  1. Hugill`s hardly had a sniff since he joined us. Why replace a player who clearly hasn`t had a run of games yet. Pukki is our first choice striker, whoever else we have will sit on the bench, would Woodrow do any better getting ten minutes here and there than Hugill?


  2. All very interesting reading but is it just me that thinks since this whole BLM movement began, racism and racial hatred seems to have gone through the roof. Yes I know it's always been there but lately all we ever read about or see on the TV is racism. Sport especially has made massive strides in tackling racism over the last ten years or so but for me the whole BLM movement has given racists a whole new reason to vent their ignorant views.

    This is the classic 'we'd love him if he played for us' sort of topic.

    Maddison wasn't averse to hitting the deck, neither is Todd or Emi. Holt would go down like he'd been shot if he thought he might get a penalty.

    Hanley always goes down with his back to the attacker, clever play I say. Grealish, we'd love him here wouldn't we?

    Yep that's what came across very clearly in the Shilton article and from posters such as you. Did you read the article? What else would you call it?

    I mean he didn't kill anyone did he? I think I would be coping just fine if I did experience it but thanks for your concern - I certainly hope you get over your terrible trauma soon.  

    There`s only one of us going through a trauma, calm down. You`ll be getting sweaty palms next,🤐

    How on earth would I not understand? I don't lack basic human empathy. You can still be bitter about it but that is no excuse to disrespect a human being who has sadly died. 

    The facft is this is sport, it was 35 years ago, plenty of players cheat in football. Our players cheat, the English players specifically in that match tried to injury him out of the game. That is cheating. 

    All of this saltiness just shows a lack of class way worse than any hand of god act from Maradona.

    Saltiness, 😂

    It was before my time but I certainly don't think it means that English supporters should stay bitter to the point of disrespecting his actual death. Its only a game of football after all! 

    I'd say the reaction by some English fans (and Shilton) shows a lack of class far beyond cheating in a World Cup game and then not apologising. No wonder everyone loves seeing the English lose.

    Do you think Henry or Suarez will deserve to be disrespected for their acts of cheating on their deaths too? I personally don't.. 

    I also feel the bitterness would be better placed with the officials not Maradona, and that it would be better placed in the previous century and not 35 years after the fact too. Its not like VAR is going to overturn the decision now is it? 

    I'm glad he never apologised to Shilton, that miserable **** doesn't deserve closure. 

    Before your time, I rest my case, clearly you will never understand an England fan regarding that game. Glad you didn't have to experience it.

    Yes respect? He'd be a national hero if he had done that for us! Can't believe people are still salty about it 35 years later, after he has sadly passed. Really is embarrassing.

    The athletic did an article on the hand of god game and mentioned how England had basically spent the first hour of the game trying to kick Maradona out of the game and hurt him. Or in other words - cheating.

    I also saw this Peter Shilton article and I thought what a miserable, salty, classless man!

    About 2 sentences of generic condolences before he gets into all he really wants to say - complaining endlessly about sportsmanship / not apologising. Oh and the goal of the century never would've happened if it wasn't for the handball because the English players were still reeling from it. Talk about sour grapes Jesus, he is a national embarrassment.

    Can only imagine what his family must've put up with the past 35 years! Those poor grandkids must be dealing with some kind of trauma by now.

    He`s not English and he didn`t do it for us, don`t see your point. So you were happy with his performance against us??


  8. Farke has stuck with McGovern for a few years now so he's not gonna change that now and bring in another keeper over him. I'm not a big fan but we have to accept that he will be playing a few games in the coming weeks. Hopefully he will do well, let's try supporting the guy instead of writing him off.
