The fact teams like Chelsea get away with a relative slap on the wrist whilst the football authorities were so laid back about fining QPR £42 million is quite mind numbing. You’d think the media might question what’s going on in relation to our punishment but nobody ever does. |

Never understood why Redknapp didn’t just go out on a high after Derby final, not like he’s short of money. Regards Parker, the footballs unwatchable, but both Bournemouth and Fulham against the odds have managed to convert themselves into established Premier League sides. Maybe a season of anti football is the way forward? |
| Forum Reply | Abuse in modern football at 22:40 27 Jan 2025
Fan abuse at games was far worse 25-50 years ago than it is today. Social media has just re channeled it from abuse that disappeared into the ether to actual prose that is there for all to read and regurgitate. Make the break from social media and the abused will find they’re actually living in a far kinder world. |
| Forum Reply | Chair - positional change at 13:44 27 Jan 2025
Get the feeling he’s welded himself into that wide position and is reluctant to play central, hard to understand why, but if ever he had ambition to play at a higher level he’s killing it fast. Wonder if he’s not been that ambitious and content with being the best player in a bottom half side. |

Absolutely. We need to hear more criticism from away supporters, perhaps their own clubs could make a statement on their fans behalf too. The owners have consistently ignored their own fans, largely getting away on the grounds of it being old school and a proper ground etc but let’s be honest, it’s a dump compared with practically every other London ground, whether they’ve sniffed the Premier or not. I’m sure I’m not the only one with toes like a boxers knuckles, crammed into shit seats, knowing I’ll always turn up and basically get taken for granted. It’s not good enough and whilst they know it, they don’t lift a finger to do anything about it. |

I remember losing 3-0 at Palace in the relegation season and their fans had a chuckle when our end sang ‘we’re the Rangers, the mighty Rangers, we never win away..’ |

There should be a minimum release clause particularly if it can pay for something bigger faster and turns defenders. Until we have a few more attackers who can run in behind defences they’ll be plenty more Sheffield Wednesdays doing a job on us. |

One win all season against top ten sides tells its own story. Wednesday dictated the pattern of the game from start to finish. Very good side, well managed, probably only a centre forward away from being a top six side. Disciplined physicality and pace is the name of the game these days, we’re getting there but the left side is a concern. |

| Forum Reply | Our crowds these days compared to years gone by.... at 14:52 24 Jan 2025
The fall in crowds across the leagues was largely due to hooliganism, culminating in the 5 year ban from Europe after the excursions of that scum from the North West. What seemed like an initial bit of fun in the early 70’s, getting in and out without taking a right hander, had worn thin by the mid 80’s. Hillsborough was the turning point and the cleaning up of football led to our Sky overlords. In fairness to them, they’ve changed the game from a spectating view, crowds massively up across all football so despite the ludicrous kick off times, we should acknowledge that particular achievement. |

Apparently there’s a yellow snow threat. I’m sure it’ll look nice but, whatever you do, don’t eat it. |

Has Taraabt succeeded at the top level anywhere? Brilliant for us for one season, in the Championship, no doubt about that. Quickly found out in the Premier League, don’t recall him playing at that level again though I stand to be corrected. At the risk of being accused of playing Old Man Top Trumps, I’ve seen Francis, Bowles, Thomas, Marsh, Wilkins and Les, and Taraabt doesn’t hold a candle to any of them. And what position does he play? Chairs! Behave the lot of you. |

Yesterday I was looking down the fixture list thinking lots of lovely Saturday 3pm kick offs, Spring is in the air, having completely forgotten about our Sky overlords. We were regularly on tv even when we were shit so I’m expecting total decimation of the fixture list if we carry on being good. |

Anyone know if the Adelaide is serving dinners again? Think when it reopened a while back they weren’t doing food any more |
