    McClaren told a reporter his wife has already started looking at houses out there


    “Jamaica?”


    “No she chose to go “

    McClaren had an offer to manage the Indonesian football team, so his wife travelled out to the Indonesian capital, to see what it was like.

    "Jakarta?"

    "No she went by plane"

    Someone once asked him:

    “D’you know the state capital of Alaska?”

    And he replied

    “You’re right”

    For some reason, I thought Nome was the state capital so I was struggling until I remembered the actual state capital :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    Every championship game today kicking off at 12:30. Ridiculous.

    Cardiff v Sunderland and Boro v Swansea stand out in particular as an absolute joke for the away fans.

    Leeds v Pompey really is the devil and the deep blue sea.

    Don’t know if it’s for all leagues, but just seen a short video about changes this season and it says that team sheets will now be declared 75 minutes before kickoff instead of 60.
    Gives us more time to complain about the lineup before the game starts.

    Oxford in the lead. They did look good against us. This year’s Ipswich?

    Last time back to back promotions was achieved it happened in consecutive seasons (Norwich then us) so perhaps it'll happen again.

    Be some coincidence if it was the blue few. Norwich and Saints then their rivals just over a decade later.

    Not sure Norwich at home is a good barometer of how good Oxford are tbh. Think the Canaries are gonna struggle this season. Midfield is light and central defence is abject.
