    Yes definitely but the acid test would have been an invite to join the ESL? Hummm?

    The last sentence is a bit of an oxymoron tbh; if it's that fractional than you can't say with any certainty that it's correct.

    I'm not sure this one fell into that category tbh but the tech isn't that precise.

    League One playoffs on Tuesday and Wednesday. We'll doubtless be cheering on Pompey. Oh, wait....

    Best thing about not being in the playoffs, it doesn't clash with the Eurovision semi-final on Tuesday.

    You seem to have confused the word “best” with “worst”

    The key for me is that he led with his head and torso, which you can score from. It’s when they give offside for an outstretched sleeve that gets me.

    It was very very close but his body was ahead of the line, just.

    If the Leicester player wasn’t facing forward he would probably have been kept onside by a toe or whatever.

    Would be fantastic if neither Bournemouth, Barnsley or Brentford went up so we could have a chance at getting Danjuma, Henry and Callum Styles.

    Honestly torn on this . My wife’s nephew is a life long cherries fan and there is a friend from work who has followed them all his life .

    I am chuffed for them , honestly .

    but after they came up and all the scummer comments came out ( from people who had said they had no interest in football ) , I was fuming . Still am .

    Yeah,, and parachute payments don't have a distorting affect on the Championship...

    While I'm here, I'll say congrats to the Championship winners 2022 West Brom, and the Championship winners 2023 Norwich

    Nope. Probably 4 of the 6 promotion slots (2 autos and 4 playoffs) at least will be teams that have been in the premier league within the last two seasons, season after season. Doesn't give the rest of us much of a chance. Super league in all but name. Luckily I don't really care about playing in the premier league
