    Ethan Ampadu

    Ampadu is far too good for the Championship but Leeds look very much like a side that came through a tough 4-3 away win at better opposition four days ago; and have come up against opposition at the other end, with skin in the game, who are rested and have home advantage.

    League One - 2023/24

    I guess when you crash and burn as they did in the second leg last season, and this being their third weekend-midweek in a row (with a Wembley final in there) Ferguson has decided that the incredibly slim possibility of an autos place is less of a target than keeping key players fit/fresh. He...

    Northampton Town v Exeter City Matchday Thread - Kick off 2-00 PM

    The latter more likely to find the back of the net on the basis of what I've read on here?

    FA Cup 2023/24

    Today's game was a classic for the ages; such a shame that the FA has willfully devalued it's own tournament as a sop to the entitled few in the PL. I thought Coventry were incredible for the final 60 minutes or so of the match. It's weird to think how recently they were slumming in in L2...

    League One - 2023/24

    Yeah, seems an odd choice. If Derby were away then I'd get there'd be lots of demand; but the spread from 5th to 8th is far more intriguing.

    Thanks for your work Alistair20000. Hope you're planning to exercise the biscuits off over the summer and come back ready for the new season.

    They'll show whatever game(s) stuff is riding on at either end of the table.

    Is Project 6000 and sustainability in L1 compatible with selling our "Gems"?

    Thanks for this - was about to post a screengrab of the receipt for mine at Pompey which was £50-odd quid cheaper than the price being quoted; and also making the point that the cheapest -> most expensive comparisons are usually a bit misleading as several clubs have variable pricing, whereby...

    More changes to the FA Cup

    Oh my, that had passed me by. Presumably the FA cup draw could just be read out without the use of the balls given it's all pre-ordained anyway. We shouldn't mock though, that's what they want.

    More changes to the FA Cup

    If I did conspiracies, I'd say this was a deliberate stitch up on the part of the FA and PL relating to stuff around the not-yet-agreed redistribution model and the introduction of the regulator. I'm just off to for a pint with Matt Le Tissier to talk about the weather.

    Matt Taylor - sacked by Rotherham & employed by Bristol Rovers

    Alas, I can only go lowbrow. Cald(s)well that ends well. (at least it's not a tragedy).

    Matt Taylor - sacked by Rotherham & employed by Bristol Rovers

    Perhaps there was a Shakespeare misunderstanding; and King Leam succeeded KMT due to a typo?

    Matt Taylor - sacked by Rotherham & employed by Bristol Rovers

    I'm pretty sure there are similarities between the Fall of Rome and the Fall of Rotherham.

    Exeweb Goals X Exeter Food Action fundraiser

    Will settle this up at the end of the month, once the final game is done and dusted. Having seen the state of some of our players last night, and a tweet earlier suggesting several of them were out again this afternoon, I think there's a fair chance of them drawing a blank on Saturday.

    Jack Sparkes

    Likely one of the reasons it's taken us a few more years than many would have hoped/expected to get out of the division. We've had some really good players and some really good people in that time but my sense is that we were focused far too much on recruiting individuals than to a profile...

    Manager Thread..Appointments & Dismissals

    Had just seen that. Quite a progression over the season from Matt Taylor -> Leam Richardson -> Steve Evans. The latter is really not my cup of tea, but his sustained record of putting together competitive sides in leagues 1 and 2 is pretty good; and that's probably what Rotherham are looking...

    Leam Richardson gone at Rotherham.

    Jack Sparkes

    To be fair to JS, he's been far more involved this season than I think anyone expected - and whilst he's had ups-and-downs he can be proud of his performances as part of our wider achievements; there were some crucial assists early in the season and he put in a couple of really good defensive...

    Jack Sparkes

    Jack has made some really important contributions this season, particularly early on when he had far more involvement than I think anyone anticipated he would have. He started a few games last month but has struggled a bit more for minutes since our first-choice left-back returned to full...

    Zak Jules

    I doubt it SRJ. Assuming the option is in favour of the club - then worst case scenario is player has his head turned and the club gets compenstated if they let him go. From the bit I've read I suspect the player is happy to extend if the terms are right, which may be where the potential...
