CHELSEA PREVIEW… October 22, 2021 - I often enjoy writing the previews. It can be an interesting exercise to analyse the opposition and try and work out how they’re likely to set up and suggest weaknesses that City may be able to exploit. In the Championship it was fun. Then I started thinking about this game… ...
LEICESTER PREVIEW: Our pre-season is over, let’s start collecting some points. August 27, 2021 - Saturday 5.00 pm: “Jesus, that defending… and still no defensive midfielder in sight… it’s eerily reminiscent of the last ten games of 19/20… I’m getting nervous”. Monday 12:00 pm: “Brandon Williams has been confirmed. He might be more needed than we thought after Saturday. Good signing that”. Monday 10:00 pm:… ...
No panic stations yet, but let’s not kid ourselves the prep has gone as planned August 3, 2021 - If you’re reading this you’re already enough of a part of the online #NCFC community to have found the MFW site, and so more than likely you’ll be at least regularly aware of the ongoing message boards and Twitter hashtags around #NCFC. While there is good fun, humour and comradeship… ...
For us children of the Webberlution, it’s fascinating to see how this squad evolves July 15, 2021 - With the Championship trophy sitting pride of place on the Carrow Road mantelpiece, Stuart Webber has embarked upon another challenging offseason, reshaping Daniel Farke’s squad once more. Unlike previous years, he actually has something of a “war chest” this time, mainly thanks to the club-record sale of Emi Buendia, albeit… ...
Headteacher’s Report: Andy H delivers his 2020-21 end-of-term appraisal May 11, 2021 - We watched with tremendous pride from afar as Herr Farke’s class represented us with the intelligence, creativity and courage which has become their trademark. Another successful year means we will once again be facing our Oxbridge-level counterparts next term, but we will do so full of confidence and steadfast in… ...
READING PREVIEW: By 5:00 pm tomorrow, will City be ‘Championes’ once more? April 30, 2021 - Okay, I confess. If Watford hadn’t won on Saturday, this would have been about half a paragraph long because we’d have had the title and Reading are out of playoff contention so both teams would be on the beach. Yarmouth admittedly, but the beach nonetheless. But bloody Sarr had to… ...
TERRIERS PREVIEW: Plodders… water carriers… and Frazier Campbell worldies April 5, 2021 - A Tuesday night at home, under the floodlights, with promotion inching closer. How good would it be to have Carrow Road packed to the rafters for this one? Sadly, we’re still a few months away from such lofty ambitions of normality, but as the potential for such activities gets closer… ...
LUTON PREVIEW: Buoyant Hatters at the Carra, after two big wins on the spin March 5, 2021 - So once more, I’ve drawn the lucky straw and got the preview for the same team I did earlier in the season. If you want to know how that went, I’m sure Mr Gowers will be kind enough to insert a link here. Having read it back, I wasn’t far… ...
COVENTRY PREVIEW: Ball-playing Scots… lumpy loanees… & that nice Mr Robins February 16, 2021 - This could have been a very different task on paper had Norwich not done a professional demolition job against Stoke on Saturday. Despite throwing opportunities at the opposition, having a week of uninterrupted preparation allowed the instinctive passing, movement and creativity to flow in the final third in a way… ...
CARDIFF PREVIEW: Moore to step into the Bluebirds’ Big Sean Morrison™ breach? January 15, 2021 - Alright, I can save us all a lot of time on this one. If Mr Gowers would be so kind as to <INSERT LINK HERE> you can see my Cardiff preview from when we played the home fixture less than a month ago. You’re welcome. [nice try, Andy – Ed]… ...
