@KiwiPie i at least can confirm i'm interested, all aspects, Wimbledon were there not long ago...chance we'll be there again (although we did get our second win of 2022 on the weekend) plus all the aspects of the fan ownership stuff
currently the fact they cant buy their way out of that league easily is one of the only things stopping more people wanting to sell out....but then the fact they cant get out also mean we'll do anything to stop going back there
I wonder if it would be better for all teams if it was 4 up, 4 down between League 2 and the National League. One disastrous season and you can fall out of L2 and it is a really hard division to get out of given the number of ex-league clubs fighting each other every season.

@KiwiPie Would that help though as you would still have just as many clubs coming down so effectively it would still be as much of a shit fight.
Looking at the teams that are currently in the National League there are a lot who have played in the Football League but most briefly.
I guess you all want to emulate Luton or Rotherham. At least there is automatic promotion. There were some decent non-league teams prior to 1986 who never got the chance to go up.

@Rancid-Schnitzel so good
look, i'm just happy someone on a sports show actually had a strong opinion
but holy shit that was an awful take. The price alone meant 15 goals would have been an amazing season
the fact he's got 14 after 8...
that guy should be shown that clip every single week.

@Bovidae Pretty good - Swiss education system is very good hence his English is superb as well.
Born in the same village as my wife. He’s a keeper that one

@Higgins We did have our best 2 players on the bench but that is an embarrassing result! Comes to something when even non league teams don't take the cup seriously.
Big win for Liverpool this morning which benefits both the North London clubs.

A lucky win for Arsenal at Leeds, which had plenty of drama. First there was a 40 min delay to the game shortly after kickoff due to a local power cut. Arsenal had the better of the 1st half so deserved to be leading due to Saka's goal. But the 2nd half was all Leeds. They dominated possession and had numerous chances to equalise, none more so than the penalty. Then Gabriel gets sent off for a kick on Bamford, which VAR rightly overturned as Bamford pushed him over leading to the clumsy contact. Ramsdale was huge.
These are the tricky away fixtures you need to win if you want to make the top 4.

@Cyclops Man City are still the team to beat. There are a lot of games to be squeezed in before the WC, and squad depth will be so important. They can rotate players without losing quality.
Agree.
If the goal was allowed to stand I think they would have won 2-0.
Fine margins in football.

As of today ....
Since Bournemouth lost 9-0 to Liverpool the only unbeaten side in the EPL is .... Bournemouth.
The current leader of the Championship has lost more games than the team at the bottom.
And 5 hours later both of these statistical nuggets are no longer true.

I was surprised you hadn't talked them up during this run.
Yesterday I watched most of Brighton v Forest. Forest were seriously clueless about how to progress the ball up the field. Not a single attempt in the first half, not much of note in the 2nd but still got away with a point. I watch the Bundesliga highlights every week and difference seems to be that lower teams there go for it so you seem to often have 4 attackers against 5 defenders. Too many EPL games are tedious because both teams keep so many players back that there is no space for the attackers.
