2026-27 CL Prediction League Week 10 Fixtures
TMA is in Thailand right now. Today, it hammered with rain, which wiped out the internet in my hotel for the rest of the day. Hence, the slightly late posting this week. In the line of duty, I've been forced to go to a nearby pub, where the wifi is fine, at 11 pm to post this week's fixtures. It proves running the…

I am going to say it!! Yes I am, Nathan Jones......................
Out!!!! yes I said it and I don't care. Shit negative football, making 4-6 changes every game tell us he is desperate and has no clue. Dropping decent players who have played well for no reason. Horrible little manager with no clue whatsoever. How have we come into the season with no attacking midfielders and no wingers.…

Managerial sackings, comings and goings

I saw this idea elsewhere and thought some would like to try it for fun. The rules are you post a song starting with the next letter alphabetically than the one before, but including a live video. You shouldn't jump back a letter if someone gets in quickly. Once B follows A you shouldn't then post an A song until we go…

where the tickets are for this match. Coming up to 3 weeks to go and they are not on sale yet. The usual approach taken by the ticket office is to spread the sale over multiple phases that will probably take up a week on its own.

Touching on my comment on the post-match thread (Watford), I'm curious to what others think are the reasons our board haven't invested in the squad sufficiently over the summer? Is it down to they simply can't afford to? Rumours about their wealth seem to go against this, so is it just that they simply don't want to invest…

POST-MATCH THREAD: Charlton Athletic v Norwich City: Saturday 24th October 2026: KO 12:30
Four changes today for this early kickoff against visitors Norwich City. Charlie Kelman, Joe Rankin-Costello, Josh Edwards, and Sonny Carey make the starting eleven. Norwich are in a poor run of form, as are Charlton, so this was likely to be a cagey affair. Charlton seemed to have lost the toss and Norwich turned them…
