Niels Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 I saw that result too. I saw Andorra play Portugal on Sky last year and they were very aggressive and physical. The Sweden winner in injury time from the half way line was a great goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good penalty save by the English Keeper though, and Venezuela were unlucky in the 1st half to hit the post, great follow up to score the goal off his own shot.

Futtocks Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 Carolyn Radford (Mansfield Town FC) wants your vote to get onto the FA Council.

I just saw the you tube video of them making the finals, it was great to watch. Delighted they made it. It makes it more incredible that they qualified instead of the USA and that Canada didn't even make the play offs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Frightful Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 Has any team been relegated from the top tier all the way to the fourth in successive seasons? I was just wondering.... "When I saw the Pistols and The Clash I realised it didn't seem that difficult, they didn't seem like they could play very well either, so the thing was to form a band then work it out. We didn't even know who was going to play what - we passed around all the instruments until we found what we were comfortable with. I wasn't comfortable with any of them so I became the singer."

JonM Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 This page has plenty of info about series of relegations in English football. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doing_a_Leeds Doesn't like anyone has done it in three successive seasons though.
