    Extend the Early Bird?

    Could just make it affordable for all and everyone would be happy.

    Boro fans congratulating Newcastle...

    Id sooner talk to a Geordie or a Mackem over anyone from the country, but I would never be happy or congratulate them. Especially when they have needed the backing of an evil regime to win something, and we just had a local fan. Rivalry is important in football, it keeps it fun and meaningful...

    Another season with only 2 cup games

    Cup should matter every season, cup final day is the stuff of dreams and etches a team into folklore.

    Life getting sucked out of football

    Despise the way managers and such go on about how great and historic the competition is, looking at you Mr Carrick, then play a weakened side. The random kick off times, the ***** effort from teams, this cup is dead unless youre a tiny club.

    Todays MOTM vs Blackburn Rovers

    Clarke was one of the most forward thinking players today.

    Alcohol at football

    People take cups of coke/water etc into the stands and dont throw them about when we score, not that ive seen anyway. You'd have to be mental to pay them prices for a pint then throwing it. I dont get the argument of it will make more drunks in the stadium, people are talking as if itll be like...

    Referees, Assistants/Lino's.....are they getting worse?

    Premier League refs have it 'easy' with them being able to fall back on VAR, but they also have segments on Sky Sports rating their performances and descions. In the EFL the officials rarely get any scrutiny other than by fans on a match day. Its a hard job at times but surely the gulf in class...

    Yusuf vs Steward

    There was definitely some change in the stewards on Saturday, a lot of these badge wearing contract style doyles were about particularly in the South. Over the years ive noticed that there is always chew with these that appear for one game or 2 every now and then. The usual steward who stands in...

    If RF want to enhance the atmosphere at The Riverside

    It was proved when it got adapted from Wilder to Carrick due to demand it didnt bring the atmosphere. Was sang loud for a game in the play offs and that was it. The problem isnt on RF, fair enough they sing songs that not everyones a fan of, but when they sing the classics and non RF specific...

    Why don’t we get stuck in?

    Think it was the game plan to sit tight last night and not get dragged out of position

    The rave music and light show before the game.

    Dont understand it me, and I know its a naive comment but its just pressing a play button isnt it? the half arsed dj table pitch side is pointless. Needlessly loud and light shows never add any atmosphere. The best light show ive seen is when Man City used to drop the lights and just have a...

    Racist chanting at Leeds match

    Awful that stand at Leeds, full of zero craic. Obsessed with singing about nonces and peados which sums up the brain dead desperate to be funny chants.

    Never to VAR.
