Is there a statistic that shows long throws to be more effective than shorter ones?
I always think they give the opposition time to organise and defend.

Well I think I’ve seen more quality in the bargain section at Aldi. Not exactly a classic is it.

Fairly typical of FC Köln to leave it to the last game of the season. On the same day Charlton play their first playoff match as well.

I don’t think I’ve ever had such bad hay fever.

I’m hoping we bin the Burton Albion game off and just field an academy side. I know it would go against every fibre in Nathan Jones’ soul to do so but resting the players would be beneficial.
Field an academy squad. #cafc
