The Football.....

Brilliant achievement, well done Derek Mciness a legend at my club Greenock Morton.

I hope he can become a Killie legend too. He's certainly making all the right moves with us despite initial misgivings from parts of our fanbase.

From scraping through the Championship, narrowly avoiding relegation on our return to the top flight to the Europa League qualifiers in two seasons.

Quite a turnaround after the almighty implosion following Steve Clarke's departure.

Yeah well done.

Trivia time...

Name the only English football League side who've never played at Wembley.

Until Crawley play on Sunday, there are two...

I was talking to a Spurs fan yesterday.
he was adamant that he wants Tottenham will throw the game against Man City to stop Arsenal winning the league.

I know a few with that sort of attitude, but I've never understood it.

They aren't just "for" their team, but are so strongly "against" certain other teams that they would rather their team lose if it stops the other team winning something.

 

[AndyRM]

I'd question anyone who claimed to be a fan who didn't want their team to win a game.

Depending on who you support there's grounds for caution over blind optimism of course, but a Spurs fan wanting to chuck a game just to hurt Arsenal is a joke.

Big Ange was still all out for a win!

Its all bollox as Spurs can still overall Villa for 4th place champs league spot, and be overhauled by Newcastle for 5th place if the also lost on Saturday. Of course they want to win the game tonight.

Beyond me that. Professional footballers (probably ANY footballer) wants to win. Can't believe Spurs will not go down fighting.

It’s totally unfair, but does provide entertainment.
otherwise there would be lots of teams with absolutely nothing to play for by February.

They are an abomination.

They are unfair and that in itself is contrary to the heart of sport itself ie fairness.

It's half time and 0-0 all around.Two second legs to come.i have got me heart pills.

I saw this today and it made me smile, amongst other emotions.

Do you think we'll do it?

So.......tomorrow we say a sad farewell to Jugen Clopp.
As a lifelong Lpool fan I will really miss him. Lots of football fans will miss him as a breath of fresh air.
TBH I will shed some tears as my wife (passed away in June) was a massive fan but won't be here to witness it, really sad.
I was here for the Shankly era and what a character he was.
