https://www.footballinsider247.com/exclusive-oxford-boss-karl-robinson-unexpected-candidate-for-manager-job-at-spanish-club/ OK, so this is peak rumour season and I cannot help but feel it is unlikely. TBH I am more surprised that the first rumour about KR comes from abroad, rather than from higher ...

Well, apart from a few poor tackles in the first half not being clamped down on by the ref. Nothing unusual there, though. That first half was an odd affair. We gift them a goal, but whilst 'Pool competed in midfield, they created very little indeed of any danger. Then again, playing with a distinct...

Absolutely, Slappy. Their first goal was deflected off Moore and Sterling's two tap-ins were only so easy because of his sheer talent and class in the timing and path of his runs, to get on the end of sublime passes (for the first of his goals in particular was an amazing angled cross). Sterling's g...

I see the concern, but play Man City with anything less that 100% focus and effort and a humiliation could be on the cards - and what would that mean for Saturday? I expect limited rotation - KR has already said Longy will play and I would not be surprised to see Moore at the back - aided by one or ...

Legend is such an overused word - but it is absolutely the right one to use this morning. Sorry - I have something in my eye.

Tarique Fosu is the most fouled player in the 3rd division...by some margin. And Alex Gorrin is third in the list of most successful tacklers.

Just come across this interesting article:

Meh. Home to Colchester and we stood a decent chance of getting through. Away to one of the other 6 and we would have got a payday. Home to anybody other than Man City and we would have seen a new team at Grenoble Road. I shall still be there, but it does not excite me so much. And I hope they sort ...

So, four successive 3-0 home wins in the league, to make sure that "up the football league we go". Same style of play, passing it around patiently whilst looking for an opening, then going for it. So, trying to find something different/new to say about this game: Yes, Rochdale had won their last thr...

We played a patient passing game for much of the time - the difference with tippy-tappy crab football being that when the opportunity for a forward pass came, we took it - with forward players looking to get into space to receive the ball. For parts of the first half, Rovers played some good passing...

Having missed the last two games, I was really looking forward to seeing what the fuss was all about, hoping that they were not going to be assaulted to distraction by Evans' current charges. Well, what an excellent first half that was (was I too harsh in my criticism of Tranmere previously??). As m...

I would say the Newcastle result was decided once they missed a penalty. Mitrovic, as their main striker, just disappeared after that. Between WHU (which I was not at) and Swansea (which I was), I would have thought the big difference was the fact that we really had to hold on to that lead against S...

One of the important aspects of Saturday's game - which was picked up on after the match on RadOx - was Fosu's tracking back and defending. On a number of occasions I noticed him break up threatening looking attacks like that. We cannot rely only on the 'defenders' to defend - that was a much improv...
