    I think it’s more to do with an anti-Reform coalition quickly and organically working out how to vote to keep them out. It’s not just happened in Makerfield, it’s an emerging pattern in other by-elections. It also helped that Reform’s candidate was weak in all sorts of ways - the slightest bit...

    Was just going to post the same thing. Rick Edwards is in the US covering the World Cup for 5Live; he said on the station this morning that when he saw that photo he felt a weird mix of homesickness and pride.

    Daniel Levy - Former Chairman

    Tbf I don’t think he sees himself as a journalist or a presenter. He’s a talking head, paid to be controversial.

    I’m not at all convinced by Burnham; severe case of the emperor’s new clothes with him, I reckon. But no denying he’s delivered a resounding win in a seat I thought he’d probably lose at the beginning of the campaign.

    Tough morning for Mr Toad. He’ll probably be out from under his £5 million stone later to tell us that in any properly run election 34% of the vote would beat 54%.

    Which was kind of the point I was making.

    I don’t. Educated guess. Have they added additional seats to the stadium?

    Yip. I’m 56 and have a feeling I’ve only got a few more years left at the top level. Edit: Muttley beat me to it. Damn that pesky dawg!

    Romero and VDV are both supposed to be £50 million+ defenders and we’ve just finished 17th in consecutive seasons, having conceded a bucket load of goals each time. Go figure, as the World Cup joint hosts would say.

    You mean you don't want two? Do you hate the club???

    Possibly just the English teacher in me, but slightly ironic... :)

    Ditto. Pick and choose my games carefully now. It's a £150 day out for me minimum. Easy to see when attending a home game - there simply aren't anywhere near the same amount of Korean fans around now. At the games that I attended in the season just finished it was relatively rare to see one...

    I thought the game was against England? :)

    Daniel Levy - Former Chairman

    Agreed. Bottom line is we are not Leeds. We are a London based club with a massive worldwide support, a global brand and a state-of-the art stadium; not a club playing in a past-its-best ground in (relatively speaking) the back end of beyond, with a relatively small support that is almost...

    Three trophies in 25 years (two of them being League Cups) doesn’t scream success. Never thought it was.

    I got one too. I’d imagine there may be a few extra floating around; didn’t Proud Lilywhites say they wouldn’t be attending until RDZ was gone, for example? Also imagine a few will have been put off by paying top whack to watch two and a half seasons of dross from us in the PL. Cost of living...

    And before you know it we’re finishing 17th two seasons in a row - and being thankful for it.

    The decision to re-focus on the footballing side seems to have been made over a year ago, and quite possibly lies at the heart of why Levy went. Re-posted below is what Lee McQueen said on LWOS on 5th June last year, originally posted by me on 6th June 2025. Essentially all of the forecasts came...

    Plenty of times that him attempting to haggle over relatively small amounts (and therefore be seen to 'win' a negotiation) cost us when it came to signings that could have made a real difference.
