Never mind, now we can concentrate on pushing for the league title :sad:
 
View attachment 111282 Yep, bright start and 1-0 up quickly but not quite at the races today, being caught out by their pace on a very wet pitch. I'm one of the dark figures behind the Coventry Spartans flag.

Matlock's ground reminds me a lot of Vale of Leithen, nestled in the bowl of the hills.

What's happened to my team ? .Were back to where I used to expect them to be but after last year the expectations are a bit higher . At leaxt we have the champions league to look foward to
Come on Foxes pull your socks up !
 
Not that I saw the game (followed it on BBC website) but West Ham seem to be in really dire trouble.

Whether it's failing to adjust to a new 'home', lack of decent players, or even the manager (who has an unenviable job), something has to be done before the Hammers really fall out of control and land relegated at the end of the season.

I hope they pull it round, as there are worse teams than them in the Premier League, but they have to start winning again soon: without confidence, you're doomed. The fans have turned against them and if the ground has only 15 -20,000 it, I'm guessing financial problems will beset them too.

We can only hope the teams below us are even worse than we are. I wouldn't be too concerned about crowd numbers if West Ham have to play in the Championship, traditionally they have drawn as strong a crowd in the second tier as they do in the top one.

I've sat about, watched footie & drunk beer all day. :okay: I enjoyed the Man City - Chelsea game (Luiz had it coming), the El Classico was a cracker and I even enjoyed L666ds - Villa at the same time as Leipzig - Schalke . I watched all these because I was too tight to pay £15 to walk up the road and watch Guiseley v Chester. :smile:

Oh, and I saw Fabregas slap Fernandinho then throw himself over the advertising hoardings, that was only after a couple of beers............

Time you enjoyed wasting was not wasted
After a nice ride this morning, got home to see the 2nd half of City v Chelsea, good game, at the moment Chelsea look far more focused and fired up and therefore likely to be title winners - Costa is amazing and Hazard is a joy to watch, but they are good all round. Shame about it kicking off at the end, spoiled a good game.

Then watched West Ham v Arsenal at 5.30. Feel for the Hammers at present, nothing is going their way, I like Bilic, hope they get it right. But Sanchez is on a different level, what a player. Oxlaide Chamberlain had a very good game too.

Off to Goodison to see the Toffees take on Home Counties......I mean Manchester.....Utd tomorrow - not too optimistic, we've been misfiring all season and they seem to be hitting some form of late, but who knows when things can suddenly turn your way, and if nothing else, we'll enjoy the beer....COYB!!!
