My guess is that they want an excuse to cancel the victory day parade for some reason.

It’s still been a really good season for Hamworthy, obviously they’ll be gutted, but they got within a match of making it back to back promotions. They’ve certainly done better than they’d have expected at the start of the season.

2-0 FT Sholing promoted! They’ve done well to come back and win the playoffs after leading the league for so long and falling just short in the end. Certainly gives me a team to use for the Dafuge challenge in Football Manager next season.

Impressive crowd there by the sound of it, over 1200. And 1-0 to Sholing!

https://radiosportslive.co.uk/hamworthy-feed/ Hamworthy have commentary from the playoff final. Team sheets here to know who they’re talking about.

Everton have been a basket case circling the drain ever since Usmanov got sanctioned and took all the real money behind Everton with him. They’re more likely to replace ‘Doing a Pompey’ as a phrase than be a threat in the Championship.

Extremely unlikely but not impossible. People often make the same mistake with chance that if something likely happens, it was always certain to happen. Knowing something unlikely can still happen doesn’t mean thinking it’s likely to happen, or that you’re not prepared for it not happening.

Damn. Just for a while there, despite everything, we were three points off safety with a better goal difference. As much as it’s probably still too big a gap for this team to make up now, and it’s extremely long odds, we’re still not far off.

Can’t say I was complaining too much about what Liebherr and Rickie Lambert did for us at the time.

Scenes at Wrexham’s ground. Greatest non-league season in history? Notts County would have won the league with their current points in any season in history… except this one. Seems crazy that they might still not go up, but picking themselves back up for the playoffs won’t be easy.

(Escape from) Alcaraz?

Well, we’ve seen a win over Bournemouth kick start a successful great escape before. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/43846989

Not the ideal set of results today, but I’d have taken being the same distance from safety if you’d have offered it before this weekend’s fixtures.

We’re four points from safety and capable of taking points off of the top teams in the country. We usually turn Bournemouth over regardless of form. Certainly not time to be throwing in the towel just yet.

We’re bottom and we just got something off the team that’s top.

Hell of a point. Might just give us something to fight with.

We’ve survived from worse positions than this

Holy ****!!!!

Alcaraz off!? Unless that’s actually an injury as well as changing the shape, just seems odd.

Well, we’re in the game. Ref is a ****.

So close to 3-1...

Ok. What?

First half we played well and it felt like we’d get something out of the game, then we concede a scrappy goal almost out of nowhere and completely fall apart.

Meanwhile, England’s unbeaten run under Weigman ended at 30 games by Australia. Incredible achievement, and better now than in the World Cup, but a well below par performance tonight and no doubt England will have to figure out a way to counter those sort of tactics in the World Cup this summer.
