I have been to Pride Park multiple times. I have been there for the League Cup, the FA Cup, and the league. I also went to the Baseball Ground twice.

I don't blame you. I've been to Plymouth twice, in 2006 and 2010, but right now I don't fancy going again, it's a long way to go for most away teams. I'm guessing you've never been to Elland Road before, can't think when Oxford would've last played there. I bought a ticket a few days ago for Derby away on Boxing Day, my second away match of the season.

Postponed, not cancelled. Sorry for being a pedant. Were you due to go?

Albion drew 0-0 at Sunderland last night and are now unbeaten in nine matches, although only one of those was a win. On Saturday I will be going to Preston for what will be my first match away match of the season and my first away match since I went to Norwich in January. Last season I saw Albion win 4-0 at Deepdale, so I am hoping for something similar this weekend.

I remember him playing for them when they had their season in the Premier League, 14 years ago now. After having only seen a total of three goals in seven matches prior to today, this afternoon I saw four goals in the first half. Unfortunately Karlan Grant had a goal disallowed that would have made it 3-2, and there were no more goals after that, but still the most entertaining match that I have attended so far this season. Even with those four goals though, I have still seen fewer goals this season at The Hawthorns than were scored in one match at the Kassam...

You're welcome, I guess! It wasn't pretty, but it was much needed. Seven games unbeaten now.

Watford vs. Oxford? There'll be yellow everywhere! The last time I went to Vicarage Road was August 2015, not sure how many times I've been there in total, but I've watched matches from three of the four stands.

Make that three goals I have seen in seven matches now, although I think the goal that Burnley had disallowed probably should have stood.

Which means that now the only team in the Championship on a longer winless run than Albion are QPR.

Baron Corbin has been given notice that this his contract won't be renewed. Indi Hartwell and my favourite, Tegan Nox, are also going to be leaving WWE, although it hasn't confirmed yet whether they've been released or whether, like Corbin, their contracts aren't being renewed. Update: it has since been confirmed that Indi and Tegan are both releases, not expiring contracts.

I had similar thoughts last night while catching up on NXT, thinking, "Please can this be the women's WarGames match" - hard to believe we'll get anything better from the women of either Raw or Smackdown.

Had you been to Sunderland before? I have now attended six matches this season and have seen a total of three goals scored across those matches, two by Albion and one by Middlesbrough.

Shows what I know.

At least someone enjoyed that goal!

It is a title exclusively for X, similar to how the Mixed Match Challenge was exclusively on Facebook.

Tickets for Albion's trip to Oxford in two weeks have sold - I hadn't even realised that they had gone on sale! I probably would've narrowly missed out anyway, think I would've just fallen short of having enough loyalty points, not having been to an away match since January.

I don't think you're imaging things, I'm sure it has been reported by the likes of Fightful that it's an intentional booking tactic by Triple H.

You're welcome! I think most of us had been anticipating that Gunther vs Sami Zayn for the World title would also take place at Bad Blood, but I believe it's going to be on next week's Raw instead, keeping Bad Blood to five matches, and giving Raw a big main event.

Five, there's also Nia Jax vs Bayley for the WWE Women's title.

An argument could be made that WWE need to do that with the women's world titles first, before introducing secondary titles for the women.

T-Hell is right, WWE will just do whatever the story calls for, although as far as Jimmy is concerned, he was on Smackdown previously, with the rest of the Bloodline, but I don't think he was actually included in this year's draft, I think he was written out prior to the draft taking place, which would make him a free agent.

Yeah, it was very enjoyable. I had to settle for watching it on TV as I couldn't get a train to Fratton today due to works being done on the line. Portsmouth doing pretty much the opposite of Oxford and Derby so far, although they have had some difficult fixtures to start the season, and I'm not just talking about today.

Well, even with Josh Murphy in their team for his Portsmouth debut, Albion were still too good for Portsmouth. I'm not getting carried away, it's only five matches into the season, but admittedly I would rather be in Albion's position than Cardiff's.

I only noticed earlier that after his heroics in the play-off final, Josh Murphy left Oxford for Portsmouth this summer.

Yeah, I agree. Presumably when they do split it will lead to a match at next year's Wrestlemania, which is still seven and a half months away, and though Triple H does like to extend stories for longer than the previous regime did, I think even that would be a bit much for him.
