There ARE other teams(we'd have no-one to play otherwise) and here's where all-comers can discuss the wider world of football......

Only half-watching the Galas, 4-0 down to Real M, then it's gone a bit mad. 1-4,2-4,3-4, ...
4,4 then ref blows offside. He must be on the Real team sheet the number of daft decisions. Real player blatantly handles the ball, ref gives Real a free-kick. Ten minutes left...

All over, Ronaldo after Arbeloa got a red. Cracking second half. Galas all over them.

Missed the ending but just seen Elmander came on for last 10 minutes for Galatasaray.

Meanwhile, Holden not even on the bench for Wednesday... hopefully he has a decent pre-season.
The players you fail to sign never lose you any money.

It's because he played on Saturday. He didn't play last Tuesday for the same reason

I guess they are contracted not to overuse him. So far he's played an hour, twice.

He really must be still struggling for actual match-fitness. Far from surprising, but shows how far he had to go. Yep, pre-season is vital for him .... & someone somewhere suggested a summer loan to the MSL which may not be a bad shout.
Not advocating mass-murder as an entirely positive experience, of course, but it had its moments.

For the games he hasn't played he has not even been on the subs bench, so I wouldn't be surprised if there are conditions to how much he can be played.

He said in that interview posted in the trotters forum that he's physically back to fitness, but that in terms of work on the field he's nowhere near (or words to that affect). Like being pressured on't ball, tackling, getting knocked about, that kinda stuff.

Hopefully all goes well and he'll get a proper pre-season under him.

Spuds equalised :( still, hopefully extra time now knacker them and they will lose anyway, though maybe if they go through to the next round they might be slightly distracted in the league? Anyway, hoping and praying there will be a st totteringhams day this year after all...
