Reply | Rotherham Keeper buys fans 600 pints

That's a nice gesture, albeit one at 9.00am. I'd say a lot of clubs would be very happy to sign him this summer.
I'd ask which of those current or ex-players would your conscience allow you to accept a pint from? That should narrow down the list of in-scope players considerably. [Post edited 2 May 14:16]

The semi final, per their world rankings, is:
29th vs 44th; 12th vs 31st
This reminds me of when Greece won the Euros in 2004 and the bookies won all the bets placed before the tournament started. |

Ronnie, Trump and Allen all got knocked out in the quarter finals. This has been a crazy few days in Sheffield. |

I think it was when Nigel Spackman got the sack and several people submitted posts thinking it was the first time the news was being shared with the readers of the message board. It doesn't happen too regularly these days. |

Dream on, but no we're not.
We were very lucky this season that key players all avoided injury on a squad with very little depth of talent. That is unusual and it may not happen again.
As alluded to already, we need to resolve concerns in the front line and in goal. We will probably lose some of our better players over the summer.
The teams competing for promotion will include those benefitting from parachute payments, which gives them a massive competitive advantage.
A top half finish would be tremendous, but optimistic. |

It's not boredom, it's blood pressure easing, stress reducing relief!
We'll now lift up our heads up from our phones, realise that Spring has finally arrived, then find things that need to be done around the house that should have been done ages ago. Those tasks will be undertaken in a good mood. |

Attacking did not weary them, nor did Gareth condemn.
At the possible going down of the club, and in the mourning.
We will remember them. |

I'd say it was a re-run of Bottom. |

Derry are progressing nicely in the football and will throw down the gauntlet to Dublin and Kerry this year. They won the League final in a thriller against Dublin and there was nothing to choose between them on the pitch. Derry have more scope to improve than Dublin.
As to the hurling, you want to look past Limerick but you can't. No matter what challenge is put to them, they always find the answers and come out on top by the end. Clare should have held onto their lead against them yesterday, but didn't. Limerick keep finding a way to win and you just have to admire that. |

at 10:51 21 Apr 2024
Many wingers dazzle with the ball at their feet. They can effortlessly glide past tackles and catch the eye as a result. It seems to me that very few can regularly deliver an end product. Millar just joins an ever lengthening queue of wingers I have seen who can't deliver a damaging pass or score when given the opportunity. |

I just read his Wiki page. The impression I got from his behaviours was that his managerial style can be best described as, em, "colourful". [Post edited 18 Apr 9:25]

Reply | Real Madrid observations
at 23:07 17 Apr 2024
I thought the Madrid players played for each other as a collective unit. As per the last couple of seasons in the Champions League, they appeared to understand their limitations going forward and played to their strengths, being the ability to work together to soak up pressure.
I thought it was a really impressive performance. |

Reply | So frustrating.

This season has been a useful opportunity to compare and contrast the effects of adrenaline and stress on yourself during matches. One is good for you. The other is bad for your health.
It should be noted that fans of many clubs don't get to experience the same wide swings in emotions that we have had this season. I suspect that some might even be secretly envious. [Post edited 10 Apr 13:03]
