  1. It cannot be 'a good bench defensively' without a GK.
  2. EFL have said they will not take place at the time of the funeral. 7pm is feasible, but noon maybe not (after Port Vale's game of three 'halves' yesterday).
  3. But Stalin wasn't Russian.
  4. Not the best performance, nor the best result - but we did move into third and the nearest three challengers all lost. Whereas Colchester may have been happy with a point at 3 o'clock, but they were in the mire two hours later. They have picked up 4 points in the last 8 games, against Grimsby's 9, Southend's 6 from 6 (and home to Carlisle tomorrow), and Barrow's 15 from 7. So for Colchester today a draw was a far worse result than for Bolton.
  5. Alba are not standing in individual constituencies, just in the regional lists for additional members. As in 2016 SNP won 59 of 73 constituencies, plus just 4 additional members, the new party will have negligible direct effect on SNP but will almost certainly pick up more additional members and SNP+Alba may have a majority. The irony is that those seeking indepenence are best served by voting for SNP in constituencies and Alba in regions. Any SNP votes in regional additional seats will likely be wasted and certainly reduce Alba's impact. If the leaders simply throw mud at each other the Unionist parties may fare better. Even Galloway.

    !
  7. A unique record of the Worthington brothers is that in 1970-71 they became the first trio of brothers to be ever-presents in a Football League season - Bob at Notts County, Dave at Grimsby and Frank at Huddersfield.
  8. Does it include the rearranged fixtures?
  9. MalcolmW replied to Traf's topic in Terrace Talk
    He was suspended from football activity in December 2016 and never reinstated.
  10. Tranmere have no game on Tuesday - they are at Grimsby on Wednesday. They are playing Sunderland tomorrow in the EFL Trophy
  11. and how did investigations lead to him?
  12. Barrow sneaked a late win at Walsall tonight.
  13. Maybe Brewster's serious knee and ankle injury in 2018 took the edge off his prospects at the top level?
  14. He was brought up in Glazebury, possibly next door to a young PG.
  15. Dean Henderson in goal (on loan from MU) was key in getting them promoted, and then key in keeping them up in the PL. Without him this season they are suffering.
  16. My projection has all three as draws, and Morecambe too, with all the rest as wins.
  17. Crawley entertain Bolton on the final day. They may well be in the mix needing a win to get to the play-offs. Exeter have Barrow on the final day, visit Bolton the previous weekend after a midweek home to Grimsby. They can expect at least 6 points from those three, and may need more to scrape into the play-offs. We have Grimsby in their death throes, and then four contenders to finish (although at least one of those may have fallen out of contention.
  18. We are 7th now. Exeter are a point behind with 2 games in hand. Crawley and Bradford C are both too close for comfort. Salford are in a rut and Carlisle look as though they are floundering, but we are far from guaranteed a top 7 place. But all that said I still think we are on schedule for automatic promotion, possibly as champions.
  19. Taking into account tonight's results: Bolton 82, Tranmere 81, Forest Green 80; Cheltenham 78, Cambridge 77, Newport 75, Carlisle 74 / Morecambe 74 / Exeter 74; Salford 73, Bradford C 71.
  20. Yes, because there was no Football League in 1945-46 but there was an FA Cup, so ties were two legs before the semis.
  21. You can fill it in early provided you notify any unexpected changes between then and the 21st. Maybe the website will crash under the volume of traffic on the 21st. It's a sobering thought that the census of 1841 was more accurate than this year's is likely to be.
  22. MalcolmW replied to Eddie's topic in Terrace Talk
    I think you mean 10 clubs who feasibly can get more points. Theoretically many more can. They just won't.

    Strangly, the three countries with 20%+ of over 65s are Japan, Italy and Germany. (Don't mention the war). UK is typical of major countries with 18.5%, less than France but more than USA. Obesity seems to be a major factor in Covid-19 death levels.
  24. Taking into account todays results: Bolton 82, Cheltenham 81, Tranmere 81; Forest Green 80, Cambridge 77, Carlisle 76, Salford 74 / Morecambe 74; Newport 73, Bradford C 72, Exeter 72.

    The fact that lots of countries will be competing to borrow money means that the interest rates for borrowing will increase (supply and demand).
