Bafana Bafana are on holiday so it's always a good time for anybody to play them. They couldn't even score a penalty against Mali... Now now... Rovers will be buzzing, if they have managed to crawl out the pubs and recover....

Surely West Ham are better than that! Tunisia losing to Namibia is a lot more shocking. Tunisia (28th), Namibia (115th) according to latest FIFA Ranking. Funny ol' game this....

I also read earlier that Newcastle would be an option. Didn't know the bookies were onto it already, lol His sacking at Spurs had more to do with Senior Management realising his toxicity. I think Daniel Levy felt it was worth losing the cup final rather than put up with his demands. Maybe not ideal timing, but when is a good time... And now Roma sacking him after a match where his was once again banned from the touchline says all about his character recently.

Lol, I hope not ManU.... 😂

"We would like to thank José on behalf of all of us at Roma for his passion and efforts since his arrival at the club," said owners Dan and Ryan Friedkin. "We will always have great memories of his tenure at Roma, but we believe that an immediate change is in the best interests of the club. We wish Jose and his assistants all the best in their future endeavours."

Was disappointed that I missed the game's this weekend, while being out camping. Although, I usually make sure that I have access to games. So had to rely on LiveScore feeds. Not a great result for Spurs, but also not a poor result. Timo Werner get an assist debut! 👌🏽

I disagree. Although I don't watch Chelsea, I'm loving their performances and results. It helps that they are far from Top 4 contention. They get Mudryk for 70-odd million, we get Timi Werner for 15-odd million. Everybody wins.... Potch must stay!!!

Did anybody catch on fire at Chelsea under Lampard.... 🤔 Then again, the loan fee and terms are probably worth the risk. Funny thing stats.... His goal involvement stats at Chaelsea are on a par with Bukhayo Saka at Arsenal... Now how does that sound....! Okay, so my hope is that he scores at the same rate AND he finishes off half the sitters he missed at Chelsea. That'll give them the blues....

Your mate at Plymouth will be keeping an eye on Ashley Phillips. Loan deal confirmed today. I guess it means Spurs will be signing a Central Defender imminently. And Timo Werner tonight. COYS

And I would never make fun of a fellow betting man's loss.... its the call for redemption that me! 😂😂

I watched his interview on TalkSport, and he came across as very calm, and unfazed. He was the limelight. He was also quite happy to accept whatever the outcome. A real Champ 🏆

Yeah, Littler is big news. I've been surprised to read after every round that he has progressed to the next, lol.... I hope Wayne Rooney is watching this.... 👀 😂

I hope he doesn't get the sack! I'm enjoying the results Yannited are picking up at the minute. Spursy rings a bell....

Awesome! What a time of year, as well the vibe since this unbeaten run.... Its gonna be super awesome! Looks like skin's turning a slight green colour.... Huh!! 😂 Enjoy Bud 😉

WTF....!!! Gotta say that cannot use injuries and suspensions as an excuse any longer. This was naivety at its worst! Forget that it was a makeshift defensive lineup. Under 13's know better to deal with defensive marking and positioning! This was just awful. I'm sorry to say, but there's a methis and a strategy to a high-press style, and this Spurs lineup only got the memo 80 minutes into the game, having been fortunate to have only shipped 4 by then. Shocking! Oh well, the other London Derby will have to be my consolation....

Nah Dude, I can't feel sorry for Unai Emery or Villa! My side are just 3 points off Villa, with a game in hand... This is our opportunity 😂

Just look at this ManU side.. showing off fir their new shareholder! 😂😂😂

Here's another WTF moment... Imagine your side scoring 4 goals and your oppent only scores 1... but you still lose the match! Sheffield United 2-3 Luton Town

Meanwhile... Just look at Saints ripping up the Championship! Phenomenal... their slow start to the season seems a thing of the past. Brilliant!

Unbelievable! Looks nothing like the Newcastle of last season... despite the injuries this season. Even the new players don't look to be on par.

I'm lovin' it ❤️❤️

Tottenham Hotspur have put out a Club Statement this evening, affirming their commitment to European Football and EUFA, in light of the court ruling today. And Rishi Sunak has announced that he will ban English Clubs from joing the Eurpoean Super League.

I can't say that I could see Cooper saving Forest this season. 1 win 13 and 2 in 28 is not exactly good record. Irrespective of what might have gone before. In saying that, I'm also not entirely convinced by his replacement either.

Very interesting that this approach is targeting European Football Clubs, while FIFA are targeting a 32-team Global Club World Cup from 2025. The race is on. I wonder how clubs will have to set up when playing in all of these additional matches, in light of their present complaints about players being overplayed with too little time for recovery. Bigger squads? I think not. Multiple teams? Hhmmm... Let's hear Nuno Espirito Santo, in his 1st interview yesterday, as Forest manager saying that his squad is too big.... Okay then.

While we have some reading time... https://www.espn.co.uk/football/story/_/id/39159778/eu-top-court-rules-uefa-fifa-block-super-league?appsrc=sc I smell multiple appeals and rule changes by FIFA before any of this becomes a reality. Although, it must be noted that we have recently witnessed the launch of the LIV Golf Championships, backed by the abundance of PIF money in the Emirates.... Getting out the popcorn... 🍿
