    Team vs Stade Rennais

    Early, but this could be "interesting" with the number of players out! Assuming against Palace we get something like this: Lloris Emerson-Tanganga-Dier-Reguillon Hojberg-Dele-Winks Lucas-Kane-Gill We then still have Gollini, Doherty, Davies, Ndombele, Clarke and if fit Rodon to come in for...

    The club have put out a statement following an antisemitic incident on TalkSport yesterday. A caller phoned in and said Levy wouldn't spend any money on players because he's a Jew. The presenters looked shocked, but didn't challenge him and instead moved the conversation on. Talksport - Club...

    League Cup 3rd Round - Leyton Orient v Tottenham Hotspur

    This is the Tuesday before a Europa game in either Romania or North Macedonia if we beat Plovdiv. So nice to draw one of the smaller teams, but travel wise Orient would be much preferred - if it's Plymouth we might have to send an entire separate squad down there and hope for the best. We'll...

Poch will always be a hero, and we'll always have so much love for Hugo, Harry and the rest. We're on a good foundation for the long-term, with the...

    Apparently the club have asked the Trust to help consult on what we should do if we're drawn at home in the League Cup. Wembley isn't available so it'd be a choice between flipping the tie and playing it away, or finding an alternative "home" venue for the night. https://t.co/WRGfSfZ8kW
