    Leny Yoro has been at Man United for 13 months and still hasn't started in a win against a current Premier League side.
    He did yesterday.

    West Brom u18 striker Justin Seven-Seven scored in the 7th minute in their 5-0 win over Ipswich u18s.
    If he makes it as a pro, then if his squad number isn't 77 i'll be sorely disappointed.
    Pleased to report that according to t'internet he wears number 77 in training, so I guess it's not something he's opposed to.

    Ernest Mangnall is one of only three men who have ever won the league title as manager of Manchester United (the other two are rather easier to guess). Here he is sporting a rather wonderful hat-tache combination.

    I think this fact may be missing a word!

    Thanks Sporadic. I've now rearranged my word salad into something which hopefully makes sense.

    Carlisle won at Brackley in the National League the other evening, and join Scunthorpe as having won at St. James' Park in three different locations.

    I wonder how many teams have won at 2 different St James Parks and 2 different Highburys (Arsenal & Fleetwood).

    It would save the fans money if they got a Repro shirt.

    The Premiership need 14 clubs to vote together to effect rule changes. 

    Americans have control of nine Premiership clubs and nine Championship clubs.  There is yet more American ownership in the lower leagues, including one sleeping giant in SE London.

    Back to the rule of 14 ... Would it be in American interests to move matches to the States or maybe introduce a no relegation rule in line with the NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, and MLS?


    They ARE already trying to introduce no relegation for 17 clubs. It’s called FSR.

    With five goals in four games, this is Erling Haaland’s worst-ever start to a Premier League season.

    And yet 12 goals in his first 7 matches for club and country is his best ever start to a season in the 9 years since he started playing professional football.
