Anyone who starts a prediction/claim with "My understanding is..." is never to be believed.
It's journalese for "I'm not at all sure, frankly."
If you "understand" that X is going to happen you just say "X is going to happen".
"Our next match is at home to Portsmouth" not "I understand that our next match is at home to Portsmouth."
Bit lucky there.
If Scienza, Azaz and Larin all play well, we are brilliant. But Leo & Cyle weren’t at it tonight.
Props to Flynn Downes. Excellent. MotM.
So far, this is a truly fantastic transfer window.
Two players out for £60m.
Peretz and Larin in for barely £10m (I thought we'd get neither).
Scienza and Azaz stay.
JWP in for peanuts.
I would have ripped your arm off for that in early July.
Nice win. A 6/10 performance.
Downes MotM by a mile.
Was getting frustrated that it look us so long to make a sub. But what do I know? It worked v well ultimately.
That's pretty weird then. If - by some miracle - we don't just beat Hull, but then manage to stay in the top flight for 27 years (as we did from 1978-2005), we would begin the 2053-54 season in the Championship at a points deduction?
