Just reading that James Trafford is being re-signed by Man City from Burnley. This paragraph caught my attention. Must have been our only point of note last season. We still lost though. He also set a new Championship record of 12 consecutive shutouts between December and February before he was finally beaten in a 2-1 victory at Cardiff City at the start of March.
Okay you miserable gits. Who else, like me, will admit to watching the England Ladies winning the Euros tonight, for the second time. In my mind a great achievement. Not the best footballers but the best team!!!
This miserable git didn’t. Because we’ll never hear the end of it. Did you know they’re calling for a bank holiday because they won. Oh and they’ll all probably be made dames in the honours list. Now if that was Wales or Ireland…
Jealous or what? They asked for a public holiday but got turned down. Pubs in England allowed to stay open to 1.00pm tonight. Cue riots everywhere. Don't know about dames? From what I've read some could be made dukes. Batting for the other side if you know what I mean.
I did watch it. Agree it's a heck of an achievement to retain the title but absolutely NOT the best team... Spain were head and shoulders better but lacked a finisher. England have done what we used to do under Buluts so often, hang on in there and somehow grind out a win. I actually said to Mrs Brizzle during the Sweden game (when they were 2-0 down and she'd written them off) that I could see them turning that game around and then going on to win it (ie the tournament)... They just had the grit, never say die attitude and the bit of good fortune you need.
As I said, not the best footballers but the best team. Your last sentence sums it up well BB. Bit more like a Warnock side than a Bulut one.
