    Match Day Thread Preston North End vs Norwich City Saturday 20th December 12:30

    The price you pay for the TV money and the TV money has meant that the English game and league structure is the strongest in Europe. Over here in France there is little TV money which means anything below Ligue 1 is irrelevant and your Clubs fate in that league depends on the owners financial...

    Is Duffy still carrying an injury or, hopefully, completely out of the calculation?

    I accept what you say to some extent but is the refusal to accept ' don't ask again ' an upgrade blip or a deliberate ploy? What improvement would you say this upgrade has achieved?

    On top of now having Clement we also seem to have a fitter squad. How Manning couldn't get them fit in a full pre-season I do not know nor can I understand why Knapper didn't intervene as well. Looking back, the Bristol City fans gave Manning no credit for getting them into the top 6 but praised...

    And if you answer ' don't ask again ' guess what? You are asked again next day!! I have now also discovered that I am not being notified of further posts on threads I have been involved in. If this so called upgrade was intended to encourage more participants you might find it has the opposite...

    I agree that things are improving now but I can't understand the theme developing that Knapper isn't that bad after all. He has two main jobs - sign new players and hire/fire Head Coaches. If the players turn out to be better than originally thought then the Head Coaches he appointed were poor...

    Completely agree especially as at the same time as the new set-up are trying to get them fit they are also having to play two games a week. Yet the person who has overseen this and other shambles, Knapper, sits in his cosy office apparently unaffected by the mess that has ended up with NCFC in...

    Presumably, without asking any users, a person with a degree in 'f***ing things up' decided this was what we wanted.

    It does need something to get new members when you look at the number of teams which have never got started and, more concerning, the teams that did get started and have just faded away. I am sure that we have nowhere near the number of active participants on our board that we once had and you...

    Didn't see the reason to change. Nothing wrong with the way it was.

    Might be signs of a new clampdown. Lots of people in our area were fined 500 euros for watching a stream of the recent game of Nice v PSG and reports of prosecutions in Germany for watching streams of Arsenal v Bayern.
