If this had the feeling of a cup final beforehand, it all felt fairly routine by the finish. Though we were frustratingly slow out of the gate yet again, we got the job done. Our habit of starting games slowly is likely to remain the endearing mystery of this season, as was our inability to […]
Wolves Vs Crystal Palace Preview
I’ve never been one for conspiracy theories in football but if there isn’t something sinister going on the standard and consistency of refereeing in the Premier League is simply appalling.
