    RIP Marvelous Marvin Hagler

    I always preferred the hitman. But their fights were epic.

    Derby’s record

    But how many quality players do you lose by becoming a permanent Championship level club? Maybe you will be milked by the weaker players, but the good ones will leave asap. Then the only change you will get is how far do you fall, no permanent about it.

    I'm starting to be in the camp of addition by subtraction. I can't help but wonder if King is subverting the squad, much like I thought about Ryan Fraser last year. You wouldn't see much in print, but results when in and out seemed different. So, if it cost the 16M pounds to send him to West...

    Carry on Covid - pre kick off match day experience.

    Interesting post, thank you. The Josh King line had me snickering!

    AFC Bournemouth v Huddersfield Town

    I'm going with "King hasn't been able to get fit for a match yet, but he is back and training hard"

    David Brooks

    If Brooks can learn and prove that he can be successful while being the center of attention of every opposing club, he will attract a ton of interest and money. Can ACFB hold on to him, even if promoted, at the end of the season in those circumstances? Unlikely. But selling him in January might...

    Match report v Barnsley

    Thank you for the report Kirsikka. He had to be easier to write than last few games, at least emotionally.

    Match report v Barnsley

    Concerning Brooks, is it others opinion that: A.) He is the player other teams want to "take out of a game" and he has to learn to overcome their attention OR B) He is getting so much press and sweetheart attention, that has knocked him off his game OR C) He is just going through a dry spell

    Match report v Preston

    Does JT go off when it is being done or is being quiet about it all?

    Match report v Preston

    Is there any kind of after game judgement of referees? So, if the referee did the game as you described, will he be critiqued by any group or does a referee just have latitude given and as long as no one dies or a Big 6 team loses, he is okie dokey.

    I, for one, think VAR was a MAJOR contributor to AFCB relegation. And they way it was used almost arbitrarily made me sick.

    No, just no

    I have a whole problem with your idea, but I can only explain from a Non=UK football perspective. In the US, for example, you have a mountain of people that are Chicago Cub or Atlanta Braves fans. But they have never even been to those cities. In the 80's, Chicago and Atlanta had the first...
