How's your footy team doing?

What was the ref thinking of sending a Swansea player off early. That gave them the chance to park a fleet of buses. Town had 28 shots without scoring, well some of them could be classed as shots the others were more like pass it carefully to the keeper!
onwards and upwards 🤞

Come on Rog, be a good boy now
!! If the player had just got a "yellow" and later on committed fouls of similar nature, or even, heaven forfend, scored against you, I think you would be attacking the ref for those decisions.
At least t'Alex kept on keeping on 'til they scored two late goals for their deserved draw
{ ?? Don't know where this 5 decision came from ?? I didn't type it + now I cannot delete it

Feeling much relieved after Hull City's 3-0 win against Ipswich last night - especially given their track record away from home. Clear of the relegation zone for now but just let's hope they don't become complacent.

I know and that's why I love reading them.
Another 6 pointer tomorrow I'm not sure my nerves can take many more. One of our best squad players has broken an ankle in training, they must really be competing for starting shirts😱
Good look to the Alec tomorrow

Thanks for the offer Brian but I think that after yesterday I might need a whole lorry load. What a sorry performance in such an important game. Better make that two lorry loads I think I'll have to share it with the players.
Still I suppose we'll have to keep the faith.

Right now I've got the whole parcel still wrapped up, Roger, all ready to post onwards if required
!!Spent two hours chatting to my neighbours over the Grey-bins ( it's their day tomorrow ) so I can confirm that The Mighty Alex really and truly DID WIN with a three goal score last night.
Hope that all you lot out there enjoyed the day as much as I did that chat

No, Its not Crewe today but its the whining about the equaliser last night !
Defender stands on a player's foot in the penalty area & everybody seems to think it's not a penalty !
. I don't care if the attacker was running, falling or lying down picking daisies He was Stood On ! It might have been totally accidental, or it could have been a cynical attempt to gain an advantage for Eng ger land, but it was a FOUL !! RANT OVER Grrrrrr !!
Sorry but I hate it !

3 very big games for City next week. We're off to wonderful Anfield on Wednesday for the Champions' League 1st leg, then we play our friends from The Swamp on Saturday.
2nd leg of the cup tie Tuesday 10th. I'm getting very nervy already......😱

As an ex Everton armchair fan (ever since Bung-me-lots got the job) I was interested to see them get stuffed by City last weekend.
No matter which team you support, you have to take your hat off to Man City and the Italian fella. They have played football which has been of a different class to anyone else. Fully expect them to win the Champions league and to win the Premiership next Saturday, with a 3-0 win over their neighbours. Good luck to City.
Hopefully Accy Stanley can keep their winning run going for another few games and climb into Div One and some much needed cash. They really need an FA Cup tie agianst one of the big Lancashire clubs next season. Fingers crossed

Well we're staring down the barrel now. The euphoria of last May could well be replaced with despair this May.
The one small ray of hope is that at the moment the teams below us keep losing as well. I watched the Arsenal match yesterday against Stoke and the Gunners were truly awful in the first half but came through for us in the end.
Of the last six matches, the final three are Chelsea and Man City away and Arsenal at home last match of the season if we need points from those we're doomed😱😭
We could find ourselves playing those three within 8 days, the Chelsea match has to be rearranged owing to the cup semifinals

Fret not Roger -- I'm positive that while you are down in the deeps you will be still in PREMIER come April, too many clubs below you with nary a chance of seeing the sun rise come May.
UTT !!
P.S. I see one of our 16 year olds has gone to Chelsea for £300,000. He could possibly have been in our first team this time next year, but he's going to struggle to get in C's youth team alas. The extra months in our Academy would have been most beneficial but I can hear the Southern £'s jangling & clinking away.

Well despite the weather the Alex & 'Vale fought out a 2 -- 2 draw at Gresty Road today so only the groundsman is likely to be a shade hacked off this evening
.And what ever happened at Coventry today
only conceded 6 { SIX !! } at home to someone from the country's extremities

I caught the end of a story on the local morning news today. Something about Stanley breaking Football League rules by buying burgers for the players when it isn't in their contracts. A late April Fools joke, surely....🤔

Yes I hope they go up this year too. I've had a soft spot for them since they returned to the League and it was only Lee Brown's last minute goal in the last game of the season for Rovers 2 years ago that denied them then. Sign of a good club that they stood by their manager when things didn't go so well last year. So I'll keep my fingers crossed for them!

Just back from Anfield.
Good Heavens, absolutely outclassed 😱. Can't see us turning that round next Tuesday. But well done, Liverpool, and, wow, what an amazing atmosphere in the ground. Will try to add a couple of photos.

Well haven't been on for ages, in between homes, we left Nottingham last year, been in van ever since, moving to Burton on Trent, in fact very very close to Burton Albion, having an annexe built at my daughter's house.
New owners yet again at Forest, but things have improved on and off the field in last few months, have renewed season tickets even though we have missed a few matches this season, looking at travelling on the train for next season. Not scoring many goals but not letting many in, our defence had more holes than a tea strainer.
sad news about Ray Wilkins, always interesting to listen to RIP

Can't believe what happened at the Etihad yesterday. Such a one-sided first half, City 2-0 up (without Sterling it could've been 6-0). Had to take dog out for her exercise and I come back 5 mins before the end to see 2-3 scoreline!!!
Assume City only came out second half with 5 players??
The mighty Accrington Stanley continue their march into Division One

Not out of the woods yet, but 4-0 against QPR, yesterday, bodes well for Hull City's chances of staying in the Championship.

I don't know what Pep said to the players at half time, but don't say it again Pep 😱.
I've been watching City since my Dad took me to my 1st match when I was a 4 year old. And they always put you through it!
We all thought we were going to win at 2:0 up, but, Oh no.
2nd leg of the Champions' Leauge match on Tuesday night, then Spurs away at the weekend, no easy games....
