Same set up as last week, which  seemed to alternate between 3-4-2-1 and 4-2-3-1, depending on how far forward James and Pato were playing?

Channel flicking disinterestedly, and watching some of Perth Glory v Central Coast Mariners.  The Perth central defence pairing is Mark Beevers and Daryl Lachman.

It will be interesting to see what impact Electric Vehicle tech has on that part of the world.  If the oil price plummets in five years or so, Saudi may not be a model of political stability by 2034.  Of course money grabbing whores like FIFA tend not to think that far ahead.

Yep.  That fight, right there, is why a cruiserweight holds three of the heavyweight title belts.  Fury is the best of the really big guys, and he comes and goes in terms of dedication and focus.  

We just can’t catch a break at the moment.

Yes decent so far.  The real George Byers is back, which is good news.  Musaba getting joy down the right, but his decision making when he gets in good positions is very JJ.

We’re just permanently on the naughty step these days.

Big mistake taking Musaba off.

Really?  Röhl is supposed to know for sure, after being here a week, that Wilks, with 50+ Championship appearances before he signed for us, was going to be THAT shit?

Goals is the problem.  We need to find a few from somewhere or we’ll be dead and buried by the time the January transfer window opens.  

“non Wednesday football” it says.  Not non Wednesday egg chasing.  🙄

To be fair South Africans are bloody annoying so I hope we twat em.  In a sport I really don’t understand the rules of.  Sometimes kicking it into touch on the full is good…sometimes it’s bad.  

This

The season that keeps on giving…giving kicks in the balls. 😡

Refs changing their decisions…they never seem to do it in our favour. 🙄. Watford‘s subs have livened them up.

RIP

Decent enough first 45 minutes of the Danny Röhl era.  As solid as we were two weeks ago with a little more creativity.  Goals needed, fuck 1 point.

Sounds like an interesting position.  What’s the pay like and who do I email my cv to?

Got to say, Chris Powell is a very, very good assistant manager for a team bottom of the Championship.  I wouldn’t have been that disappointed if he’d got the main job.

Manchester Arena sold out for this shit as well.  It’s an eye opener as to how many complete knobheads there are in the world these days.

Not real boxing, but I’m in a boozer where the Tommy Fury card is being shown.  What a truly revolting little shitbag Dillon Danis is.  

Our fanbase will be 100% behind Rohl until someone misplaces a pass against Toytown…then the usual trying to prove you’re a bit more knowledgeable than everyone else bullshit will start.

Still on paper this England team should still easily dispatch this opposition.  It’s a perfect illustration of the old adage that football isn’t played on paper.  You need to function as a unit, however technically and/or athletically inferior the opposition may be man for man.

Poor this so far.  An Aussie team who’s best players are about Championship standard holding their own.

I reckon you said that about Xisco 🤸‍♂️

Tbf I think I probably did.  🤨

Basically it’s another intelligent gamble.  If Chansiri makes enough intelligent gambles maybe one will come off.  
 

Abso-fucking-lutely delighted it’s not Colin.

The only way this club can move forward is if a Saudi investment like Newcastle came in & took over, the training facilities are years behind, the stadium is in dire need of an upgrade & don't get me started on the playing squad, we're in a massive mess at the moment.

Wednesday will probably get bought by a Saudi in about 2029.  The next day there will be a huge breakthrough in battery technology which makes electric cars way cheaper and cleaner than petrol/diesel models.

Interesting result in a friendly that’s just finished.  Georgia beat Thailand 8-0 in a friendly, their all time biggest victory.  This is five weeks after they had their all time biggest defeat, losing 7-1 at home to Spain in a Euro qualifier.  Obviously a big difference in the standard of opposition.  That must be some kind of a record, a team that’s been playing competitive football for a while having their record win and record defeat so close together?
