    Good defending by the scotchlander there. I've often tried to induce a challenge that looks like a possible head injury, to take the heat out of defending a set piece.

    Taking one for the team.

    Defensive howler and a peach of a finish.

    Also, apologies for starting that conversation in here. No idea what any of this has to do with SSC's career suicide.

    ...and yet we empower these sort of idiots to have ever more say over games, and to facilitate ever more complex judgments at in game speed.

    No wonder football is in such a fucking mess.

    Robert Page sacked by Wales. SSC should have waited two more days...

    Wales manager is roughly the equivalent of Hull City manager.

    I can't imagine that if Wales were interested then they wouldn't have let him know that the job was about to become available. So either they weren't, or he wasn't.

    Rumour is that Burnley are going to hire Scott Parker, which is fucking hilarious.

    Poor Neco & Brennan, if he is even remotely as much of a cunt as a manager as he was as a player.

    I know someone who has dealt with him personally, only ever having had experiences that might be categorised as charming and generous. Does a lot for charidee. As is very often the case with elite sportsmen, competitive behaviours in the field of play should not be confused with personal behaviours and characteristics. Sportspeople are very often the best of us...in more than one way, being familiar as they are with both triumph and disaster. YMMV.

    Presumably Roberto Martinez will rock into another international team to get them near-missing, although in a likeable way.
