red devil Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Even before this he was probably the nicest man in football. I'd quite like to see some of the money currently sloshing around the PL filtering down more to the lower leagues and grassroots football in general. Perhaps a similar levy on TV deals, transfers etc...

Alan Medic Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Not saying it might happen again but didn't Celtic blow a big lead somewhere under Strachan a few years ago? Just a vague recollection.

Mick Mac Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Other way round I think AM. They lost 5-0 in the first leg away from home (Artmedia Brataslava I think), and then failed to claw that back in the home leg. It was Strachan's first month or so in charge, so as Rogers' second season there is "no" chance of that happening now. We are a well oiled machine. Interestingly, Strachan's second season he got through the groups and into the last 16, losing to AC Milan by a single goal, Milan then lost to Liverpool in "that" final.

Parkdrive Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Mike Dean once again demonstrating, as if proof was needed, that the officiating in the prem thus far has been shocking. And the prem according to pundits is the best product in the world? Sort the refs out and maybe.

red devil Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 The Gospel according to David Moyes, aka ''It had nothing to do with me Guv''...I think Harry Redknapp got it right when he said Antonio Conte couldn?t have kept up Sunderland last season.Look at Manchester United. It?s taken them a few hundred million to get them in a good order.At Real Sociedad, we kept them up, we did the job we had to do there.The only one that looks a little bit out of sync is Sunderland. And it was probably the hardest to take. I think my record of losing two games in a row was minimal.

Mick Mac Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Well - I seemed to quite enjoy the match despite the result. Bit frustrating until 2-0 at which point there was already no way back, so just had to admire a very good team and some very good players.
