The Football News Thread 2019/20 - everything not Wolves

[Deutsch Wolf]

Not sure I've ever heard anyone sing about Boly, home or away! Which is strange as you could easily make an argument for him being our best player.

It's the kind of thing a section of our fans would probably do though. They don't understand how every English club who had a big black bloke in the team nicknamed him "Bruno" in the 80s/early 90s but you can't do that now.

Bravo sir.

Bravo sir.

Good on him and good on the wrecking company. Not sure any such allowances would be made here in the states.

 

[Parkins left foot]

Bravo sir.

Looks like he gave them back rather than trying to make money (even if it had been going to a charity would not have been appropriate - hopefuly some of those who got their families bricks back donated something)

 

[James]

Bravo sir.

Pure class from that young man

Too big to c&p, but for £3 a month or thereabouts sign up to The Athletic and read Danny T's Brian Clough story, it's tremendous and the antithesis to the nobhead which we employed. Genuinely heartwarming

 

[YoungWolf]

Agreed mate. Incredible reading but I'm so shocked the story hasn't been shared before! As Daniel Taylor said, it could be a movie itself!

Was going to post about that earlier but forgot. One of the best articles yet and the quality is high on there

 

[Tredman]

That is an exceptional article. The one on the Bulgaria game from this morning is also very good.

 

[Tredman]

And the John Charles one from today too.

Benteke signs a contract extension at Palace.

Are they fucking mad?????

 

[Aikiwolf]

Dr T has an arrest warrant issued for him!

There will be an odd number of clubs in the FA Cup 1st round draw (due to the Bury situation) so one lucky team will get a bye to the second round. Probably will be Ipswich

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

It will be the last team out of the hat so I hope it is one of the non-league qualifiers. The £36k in prize money could be huge for one of the really tiny teams.

 

[James]

Could be a handy payday to a club like Hednesford or Stourbridge

Good draw for Darlo (the club, doubt Mike wants to do a matchday for a club he doesn't support)

Depending on when it is, I might just. Got lots of mates who follow Darlo home and away so it might be a good day out*


*if going to Walsall is EVER a good day out!

 

[Kenny]

Walsall is a great place for a day out

 

[MARKakaJIM]

Must be a terrible away day, shit to get to and nothing anywhere near the ground to entertain you.
