Not my words - Kieran McKenna said that. So you know it’s big!

We believe in Blue 💙

Good news: Town are in the hunt for the top two 🙌🏻

Bad news: They have several underperforming players who they need more from in the second half of the season 🧐

After the first report spread last week, there’s been a lot more noise suggesting that #CFC youngster Kendry Páez will be recalled from his loan spell at Strasbourg and sent to #itfc for the rest of 2025/26.

Here’s the latest as we understand it… 👇

When Town return to league action on Saturday, they’ll be third in the table.

My old mate the supercomputer has been running the numbers - and here’s where they’re predicted to finish…

A busy day for sackings today! ❌

Inevitably, as with the now vacant Manchester United job, Town boss Kieran McKenna is also among the favourites for the now vacant Celtic job too.

Looks like only one man is going to get it, though ⬇️

We thought we’d have an #itfc game to talk about on tomorrow’s KOA pod - but we don’t! 🥶

So let’s have your questions, thoughts and observations on all things Town - postponement, January, anything at all!

It’s emerged there were three separate pitch inspections before today’s #itfc game at Pompey was postponed.

The first time it’s happened in almost 14 years 🥶🥶🥶
