    Someone posted this video on another forum I'm a member of. I must say, I would much rather penalty shootouts were like this. Much more exciting and much more skill-based, probably less weighted in favour of the penalty taker too.

    Can’t believe nobody tried a chip shot from 35 yards out, especially as the keepers were rushing off their line.

    I imagine nowadays there would be a lot less misses that in that clip, and yes more chip shots too.

    Who knew?

    Dennis Wise is the CEO of Como 1907, who have had two promotions in four years (they’re now up to Serie B) under his stewardship, with Cesc Fabregas as player-coach!

    Luton seem to have benefited from a new manager bounce, winning 3/4 and now sit 5th, 3 points behind 3rd placed Blackburn but with a game in hand and a better GD.
    I expect we are lining Rob Edwards up as Jones’ replacement.

    I think they’d be happy with a swap

    You need a shot on target for the keeper to do that

    I’d be pissed off at walking football if my keeper did that. What United need is an experienced keeper who is an international. No, a different experienced, international keeper. Stop sniggering Baz.

    Kind of want Everton to win this. The longer Lampard is there, the less likely they are to pull away from us (though all that is moot if Jones stays).

    Everton are not playing like a desperate relegation threatened team. Need a few injuries for them, before our game.

    Looks like Iwobe might be out for a while.

    A good start but one is not a few. Say 5! If they did, Saints would have 6.
