Why is it worrying? It's no different from any other season, anyone can beat anyone, isn't that the thing that makes the Championship interesting?
I watched it, but disagree about the quality. Both teams are struggling, Bolton is in the bottom three and Preston has injuries and suspensions and is on a terrible run. Ameobi was well worth watching (as well as a few others who I cannot name). Obviously the game as a whole was not very good.
Arsenal go 1-0 up in the North London derby. Good grief, Mike Dean is a poor referee. He gives a phantom foul on Sanchez and then from the free kick, his assistant fails to spot Mustafe is offside too.
A little nugget of information from today's North London derby courtesy of Beeb text...... Joe Magee Mr_Joe_Magee Six diacritics in today's #NorthLondonDerby starting lineup: 5 acute accents and an umlaut. #bbcfootball 1:38 p.m. - 18 November 2017
No Aldeweireld and Kane half-fit. Was always going to be tough plus Ozil put in his annual performance as well as Sanchez deciding he cares this week.
Watched the first 20 - mildly entertaining hearing the commentator waxing lyrical about how Karl Henry has improved the Trotters and Darren Pratley!
Just been reading about Richarlison the 20 year old Brazilian Watford striker. 3 years ago he didn’t own a pair of boots, supported his mum by selling ice cream and sweets on the street, avoiding taking the drug selling route his mates chose, had experienced having a gun held to his head by drug dealers in a case of mistaken identity, and followed the advice of his coaches in the southern Brazilian town he grew up in, which covered life as well as football. I have no idea whether he is any good, but I hope young English players get to talk to him.
he mentioned Henry wasn't known for his goal scoring and a minute later had a shot that went into Row Z. To be fair he caught another on the half volley which scraped the bar. I went yesterday and was chatting to some Villa fans who were more interested in getting pis*ed than going to the game. I wish I stayed with them after watching that dross from Rangers
Lee Mason misses a stonewall pen and loses control of the game - really needs to think of alternative employment - he really is utterly hopeless as a ref Anyone remember Derry getting sent off at ManU? Guess who?
We will play today. Any match threads or do we post here? I won’t be able to watch the match today, but I hope that the R’s will positively surprise us! COYR’s!!!
Interesting motivational technique at Sevilla. Their coach, Eduardo Berizzo, has been diagnosed with prostate cancer and the players were informed of this at half-time last night, when they were 3-0 down to Liverpool.
