I remember beating Shrewsbury 3 nil with a Downes wonder goal.....
I also remember a referee dissallowing a valid goal vs Wycombe.
Which game is shaping our season more? |

What are we? Whats our best formation? Do we put balls in the box from the wings or try to penetrate them with incisive passing? Do we suck up their pressure for the first 30 minutes then rally and counter attack them? And where is Freddie, is he ready? |

Comment | Does the NFL Point to Football’s Future?
at 16:04:53
The NFL is 32 teams. The AFL is 20 teams, lived there 3 years, (Carlton Blues fan). The football league is 72 teams, with the Premier League that chose to break away being 22. Thats an important point, its a different entity with satellite rights and a global brand. Its created the money revenue for itself. Any team in England can rise from nothing to be on the fringes of the top global league, such as AFC Wimbledon and Bournemouth. But they must do this from the old model of fan attendences, cup runs and player sales with mininal tv revenue. Yes its unfair but promotion/relegation is open to all sides through all leagues not closed off like NFL/AFL. And you are right the franchise model is new world nonsense. Ive followed the AFL, there are teams such as Hawthron and Geelong that has mastered the system to stay at the top, its not quite equal.
So, its simply a fractional payment towards young players acadamies across the leagues from top league revenue to encourage home grown players that might get favour. But much else ia unlikely due to the fact the Premier League runs its own shop after breakong away and teams have to get wise to not over stretching and teams like Leicester that abuse the finances should certainly be punished and forced to sell 1/2 players when found guilty.
Good article. |

Comment | Bialkowski on Hurst: From the Beginning There Was No Communication
at 16:04:28
Unproven league 2 manager turns out to be under-qualified lemon with a penchant for ditching highly skilled veteran players. It was the Cowley brothers I said we needed it now we’re playing them because they didn’t want to come. Never mind the club needed to go back to basics after McCarthy and we are there. Just 2 good signings away from being decent. |

Sir Alex Fergeson was quoted as saying that the atmosphere was certainly one of the most electric he'd felt ever. Quite some remark coming from him. |
