SDFPL challenge cup 3rd round. Byron House vs. Brunsmeer Athletic. 10:30am at tapton school.

They’re 2 leagues above us. Huge #cupset potential

My first reaction to seeing the following was to laugh out loud, then to feel bad for @Tuna & @NeilYoung, then to laugh out loud again

  1. Inherit unlimited blood and oil billions
  2. Build team around Jonjo Shelvey
  3. Have faith in Joelinton
  4. Profit?

I wanted to go to Newcastle v Brentford but there seem to be engineering works on the trains this weekend, cba driving and not going to fly so didn’t really work out :frowning:

ooft yeah thats a big ol’ away day/weekend journey.

Lot of potential stinkers turned into actual chinstrokers thanks to a bunch of doldrum clubs booting their managers. Reckon if you’re on last or second last on MOTD for three weeks in a row you should automatically have to sack the man in charge.

= Ole job for life?

Some prick’s given our best player the plague so we’re certain to lose this weekend btw.

See now you’re getting it.

Ooh enjoy, not even going to be able to stream it which is a bit annoying

no chance that shelvey works hard enough for howe, he’ll be a permanent bench fixture before christmas.

btw since you @ed me I think that means you have to make the new football thread

oh this IS the new football thread. ha, what a fool
