We won our first trophy in years tonight with a 9-1 win over Cheltenham Reserves in the Gloucestershire Challenge Cup.

 

In fairness to Cheltenham we played Weale,Fontaine,Vasko,Noble,Wilson,Murray(hat trick),Carle,Enoch(hat trick) and Trundle(hat trick) while they had trialists and kids.

Wonder goal from Tommy Spurr on sky, but we should have bleeding won, and definitely need a win from the last three. I mean, seven effing draws in a row!

Death to all.

In other news, various sources claim that our takeover will happen next week. Please God, I've not no other positives on the horizon.

Had one of our best performances of the season yesterday and still lost, we're all praying for Watford in the play off semi.

 

Elliott and Orr both made it into the PFA team of the year, think Lita was the last player we had in of these teams.

Result of the year on sat. WBA killing Soton and Stoke killing Leicester aren't as nailed on as they might seem though, so let's not do anything daft against Norwich at home in the last game.

Chris Brunt! Legend. Looked great when he came on, even ignoring the goal his delivery was brilliant, though the rest of WBA were utterly underwhelming.

Best performance of the season today, with Carle,Noble,Mcindoe and Trundle all starting we're back to passing instead of trying to play like Stoke.

 

Glad we got Palace actually, we're much better as underdogs and the 2nd legs at Home which is all you can ask for really.

Four

Fucking

One!!!

 

Elation. Now someone give us some money so we don't go down like a stone next year!

I've known this thread to die post-season the last few years.

 

Anyone else up for bumping this every week?

If only to update you on our takeover situation.

 

 

 

We've not been taken over yet.

[deancoles 0]

We've still got to win the playoffs.

[TheFranchise 0]

That's a tough four team mini cup there deano.

 

Can't really call it myself.

[PLAGIARISM! 0]

Very close. Palace are my tip. I don't mind saying it, Warnock's the manager of the season.

[King Cucaracha 0]

I'm semi-tempted to put a fiver on Watford. Something tells me they might have gotten their bad run out at the right time, be so relieved at still being in the playoffs that they figure 'hey, a reprieve, what have we got to lose?' and end up going up.

Think we showed today we're more than just a hardworking side, don't know why that tactical genius Warnock used long ball tactics against McCombe and Carey with no Scowcroft.

[Anorak 0]

Good loser that Warnock.

[luke-o 0]

Europe! That'll do us.

 

If we can put on as good a show as we did last year in the cup we should be ok.

 

And if we're going by Keegan's view point, we came first in the league

Yes, and how dare you all celebrate your screamer of a winning goal like that. It's just not on.

 

 

 

 

We've still not been taken over.

I was pleased Fulham stayed up, I've always admired Roy Hodgson for managing abroad and learning different styles of football instead of doing the easy thing and staying in England.

 

 

[Guest]

I was pleased because all those Americans won't be playing in the Championship.

[Kurt Angle Mark 0]

I was pleased because all those Americans won't be playing in the Championship.

 

Not only that but Fulham might get a UEFA Cup spot for Fair Play after Man City got a red card in the last game

Incredible achievement by Hodgson, even though I have no real love for Fulham and their minimal fanbase, composed mainly of visiting actors. McBride and Bullard make them a different team, with those two even Sanchez might have stood a chance. If Hodgson can get Steven Davis back next year that'll be a big plus as well.

Amazing Evening, can't believe how much energy our boys showed in extra time, the next 10 days are going to drag.

[PLAGIARISM! 0]

So who are people wanting to sign? All's gone quiet on the takeover front (again) which is obviously the sticking point, but Bolton have just released that Andranik who looked decent to me, I think other clubs will offer him more than we can though. We basically need an entire midfield, then possibly a left back and a striker as well.

[Guest]

We need a second striker, and a winger.

 

Signed a Swiss from Dortmund (means he's probably shit), looking at Marek Hamsik from Napoli and Gareth Barry in particular. I don't think we have very much money, to be honest, so to get players, we're going to have to sell players. Alonso, Riise and Crouch are the guys I'd look to ditch.

 

Would like Dean Ashton...but I don't think that's going to happen. Plus, he's hurt quite a bit, and Rafa doesn't care much for English. Just swap those three I mentioned for some other three and I'll be happy. Oh nearly forgot, gotta sell Carson.

If we win on Saturday Leroy Lita is coming back, he was at the Palace semi and spends most of his time in the nightclubs round here, if anyone one can sort out his attitude it's Gary Johnson.

 

A new defence would be priority next season as well as the only one I can see settling into the Premiership is Liam Fontaine and he's 3rd choice CB at the moment.

Well; The Champions League final has played out pretty much how I thought it would, final score 1-1.

 

Let's see if it does go to penalties.

[TheFranchise 0]

Heh, good old Drogba.

 

If that's the last time we see him in a Chelsea shirt then it's a fitting end.

[Brett Favre 0]

That shit was intense. I feel bad for Terry, but I was rooting for Manchester United.
