Dark Munster

😕 So over the last 40 odd years the Germans are really lucky then, and England really unlucky? I need to ask my German friends to buy me a lottery ticket.

Actually Salisu can also hit some great long passes too. To have both Lyanco and him both doing it is a mouth watering prospect.

... then he's an idiot, just like the previous generation of England managers. I presume/hope he had the squad practicing them for days in advance, and had the line up more or less pre-determined by the final whistle. Southgate, for all his faults, treats penalty shootouts professionally, and not as a lottery with "who fancies taking one?" (yeah I know, Rashford and Sancho, but I'm sure he's learnt from that mistake).

And Pearson (who had a done a decent job keeping us up) was a Wilde appointment, which was why the ruddy-cheeked bastard couldn't wait to get rid of him and replace him with those two clowns.

Yes. Gulp.

Certainly an attacking line up, but the midfield looks rather weak defensively.

Even worse is Haaland choosing Norway over England. 🙁

I think we all are bewildered. I wonder why he picks him......

Who says Burnley matches are boring? It’s been a cracking match so far.

A nice tweet indeed, but I think the £8 million makes him feel even better! In fairness, Bruce does seem a decent person, I remember him being very gracious in defeat against us (when he was with Hull).

Instigating a plethora of corny jokes?

Cheers, forgot about that.

Some of his long passing was Vestergaard-esque. But fortunately, not his defending.

You were expecting 28 points from our first 8 matches? I admire your optimism.

I thought is was 6 points better off, but maybe I'm miscounting. Didn't we lose all the corresponding fixtures last season, except Chelsea away where we got a draw?

Maybe he's predicting a future pandemic where the virus only affects males, 90% of whom are wiped out?

Hopefully Theo is wide enough to be sitting in the stands.

The club have recently being doing ok in the transfer market, but the Walcott and Long contracts are back to the Dr. Bunsen and Wee Ross level idiocies. I wonder how much input Ralph had with these teacher pet signings?

Are you sure they'd choose us over Everton?

Well both are in the team. So it will be an interesting battle between them for being the most crap.

https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/58731216 "Only seven clubs' squads are more than 50% fully vaccinated, so we have a way to go..." Unfuckingbelievable.

At least he got close to him. Jack Stephens was miles away, just ball watching.

What an exciting/nervous finish. Lancs lose 4th just before tea. They need 78, Hants need the 6 wickets. About 50-50 at this stage? At least now the Warks match is irrelevant and Hants can’t lose the title by half a point.
