The Round Ball Game

[Beef Oven!]

His big mistake was shouting at that lovely lady doctor. You scorn a lady at your peril and the players' morale slumped when she left.

Apparently that gorgeous female doctor was seeing that ugly petulant Brazilian who wears the #19 shirt. When Jose sacked her, it all went tits-up.

Anyway, it'll be our gain - when we sack Lucy van Ghoul next week, we'll take the chosen one as Sir Alex's proper successor.

I suppose you want Balotelli as captain.

That's far-fetched.

Well the Manyoo job was the one Jose wanted ,then Chelsea came calling and Moyes got the gig.

Manchester United, if it's all the same with you.

What you say, bodes well.

Yep that's them !

Difficult to feel a great deal of pity for The Special One, especially as he'll have now received literally millions for lying on a beach on some South Pacific or Indian ocean island for the next few months to garner quite enough pity for himself, before he finally agrees to his next most lucrative offer. Recently his public behaviour, especially that horridly ungentlemanly conduct towards the lovely doctoress , had gone from entertaining to bizarre and downright childish.

Anyway, he has now discovered that not even The Special One is that special though if I were him I'd be rather relieved not to have to worry about the currently parlous league position of Chelsea FC anymore ...

Fascinating game Alloa v St Mirren on Saturday. Good luck John.

Wonder if Sainty is at SMS for Spurs match.

Wolves defence looked weak v Leeds so Cloughster can feel confident for Sunday.

One or two regulars out for Foxes at Everton including central defence . But we can still score.

Problem is our defence is going through a dodgy patch with the absence of Lees.

i'll be there tomorrow, Alison.
Looking forward to it,although we need to find some better form.

Evertons strength is their speed in attack, so your full backs will need to have a good day.

Back in the day attendances used to be very poor last saturday before Xmas, I wonder if that is still the case?

Loads of empty seats at the televised championship matches this week.

Have a good afternoon Sainty, do you have a set prematch routine?

Good luck to all forum teams!

Thanks Alison.No real routine, but I often crank this one up on the car stereo, if driving to the game. Train tomorrow though.
A fantastic record from a wonderful Southampton ( and portsmouth !) band.

Anybody else got a pre match routine ? Party seven on a football special, that sort of thing?

Those were the days

I live just a few minutes walk away from the ground so pre match routine is pretty much the normal routine.
Yes good luck to all our teams,wonder what's the closest we've come to a 100% forum record of a weekend ?
That would be some acca !

[John Wright]

Been absent from these forums for a few months, now I have time to do stuff!!

Thanks for keeping the footie thread going ER!

Sheffield United 1 Coventry City 0 Super run of form ended after conceding on 80 mins,and a late red card

Yes we have slipped but still 2nd in the table this morning.

It's a bit artificial though, I do worry for Cov if some of our loan stars disappear in January

Nice to see you back around, John.
6 Pointer and a new manager for us today...Alex Rae...Ray of hope or merely the light of the oncoming express train. Beep! Beep! Hopefully early Christmas present unwrapped.
