Also, surprisingly, we're the only team in the EFL yet to concede a league goal. Aston Villa are the only other side in the top 4 divisions also yet to concede a league goal, but they play Liverpool tomorrow, so...
Burns was absolutely correct in describing what was happening on the pitch last season, and he's been prepared to give credit where its due this season. Old fella clearly doesn't watch games.
A report that the Royal Albert Hall is resuming posh concerts at 56% capacity which is over 3000, it’s a political decision to stop supporters going to watch sport, not scientific, the Tory scum have always hated football fans, guarantee, the rugger lot will be let in first
And there's an FA Cup tie to be thrown in at some point in late October/early November, hopefully away against some random mining colliery so we can play the kids.
I got so used to starting the FA Cup in the New Year I forgot that we'll be entering it in November instead.
I thought today we moved the ball quicker forward than we have done since Silva, I think under Slutsky we had moments where we did it, the 6-1 v Birmingham was pretty good. Under Adkins, I seem to recall it was a but, but always through Bowen & Grosiki. If we play like we did today for the rest of the season, it could be enjoyable to watch. Although I do understand it’s down to the opposition too. If they set up 11 behind the ball, then it’ll be a lot tougher.
I know, when I read that comment, it didn’t occur to me that it would be the first round until your post.
I thought McCann did ok with his subs today except for the Samuelson/KLP one. Didn't see the point of that one and I don't recall seeing Samuelson touch the ball while was on.
Think it was more a case of switch magennis to the left to help elder more than klp plus he won a few defensive headers, hence why Samuelson was down the middle.
Unfortunately some can't do that. They will no doubt be complaining that Plymouth had more shots and corners than us.
If we carry on in this vein, we will be seen as a 'we'll do them team', that being if we weren't already being a recent Premiership team. Teams will raise their game, frustrate and kick to get a result. It would be great to put more chances away, hopefully it will come. I think we'll shortly batter some team and then as has been said we'll play great and get beat 1-0 by some OG or deflection.
Still taking place. Walton Street, Skirlington market and Hornsea Freeport all open locally tomorrow. If 25,000 turn up at each one they will be allowed in. Likewise all the huge garden centres in the region and all the 24/7 trading supermarkets.
