The Round Ball Game - II

[antongould]

Buddies came back from one-down to grab all three points at Fir Park tonight. Still third bottom, but a wee bit of daylight between us and the two teams below us...good result!

Excellent JC ...... just a few more like that ......

Great win for the Buddies away at high flying opponents.

I’ve forgotten what grabbing all three points is like!

How's it feeling this morning, cloughie? Boy, that was a late one, but a welcome one...glad to see S. Fletcher can still knock a goal in now and again!

I left choir practice at 9.30 with the 0-0 after 90 mins! Thought not again - but all turned out well - seems that but for Charlton having an excellent keeper we would have gleaned earlier and more from our 24 shots on goal!

Good news for Cloughie at last!

Well done Monky.

My Word.... from the Bayern masterclass at Chelsea, the Soccer Opera at the Bernabeu, to the astounding drama at The Emirates tonight....

No apologies for my addiction to European Football... God Knows what I'm going to do with my evenings next week...
oh wait a minute, there's that thing called....music...

I have to say that the news about Manchester City is quite amusing...sorry to any Man City fans and Sheikhs out there. Wonder if Rob has heard it on his southern sojourn? He'll like that one.

I did like that one John.
Trouble is we were staying with my brother and his family who are all mad unmentionables fans so I had to diplomatic

Could have been worse .... helping hand for Rob ......

[jayne lee wilson]

Not so much the score as how we're playing - or at least defending............ still time for a Crystanbul....

never stop fighting till the fight is done..

Well done Watford, who were like Hornets in possession but especially out of it. Closed us down incredibly well.
We looked tired, scarcely like scoring one let alone three. You'll see a very different team for the Chelsea tie (we haven't been the same since the Winter break), but it is all about Atletico now....and Hendo may not be fit. We missed Joe Gomez too, and there was no action man Milner to bring on either....

So now we are a bit sad...down for a few days..... but it had to happen some time....!
Well done Hornets again - you deserved it, you were great.

On to 11/03.....YNWA

Could barely watch the closing minutes.
No Hendo, no Milner - and boy did we miss them midfield, AND Fabinho and Lovren having a total nightmare of a game.
And Deeney was brilliant.
Crikey.

Och, well! The Cup's just a distraction, after all, is it not? Aberdeen scored early on another stormy night in Buddyville and then shut the shop and the Saints couldnae find the door, never mind the key. However, on a day of coupon busters on both sides of the border, I thought we might finish the day off, but not to be.

Palace would seem to be more or less safe with a welcome (and rare) 3 points gained down at local rivals, Brighton, though bitter experience makes us fans cautious to the end. We have tickets for the Watford game next week. Just when the Hornets seem to have got a vein of form. Might be an entertaining and feisty affair.
