Amazing that Arsenal look like throwing away the title from a leading position yet again. Something in the air in north London, with both Arsenal and Spurs being self- proclaimed massive clubs but so mentally weak?

Bodo Glimt 3 Inter Milan 1 should be a decent 2nd leg

Yes, I’d say 50 points should keep us safe but those 11 points will be very hard to get

Next months home games against Northampton, Blackpool and Orient will all be 6 pointers

Barring a massively unlucky injury crisis we've shown over the past few games that we have enough this season. Both playing squad and management. Had our major slump of the season, still clear, looking better after the January window.

Pressley gets late equaliser for 10 man Walsall 🤪

CW: 3 teams won! Port vale irrelevant but orient and Northampton were good I agree. We needed Rotherham to draw that I’d say

Unrealistic to expect everyone will lose. Last night Rotherham lost, Orient lost,Exeter drew, Northampton lost and PortVale lost

Been a bad couple of days - other results wise. Down to 5 points

Mark - you jinxed it 🤪😬

Wigan winning.

Really need Luton to help us out today

I guess Amazon Prime grabbed Newcastle v Q to show next week and may now be regretting it.

Nkeng is the new Sasu, only luckily significantly more skilled. Suddenly everything is about him and the team needs to be built round him. He's young, he's exciting but he is very inexperienced, he needs a year in which to mature, learn about positioning in defence and attack and we'kk have a gem (to sell).

I’m kind of the opposite of that AIoW - I think* that the penalty rule should be overhauled to the point where only an infraction which stops a goal scoring opportunity should be a penalty. Including anywhere in the attacking half not just the 18 yard box. If the ball hits your arm accidentally while it’s nowhere near the goal then you shouldn’t be penalised with a mostly-certain goal.

I have the unpopular view that any ball hitting any part of the hand or arm it should be a penalty. Sure its harsh on some decisions but its decisive and beyond debate. As things stand there's the double jeopardy of it hitting the hand-ball zone and an interpretation that is neither a definitive decision that's universally agreed nor does reward or punish sides, that have home/large club/crowds biases as an official to surcombe to. soft or not, should equal out over a season, but 99% will be correct without having to interpret motive or shape of the offence

RK - that was a bad decision. Should never have been given.

Interesting pen in Newcastle game. Where could the defender put his arm if he was falling and facing away?

Thanks Trigg (for the 889 answer) 👍

The biggest problem is trying to find a system which accommodates both Browne and Nkeng - neither of whom should be on the pitch to defend. Maybe a 4-3-1-2. With Nkeng and Stevens (now Bugiel is injured) with Browne behind a more workman like midfield to help defend. Would allow Nkeng to drift wide and Browne to find the holes

Blackpool v Carlisle rescheduled for 3rd March

You not have someone like Nkeng on the pitch for him to defend. You accommodate someone like him. He lives by how he attacks. If you play a midfield three as we did then he helps cover the flank to allow Nkeng to attack. We were much better when we changed it to 3-4-3 which reduced Nkengs defensive responsibilities.

Mags has said Blackpool or Carlisle

Well done to our under 18’s who have won the Youth Alliance Cup southern final with a 3-1 win away at Luton Town to progress to the national final. Don’t know when that is or who we will play.

Looking at comments Cardiff fans were actually quite impressed with us and thought we were better than a lot of teams that have played them this season. Seen one or two say we were better than Luton. Talking about not just making it hard for them to play but also creating some decent moves and opportunities ourselves.
