Live Match Discussion 2022/23

You think this is unfair you should have seen the late seventies. Bath City won the Southern league before Easter and would have demolished most of division 4 but casting vote on re election sat with Manchester United and they voted fucking Wigan in.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

I’m still bitter about it

Been watching York vs Wrexham. I would expect Wrexham to go up this year and follow it up next year with another, they are a very good team for this level. Aaron Hayden is still a bit shit though.

Top half Conference and bottom half League Two are basically interchangeable these days. They need to go 3-4 up/down now.

You say that, Wimbledon's squad last year was top half league 1 potential with a decent manager (but they didn't have one, so went down). Now they are bottom half League 2 with their best striker playing for Wrexham now. It's all pretty close between about 40-50 clubs I reckon.

I mentioned on another thread recently that the League system should change to 5 divisions of 20 teams. That would at least allow a few more teams into the league pyramid. As you say, proper promotion & relegation should be introduced too.

You would have to go back to the old division 3 north and south to help teams financially but its no great obstacle.

Sky have the rights for both games today. Instead of showing Watford straight after Burnley they are pissing about in the studio with the Watford game on the red button. Annoying.

 

[Alan]

Games? Today? With clubs?

What?

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

League One and Two have been going uninterrupted

Championship is back this weekend (plus there was a rogue game last week) and so they should be, hardly anyone has players away. Where else are the games supposed to go...

 

[Alan]

Oh god, of course. When I hear/read "Watford" and "Burnley" I still think "Prem sides".

The only other club I can really pretend to follow these days (aside from Wolves and Charlotte) is FGR, and even then it's about as zoomed out as you can get.

Key word: *follow*. CLT and Wolves will always be my clubs at heart.

Burnley will be a prem side again soon. Look really good under Kompany

 

[Derby Wolf]

Looks like Broja has been seriously hurt in a friendly against Villa.

Video isn't too graphic but the sounds of him screaming in the aftermath are horrible.

 

[Wilf Wolf]

Sunderland ahead with a penalty against West Brom

 

[Tony Towner]

Albion are on the charge

Such a shame they parted ways with Bruce. Their goals last night were top quality.

"Dean Smith, your football is shit" rings around Carrow Road. I think he may be on his way out.

 

[Jack Regan]

Be a shame for him (gave me the stink eye in a travelodge once).

I've said this on here before, but when I used to live with a Norwich fan at college, he was adamant he'd rather see his team lose 3-2 in an attacking game than grind out a 1-0 win. I didn't get it then and I don't get it now, but it's definitely a thing over there, hence them not being happy even though they are 5th

They're a strange bunch over there. I've not missed having to go to Carrow Road this season.

 

[Tony Towner]

AWB with an assist for Utd

 

[WsWolf]

A good one aswell. Made it look much easier than it was.
