream stuff.
