Perfectly correct though. The oft written patronising comment tends to illustrate an acceptance of that.

Up to you whether want to accept reality.

I reckon if Sunak had persisted with HS2, you'd be lauding it... And rightly so.

One of the major advantages of HS2 is easing the pressure on local services. You simply can't run high speed and low speed on the same lines and expect either service to be efficient or reliable.

Hopefully it's not quite dead and buried just yet...

Have you any idea what that would do to our xG factor ???

It probably wouldn't affect it as xG covers actual attempts on the opposition goal and the likelihood of the particular chances being converted.

Getting rid rather than inviting pressure might improve our xGA, however.

Why are most teams suddenly setting up like they've  defence of Beckenbauers in their side. The amount of farting around with it at the back is mad trend.

Every game I watch there seems to be at least one goal conceded through dicking about

Fookin hoof it if there's nowt on🤣

 

I find myself willing a mistake by the defenders/keeper that results in a goal.  You see halves of football where the only chances "created" are by the keeper or CB passing it to one of their's (same as Northampton's first 2 chances v us, 1 in each half involving Santos/Baxter).  Its shit to watch and I love it when it goes pear shaped, which it often does.  The Bournemouth and Chelsea cock ups were the best this week as they both clearly cost their team points.

City don't really fart about with it as much as these mon are attempting at the back, they're only releasing the ball at the very last second.

Its piss funny watching the inevitable disasters though.
