npower Football League 2011/2012

Off topic, but Radford; is your store doing that Disney thing at the minute?

I'm sick to death of hearing those fucking Disney songs at work!

I thought Christmas was bad!

Also, does anyone know what weekend the football league kicks off next season?

Isn't it usually second week in August? The 9th rings a bell for this season so I think it'll be similar next year.

Pretty sure its the 18th August because of the euro's and olympics.

That's half good and half bad then

If its the 18th I shouldn't miss any games. If its the 9th ill miss the opening game probably.

Was hoping for it to start on the 4th though, as it's my 18th on the 3rd

Matt Ritchie has won the League 2 player of the year award.

Other nominations were Marlon Pack and Tyronne Barnett

Grats to Rickie Lambert on becoming Championship POTY.

How the fuck did Doyle Middleton not win League One Apprentice of the Year?

The other two hadn't played first team football unlike him and the winner of it from Charlton is on bail on suspicion of raping a 12 year old girl

Yes, the songs are already driving me nuts. Yet they still play the hot hot hot song and "hello" song, fucking hate them so bad now

Going to go listen to them within an hour

I'll be missing games til the 26th

I hope we have a pre season tour somewhere good, I might go for a bit with my mates if it's somewhere better than Scotland.

I bet it'll be Norway. Went to one with my dad years ago which was great fun.

Is this just as backup or do you think he'll replace Lonergan?

"I believe we have a superb opportunity to rebuild this great Club. Clearly, this will require resources, planning, hard work and patience. We will assemble a strong management team at every level of the Club. We will act rapidly, but also plan for the long term, because I am here for the long term."
"I also look forward to the Club re-engaging with the fans and the local community. We cannot succeed without their backing."
"We should not expect instant success, but our fans, employees and other stakeholders can expect 100 per cent commitment from me and my team."

I've heard that it's just a youth loan or something. People on WACCOE said that something similar happened last season. I think that Cairns will be back up but not on the bench as Warnock doesn't have keepers on the bench.

Di Canio's view on Cheltenham:

“The difference between us and the others is that we have quality throughout our squad. It is important for me to have all around the field at least seven or eight players who can play football,” added Di Canio.

“You look at the other teams, how many have they got? Cheltenham have Marlon Pack but otherwise it is just ‘boom, boom, boom’ long ball football."

Sounds to me that he could be interested in Pack, and with him and Ritchie being good friends I wouldn't rule it out. Disagree about the "long ball football" statement seeing as we had 60% of the possesion though. We certainly aren't a long ball side.

Just ignore Di Canio, he's a self centered prick. Rich coming from a fan of a club managed by Steve Evans, but Di Canio is just as arragont if not more so than Evans.

I predict Cheltenham 5-0 Gillingham. Maybe a couple more.

Glad you've got Joe Martin, Charlie Lee, Lewis Montrose and Danny Spiller out through suspension. Doesn't surprise me however from what I saw on the opening day . We won't win 5-0 as we pass the ball too much and don't shoot often enough. This has backfired us sometimes and we have had a couple of 1-0 home defeats against teams who nick a goal and then park the bus.

Our club spokesman really upset Pompey last night.

If Portsmouth are 13 or more points adrift in the drop zone when they visit St. Mary's, a defeat will relegate them #saintsfc #pompey

Oh my god. Please let this be the case!

I know that you might like the idea at first, but if Pompey were to go down the plug, you'd miss them a shit load. Whether you like it or not.

I want them to survive, however, beating them and therefore confirming their relegation would be superb!

You need to make Tandari Lee a Wiki page btw.

He never had one the other day when I checked.

Or am I just blind?

Blind.

It's been there since before we signed him.

Oh and btw, It's true that goals scored tells you fuck all about a striker because Lee has been fucking immense for you like creativity wise etc, too busy creating rather than actually scoring them. Lamberts a lucky boy.

It doesn't come up if you google it.

That's why.

It's the first result.

Jordi wrote:It's the first result.

It's because I keep thinking that his name is 'Tandari'.

Oh Jela, deserve a triple face-palm for this latest fuck up.
