[MARKakaJIM]

Is this Beckham v Zidane UNICEF match not on TV?

 

[YoungWolf]

Oh yeah! What time is it on?

 

[MARKakaJIM]

They're playing now so I guess it's not being covered.

 

[YoungWolf]

Highlights on BBC tonight

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Becks is still worth the entrance fee on his own. Still miss him in an England shirt.

Leyton Orient deservedly take the lead at Hartlepool. They have been by far the better team so far.

 

[FrankMunro-371]

Silly penalty to give away. Hartlepool level.

 

[FrankMunro-371]

Quite an enjoyable first half. Though Orient must be kicking themselves that they are not in front.

 

[ROVERT47]

Takes me back to that great season we spent in League 1, no media coverage, very little television coverage, most games played at 3 o'clock on a Saturday afternoon, heaven!

Indeed, and tackles flying in, no silly rolling around in agony, and total commitment from both teams.

Hartlepool take the lead totally against the run of play.

Whilst I don't disagree - with hindsight it was only that good because we escaped at the first time of asking. If we had cocked up & were still there I would be feeling less enamoured

I know a Sheffield United fan, and he is totally fed up of the Blades being stuck in league one.

Club of that size really shouldn't be stuck - just shows how easy it would have been had we not got it right in that one season

any Division where you under perform year in year out gets boring.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Our games in L1 were largely dull. Once we went 1-0 up you knew we were going to win nearly every time.

Game against Carlisle at the end of the season, training ground game. Dull as fuck.

 

[Kenny]

Team in party mode v team wanting to slit their wrists.

Game v Rotherham was an epic game. I enjoyed most games from the 2nd half of the season, certainly didn't find them dull. Yes we were nailed on to win but I enjoyed our attacking play.

Wouldn't want to go back to L1 mind.
