The Football.....

[gaz71]

Know what you mean watching a bit of non league with my youngest has reminded me of why I love football. Freely walking around the whole pitch standing behind whichever goal the home team are attacking players in the club bar after the game. Oh and flying high at the top of the league is always a bonus

My local team are third.

Answer to question is no . Off to local pub with no TV hopefully it will be quiet can't stand watching it no longer . See you later

... you could be watching Norway v San Marino.

Norway are leading 1-0 courtesy of an own goal.

San Marino have scored again.. and this time they've put it in the right net!

Back from the pub enjoyable night not watching the England game . Just seen the score take it I didn't miss much

Once upon a time I used to look forward to watching England playing in the internationals. A bit of English pride and all.
Unfortunately that now seems to be condemned to the archives.

What we have now is a group of expect to plays, Premiership prima donnas. Headphone wearing over paid, can't be arsed no pride or passion non entertaining shysters.

I knew they were playing tonight. Mrs OTD asked if I was watching the game. I declined, preferring to take the dog for a walk instead. Curiosity got the better of me as I walked passed the local. I peered in the window and noticed the score close to the end being 0-0. I tutted and walked on.

I seriously believe it is now time for the England top brass to start looking at the Championship and blooding some of the players there. Maybe we would see some pride and fight return to the England team. We lost to Iceland in the Euros playing against League 1 & 2 players. Surely some of the better Championship players would reinstate some teeth back into the 3 lions.

Gordon Strachan confirms he knows his job title, but not necessarily what it entails

Bit harsh (though funny). I'd have taken 4 points out the first 3 games. His biggest mistake was overlooking The Thumb.

Pride and passion would be good, but right now I'd settle for a bit of basic competence. Blind back passes from around the halfway line - wha? If not for Hart it could easily have been 2 or 3 nil - and this against a side currently trailing Uganda, Guinea and Saudi Arabia in Fifa's world rankings.

Bit unfair on Slovenia. They played good football.

I bloody hate football again

I bloody hate football again

Me too
Weve now lost more games than the whole of last season
Go Foxes

 

[vickster]

I'm quite satisfied today

A hard earned, but deserved point for Everton at the Etihad today. After going ahead it was a bit disappointing to concede the equaliser, but it seemed inevitable with all City's pressure. Steklenberg saved 2 penalties and made 2 or 3 other top drawer saves - MOTM.

West Ham have taken the lead and Palace have just missed a penalty. I assume the purpose of West Ham's gameplan is to briefly give me hope, before snatching it away again late in the second half.
