Ipswich Away Drew 1 – 1
Third game of the season at Ipswich, and our third back three: Harwood-Bellis, Stephens and Quarshie this time. We have a problem with Quarshie at the moment – a big lad but he doesn’t use his physique as much as he needs to in our league, and this game showed a worrying lack of pace […]

Hollywood (Wrexham) Home Won 2 – 1
Not that I was there for any of them, but I don’t suppose there were many clues pre-season as to Will Still’s line-up for the opener against Wrexham. He went for Bazunu (no surprise but I expect it will all end in tears), a back three, Downes and Charles in the middle and Fraser, Armstrong […]
Epilogue and Prologue
2024/25 was, as we know, a complete disaster but there’s a new optimism with season tickets and the first game sold out while the club are second favourites to win the Championship. I don’t see that and suspect that, with global sports betting, expert odds setters don’t concern themselves with something as humble as the […]

Arsenal Home Lost 1 – 2 We Have a Record
Walker-Peters’ illness ruled him out of the final game, against Arsenal, prompting speculation that it was of the sort that medical science cannot cure, and the same was being said of Bednarek’s injury, while it was clear when he limped off at Goodison that Harwood-Bellis wouldn’t be available. There were other options but, in front […]
Everton Away Lost 2 – 0
Maybe no sector of society does sentiment as much as sport, and no sport as much as football; within the football world, the city of Liverpool does it more than most, and the blue half always more than the red, even before Anfield became a tourist trap. Thus Everton went seriously overboard for the last men’s […]

Manchester City Home Drew 0 – 0 We Got 12 Points – Moaning Citee
We Got 12 Points – Moaning Citee Southampton’s line up against Manchester City had no forwards in a something-something-zero formation that inevitably seemed more like 10-0-0 at times, once City worked out the home side’s game plan. I have no problem with it, and certainly not against the Premier League’s spendthrift elite – especially as it […]
