    Yet another Chinese takeaway and unfortunately, Delia and co would rather we be a 'yoyo club's at best and are determined not to sell.

    God this is going to sound really sexist but I just can't watch women's football. It's a bit like women's tennis, all puff and no blow .....

    4 - For the first time ever, Man Utd have lost four successive European away games in a row. Unaccustomed.

    Anyone else besides me going to cry into their pillow tonight? :emoticon-0112-wonde :smiley-finger007:

    QPR director of football Les Ferdinand has rejected talk that manager
    Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink might be replaced by Tony Pulis.

    Best thing QPR have said (or done) in decades <laugh>

    5-0 win, good game.
    Difference between the men's game.
    1) No diving.
    2) Capable of winning the ball in midfield and immediately going forward.
    3) Not afraid to shoot on sight.
    4) Not trying to gain a 10cm advantage by putting the ball outside the quadrant at corners. "Cheating"!
    5) Excellent passing, very few went astray.
    6) Lots of Hooters! :1980_boogie_down:
    7) No historic's when decisions went against them.
    8) Lots of Hooters. :emoticon-0140-rofl:
    9) None of them seemed to tire towards the end of the game.
    10) Lots of Hooters. :emoticon-0115-inlov

    Ironic that Southampton and Leicester breeze through their European games, lowly Dundalk get an away draw (bless them) - just those clubs with delusions of being "big", ManUre and Tottingham who crash and burn at the first hurdle <laugh>

    Bless 'em indeed. That's a nice story. They got paid more for that draw than for winning the Irish Premier League last year.

    What a different world! Just shows you can compete if you have the right spirit.

    But apparently, as they've never featured for the national under 21s team, that doesn't make them English, either :emoticon-0112-wonde

    Well no, of course if they were Smith's instead of Murphy's that would make all the difference. Although John would be better than Jacob or Josh.

    "While the 21 year old brothers have been capped a number of times for England at multiple youth level sides, they are yet to make an appearance for Gareth Southgate in the Under 21’s team, which leaves the door open for a switch."
