steve1 Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Pleased with 3 points at Leeds. We would have an even more secure third place had Fulham bothered to turn up and give us 3 more. steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sophia NSE Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 Another postponement for Maidstone United leaves them with only 32 league games to play by the end of May, plus at least one FA Trophy game. Should be an interesting remainder of the season should it even be completed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gordon s Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 (edited) The new lockdown will also apply to professional sport, so no more Premier League etc for a few weeks. Least of our worries, I know, but enjoyable watching in an evening....... Edit: Half-time at Southampton and they’ve just said Premier League etc will continue after all. This is the opposite of what Sam Coates said on Sky News earlier. Seems the need to get a story out overwrites checking the facts. Of course Sky News could be right and Sky Sports wrong.........

gordon s Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 What a great first half from the youngsters of Villa, none of whom have played in first team before. The complete joy of the team when they equalised against a Liverpool first team was a joy to behold....... Of course there’s another 45 to go, but anything could happen.....

Gareth Collier Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 I have to chuckle at how someones support for a team can detach them from reason. Not directed at anyone on this forum but I do have a handful of FB friends who support Villa who were ready for all out war at the total injustice of Man City's opening goal mid week and the farcical offside rule that allowed it to stand, something which most would agree. However, move on a few days and the exact same rule allowed Watkins goal to stand which, apparently, is fine......... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose I should let it go really, but talk of Chelsea and money (or their lack of it when dealing with smaller clubs) always reminds me of the move of a young Ethan Ampadu from Exeter City to Chelsea. The Chelsea valuation was probably low because they were still paying off previous managers (or team doctors). The transfer fee went to tribunal, Ampadu went to play for Chelsea, Leipzig and now Sheffiled Utd on loan, oh and 20 appearances for Wales so far. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cary hill Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 (edited) Well I didn't see that coming - Leicester City 3 Liverpool 1 - Leicester playing like drains for 70 minutes and somehow limiting Liverpool to just the one goal and suddenly Leicester switch on and score 3 goals in seven minutes and could have had a 4th in that period. Liverpool seem to have a problem defending after 70 minutes of a game - three goals conceded between the 78th minute and 85th minute today and three goals conceded between the 73rd and 83rd minute last Sunday - 6 goals conceded in 17 minutes of play!!! P.S. we still managed to defend reasonably well with three of our four first pick defenders out injured but all you hear about is Liverpool's defensive problems....zzzzzzzz Edited February 13, 2021 by cary hill sense 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
