POST-MATCH THREAD: Stoke City v Charlton Athletic: Saturday 5th September 2026: KO 12:30

2026-27 CL Prediction League Week 4 Results
If Arsenal hadn't beaten Chelsea, Week 4 would have been one of the lowest-scoring weeks on record. What's more, the game ended 2-1, one of the more popular scorelines. After being out of sorts for three weeks, @fat man on a moped got into top gear, scoring an impressive 8 points to be this week's top scorer. Similarly,…

Bag Limit Size Ban at The Valley
This seems to have snuck in as a rule completely unannounced from Saturday's game that bags bigger than A4 are banned from The Valley, CAST are on the case but I'm disappointed at the zero communication from the club about it, especially as I often have a rucksack with me to carry a coat & water, or whenever I come…

Starting XI for QPR on Weds
With multiple defenders out injured (Ramsay, Sichenje, Burke, Koumetio, Edwards), one suspended (McNamara) and Bell known to have issues if he’s pushed past his limits, how will this impact the starting line up on Wednesday night? We could go into it with Mesik RB and Bell LB again but we’re in even deeper sh*t if Bell…

Pubs, and the demise of.
Some of you may be aware that the Porcupine in Mottingham has closed down and been bought by Lidl. My personal view is that the place was a dump and would rather it became a Harvester or something along those lines but 1400 people have signed a petition calling for the pub to be saved. Have Pubs had their day or what?

Who should be captain?
In my opinion Lloyd Jones isn’t a captain in the true sense of the word. I want my captain cajoling players, bawling at players when necessary, a quiet word in their ear and encouraging when needed. After he gave away the pen Ouma needed someone saying, keep your head, forget it, keep going. But nothing. The same with…
