The Round Ball Game - II

[johncorrigan]

We do losing rather well Rob ...... years of practice .......

So I notice, anton.

In my head they’re already down so survival would be a massive bonus and bring joy to a wet weekend.

If it's any consolation, we're quite a friendly bunch down here in Tier 3.

Bad luck Cloughie. That was a tough one to take after such a hard uphill struggle.
The darkest hour etc.......

I do feel a little bit guilty hoping you would drop points Anton but I suppose it's dog eat dog.
Torquay drew but it was asking a lot for Sutton not to beat Weymouth
Stockport v Torquay Sunday 16th May live on BT Sport

Absolutely gutted for cloughie

If I’m honest we were down weeks ago, I think Derby deserved to go down with us - two badly run clubs who have paid the price of overspending to try to reach the promised land of the Prem. I fear it will be a long road back. Rotherham on the other hand will make a swift return.

They came so close to staying up though, I really believed they were going to do it at 3-2

The difference in finishing decided it at Anfield. Opportunity wasted , as we had some decent chances.

Think Liverpool will sneak a top 4 finish?

Might, cloughie. Do you think Man City will manage to win the league? More importantly, will the Buddies get to the Scottish Cup final, where Jack Ross' mob awaits?

Yes to City, dreckly and best of fortune today to you jc!

Mention of City - surely it is a Covid no brainer - the CL final should be switched to Wembley, but the UEFa puddin’ heads are probably so peed off with an all English final that they’re not going to change it.

BUT might work FOR UK - after all fans here mightily helped snuff ESL, and maybe EUFA HAS to be seriously gratful for that?

Seems totally mad, cloughie...makes absolutely no sense no matter which way you look at it. I reckon they should just abandon the final.

In the 'good old days' before the Champions League became the bloated monster it is today, there was, of course, no possibility of a final between 2 teams from the same country, so the problem wouldn't have arisen.
