Bleep1673 Posted November 7, 2019 Author Share Posted November 7, 2019 Good week for English & Scottish clubs in Europe this week, no-one lost, although Arsenal did try their hardest, and Man City used 3 Goalkeepers. I did spot this article, and we complain when it's chilly...... https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/49760851 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiltshire Rhino Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 With just 2 wins in the FA Cup in the last 7 seasons and having never won away at Cheltenham, here's hoping those 2 negatives can make a positive for my club today.

Wiltshire Rhino Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 The Ginger Pele scores his 15th and 16th goals of the season to send Swindon top. Hoping Town can sort out a deal with Bradford some we can keep him. 2014 Challenged Cup Winner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've checked - because I'm that sad - and if Bromley and Barrow come up then you're fine because you've played and beaten them. Halifax Town you can pretend are the same as the old Halifax Town. But you've never played Solihull Moors and they're third at the minute... 1 Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.

DavidM Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 (edited) Had a quick look at the Euro play off structure . Now my head hurts . Deary me how to make things as unintelligible as possible ... And Scotland already had a play off through beating Albania and Israel in the nations league ( you may have missed those games ) . So I’m thinking what’s the point of playing a year of qualifiers then ? Im sure I’m thick and it’s all been superbly worked out but boy they don’t help themselves in how people perceive it ! And then we get to the laudable initiative of spreading games round in the tournament itself , but my brain cell couldn’t absorb how that works in the same thinking session https://www.skysports.com/football/news/19692/11860009/euro-2020-play-offs-all-you-need-to-know Edited November 19, 2019 by DavidM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HawkMan Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 This appointment says more about Mourinho than Tottenham. His people must have put feelers out about Bayern, Real or other potential giants, and got nothing back. His reputation definitely damaged after United, despite winning two mediocre trophies. So now Tottenham is his best bet. If he waited a month or so I think Emery might be gone, and that would be better for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivans82 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 Crazy decision , come on Arsenal really throw the cat among the pigeons , get rid of Emery now and offer Pochettino the job , you know it makes sense .Apart from anything else the reaction in North London would be priceless. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
