The Round Ball Game - II

[gurnemanz]

Good and important win for Palace in Forum derby as they lurch towards mid-table. I thought Glasner was a bit hard on the team. Interplay not always coherent but they looked committed and defended well. A clean sheet away can't be bad + two excellent goals. Vardy missed chances.

Played really well in possession, caused problems for the opposition , but still left enough time to let the game slip away.
more positives than negatives, but some luck and points a bit overdue now.

That was disappointing to lose the game in Fergie-time, ts. The ball just ain't running for the southern saints just now. Hope you have a change of fortune imminently...likewise for the Foxes.

Buddies managed to scrape through 3-1 in Dumfries yesterday, so in the hat for the last 16. You've got to be in it to get knocked out of it.

We need the rub of the green, and really didn’t get it today, AG. The mighty Joelinton might easily have seen red, but avoided even a yellow.
Not our worst performance, but we were way too easily opened up I’m afraid.

Scored too early, ts.
Unexpected three-goal saunter in Pittodrie Park for the Buddies yesterday. Hopefully coming back into a bit of form. Back up to seven.

Great win for us and good to see our two oldies, Smudge and Pato get the goals. Also, ts good to see that the Saints have let us have Shea back (was never going to be a Blade) - if he continues to play as he has to date he’ll either be a great asset to you next season or increase his price if you move him on. Looks like 5th and 6th places are up for any side who can go on a fair run.

I know it's a greatly overused phrase, but TBs v Saints really is a 'must-win' for both sides.

I heard on the radio the other day the striking fact that only one Football League team is in a constituency with a Tory MP - namely Bromley. I remember in one of our first geography lessons in my first year of secondary school - i.e. many decades ago - the teacher got us to draw a map of England marking the locations of all the English League teams. I suppose the result made a particular sociological point obviously clear.

I watched a bit of p******th against recently . How Boro are in the top 6 must remain a mystery. Hopeless.
anyway, everybody down here was happy to see Charles going back to you. Bags of class , but another half season in S Yorks should have him fine tuned for us next season !!
