    Yes tough on him.

    Mind you going 2nd must have shown how limited Salford’s options were !

    Do we get any money for Dennis if Forest stay up which looks likely if they hold on

    Depends on the role

    Club not team Captain and some coaching on how to grow a pair and force the opposition to defend

    He might have a role on the coaching side, but has anyone found out if he wants to play on?

    Yes agree - and be the next temporary coach!

    I think he would much prefer to be a pundit than a Head Coach/Manager

    But he could have an important role for a couple of years if he and Watford want it

    I think he's actually in the category of 'talks ongoing' - probably in an effort to reduce his wages. He has spent a fair bit of time in the injury room this season, so his playing days may be approaching their end.

    If the club wanted a legend on the staff they’d get Gibbsy , Robbo or Lloyd as they are actually qualified coaches.

    But they won’t..

    What an odd thing to say - "It's the best league for Muslims to be in" - I think it's touted as the best league for any footballer to play in. Especially in terms of wages.

    Yes maybe he meant in terms of being accepted and lack of racism compared to other countries given what we have heard about Vinicius Jr in Spain ?

    Hopefully for his sake Everton still are a PL team come Sunday night !

    I'm not so sure about that - off the top of my head, this year there have been investigations into the racial abuse of Saka, Walker-Peters, Son and Toney.

    And in the EFL, some brave but foolhardy idiot racially abused Troy Deeney.

    True.

    Did read about that Palace fan at Spurs the other week - appalling .

    Unfortunately social media doesn’t help as these people can hide behind a screen doing it .

    It's what both the block button and the limit response function are for. I know it can be time consuming & frustrating to have to use them, but it's worth it in the end - your timeline is a lot tidier and friendlier.

    I haven't looked at my block list for a while (mainly because I can't remember how to find it) but it must be about 10K strong now.

    Probably back down to earth for WTE as well - behind 1-2 against Udinese, whose first goal was scored by ex Hornet Zeegelaar.
