I must admit, what with the winter break plus an FA Cup tie thrown into the mix, I'm a little lost with regards to where we are on 'keeper rotation. Are Steele and Bart effectively alternating PL starts? Or do they get two goes in a row each? Or is de Zerbi basing selection on the opposition? I...

Who, on here, has played the furthest up the football pyramid? I imagine there are quite a few former (or current?) County League level ‘ballers posting on here. Anyone ever play any higher than that?

It feels like its been a long few months without seeing multiple pairs of these every weekend, ffs. Is it actually mandatory for football pundits to wear these shoes?

How, if at all, will the current cost of living crisis impact your established matchday expenditure? Fewer home games attended? Cut back on away games? Spend less on stadium food and drink / club merchandise? Cancel subscription TV channels? Or will you cut back in other areas to maintain your...

Now everything that could be won and lost has been won and err, lost - which PL team can look back on the season with the greatest degree of satisfaction at a 'job well done'? Some considerations.... Manchester City? Yes, they retained the PL title which I guess equals 'meeting minimum...

Has this been done already? Apologies if so. Heard about this guy on the Adrian Chiles show on 5Live earlier today. He delivers the customary South American commentator's goal celebration - but with a unique twist at the end... This is from a Paul Scholes goal, but plenty of other examples of...

Any itk insights regarding what we can expect - or whether it will be worn for the last game of the season? I'm preparing myself to be underwhelmed by Nike's latest '5 minute job'.

Watching games over the weekend, it would appear the answer is "three." I notice that the 'winter ball' has now been retired and replaced with a new design for 'Spring 2022' rather than simply re-use the balls from last autumn. Sigh.

Short ban for (1) willfully circumnavigating the swear filter (2) persistently attempting to de-rail threads (3) generally using threads to conduct running battles with other posters rather than contributing to the topic (4) not heading the warning I posted last week that stated this style of...

Shirt, tie and the tailored Italian cashmere coat.

Would love to see Lamptey, Mwepu and Welbeck all start - but I'm guessing they will all be options off the bench for this one?

Banned for trolling and abuse

If you have bought Nike football boots or footballs for Christmas gifts, do yourself a favour and invest in the essential accessory which i have found to be a tube of Gorilla Glue. Now, I have always favoured Adidas football stuff but my 10 year old son needed a new pair of football boots this...

I’m planning on using the Lewes station carpark this evening but can anyone help me by telling me if this a realistic option at around 6pm? Or would I be better off heading to another carpark in Lewes? Genuine thanks in advance for any help / advice. I rarely get to games and am bringing my...

Have the PL actually come out with any policies around this yet? I understand it is a complex and ever-moving picture, but it would be good if supporters could have some clarity around the broad circumstances under which clubs are able to request a postponement owing to covid-enforced squad...

Ban issued for posting in a manner in direct contravention of the request recently made by Bozza

The next round of PL games starts this evening and so far - no thread, with fixtures, kick-off times, broadcasters and current league table all neatly documented in one place. Frankly, for me this is part of my essential pre-match build up, enabling me to quietly ponder all possible permutations...

Is Lineker still ill? Mark Chapman hosting again tonight

Just did a little bit of researching to see if FIFA have announced the kick off times for the World Cup this time next year, and see that the following has been proposed: Group matches: 10am, 1pm, 4pm and 7pm. Knockout matches: 3pm and 7pm. This means the 7pm (local time) games will kick off...
