EFL My Concubine - Football League and beyond 2016-17

nothing like a last minute winner

iirc

I have sat through some serious defeats to the fucking Irons - 6-2 away and 1-3 at home comes to mind - so congrats LJ. This has got me thinking of when Burnley used the FM computer/or some kind of idiotic moneyball divination to decide that Brian Laws was a top class manager!

a last minute winner scored by an absolute wasteman while half the team can't look, indeed

my current game has peter crouch the best manager in the world

haha just checked charlie adam is his assistant

this is real madrid ftr

i'm no psychic but i'mma stick my neck out and say if we don't win this one we're fucked

getting unintentional Dennis Cooper's Frisk vibes from this one.

it occurs to me these all look like badges for overpriced microbrews

there might be a place for a completely not arsed about overpriced beer in the new era thread!

Carling, Strongbow and Jaegerbombs in the new era

if you like your jazz and film classy, strikes me you'd want fine beer as well :P

i've got nothing against any beer but drinking the horror away on a budget requires something with a little less attitude

My budget is more supermarket brand plonk and lager, as much as I'd love to be a full on bon viveur. I am too much of a pisshead to go down the pay more for quality and less quantity route. If I cut out the booze for two nights it feels like a week!

lol! thread is turning into AA confessional space! I need to some googling on the Reading manager from the 1930's who was apparently a pisshead + whose insouciant attitude to team affairs was along the lines of *pulls hip flask from pocket and takes swig* "who we playing today then lads?"

all fair, all fair

bet there are some wholesale deals on good stuff. worth investigating at any rate

Hello, I'm a Fulham fan. In the UK at the moment so I'm going to the Blackburn game in midweek.

I've not really followed the Mighty Cottagers (lol) this season, but from what I've seen our gameplan is based largely around giving Sone Aluko a free role to blaze wide from eight yards as often as possible

would settle for having somebody who blazes anywhere tbh

a rare VLP goal that was actually a shot on target, must have been some kind of keeper error! But bless him all the same.

we are literally scrapping it out against a team that are already relegated. be nice to check in on League 1 again.

no, wait, we've got a pen

Costa, already a broken man at 22, misses from the spot to keep his summer transfer hopes alive

Noodle Vague contemplates toddling off to the pub to watch the FA Cup but can't bear the thought of all those African lads sat in the back crying

ohmygod Marshall and Wiemann combine to score a goal, maybe this Lambert fella is onto something nah only joking Lambert Out

m8 you're not losing at home to walsall

no, that's next season

this thread = four yorkshiremen sketch, except our actual yorkshireman is supporting the best team in europe

it's about this time of the season my thoughts turn to enjoying Hull FC blaze up the Superleague, with the added convenience that i can turn back to the new football season just as they choke and blow it

county cricket's available

also true, bit early yet tho

There's a big snooker championship soon I think?

I think Wagner will probably be off to one of the German giants next season, his family have no intention of moving to the UK, and especially Hudds - which escaped any attention from the Luftwaffe but was hit hard by other more dastardly forces in the Thatcher years! I have got to wring every bit of enjoyment possible out of these last home games, because quite possibly they will never be as good again.

I edited Lincoln City off my betting slip in the game they were 11/1 against Burnley. Just because it was an early KO and I can't stand seeing my accs torpedoed down before 3pm.

Oh we just kicked off again

Presentation pitchside to Club Secretary Richard Skirrow. This is Richard's last game after 20 years' loyal service.

@Wolves shame it wasn't Lamberk's

It sounds like in the space of 4 minutes we could have doubled our lead and then got pegged back again. Proper Hackney Marshes level defending from both sides.

I can't deal with the BBC live videprinter these days, it keeps resetting and running through the pre-h/t scores again.

Twitter's my go to in the absence of a stream

Girl with Curious Hair picked a decent introduction day itt. Fulham up 0-3 against Newcastle.

The new editor of our local rag is called Wayne Ankers, maybe a cousin of T Watt?

xp

beautiful

typically Rafa and the team he sent out were just perfect to do a job on us last week. Maybe he should have started with that big lump Murphy today as well.

admittedly i've not watched them loads but they've been shit most times i have, we shd've beaten them home and away, can't see them doing owt in the Prem without a major rehaul, probably starting with a new manager

two for ryan sessegnon, born when 'oops i did it again' was #1

haha actually no it was #2... 'don't call me baby' was top :)

can feel a rough equalizer slouching towards Molineux

c'mon you hoops, last minute winner pls!

90+3 It's almost heartbreak for Wolves. The ball is whipped across the box and falls to Ajayi 2 yards from goal. He skies it over the bar.

i just can't

this is Rotherham

Congrats on a heroic win NV :)

You too Calzino. Shame Leeds didn't lose but it's nice that Hudds is walking away from them.
