    Definitely Clattenburg. He was refereeing enemy number for a while. Despite the red being only mildly contentious.

    Yep, even back then it was probably a 50/50 call. It was just such a shame he missed the second leg as he'd been superb that season.

    A mistimed tackle rather than anything malicious, but he could easily have snapped Kabba's leg in half.

    You need more shouting...

    Chicago: Loud.

    With decent second string options slimmer than a Skagen watch, put in the kids. And if they do well, let us not hold their manhoods cheap: put some in against Tottenham and let the boys win their Spurs (next match thread title contender, obvs)

  • 18 Mar 2026, 2:43 p.m.

    Don't look at the kids' recent results...

  • 18 Mar 2026, 3:27 p.m.

    How come he's allowed to be in and out but we cant replace Savona with Netz?

  • 18 Mar 2026, 3:31 p.m.

    Goalkeeper rules are different. Think we'd have to say Gunn has a 30 day injury to replace him.

    Btw, I just realised we've got Timmy Cahill's lad on the books. Attacking midfielder apparently.

    I was just musing about what squad to play based on resting players for the Spuds and also wanting to give some of the new lot a good go. My no doubt failing team would be in a 3 4 2 1

    Sels

    Abbott Milenkovic Morato

    CHO Yates Sangare Williams

    McAtee Hutchinson

    NDoye

    I'm fairly certain they won't have played that set up but I'm out walking the dogs and that's where my head went to.

  • 18 Mar 2026, 4:26 p.m.

    Nah. Back three of Abbott, Serbinator and Morato.. I agree with but then have Bakwa and N'Doye as wing backs. Dom and Yatesy in the middle (Dom can handle two games because he is Argie Tuff).

    McAtee and Jesus. Lucca at the end if we are desperate.

    Taiwo for Sunday. Fuck it. Why the hell not. Chaos bunny cannot score but can make opportunities for others by being well...a chaos bunny. Spuds won't like it up 'em.

    Also I think both Bakwa and N 'doye take shots. Well they used to.

    We may pull it off. We may be pants. At least we will have Murillo, Aina, Williams, MGW, Ando playing the prem game.

    Or we can run them into the ground for European glory!

    Chicago: Offering solutions at work.

  • 18 Mar 2026, 5 p.m.

    I agree with Chicago.

    Pretty sure that's the first time I've typed those words in twenty years.

  • 18 Mar 2026, 5:07 p.m.

    Aren't you a player short in your line up? I'll give you Dom in the middle. I'm not giving you the completely lacking confidence Bakwa as a wing back though.

  • 18 Mar 2026, 5:12 p.m.

    Fuck's sake Chicago. That's what I get for backing a mad yank.
