The Football.....

Thanks Man City.

PS: Leicester fans were singing 'Champions of England, you'll never sing that' at Fratton Park last week. 1949 & 1950, actually....

I listened to the match on BBC Radio Manchester. I heard a tannoy announcement asking fans not to encroach onto the pitch near the end, or at the end of the game, followed by a loud mocking cheer suggesting it would be ignored. Then Rochdale scored in the 95th minute and on they went, totally ignoring the tannoy message. This obviously affected the players in their efforts to see the last two minutes of added time out. It looks like York players stayed focused, while Rochdale players kind of joined in the celebrations. Then for Rochdale, it all came crashing down!😏

Well, Liverpool in 4th place......who'd have thunk it! Some tough games coming up though so a real test ahead with lots of injuries in the squad.

Nice to see left to manage Stuart Maynard can do a good job. In contrast to the barking head coach and director of recruitment other clubs have.Means too often the head coach has has too many donkies to work with, aka his time at Notts.

Hardly "heartbreak" for Rochdale, well the players maybe but the pitch invaders are idiots who deserve little if any sympathy. What they were thinking is beyond me, and I'd be mighty hacked off if I was the owner.

Great atmosphere at the London Stadium yesterday.
When Tottenham scored then Everton equalized we were back in the relegation zone for four minutes but thankfully "old timer" Callum Wilson who loves scoring against Everton came though with the winner.
Pressure what pressure! 🥠
