Nobody has really mentioned the dire state of the Aussie batting. Apart from Smith (who is clearly declining) and Head, they are in crisis as shown by the three tests against the Windies and the World Championship defeat by South Africa. They even tried Green as No 3, with limited success. This is a real chance for England. [Post edited 10 Oct 18:39]

Glass half full: if we had beaten Wednesday and Oxford as expected would have been joint top. |

To be strictly accurate, you can't be offside from a penalty. As well as staying out of the box, all players must stand behind the ball so if you get ahead it's a foul penalty with a retake not an offside. But like Clive that's a new one on me. |

What another brilliant report.
For me, the key word is expectation rtaher than complacency. When expected to beat opposition, we seem to lack belief and conviction. The coach needs to change that somehow. |

Thanks for the report. All the right topics were covered with some good follow-up questions. But what a load of gobbledegook in response, even allowing for being non native language speakers [Post edited 30 Jul 17:26]

I remember vividly the new TV lounge bouncing up and down during the half time pundit sessions - watched on catch up by me of course - when we were one up at home to Chelsea in our first Prem season. Ray Wilkins remarked on it and looked very worried. |

Wow, the minutes are a cracking read. Thanks for posting it.
I loved the reference to "vomitories" in the section on Millwall fan behaviour and can tell you it does not mean what you might think. |

When I did the voluntary contributions recently, the rule of thumb was that you got into surplus after 4 years, a bit longer if you have to pay income tax. So plan to live for at least five years! |

Great report - especially the masterly reference to the thirsty goalie. Worth the wait.
I had to miss the game due to a family thing, so thanks for conveying some of the magic. |

The last two home matches were played in high winds, so I guessed we wanted to take advantage of the wind behind us to get ahead of the game. |

Really good and fair report for an enjoyable match and great support. But how did we miss those sitters? Madson's miss was bizarre for a right footed play.
The only thing I'd add is that when Fox came on a left back we were lucky to get away without conceding. He is far too slow, and that seemed a poor substitution. |

I can't post the link but there was a good thread on this starting on 20 April one year (site does not show year!) called "7374 Rewind" if anyone wants to search [Post edited 20 Nov 2024 16:59]

Seriously brilliant reading. I love the awaydays, even though the official photographer post was made redundant ten years ago.
The Sheff Utd match was my first visit to Bramall lane but all the grim opp north cliches collapsed when I was told to pick up our lift after the match in the Waitrose car park around the corner... |
