Report

I think Ipswich were playing pretty good football early in the season - they just weren't getting any wins out of it. I can see it being like the last 1/4 of the season Burnley had last year - things click and they just have a style and enough quality and belief and start getting the points on the board.   I thought Southampton looked pretty dependent on Ramsdale to keep them up, and he's not good enough to do it with that defending in front of him. They already look done and dusted.   Who goes down with them is interesting though - I thought Palace's squad looked good coming out of the transfer window between retentions and signings - but apart from a couple of games they haven't played well at all. Wolves can't defend at all but they've got goals in them and I think that should keep them up eventually. Everton by contrast can't score but seem able to nick just enough wins to keep to about 1point per game which would usually keep a team up. I haven't really seen enough of Leicester this season to make any analysis, but they still seem pretty dependent on Vardy up front? Struggle to think anyone above the current bottom 6 will be dragged into it either.

don’t think they’ll risk filling the Sunday Pyramid lineup with ‘good but niche’ stuff like Jack White again after 2024. also a Deftones and Paramore clash would be very silly nonsense. 

Muse as a Foos replacement would work. 

Three gigs at SJP, too lazy to quote your original post….   Rarely are they used though, apparently it’s a logistical nightmare getting up Barrack Road with all the gear. 

I've been to Slam Dunk in 2023 which organizationally was quite messy. The timetable was a clusterf**k but even worse were on site set times that were delayed on some stages which screwed up my schedule. Was anyone there last year who can say if that improved? Talking about Hatfield btw. Quite hyped for the lineup again this year, but I expect chances are poor I get to see Alkaline Trio, New Found Glory, The Used and Finch full sets...
