One for the old'uns amongst us. L*t*n lost 1-0 tonight at Mansfield and their scorer? None other than a certain Bingham. Splendid...... For those not in the know, Billy Bingham holds the same place in L*t*n fans' estimation as Cliff Holton does in ours.
Substitutes at Brum tonigt 10 Thomas 12 Novak 15 Kiernan 17 Reilly 19 Zigic 21 Doyle 40 Dyer hahaahahah guess he is used to splinters!
Nice to see 2 Watford old boys livening up press conferences today. "Sean - another question about Danny Ings" Dyche "zzzzzzzz" "Tim - what did you and Randi Lerner talk about in your meeting?" Sherwood "he picked the team for me" Top class
Parma have been dissolved after confirming to Serie A that they will not be able to fulfil their duties this season, according to reports. The club have been in financial trouble for a number of years, but it recently became clear that the problems had reached a new level, with players confirming that the squad had not been paid their wages this season. It was revealed that they had been forced to call off Sunday's meeting with Udinese as the club were unable to pay for stewarding costs, and league rules mean that they would be automatically relegated from the top flight of Italian football if it is confirmed that they cannot cover costs for the rest of the season. All of their remaining matches would count as 3-0 wins to the opposition, and it remains unclear whether the club will be saved by new investors in the future after ownership changed hands twice in the previous two months.
If you look at the match stats, there were two red cards, one from each side, but much too far apart to have been for the same incident!
Big Sam at West Ham has just said his side are "too honest" which sums up the mind set of a professional in a game. They just hope the ref is on their side each game.
So it now appears that the 2022 World Cup will be taking place in November and December 2022 with the final being held 3 days before Christmas. Presumably they couldn't have held it earlier in the year (say February / March) as it would have clashed with the 2022 Winter Olympics being held in Dubai
Apparently even the FL would get affected and "cancelled"! Going to cause madness for a season or two.
What on earth is going on here now. http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/31611980 Selling on to Red Bull who did show interest a couple of months ago? Knows that he could finish up in jail in Italy so would be barred for ever? Just trying to win one over the FL? No one seems to know, but he certainly divides opinion.
