  1. He's have undone all that had we not performed a miracle in the play offs though.
  2. That's an awful article, like he's just made it up.
  3. This was as much of a shock as Megson going all those years ago, you like to think that when a termination like this occurs the owner has someone lined up, DC doesn't seem to work that way.
  4. Getting promoted really did save their skin, they'd have been in a proper mess if they hadn't gone up.
  5. All Malc did was Tweeted questions and points raised by fans and was singled out by DC for allegedly spreading "negativity" strange. Anyone heard from Malc lately?
  6. This is exactly it, team like Brighton, Brentford, Plymouth etc are showing the way forward for running a club sustainably and being successful with it (just make sure banning key players from the bookies is part of the strategy though).
  7. This thread is a good read, it's like the decline of the Roman Empire in football terms 😂: https://londonroad.net/Forum/showthread.php?tid=21990&page=16
  8. Have a few in old London town first then head into Wembley to soak up the atmos nearer kick off time, Wembley is p*** poor for getting a beer.
  9. I’ve been fuming since last Friday, thought we’d thrown our chance away big time. When we kicked off I was thinking if we could get a goal in the first 10mins you never know. Smith calmly put the pen away. I then thought if we can get a second before half time and it duly arrived. Must admit I got greedy and wanted a third to make a game of the second half, instead we scored in that half but with plenty of time left to really make the dream come true. As the game wore on I thought it was going to be an admirable effort but we’d just fall short, 6 mins of added time came up, the 6 mins expired, my lad turned to me and said it’s not going to happen, I said there’ll be a little bit longer yet as their players had been going down like flies, up stepped Palmer with the latest of late goals, euphoria. Extra time I wanted us to win it, couldn’t face the thought of pens, a harsh (I thought) free kick but Posh back in front with an OG that would have been so cruel on Gregory, after getting back to 4-4 surely we couldn’t do it again, Pato 5-5, penalties didn’t seem quite as bad now. Full time, nerves shredding but 5 beautifully taken penalties later and one of the best comebacks in football history was done. Incredible.
  10. Saw Roger Waters at the Sportspalei in Antwerp at the weekend, proper arena show and very good, plenty of Floyd stuff in the set. Bootleg Beatles at the Leadmill is next up.
