Should make my hoped for pre-season friendly with Glasgow Rangers next summer a bit more spicy...

Interviewer: "What do you put that first half performance down to?" Danilo: "Yeah, it was difficult, especially when they change plans and especially like when you watch them and wanted to follow the plan, what the manager wants as well, we just don't know what to do"

Unless you're double-bluffing of course...

Ah.... The first line of defence for anyone who actually is ITK...

By my reckoning (courtesy of Wikipedia), 17 out of the 36 players listed in the Portugese international squad play in leagues ranked lower than the Championship. You can therefore understand Still's obvious frustration that you've got Roberto Martinez seemingly / effectively attempting to encourage Fernandes to leave the club....

Interesting comment from Still in today's pre-macth press conference: "It's difficult when you've got international managers telling players they need to play in a higher league than the Championship" (paraphrasing)... not sure who he's talking about there?

Television coverage of exam results days.

Good to see that he's found his level 👍🏻

It could be worse... circa 60% of current English professional football teams have never won a major trophy...

Yep, we're streets ahead of them....

Good spot! Forgot he played for them. He came off the bench in the 89th minute in this game. Almost as much impact as when he played for us then...

Ten years ago today....

"I'm disappointed with the goals we conceded. We won't concede goals like that again..." 😂

£100m for the pair and they've got a deal....

Free kick. Lol

The commentator said it was a "fantastic debut"... sounds about right when 3-1 down at home...

Btw, why is there seemingly two segregated / marshalled sections? One in the far left corner and the other behind the goal on the right (just this side of the post)

"No more questions from the defence, your honour"

Yes! Get in! 😁

Astute observations there from that Rangers fan. The only thing he missed is the reason we beat Leeds 3 times, and that was because we were coming off the back of a run of poor results each time, and it was the only time that Martin relaxed / parked his 'Russball' tactics for those games.

In the words of @Matthew Le God... "Protests don't achieve anything"...

Excuse the mental imagery but the missus has just shouted at me asking why I'm laughing out loud in the bath 😂

Not forgetting @notnowcato and @Lighthouse of course...

Yep, I'm praying for a mini comeback... Reduce the score to 3-2 and the derby humiliation will still be on! 😉
