Mashed Potatoes

Great assist by er Rashford

With the new TV deals in recent years I think the reduction in revenues would be a lot more now.

As I said some weeks ago the Remembrance Day game was an inappropriate stage for protests - pleased to see that others listened.

Nonsense. The player who had been on the far post went AWOL. Pears perfectly entitled to be angry

I dont think the managers get that much time. I think Edward’s is their eighth manager in the last ten years.

Didn’t Eustace choose to start Pears ahead of Toth?

Would Alf Ramsey have selected Hurst if Greaves injury had not forced his hand ?

Another good win. Manager deserves a lot of credit for getting the team so well organised

England losing 2-0.Tyjon still on the bench

That's a forthcoming tournament with presumably a different qualifying date of birth for participants. If you go on to the FA's website you will see that he was playing for the England Under 18s against France a few days ago.

England under 18's.

You can say boo to that goose if you wish but you don't disrespect those who we remember on that day - do it sometime else .

Whatever the rights and wrongs of the selection decision no club or manager can be expected to tolerate agents attempting to influence team selections.

Who in the class of 24 do you think would be Championship level players in the years to come ?

Yet despite an outstanding goalscoring record for us Byrom never played in the top flight again after the age of 22 in 1966. Why was that ? Injury, attitude ,opponents rumbling a weakness in his game, switch of tactics in the game to 4-3-3 ?

Tyjon is with the England Under 18 squad this week.

Denis Law once scored six goals for Manchester City in an FA Cup match against Luton which was abandoned with City leading 6-2 after 69 minutes. The match was replayed and City lost.

None of the clubs you refer to had their issues from being in the Premier League - which is the most popular football league in the world - so I have no idea why you have dragged them in to it. The FA don't have sufficient jurisdiction - it is the EFL who have the jurisdiction. The new system for the independent regulator provides for more protection for clubs from unsatisfactory owners.

In the case of young players who interest Premier League clubs like Arsenal no Championship club is going to be able to match wages available from the Premier League club. The question will be whether the player - more likely his family - thinks it is in his long term interests to stay at the Championship club for the time being.

Chelsea have just become world club champions so how can he look any higher ?

Wharton has been included in the England squad for the forthcoming World Cup quaifiers.

The problem is in football it's speed over the first 3 to 8 yards that is usually decisive.

Interesting if he has pace because guys that tall usually don't.

Hasn't it been said that he intends returning to Norway at the end of this season ?

The hallmark of champions.
