In a pulsating display tonight little old Burnley knock Pre-Madonna Sunderland out of the U 21 Cup with another last minute winner!

Oh ffs .. I thought this was a proper football thread not Mickey Mouse sh*te Stan :)

Any Arsenal players get seriously injured tonight ? Already tipped CCFC to beat Man City at 8's , lay Man U v CCFC ( was 1.67 at the time) but this week stick your mortgage on Arsenal to murder us at 1.66 !

Giggs got booooo'd on Sunday when he came on , done bugger all for his hometown Cardiff and turned up for Wales when he felt like. My best guess is Ramsey will get applauded wen the teams are announced before the game ... cos he's a real Cardiff boy and turns up for Wales games !

Hasn't shagged his sister in law either as far as I know :-)

Poyet still waiting for a Riley apology

Six arrests in football match-fixing investigation

Six men have been arrested by officers from the National Crime Agency investigating alleged match-fixing in English football.

At least three footballers are reported to be among those held across the country, but the BBC understands that none is linked to professional clubs.

The NCA said the focus of the operation was a suspected international illegal betting syndicate.

It is thought the suspects are being held by police in the Midlands.

Fine them very heavily and then ban them from "All football" for life, just like they did in the 60's with Lane, Swan and Kay.

But back to the U21's, our next apponents are Notlob http://www.bwfc.co.uk/news/article/u21s-cup-opponents-confirmed-271113-1200222.aspx

From what I have read today, the organiser of the football fixing was talking about the number of goal that he would ask for, at least that lets my team off the hook, thay cant score goals and this season record proves it.

Who's that then Stable?

Stan, I believe it is better to suffer alone. We did have players involved in match
f ixing many years ago and I still remember the shame of it.
Now we are not good enough to fix the light bulb but we all live in hope.

Must be Sheff Wed. then -):

Bronco Lane CF. Peter(?) Swan CH. and Tony Kay WH, though wasn't Kay's misdemeanor committed at Everton? Might be wrong I can't remember.

Tony Kay, Everton, shame he was a great player but obviously a pillock.

edit - Kay guilty drugs not match fixing.

Drugs? I remember him getting the ban but didn't realise it was for drugs CC.

Due to the fact that many matches rarely stuck to exactly ninety minutes long, allowing time for injuries, errors and substitutions. The minutes here given can only ever be a guideline and cannot therefore be accurate, only an approximation.
