TicTok is for those with low boredom thresholds.

FWIW, I reckon we have a chance of the play off's, I'd like to think that JJ has stumbled onto a system that works, Jake and Joe being absent and someone else saying that the on field players not needing approval of their input has freed their minds to be more adventurous.

Very kind little review Rob on your blog about the museum. You must have not been able to see the cabinets on the right as you come in as they hold all the artefacts from 1889 right though to our election into the league in 1977. But as you say due to the size restrictions on a matchday it gets over 300 visitors so it can obstruct some of the cabinets. WiSH probably have enough to fill the cabinets in there 10 times over as we have over 4000 artefacts in total and over 400 shirts.

Isn't T20 cricket for people with low boredom thresholds?

Gets the crowds in,and I know people that say they dislike cricket over the years ,but enjoy the 20/20 and even attended games at the oval.

Shits and giggles cricket, care factor v low for me !

Sri Lanka 34/5.

OI, the Tour of UAE is on ch 408 TNT atm. Day 7, no idea who's competing but just want a look at Abu Dhabi ;-/

I'd already put the Guardian away after half time and I haven't been to the osteopath for several years, otherwise spot on.

Quite why even just the Bradford coach driver couldn’t have been keeping an eye on WAZE to check on the journey time from hotel to Plough Lane is beyond me. Total amateurs and hopefully the club will be fined accordingly.

Pretty certain they use the Crowne Plaza in Plymouth.

Only one player yesterday could arguably not have been in the mix for Man Of The Match……Bishop, and simply because he had virtually nothing to do all game. I think Bradford’s first attempt on goal was their goal on 75 minutes. Then Nathan made a decent save shortly thereafter but frankly he will not have an easier game all season. Credit to the 10 men in front of him.

What kind of hotels do AFCW use when we do our long away trips, by the way?

A4E - for some reason, sports teams tend to use the Hilton/Marriott level hotels rather than Premier Inn. And if they're using a hotel in Kensington - it's not much nearer than the Marriott branded one off the M4

Not enough for England,let's hope jacks get going

even a Premier Inn Colliers Wood, which would be nearer still.

Personally I thought both reports were pretty good. I am not sure why we have suddenly become such an attacking and pressing team and it would be too easy to blame it on Reeves and his endless sideways and slowing down play. Maycock has been a revelation in recent weeks but feel the big difference is Tilley who is always so positive and wants to attack at every moment. Even Smith, probably his best game for us?, was pushing forward. So instead of three shots in three games we are scoring three in one game now. The only concern would be that we played all the top teams at the beginning of the season and did well as now bar Cardiff so we don't want to start handing out points to Blackpool, Orient etc. now with a slower paced game.

It’s not a patch on your stuff Rob I got bored less than half way through whereas I usually read 60-70% of yours ;-)

REPD - great report there 👏 and I loved your Guardian/osteopath comment, summed us West standers up nicely… 🤪😂 I’d also point out that there’s a perfectly decent Premier Inn at Tolworth, it’s about 15 minutes from the M25 and around 20 minutes from PL - I’m amazed clubs don’t use that… 🤷🏻‍♂️

Trigg - it’s an OK analysis, but to say that “This was a game that was lost before the first whistle” does us a disservice I’m afraid. Lots of sour grapes, but I guess it’s a bit like that on here sometimes after a poor showing… 😬 We’ve scored 10 goals in our most recent 4 league games, that’s double Bradford’s tally over their last 4 - now that’s something to be positive about for sure… 🥳

And speaking of SW19 - a proper Bradford report has just been published. Enjoy... - [Link]

[Link] Kind of like Bradford’s SW19 Army….

If you look at away matches we're 6th in the table and Bradford are 12th so our excellent performance against them shouldn't be that much of a shock.

Let’s hope Mansfield don’t play this well next weekend…. [Link] 👀😯

I would say that most results will reflect both our performance and that of the opponent. Yesterday, I thought that we played really well and also that Bradford played badly. I don't know why they played below par, probably partly because of the pressure we put on them, but to me having their preparations and mind-set disrupted by their poor travel planning probably did contribute to that (but that would be down to their negligence, not just bad luck).
