Birmingham and Blackpool both went down with 39 points in 2011. Personally I think 35/36 will be the cut-off #LUFC

It's actually 15 years since 40 points were required #LUFC

I think 6-7 is more realistic.#LUFC

He's scored fewer for Leeds in 2025 than either Firpo or Bogle. They're both full backs and Firpo left in June.

He's scored two goals since December.

We'll just have to disagree on that. He works hard, but his control, decision-making, shooting ability and attacking instincts are just not PL level, imho.

Can't agree with you on Brenden. He was poor again today. He's just not good enough #LUFC

No criticism of the effort, but if you don't recruit players of sufficient craft and quality in attacking areas, that is what is going to happen #LUFC

He's the ref who did Luton away last season. Let an awful lot go then I seem to recall.

Too many turnovers from our midfield in the first half. 1-1 about right. #LUFC

You think Servebots are a problem in women's tennis?

You're joking aren't you? I'm not a golf fan but Rory Mcllroy will win it.

Rory Mcllroy will win SPOTY without any doubt.

That's a consequence of cycling's recent history.

The issue was not taking him off just before the free kick imho, it was not taking him off earlier. He was completely spent #LUFC

40 points haven't been needed for 15 years. 35/36 will almost certainly be enough. #LUFC

27.09.2025 20:10 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

An excellent performance against a team who will probably finish in the top half. The worry is that it's now 3 injury time goals conceded in only 6 games #LUFC

They aren't on the books. If they have a central contract, they're employed by the ECB- Durham we won't be paying them a penny.

Hmmm. The less said about the defending of the free kick, the better #LUFC

Shambolic organisation at the fk there

But we weren't a promoted side. It was in our third season, so it's correct

27.09.2025 13:20 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 2    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

That was in our third season though.

Asked the question earlier, but not got a definitive answer. Is he the first Asian to captain a Championship winning team? I think he might be.

25.09.2025 22:13 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Would Hameed be the first Asian captain to lift the County Championship should Notts win it?

Tough game. A point would be a good result. Semenyo was ยฃ10m from Bristol City. Probably worth ยฃ40m now. Great business from them #LUFC

As you were. The Raphinha one was the last one in the regular season #LUFC

Who is her coach again?

Quite funny watching Rooney trying to analyse West Ham's defending of set pieces

21.09.2025 06:39 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

6 wins against those 6, 2 wins against those who will likely finish mid-table (ish)(Forest, Fulham, Palace, Bournemouth, Brighton). 1 win against the likely European contenders. That's 9 wins. With a few draws that equals safety.

Thought pre-season that if we could win 6 of our 12 matches v Burnley, Sunderland, Wolves, West Ham, Everton and Brentford, we'd stay up. 2 out of 2 already. 4 out of the remaining 10 is achievable #LUFC
