Football 22/23

[barney]

We won !
Not only did we win but we looked blooming good doing it.
Carbao cup tomorrow and I’m hoping he puts the kids out.
Too small a squad to risk injury.
It’s not like we’re ever going to win it

Won the cup tie as well 2-0
Not an attractive draw for the next round.
Exeter at home.
I’d have been happier with Exeter away personally.
Winable and away to Arsenal in the next round would be good.

Cooking with gas now Barney.

Cooking with gas now Barney.

Whoa.! Can’t afford to do that. Salads for life now.

[oldbluefox]

Drink driving prosecutions are down. Can't afford to do it any more.

[Bensham33]

A terrific game and a brilliant result for the Palace at Liverpool last night. 1-1 and fully deserved, it was nearly a win as well

[Manoverboard]

Wilf's goal was a blinder ...

[screwy]

So was Diaz, unfortunately.

I can’t believe the amount of people supporting Nunez.

[Manoverboard]

Hornet Sarr's recent goal from his own half will be the Championship goal of the Season ... Oh Yes

[Bensham33]

Bloody Man City

[oldbluefox]

Hornet Sarr's recent goal from his own half will be the Championship goal of the Season ... Oh Yes

Would look good in a Foxes shirt.............

[Manoverboard]

... if they could afford him

[barney]

I’m right off football at the moment.
Disastrous start for us.
Boooo!

I noticed that the Hornettes beat your Gillettes 3 : 2

[oldbluefox]

Nothing like kicking a man when he's down.

[Manoverboard]

If one supports the Hornets or the Gills one gets used to it

Bizarrely, the Gills are not actually playing badly which makes it all the worse.
If we looked clueless, I could understand it but Tranmere aside, we’ve looked good.
Scoring only one league goal is the obvious problem.
Loads of chances but nothing going in.
Up until the final third, we control the game well, then no end product.
Maybe hoofball is the answer in league two.
Ten years ago we won this division with Mad Dog Martin Allen and we had a huge, physical side who steam rollered the opposition.
Now we have nippy little ball players.
We must have the shortest team in the division.

Those with BT Sport are in for a treat this week, with all Premier League games being shown live over 3 nights, starting tonight.

[Manoverboard]

I dumped BT Sport ... then the Prem

Ditto
I don’t watch any Premier league football now.
Hopefully the European Super League will rear it’s head again and the billionaire foreign owners bugger off to it.
Then the top English division can once again be truly competitive.

There have been some exciting matches so far in the PL on Sky, Brentford v Man U, Chelsea v Tottenham, Newcastle v Man C, Leeds v Chelsea, to name but a few.

[Bensham33]

I rarely watch football on the telly. The EFL programme now on ITV on a Saturday night is about all I do watch. I'll occasionally look at MotD.

You can't beat watching football live, at any level, especially when your team wins against all the odds or you score the winning goal in injury time.

[Manoverboard]

Prem wise ... I record then watch MOTD cos I can space it up if there aren't any goals to see. I will also record the half hour highlights on SKY for the games involving Notts Forrest, Fulham and Bournemouth ( BT Sport permitting ) but I did not enjoy watching Liverpool putting the Cherries to the sword.

[screwy]

Sorry about the result tonight Foxy, you’ve got a lot of problems there. Obviously I’m delighted Utd won,not playing great yet but results starting to come, 3 on the bounce now.

[oldbluefox]

You're not wrong screwy. Hopefully our one buy will put a patch on the defence but we wasted our chances and you can't afford to do that against teams like Manu. We have too many players off form at the moment.

I'm now wondering how much longer Rodgers is going to last as some of our play is so negative and destroys excitement..

[screwy]

Chelsea. New owners, same outcomes. With Tuchel sacked who would want that poison chalice.? Thought Utd was bad.!
