THE OPPOSITION VIEW - Sunderland FC Women (Away)

All fan reaction from the the away draw at Rotherham. We learn the reason they play at the New York Stadium, Neal wins a bet by backing Bournemouth, Ellie is back on asking why her 11 year old nephew isn't in the 1st team as he is "better than Kabasele, we run a poll as to who should make up our back three (Ellie's nephew was excluded due to child labour laws). In addition Ron admits he may have made a mistake, we have calls from Dubai and Mexico City, Justin tries to get a job on radio and we talk about the football and the loanees from Villa looking like a positive COYH!

Ahead of our trip to South Yorkshire we talk to Matt from New York Talk Podcast about all things Rotherham (and occasionally he gets a word in). We find out how they are doing after their promotion last season and what its like to have the same manager for six years!!!! Yes that's right Years!!! We find out why Rotherham fans consume 45% more pies than other fans and also discover the collective noun for right wing backs! But most importantly we find out who really is their main rivals out of all the clubs in Yorkshire! Plus Pete wobbles on about Question of Sport for no good reason! Finally we play Celebrity Fan Top Trumps and Rotherham have a fine hand to play! COYH!!! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices Hosted on Acast.

The window closes and we fail to sign a right wing back - the position that has been apparent since we bought in ROb Edwards and missed out on Kane Wilson, Ethan Laird and a host of other seemingly available affordable home grown players. But - and as always with Pete - it's a BIG butt! We keep Sarr and Joao Pedro, we have Kamara, we have Hause and Choudhury and Davis (if he is ever fit) and Louza is coming back and we are in the Championship - so maybe anything is possible. So, as always with Watford, its not perfect but it's always perfectly Watford and for now that will have to do. COYH! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices Hosted on Acast.

So the centenary of the first game at the Vic. Fireworks, former players but a false start. JP had an exceptional game and one hopes that it was not for the scouts as we are 48 hours from the close of the transfer window. So a goal in the last minute to win is a tonic, just what the doctor ordered after QPR on Saturday, but whilst happy we acknowledge that there is still a certain element of "papering over the cracks" with the last minute winner and we discuss the good, the bad and the Bayo!

Once again we fail to come up with a opposition representative but instead we study the potted unofficial history of Middlesbrough Football Club and make our predictions anyway. We talk a bit about the QPR game, the transfer window, great games vs Boro, the gaps in midfield and defence, Justin has flashbacks of last season, taekwondo, lager vs real ale and we learn more about stillage than is really helpful.

Are QPR a local rival, for some there is clearly a lot of animosity it seems. So, after going behind three times in a game when defending seemed preferred but by no means essential the Hornets finally succumbed to their first league defeat of the season. It has been a hard week for Rob Edwards and you hope with the 100 years of the Vic game v Boro and the transfer window closing he has a better one this week!! In the meantime we talk about the land of Uncle Ron and whether you need to be sleep deprived to visit and how many Calypo's could you buy with the £16m fee for the sale of Kamara and whether playing in a back 3 or 4 is good when he goes forward a lot!.

As the transfer window counts down we suffer a first defeat of the season in the Carabao Cup to MK Dons who were well worth there win. Should we be alarmed at the performance individually in some cases and collectively overall or is this a symptom of a freshly assembled squad allowing Rob Edwards to see what he has in the rest of the squad? As ever the contributors make the most sense, but even in a week when those pro or anti the current ownership regime have been debating hotly with one another - all here are in support of Rob Edwards and want the hierarchy to support him in what is left of the transfer window and beyond. A bad day at the office but perhaps but we are still unbeaten in the league. Fingers crossed for Saturday vs QPR at the Vic! COYH! Learn more about your ad choices.
