"Women in Education earn less..." : Teaching Assistants are the lowest paid classroom staff and almost entirely women. The classifications in thst report are far too widespread and generalised.

That’s not really true though, he dropped our talisman and top scorer Lambert for the very first game of the season. Even the players you listed were dropped in favour of Boruc, Shaw and Yoshida. I think he may well have kept us up but he was sacked because he was simply nowhere near as good a manager as Poch.

God is among us

Care to elucidate?

Great result for the girls today, 2-0 away to Bristol City who are in the playoff spot just 2 points ahead of us now.

This manager couldn't succeed in the Premier League if you put 4 million volts through him This is an ex Premier League manager.

I enjoyed the game. It wasn't the highest quality and there was very little goalmouth action, but it was great to see the wider squad and young guys coming through. The tickets were cheap, so had no excuses with watching the reserves. I'd of put out a wide like that if I was Tonda, although I thought he might gives Charles some more playing time as he has been coming back from injury. There were some negatives. Archer looked poor. His first touch is just not good enough when space is tight. He looks like a league 1 player to me. I thought Jelert looked lightweight. He was extremely passive and nowhere near strong enough for the championship. He improved in the second half, and to be fair Mavadidi didn't expose him but I've no idea who thought he was a better option than Bree. I wasn't impressed by Romeu. He looked slow and can see why he isn't making matchday squads. The same can be said of Long. He isnt good enough for the Championship The positives though outweighed the negatives. The two centre backs looked pretty solid. Bragg looked at home at this level. I was disappointed when Edozie went off. He was exciting and a handful. Azaz continue to show his quality and Larin did some good things before fading. I really liked O'Brien-Whitmarsh when he came on. I liked Aluko for them. Not sure how strong he is defensively, but he's a very talented player with the ball.

Match

Yeah. Under Adkins we were poor when we first went up, as he showed too much loyalty to the championship standard players who had got us up but who clearly weren’t good enough for the top flight (Kelv, Fox, Hooiveld etc), but he looked like he was just starting to steady the ship and get things under control when Poch came in, and when he got canned it felt quite out of the blue. With hindsight it was absolutely the right call, but it felt very harsh at the time. I don’t think he’d have done as well as Poch, but I think he probably would have kept us up.

Armstrong "inspires" Wolves to victory over Grimsby. We're totally getting Wolves in the next round of the cup.

Isn’t he one of us? Just a slob like one of us?

The lack of success, in terms of winning things, is our issue. I can’t think of many clubs of similar size to us who only have one trophy. We really should have won stuff early to mid 80s, got unlucky in 2017, came up against one of the best teams in Europe in the 2003 FA cup final and 79 League cup final. However as a club once Lawrie left we’ve never really had much ambition. Always happy just to be in the top division with the survival is success mantra.

One of the stupidest articles I've ever had the misfortune of reading.

Having watched that one I reckon it's actually supposed to be some sort of 'wind up'.

It’s ridiculous that this is still an issue in this day and age. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/feb/15/gender-pay-gap-persist-30-years-uk-tuc

Check his hard drive

He's a DJ. We all know that.

Wasn’t that a Sting lyric?

He's fine for the FA Cup against Grimsby.

Earlier in the season, playing off Stewart against Norwich, I thought there could be a role for him in the team, but his subsequent performances have been absolute dross. I don't buy in to the 'lacks confidence' argument. His touch is awful, he can't hold up the ball, he doesn't seem to fight for the ball in the penalty area and those misses against Leicester were classics. Hopefully we've seen the last of him.

What if god is an alien?

Arma given the ball by the opposition keeper, about 15 yards out, blazes it over

Church bells? 🙂

Despaired at the level of respect he's shown to the FA Cup. I don't buy in to this 10 people needed to be rested for the next league game in a week's time. And when someone like Edozie plays well and looks like he's going to cause more trouble to Leicester, he gets hooked off. As a Leicester fan said: Leicester can't even beat a team trying to lose". He lost a lot of winnable games over Christmas and his substitutions made the team worse. He realised he had to change something and stumbled across a four at the back set up - which most of this forum has been asking for for ages. And now, having a presence in midfield and Stewart playing again, we look more balanced. He's just done the obvious. So the jury is out for me too.

all the main ones are remarkably similar really. Not that any of them would admit it. It’s the offshoots of the major ones which have some radical beliefs
