The Lower League Thread

Why? The only people who would suffer then would be the fans.

You should be hoping for something that would harm Venky's, not the fans.

I hope the FA and the Football League actually do something to get rid of these parasitic owners and keep them out in the future.

Fit and proper my arse.

Their 'fit and proper persons' test is just a front, a stupid waste of time to make it seem like they're doing something. It has to be. I mean look at Portsmouth, how many dodgy owners have they had that have all passed the fit and proper persons test?

Wasn't the fit and proper persons test added/strictened in response to the Pompey mess not before it?

11 Premier League titles, 2 SPL titles, a Bundesliga title, 6 FA Cups, 4 European Cups and a JPT final appearance where I got tonked 4-1 by Nottingham Forest. And I have a few days to spare, not starting my new job for 11 days, so more than enough time to do the Blackburn job.

To be fair, these achievements on FM mean you're better qualified for the job than our last three permanent managers. Are you bald by any chance? (Highly important)

Fine assist on Hull's goal (and only chance of the fucking game) from Darren Deadman, who had a complete shocker. We weren't going to score in a month of Sundays, but dear God what do we have to do to get a competent official that doesn't give them a goal start? Danns gets fouled, they break away and score. We weren't great but we were better than them and deserved much better than to get rodgered by yet another dick of a ref.

Not sure how Hull even had double figures on the pitch at the end, never mind all 11. Some of their 'tackling' was downright dangerous. No.23 should have walked for a professional foul that wasn't even given as a free kick, no.8 should have walked for just kicking Beckford after a throw-in, 31 should have gone for constant dissent after being booked, Bruce should have gone for being Alex Fucking Bruce... We lost our discipline in the end purely because we didn't get any protection or fair treatment from the Peterborough-based official.

This pretty much fucked your entire argumentation up.

Wasn't meant to be an argument. Was meant to just be a change from 'the ref', 'Deadman', 'dickhead', etc.

Would be nice to have a break. We haven't got a thing this season. But it's written in the stars that we'll go down. Absolutely proven by the Sheffield Wednesday fiasco earlier in the season - we should have faced 10 men for 70 minutes but the ref booked the same player twice and didn't send him off. That point will keep Sheffield Wednesday up at our expense. It's got them above us now. We're owed some luck. It has to start tomorrow night, but Bolton used up their bad luck in having two sent off on Saturday - so that bodes well.
