The non-Watford football thread

[Hornette_TID]

horribly tragic ...the football family does show the strength of the bond at times like this. It's hard to imagine what LCFC are going through...there but for the grace..etc.

Heartfelt condolences to all affected

You'd really expect better from a BBC reporter .

Crass and insentive comments ..

I'm sure this ex beauty queen had excellent secretarial skills. It was however not something to mention at that time or place.

Didn't take long for somebody to sell some footage of the crash to the tabloids.

Sun have masked it as important evidence to the investigators.

Not before plastering the video all over their site and allowing people to comment etc.

Sadly always likely in this era of social media. ​

Well done Marcus Rashford, I bet that wiped the smirk off the face of that little toad Howe

I've just had to explain to my mother why I was so happy that United beat them. It's very hard to discuss Bournemouth without swearing...

 

[superhorns]

Praying can work although I was a little surprised the message got through to Rashford so quickly.

Dreaming of promotion Dave ?!

Bit too early for dreams but it's looking good.

What is it with footballers and bad statues?

Watched Huddersfield v Fulham and it was very poor. Last season Fulham looked as if they would be a real problem for many teams in the PL, but Slav spent a huge amount of money, and the players just don't look as if they know each other. The passing game has gone, and the long hopeful punt up field has become the norm.

 

[Markthehorn]

The fact Fulham have changed goalies 3 times and not kept the same back line for more than 2/3 matches says it all.

Cannot get any consistent form or communication having a situation like that.

Huddersfield and Newcastle at least don't tend to leak goals.

 

[Flittonhorn]

Apparently, over the past five seasons the team who finished fourth from bottom (so stayed up) on average won 0.94 points per game so on that basis theoretically 33 points would keep you up. Seems a pretty low total to me.

 

[Mexican Hornet]

There is some dross down there at the moment. Really we have done well to stay up given. Guess the first two season we should be thankful we managed it.

 

[brian_66_usa]

Taking into account what Mex pointed out then im going for 36 as being safe so lets say mid jan

Anyone watching the USA match? Hope Brian you're watching with a few USA buddies.

Anyway enjoy anyone tuning in.

Have got the BBC updates on at work. However, not sure Gooney should get a cap for it.

I am just glad Rob Green is not in goal.

 

[kchorn]

So far so good. Great goals.

Good, the USA are very, very good at many sports. I really don't want the USA to dominate "soccer," it'd be too much for me to take.

 

[Markthehorn]

Wasn't much of a fanfare when he came on - maybe that is after the match?

USA have had most of the ball since Rooney came on .
