No idea how this will go but I'm going for a barcode win. Yes, I'm a miserable git but the way we haven't been able to strengthen in the window is a worry.

Post by: eamonn on August 05, 2025, 06:01:28 PM: Gone way too early with this, even the more excitable amongst us (Toronto, Footy-Vill) would have Netflix and chilled for a few more days before opening the new season in haste.

Villa to lose against 10 men.

I'm not certain, you'll need to double-check with Tim.

Nope. One for DOGSO which is what he got the red for. The FA would have to decide on any further ban length and they have not said a dicky since.
