During the half time period Creswell was mobbed by the Millwall subs as if he was a long lost relative. Obviously he made a good impression at Millwall last season.

Did anyone notice that in first half added time whilst Rodon was receiving treatment? Coops was in the face of their corner-kicker, giving him some verbals. When the corner kick was taken, Coops remained, standing his ground next to the corner flag making it difficult for the kicker.

I wonder what was said?

Final word on the merits of my main man DJ over WG to start matches

Dan James 12 goals 8 assists ( 20 goal contributions)

Willy Gnonto 8 goals 2 assists (just 10 goal contributions)

Both doing well thankfully

But with DJ having TWICE as many goal contributions than WG especially FIRST HALF first goal contributions I trust that DF sees sense to at least start DJ in some of the remaining 8 games.

I hope DF does NOT ' farke ' it up!

Can anyone remember having such a big goal difference before? We could end up having a 50+ GD by the end of the season, that's unreal in my living memory.

Since 1960 to this season fairly sure GD plus 42 is Leeds United highest

Both in

1971/ 72
And 2019/ 20.

Watching paint dry would be preferable.

Yes Ben its a tad dull, slow lacking in high quality ( perfect for mediocre Big Mac)

Spence is a good player though. he may have found the right club for him, country, culture.

18 Mar 2024 07:11:57
Remember back 30years when it was THE place to play, and the most exciting football!? How times change!

17 Mar 2024 06:21:13
Has Southgate eng squad got 5 midfielders and 8 strikers?

Agree0 Disagree0

17 Mar 2024 13:39:38
A lot of those 'strikers' would be classed as attacking MFs or wingers, therefore in most worlds, just MFs. Strange the way they’ve chosen to structure it!

Anybody know if gyorkes or whatever his name is has a sell on clause. Release clause at 85 and Arsenal rumoured to be interested.

Agree0 Disagree0

14 Mar 2024 17:11:49
I don’t know Aus, but we should have pushed the boat out for him a few years ago, for sure!

15 Mar 2024 12:14:45
Not sure about sell on clause, but Gyokeres has an £86m release clause according to Sporting boss, Ruben Amorim.

Was a travesty we didn't go for him in Jan 23 when we needed a pure goalscorer. Somewhere around £15m (plus add ons) would've secured a deal for him then.


Orta opted for Rutter, who, while not the right profile of player at the time, has proven to be an unreal talent, so can't complain too much.

Still, what could've been 😞

Personally I'm a massive fan. I've raved about Gyok for a couple years now on twitter and I think I've posted on here before about him too. His profile as a 9 is everything you could ask for. One of the most complete strikers in world football and he's only adding strings to his bow.

Would do some damage at Arsenal.

Dill
Fat and zero chance that Coventry would have allowed Gyokeres to leave in Jan 2023 for a price of £15 million ( plus add ons) as you say . when they needed him to have a decent chance of promotion through the playoffs.

15 Mar 2024 18:49:30
Having spoke to a few Cov fans on twitter about it they seemed to think the club would've let him go for that as the club was struggling financially. He only went for £20m+ add ons in the summer. Moot point now anyway 🤷‍♂️.

15 Mar 2024 19:28:30
Are you sure those Cov fans on twitter weren't Leicester or Birmingham fans pulling your leg Dill

as it made zero logical financial sense to sell Gyokeres in Jan 2023 with a potential huge financial prize of promotion to EPL in the offing

Coventry were a penalty kick shootout in May 2023 Playoff final with Luton from getting promoted to EPL and its huge income.

{Ed001's Note - they also rejected a bigger offer than that from Everton.}

15 Mar 2024 21:10:06
Just speaking from my experience talking to a few lads on twitter 🤷‍♂️

20m would've been more likely then based on what they told Everton when that turned their bid down.

{Ed001's Note - Everton were told that it would take 30m+ to even get a conversation started.}

15 Mar 2024 22:27:36
That's wild considering they then sold him for £17.5m plus add ons in the summer 🤯 Jan tax is mad.

And Aus, just found this article which states there is a 15% sell on clause.

16 Mar 2024 02:06:13
Thanks dill. Decent bit of dosh for cov to spend although prob regretting big time not getting more initially 👍.

17 Mar 2024 22:21:08
Scored a hattrick tonight. Having an unreal season.

Skoobs Lincoln beat Monks Cambridge 6-0 quiet news night, but made me smile.

Not wanting to be negative but Junior Firpo - what do we do with him?
5 assists this Calendar year
But he's just so slow, he gets caught up field and is slow getting back and just defensively seems woeful. What's people's thoughts? Do we just persist wit him or should Byram be starting?

Agree1 Disagree0

11 Mar 2024 15:27:14
Rotation with Sammy for now but with Junior playing the majority of games left. Sell in the summer. Replace with 2 LBs. One of them can be Very Good Davis.

11 Mar 2024 17:35:36
Should we be successful in gaining promotion, both Davis and Junior would “get ripped new ones” in the PL. Neither are anywhere near good enough.

11 Mar 2024 22:12:02
Brighty I agree so why don't you broker a deal for a Davis with an e in his name, as in Alphonso Davies? Or there's always Theo Hernandez whom presumably would keep Baz happy and remind him of Pablo. I can see £110M securing either (but not both) transfer (s) .

15 Mar 2024 07:02:43
I think Farke has stated that he likes him and says he is under appreciated. Our style of play is with attacking full backs, finding one that is very good at defending and assisting in attacks are expensive, we couldn’t afford better than Firpo at this moment in time.
Whether Firpo is in Farkes future plans in the Premiership should we make it, who knows?
All I know he is whether we like it or not an asset to the club where we are now.
His assists have been vital in our promotion bid, that is undeniable.

Evenin siblings on the dawn of this our revolution. I have to say I find it kinda amusing that DF is still questioned and the subject of us surviving in the prem has surfaced. What more proof is required, yes the prem is a whole new level, but the intensity and challenges in the championship are unique too, indeed is it not believed to be the toughest and hardest league to escape from in football? I said a while ago DF and the 49ers are building a new dynasty and this is founded on granite. Be assured we are so fortunate and the future IS White, the future is shiny shiny bright. I was called mad at the start of the season and will probably be labelled that again now 😆 Believe people, it's going to be awesome.
