Yeah but the punch to the head happened in the Arsenal game so it's funny.

We've just sacked Mark Robins, club can shove it up their arse now.
Chelsea playing some bloke called Noah tonight.
Fuck knows. Talk of a change in coaching being done behind his back (Adi Viveash suddenly let go in summer) and the statement saying that we've let a manager go and will hire a new 'head coach' points that way. Frank Lampard current bookies favourite, shoot me in the head someone
Carsley would make a lot of sense.
RIP Wullie.
Lamps is the favourite.
Drifting thankfully, Wycombe chap seems to be favourite now followed by Lampard and a a mix of ex-players like Carsley and Championship merry-go-round managers like Wagner.
It’s just the way we play mate. In all honesty though he definitely seems like the perfect manager for Spurs.
Chelsea could genuinely score double figures if they bothered getting out of first gear here
The difference in quality between Chelsea and 99% of the teams in this competition is hilarious
I disagree. Just to qualify from the league stage would be one of the finest hours for English clubs in Europe.
Absolute stat padding for the whole national extra place thing though.
The United game encapsulates this thread title well.
So what level are Noah realistically? Tier 10 of the English structure? Is there even a tenth tier? Is that just Sunday league?
Reminds me of when this bobbins was introduced in FM and you'd take over at a big club that found themselves in it on the back of a shit season. Smashing FC goat herder 8-0 every Thursday kept morale up for the whole season, irrespective of the shit happening elsewhere. Guess it's a shame if you're a Chelsea fan that it doesn't work that way in real life.
Lovely header from Amad.
If you flick through Noah's starting XI (I've done it so you don't have to), they've mostly been flown in from half decent leagues like French, Spanish 2nd tiers, some Liga Portugal experience. Probably slightly awed by the occasion and out of their depth tactically. I'd say four goals worse at a neutral venue on an average day is probably about right, which is similar to a BPL club against a shit league two team. Call it Sutton United.
Hearts 0 - 1 Heidenheim. I do love the Conference League.
When it’s all said and done, I think Dewsbury Hall will go down as one to the worst signings of all time. He makes Danny Drinkwater look decent
Viktoria Plzeň beating Sociedad
Also had RFS of Latvia drawing 1-1 with Anderlecht, Eflsborg drawing with Braga by the same score, and disappointingly for me, APOEL beating Fiorentina 2-1.
Given the timelines and almost certainly British... that has to be Dyche, right? O'Neil and Howe too young, McKenna and Martin too young and not in the Premier last few seasons. Could be Steve Cooper, who looks most like a sexual predator, but I doubt the Beeb would carry out such a thorough investigation for a b-lister like him.

I read that yesterday and found the wording curious from a journalistic perspective – 'a Premier League club boss'. Imo, that ensures enough legal ambiguity to cover managers without fear of jigsaw ID as we could have directors of football, chief execs, technical directors, non-football 'bosses' lumped into the mix too.
Hasn't this story come up before?
I hate the way that article is worded.
Sounds serious.The Football Association has opened a safeguarding inquiry into a Premier League club boss, a year on from a BBC investigation
Shocking. I'm utterly disgusted.The investigation found that despite three women reporting the man to the police for alleged sexual offences, he remained in position at the club
This is horrific stuff.One of the women told the BBC the FA had failed to protect women and girls by taking no action, despite her being under 16 at the time of the alleged incident
The Athletic, a BBC investigation and now an FA one? How on earth is this man still in a job?Following reports in Sports news publication The Athletic, the BBC has seen confirmation that the FA has now opened an inquiry of its own
Oh, that's how.following a police decision to take no further action
Now, I don't doubt that it's possible this man was a turbo nonce and has gotten away with it for all of these years, but what are we saying? Fucking BBC investigates is now a higher authority than the actual police.
The hubris of these people is off the charts.
Why did all the Dutch people attack the Jews in Amsterdam? Oh wait...
I thought this related to a club owner. Who owns a club which is similar to but in no way related to East Gammon.
They say boss rather than manager so I'm willing to believe it's a chairman.
It was David Sullivan/Gold wasn't it? Whichever one hasn't died.
The pornographer with form for treating women badly? Quelle surprise.
Fair points gents. Bad Yev-take with that one.
"Dutch Prime Minister Dick Schoof says he is "horrified by the antisemitic attacks on Israeli citizens"
Israeli President Isaac Herzog calls the violence an "antisemitic pogrom"
However, bombing Palestinian women and children in their homes is fair game.![]()
At the Wolves game and they must win vs Southampton.
Glasner's got to be close to getting the bullet as well.
City have a bloke named Pussy in their defence. The back 4 in general looks incredibly average - they could be on for 4 losses in a row. Midfield is dog shit as well for their standards with Nunes and Kovacic both playing
Hopefully.
Brighton rarely turn up against City though, certainly not in meaningful games.
Brighton should win at a canter.
City's line up looks so weak. What's he playing at?
Brighton 1-4 City incoming. 2 each from Foden and the robot.
