  1. Not so much fancying them, just recognising their particular brand of "football" is not one we tend to do well against. Physical, stealing 15+ yards at throws, Taking an age to take dead ball situations as long as it's still 0-0, falling over as if poleaxed if you look at them too hard, destroying any flow to the game etc.
  2. ... and the scavers. B4 always mentioned the two as a pair, scavers and flanges. Can't have the one without the other.
  3. That might just be because, according to PW at the recent Fan Forum, no contracts will be offered before the end of the season...
  4. Regardless of the quality, to have 12 shots off less than 30% possession isn't that bad. Posh only managed 18 from over 70%. If they find their scoring boots instead of their shooting boots...
  5. I'm struggling to find the number of yards stolen at throw ins stat... 😉
  6. 29% possession yet still managed 12 shots... Posh just 18 from their 71%. 5 on target between them and one of those was an overhit cross that sailed into the top left hand corner in the 91st minute to decide the game...
  7. Just over 1000 home tickets left for the Orient game...
  8. Just had a butcher's at the head to head with this lot... W2 D2 L1 This fixture has very little history. Next week's game will be the 6th ever meeting.
  9. Just thrown a tenner their way. Hope everybody chips in with their bit. 100 £1 donations is still £100. 100 tenners is even better 🙂
  10. ... or 3 miles east of Burton?
  11. Clickbait, agreed. However, when they actually say something rather than the speculation they mainly post, it's generally spot on although 95% of what they post is pure speculation, the rest is copied from other sources. So, 5% of their posts are accurate... this was one. Seems Fozzy, like Collo, looks like getting back early. Good news if true. Went on Wycombe when the Couhig thing started to ask their view on it. I was polite, they responded in kind, had some discussion on there, not always agreed with each other but it's been civilised, even when I faulted their "style" although I do understand why they play that way. I'm one of the last few on FootyMad. Joined this one when COYR went south. Used to run the East Midlands Collective before that ended up with a handful of posters from a top of 500. My background? Played till I was 53. Last few years as player/coach, UEFA B qualified. Coached the youth keepers at my local club for about 10 years. Qualified ref as well. Quit that 2 years ago after a broken fibula that needed 2 operations left me not able to keep up with play box to box for 90 minutes. Always said I'd never become the ref that never left the centre circle so, at 68 and true to my word, I stopped.
  12. Forsyth now joins Ryan Nyambe and Jake Rooney in the group of players unlikely to feature again this season Source: https://the72.co.uk/2024/03/29/two-huge-boosts-derby-county-team-news-and-predicted-xi-to-face-blackpool/ Same story on derbycounty.news
  13. Read/heard on dcfc.co.uk from a PW interview in the week following the Bolton game IIRC.
  14. 38K? We'd take more than that. Having said that their >15K Wembley following is THREE times their average home gate of 4919, we took more than that average to Barnsley...
  15. Everything I've seen/heard has been Foz out for the season. Possibly not heard everything though. Bird is due to be available from the Wycombe game. Barks is training but not yet match ready IIRC.
  16. Don't know if this is what you meant... when PP was built, foundations were put in to allow another ring on the East Stand and maybe the North as well IIRC. The extra seating would increase capacity to 44K but he only planned to do the extension after we'd had at least one relegationless season in the PL.
  17. Forget Fozzy for the rest of the season. Bird might make the bench. Barks not yet ready.
  18. Catch on you did. Wondered if anyone would, I did.
