    Do our tactics against Chelsea, Villa and Leicester warrant a change of approach?

    Despite a couple of clangers from Howson and Glover, I thought we looked relatively comfortable against Chelsea. Sitting in, not pressing the ball and packing the midfield to cut off the passing routes. Similar against Villa and Leicester. Only one (deflected) goal conceded in those games...

    Looking for spare ticket(s) for England vs Italy

    Howdy, I am unexpectedly in London this coming week. England vs Italy is sold out through official channels - does anyone have any idea how I might go about getting a ticket (or 2) ? Failing that, does anyone have a spare? There doesn't seem to be a resale market on...

    What's it like living in London?

    Luton agree fee for Giles

    This is purely speculation from my reading of the tea-leaves but the delay in Luton getting Giles over the line, despite agreeing a deal with Wolves, suggests that there's a hitch in him going there. From reading some of the rumours on OneBoro, he's been up for talks (and a medical?) and...

    'the big Wembley pitch'

    I am struggling to find it now but I read an article once that attempt to prove/disprove this theory of the bigger Wembley pitch. As others have pointed out, the pitch itself is pretty much standard - it's the size of the stadium that makes the pitch "feel" bigger to the players. The massive...

    Good point that.

    Our dominance of the ball completely flattened their crowd. The onslaught many, including me, were expecting, never came.

    Differing views of today's game.

    Coventry made a number of fouls which the referee correctly gave. Could sense the frustration from Coventry but they were the correct decisions. The only iffy decisions were Akpom's booking (didn't even look like a foul) and the Jones offside (looked v. tight).

    How many left for home leg?

    Yes - I've done that for my child of roughly the same age.
