Blue is the colour

Football is the game!

Forget Chelsea

EVERTON is our name :0)

Having uplifted themselves with their performance against Man Utd earlier in the week, Northampton went on to emphatically beat Southend United 4-0 at the weekend.

Odds on a new England manager by xmas are crashing.

Sam's been a naughty boy according to the telegraph.

Yes. It does look as though it's going to be, "Bye Bye, Sam."

The chances , that he was just 'bragging' and 'shooting his mouth off' about all the stuff he knows, which is all very fascinating and interesting, are very low, IMHO.

Pity really. I did think he was going to be a very good and very successful England Manager.

He's gone.

Too much greed in British sport.......there are other examples :....some operate in the media today.....isn't it nice to see the sport gospel being preached ?.....whilst....having broken the rules ?....
Anyway...nothing to do do with the above : Have to feel a little sorry for Big Sam......but for the England job : you have to walk a straight line !......

He had to go.

C/D Talking to a West Ham fan the other day he reckons the bigger pitch is the problem.

Here's one for E/L https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qXMaMWOb2sY scored by an ex-Burnley player of course -):

Stan

Yes. Wow! I hadn't seen that.

One of the very best free kicks ever taken, eh?

Stan.

The pitch is bigger but if that's the issue change it to what you want within the laws. Bit lame really. Bottom line is players brought in are not that good.

Cant wait for Saturday. Boro.

E/L, It was a good-en wasn't it, scored a few when he was with us but his legs are no longer up to it at our level now sadly. Think you have got a very good signing there.

A draw please on Sat. to take a point out of the system. just in case we were to slip back down -):

8 more managers to be exposed in the Torygrph before the end of the week apparently.

The eight managers are redknapp at Portsmouth, redknapp at Southampton, redknapp at Spurs, redknapp at West Ham...

The next England manager. :-))

The full list of odds:
Alan Pardew 3/1
Steve Bruce 6/1
Eddie Howe 8/1
Glenn Hoddle 10/1
Gareth Southgate 10/1
Jurgen Klinsmann 14/1
Alan Shearer 20/1
Arsene Wenger 22/1
Slaven Bilic 25/1
Roberto Mancini 25/1
Gary Neville 25/1
Harry Redknapp 25/1
Vincente Del Bosque 25/1
David Moyes 30/1
Claudio Ranieri 30/1

You left out Bournemouth for H.

Cardiff being investigated on a technicality more than anything else over a transfer deal done with West Ham when Allardyce was in charge.

I'm thinking of asking them to investigate the standard of football we have to put up with at Cardiff cos it's shite.

Well spotted C/D.

Might be worth a try Dil.
