Blimey that's real dedication for you. Tuning into watch Falque this evening. <ok>.

I'm watching a couple of Spurs old boys (Joe Martin and Charlie Lee) playing against a current one (jordan Archer).

Haha. I went on to Betfair and saw they were playing so decided to tune in for a bit.

Don't think I'll be buying an Almeria season ticket anytime soon. I seem to remember they're high up the league too so I dread to think what the rest of that league's like. Same old Spanish football with fouls getting given for everything and the football as I say was poor, not that Falque looked out of place there. The only bit of excitement came right at the end when Almeria, 2-1 down, had a freekick which the keeper dropped at the feet of his own number 9(who looked awful but still had a goal to his name) who shinned it to an Almeria player on the edge of the area but the lob was saved by the keeper scrambling back to his line. Seriously that was the only highlight, even the goal I saw was crap.

<laugh> Archer gets booked for timewasting and attacked by a Gillingham fan in the space of a minute.

I think that it's fair to say that Archer wasn't too impressed:

I like the way the steward that gets there first attempts to reenact the incident with the young lad as the 'keeper :D


Did Archer get booked for booting the ball away after or was that a seperate incident?

No he wasn't booked for that, probably should have been but I think the ref sympathised with his frustration and he was already on a yellow for the timewasting.
 
Love the pen misses, here's a couple of my favourites!

I can't believe they got a gate of over 31000 for a Johnsons Paint Trophy game, but they did and fair play to them.
 
We've announced our three changes for the Europa League squad.
Out go Cudicini, Falque and Jenas and in come Bentaleb, Ceballos and Holtby. Didn't realise that the latter was actually eligible.

He couldn't have played in the Champions League again I believe but can be registered for the knockouts of the Europa League. Interesting to see two youngsters added, I'm not sure whether they even would have needed to be registered in the 25 due to their age. Perhaps this is in part a nudge to Bentley to find himself a loan move somewhere if we'd rather register players that didn't need to be.
 
He was in the side when the goons played schalke, they were in the same group.

Why did the ref give the penalty taker a booking for slipping on that craphole of a pitch?The ultimate insult!
