VDV was running around Commanding the defence at the start of the year, he's checked out now.

Vicario has never convinced me as being anything other than a good shot stopper. I'd be inclined to give Kinsky a go. 

Porro looks like he'd rather be anywhere else, same for Romero.

Kulu is a cracking player and runs through walls for the team, but he's not on the pitch. Ben Davies is another. He's no star, but hes solid and does a job everytime he pulls his shirt on and the fans recognise that. 

 

The only high spots at the moment is Gray who seems to be the only one willing to kill himself for the cause. 

 

If I was the gaffer I'd have the players in tomorrow morning and make them read through social media or have some of the club legends come to training and explain what it means to the fans and the heartbeat of the club. Players come and go, but the staff and fans will always be there and we deserve more respect from the players who currently wear the shirt.

The bit in bold, do you mean Kulusevski or Maddison?

Sorry, yeah Kulusevski.

Nah, he gives a shit, was clearly made promises when he signed his new deal which haven't been kept (I mean he could've asked any Spurs fan, and they'd have told him not to believe the boards bullshit) hence why he's been publicly calling out the board.

You can aim lots of things at Romero, but that he doesn't care is not one of them.

Romero has always been one of those players who's on the edge. Fantastic defender on his day and actually picks out some fantastic passes that the people up top haven't been putting away. At the same time, he's always capable of making a rash mistimed challenge and getting into trouble. That's not new, he's always been like that. Obviously, things aren't going well at Spurs this season (understatement there) so it makes sense that someone on the edge doing all he can and trying to overcompensate for how bad things are is going to get caught out with more of those tough challenges and pick up cards.

There are a lot of things wrong with Spurs, and obviously sending offs aren't going to help matters, but it seems clear to me he's at least working his arse off and giving it his all.

What's Lincoln away like?

It's got a steep hill, called......Steep Hill. Lincoln Castle is nice & Lincoln Cathedral is beautiful architecture. Holds 1 of the 4 original copies of the Magna Carta. (I know you're joking)

I heard a stat, Lincoln City were 102 places below Leicester City when they won the PL in 2016. Next season Lincoln may be above them

What's happening with Leicester City? The points deduction has obviously taken a hit, but there's a strong chance they can be back in League One next season. The squad is good enough for the Championship but they don't look like they are picking up many points. Still got quite a few games left against promotion challengers like Ipswich, Hull, Millwall, Bristol City, Watford too. And two big ones against Sheffield Wednesday & Blackburn at the bottom.

Don't worry Rashers you are too good to go down. 

But just in case. I can tell you that as someone who has been in the away end at Lincoln it's a great place to go. The Lincoln fans can get very quiet if you get on top of them. Mind you as a Millwall fan I can say that is often the case with opposition fans when we play them. 

Last time we played at Lincoln we actually lost 2-0 but still outsung them for most of the game. The two things I remember from the game were a challenge by the Lincoln right back that took out our winger and the linesman but wasn't given as a foul, and me getting the stadium announcer to announce congratulations to my mate Simon whose wife had given birth to twins 2 days before. Simon was at the game in the Lincoln end, but he was neither married nor a dad.

If this happens, I’d say it’s equivalent to Leicester. Here’s hoping it’s the key to title challenges from other clubs, whatever the case.

A Hearts title win eclipses the achievement of Leicester in my opinion.

It's 41 years since anyone other than Celtic, Old Rangers or New Rangers won it.

If Celtic don't beat Aberdeen on Wednesday then it's back to a two horse race. 

I can't help but feel Rangers will just get over the line. Celtic are in utter turmoil but the weird thing with Rangers seems to be;

the fans don't fully believe in Röhl or the players.

I'm not sure the players fully believe in Röhl.

I'm not sure Röhl fully believes in the players.

The post split fixtures are where I think Hearts might finally run out of steam.

One of the most intriguing aspects for me would be if a scenario presents itself where one of Celtic or Rangers are playing Hearts in the final game of the season and they can't win the league themselves but a Hearts win stops the other one from winning it.

I couldn't imagine Celtic or especially Rangers or their fans wanting to beat Hearts to hand their direct rivals a league title.

Cardiff City just posted losses of £35m for last season so that number won't be too far wrong. There are lot of owners propping up a lot of clubs in the Championship in the hope that the payday of promotion will come. I think the permitted loss is £15m for FFP so it shouldn't be as high as £26m but possibly will be once they've fiddled academy investment, etc that doesn't count as losses.

The Championship does seem like a bit of an accident waiting to happen. It also seems undervalued from a TV revenue POV. I think Sky get an absolute steal. It's by far the most interesting league around, it has incredible clubs with great history and big well-attended stadiums. It should be doing much better on it's own merits, let alone with the money feeding down from the PL.

Defensive clearance from Gakpo is the best you will ever see in your life (0:23 if the embed doesn't work). Only problem is, he denied Curtis Jones!

Wolves have won as many home league games in the last week as Spurs have since April 2025.

Sleep well friends.

We’re likely to play a ball boy at centre-half tomorrow, such is our inability to build a squad.

See you in here for the aftermath of the incompetent London derby!

Yeah? You want to have a "who's got the shittest squad" fight mate? You won't win!

We're likely to have kids on the bench again that I've never even heard of! Chirpy probably in the middle, and the ghost of Jimmy Greaves up front with Gordon Durie.

See you after the inevitable 'Johnson again ole ole'

Twice this season we've lost to ten men after the sending off. This lot just don't seem to be happy with the shit records they break.
