  1. Harry Maguire | 2024/25 Performances

    He's probably a better goalie than Onana too.

  2. Jadon Sancho - Chelsea (loan) watch | £5M opt-out fee

    Yep, didn't even kick a ball for Arsenal before they shipped him out to Palace so they could sign Kenny Sansom.

  3. Graham Taylor - England Manager - A Retrospective

    Haha, the man that Taylor built his team around.

  4. Jamie Vardy | Leaving Leicester at the end of the season

    He'd be a good signing for a championship club. Maybe Sheffield Wednesday the team he grew up supporting.

  5. Most unexpected meteoric rises to the top levels in football?

    David Platt. He was playing for Crewe Alex in 1988 in the 4th division and then went on to be one of England's best players at the 1990 World Cup. Club wise, the original Wimbledon - didn't join the football league until 1977/78 season and were in the top flight by 1987 winning the FA Cup a...

  6. Graham Taylor - England Manager - A Retrospective

    From memory, Graham Taylor had basically been lined up for the job for a number of years, so it was largely seen as a feit accompli. And yes, he was definitely the 'safe pair of hands' as far as the FA were concerned. He did quite well with Watford to be fair, but you're also correct in saying...

  7. André Onana (Out)

    feck, I'd take Peter Schmeichel over him!!!

  8. Relegated teams - cheap decent players?

    Daka would fit in well at United, he's scored one goal this season....

  9. Facts about football that shouldn't be true - but are

    An early iteration of the MLS, the United Soccer Association, was a summer league largely made up of British and Irish teams under different names. For example, Stoke City were the Cleveland Stokers, Dundee United were Dallas Tornadoes and Sunderland were the Vancouver Royal Canadians. Until...

  10. Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney | Wrexham AFC Watch

    There's nothing wrong with being a big perv. It happens to all of us once you get to a certain age. Generally about 13 or 14 and it never leaves you. In fact you become a bigger perv the older you get. I don't have the luxury of 'spying' on the Swedish women's football team, I have to make do...

  11. Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney | Wrexham AFC Watch

    Handy for a round of golf with Michael Owen

  12. Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney | Wrexham AFC Watch

    I know that they always eat in the restaurant at the Grosvenor. I suppose it beats sitting on the end of the bed with a bag of chips, in the Premier Inn Wrexham....

  13. Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney | Wrexham AFC Watch

    One of the scouse gangster's sons (he had him and his brother playing for Chester, but that's another chapter) was sent to jail last month for his part in laundering £millions of drug money (it's a family trait). He did a flit to Spain but was extradited last year. Four years jail time incoming.

  14. Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney | Wrexham AFC Watch

    Do they stay in the Grosvenor?

  15. Ayden Heaven | 2024/25 Performances

    I did something similar about 20 years ago. Sprained the ankle ligaments. The pain was excruciating and it went up like a balloon. I was convinced it was broken until I had the x-ray. I still get some random pain in it on occasion all these years later.
