Midseason 2021/22
A great start to the season with only a blip against Future preventing us from having a perfect start.
... Then Bodden Town came along. Terrible result, made worse by my desire to chase the game instead of cutting my losses.
Then Elit...
At least you lot had the highs of beating the top sides, we've had fuck all to be positive about so far
Y'all are fucked
Ole knows how to set up to defend, it's why he only managed a draw against an Emery team who was similarly cowardly.
Preseason 2021/22
A short update, but a bad one as well:
Well what can I say - being slapped left, right and centre.
A new-ish defensive partnership showed its teething problems, with both Cupids (Alejandro and Theron) clearly needing a lot more time...
Fucking hell
Ahahaha you're still around
In any case he'll definitely win them a trophy while leaving them worse off in the end (Jerome Boateng added to their stable of 30+y/o defs anyone?) but Levy's probably going to use the fact that they're...
@bmg Where you at
End of 2020/2021 Season
Apologies for the absence lads, but I've just played out the season:
We had a fantastic run of wins through February and March, but other than that it has been a frustratingly inconsistent time.
Oh and no draws since De...
Arsenal bosses “100%” behind Unai Emery, deny considering change or talking to candidates, plan to review in summer. Kroenkes + execs offering full support, won’t react to “noise”, feel results will improve atmos & think #AFC on right path. @TheAthlet...
I suppose there was a case made that the club needed fresh blood to start growing our financials.
Too bad for us he was a fucking fraud in his time here - we consistently trailed Utd for instance in commercial deals, we signed players based off his bull...
Wenger, hands down - it's not necessarily a diss on Emery, more of my support for Arsene.
I know VP might probably disagree but I'll take current Wenger back, I've always believed that he was done so dirty by that inept cunt Gazidis, and...
What is the point
Oh and Leicester will absolutely tear us a new one, I have no doubt whatsoever
I ain't betting of chaos (i.e. us)
My understanding was that Son is the designated backup striker? Though obviously you lot were linked with more than a few forwards as well
OLE'S AT THE WHEEL
(inb4 we lose to Villa)
I mean you lot didn't lose anyone and got signings (Ndombele, GLC both good additions) so why not?
Group H is EN FUEGO, as is G
November 2020
I know it's Elite and we were always going to struggle, but it was still incredibly frustrating to watch us go 3 down by the half, which flattered us such was the awfulness of our backline.
Lewis so nearly hauled us back into content...
No longer a NEET baby
(well from Sept 2 onwards anyway)
October 2020
Quick tip guys, don't play attacking football if the team's not familiar with it, even if the opponents are there for the taking.
Dire game from the strikers, and Connolly was the most suspect in the backline with the foul that l...
Preseason 2020/21
It's the preseason we've all come to expect - friendlies with teams we'll be playing in the league, good results but not necessarily good performances.
Been playing almost exclusively a Counterattacking system, which co...
@terriersmad everything I've read about Siewert in his time here points to him being incredibly confrontational I have to say, would be amazed if he lasts the month let alone the season
They were stern indeed...
End of Season 2019/20
CIFA FA Cup
We weren't to have the fairytale run of the President's Cup repeated here, and unfortunately it's probably shown again that Martin Hernandez is levels below Leighton Coleman - both goals were arguably p...
Damn you've got a serious Midas Touch on this, keep it up
You've jinxed it lol
I can't see this being anything other than a wake-up call for them tbh, they've always had the ability but the mentality is lacking
Commiserations mate, but your career moves onwards regardless doesn't it, a new club it is
Can you still spend outrageous sums of money in China?
April 2020
CIFA FA Cup
We started very well, as our strike pair gave us a 2-goal lead in under 2 minutes, but a lack of communication led to Connolly's own goal and a bit of nerves about us.
Barnett added a goal to his earlier assist for a (yet a...
March 2020
President's Cup Final
It was a cautious start from both sides and it was looking like we'd go into the break goalless, but for a run and cross down the left from Barnett, which Thomas unfortunately diverted into his own net.
We ca...
February 2020
It's Cup month apparently, so we'll go through that first:
President's Cup
Bit of an odd game - scored with our first attack, sat back as their midfield 5 dominated ours but failed to break through, then blew our chance t...
Oooh nice work getting promoted with only half a season to work with! Though if that Tuasamu bloke is indeed your best then you'll definitely need some serious reinforcement to stay up imo
Yeah that's flames
Wouldn't mind copping one of those sash kits though tbfh
January 2020
OOOHH, a fantastic victory over a surprisingly under-par Elite.
Ian Barnett was on absolute fire, delivering the corner for Robinson-Rivers' opening goal, before getting his own to seal the game.
Easily the deadest game in the save...
December 2019
I'm just sick of having Andre Wilson at the club to be honest.
Plays poorly the whole match, get a lucky penalty, scores, and we find ourselves back into the game.
Continue to play poorly, gets another penalty and a chance to be a he...
November 2019
A tight game - Scholars had their 3 central strikers which we handled sufficiently well, and Abijah Lewis came through again for us.
Such a desperately disappointing result, losing the early lead and conceding at the end of both halves...
Ashley just wants a yes-man doesn't he, he'll even let them spend upwards of 80mil if they behave well enough.
October 2019
Being frustrated against Bodden Town could become a biannual affair by the looks of it.
They set out with a 4-5-1 with a flat 5 again, which is far too negative for a side of their supposed ability.
As with our previous encounter it helped...
Please... You know you'll be challenging
Preseason 2019/20
It was a terrible, no good, very bad start to preseason - ominous signs were had at the opener against the youth side, where the first team looked disjointed and disinterested; not good.
Those fears were realised against our league op...
Rapids eh? Do me a favour and have a wee on Stan Kroenke's mausoleum, cheers
All jokes aside looks like you're doing pretty well for yourself so far
End of Season 2 (2018/19)
I was surprised when the bookies had us as favourites - turns out they must've known something about us that I certainly didn't, because that was the best first half we've played all season.
We took it way easie...
This season's pricing is way out of wack imo, nigh on impossible to build anything resembling a balanced team.
AHAHAHAHA that's some good karma shit right there
But man... At least you're only 5 points from mid-table? Every cloud etc. I guess.
April 2019
Right, let's get the Cup loss out of the way:
We didn't play too badly, they were pretty lacklustre and complacent, so the logical conclusion would only be a 2-0 loss.
Back to the league:
Imagine how much better we'd be i...
March 2019
We didn't really play well in the first half, but we did go in level at the break so maybe we'd nip a goal and the win.
No, of course not, not with our defence.
We started with playing on the break, which paid dividends when Jes...
Nenad Milijas, now that's a throwback.
How many games do you play in Georgia? 27 or 36? If it's the latter I could be reasonably confident of you staying up.
Ok that's a good one
As things stand the market isn't that good tbh:
I'll probably go for Montserrat if I were to quit this gig - both Somalia and Eritea's leagues have relegation, and I certainly don't want to parachute...
January 2019
Something new this month, starting with the President's Cup games for the new year:
Abijah Lewis going in hot in this first round, as we surprisingly dominated Future.
And not as welcome a game for Welcome this time round (sorry)....
December 2018
We set out from the start to play on the break, which went great when we conceded a third-minute goal.
Then another simple ball over our defence gave Welcome well, a welcome chance and goal.
Tex Wilson (and then Joshewa McLean) were point...
