LeChuck Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 I found this very interesting... Fulham to be given 'fair play' European place next year. I'm happy for them, they did us a massive favour by beating Birmingham yesterday when they could have easily gone into holiday mode. Why I found it interesting is that we always used to finish bottom of the fair play league under Sparky. That's some turnaround in style, although it's probably forced due to the players he inherited not being of the aggressive type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philipl Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Bubbles bursting at West Ham This is probably horrific news for Sheff U who as well as being relegated themselves see their damages payments from West Ham being interrupted and probably at risk of being lost in an administration.

Why I found it interesting is that we always used to finish bottom of the fair play league under Sparky. That's some turnaround in style, although it's probably forced due to the players he inherited not being of the aggressive type. The league table shows which is our best way forward. Nothing wrong with a few dogs of war in the squad even though our reputation was imo more based in what other managers (mainly foreign) came out with to the press in order to influence the match officials rather than any events on the pitch. Bubbles bursting at West Ham This is probably horrific news for Sheff U who as well as being relegated themselves see their damages payments from West Ham being interrupted and probably at risk of being lost in an administration. They were damned hard done to as Scudamore and chums proved conclusively that bias is alive and well and thriving in the Prem but I must say I am definitely no lover of Sheff Utd and their supporters and never have been.

Backroom Tom Posted May 16, 2011 Author Backroom Share Posted May 16, 2011 Exciting stuff at Swansea, Forest were pushing for an equaliser and the keeper came up for a corner, swansea broke and scored from there half in an empty net to win 3-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually managed to play with him a few times back in the day. You could tell he was going to go far, incredible fitness, decent finisher and pace to burn. Think he has a man u fan though as far as I remember so I doubt he would go to liverpool. but you never know in football! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Castell Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 Reading were crap against Coventry when I saw them. I guess they settled for a play-off place, but they were disinterested and just going through the motions. Long was nothing special that day, and wasn't as good as Marlon King!

Hughesy Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 3-0 Reading...game over (Some Cardiff fans throwing things at the Reading players when taking a throw-in) So Swansea v Reading play-off final - who would people prefer to get promoted??
