Bit like the football equivalent of a freakshow boxing match. Would've been mayhem. Sadly I think it was one or the other. But yes the front options of Sheringham, Klinsmann, Maradona, Anderton and Barmby (both very underrated players) are so fun to think about. Ossie was a genius. None of this 'woke' defending bullshit you see now. Just vibes and prayers. Edit: @Cod Eye sadly Daniel Amokachi had other ideas that season and demolished us in the semi final.

Paid Members I Bent My Wookie Posted April 1 Paid Members Posted April 1 If we think VAR is awful in the men's game, Chelsea vs Arsenal in the Women's Champions League Quarters proved you pretty much need to rip someones hair out to even get a foul or a yellow. Standard of officiating is gonna be the main talking point at the World Cup this summer and I'm already dreading it. Quote
Members SuperBacon Posted April 2 Author Members Posted April 2 De Zerbi had this to say in his first interview. Fair play the club addressed it, but I'm still uneasy about it. There are fans with concerns about comments you made while coaching at Marseille, is there anything you would like to say to them? I would like to answer your question in Italian because I want to be clear. (Translated) I have never wanted to downplay the issue of violence against women or violence against anyone more broadly. In my life, I have always stood up for those who are more vulnerable (people from underserved communities/protected characteristics), more fragile, I’ve consistently fought and taken a stand to be on the side of those who are most at risk. Those of you who know me well, will know that I am not the kind of person who makes compromises to win more games or to win an extra title. I am sorry if I offended anyone's feeling with this subject matter – I have a daughter and I’m very sensitive to these things, and I always have been. I hope that over time people will get to know me better and will understand that at that moment I didn’t mean to take a stance at that time. Quote

I think it's really good that he didn't wait till his first press conference to address this, that's something at least. Quote

The guy that interview him, Rob Daly, is absolutely great. He once was giving away his commentary notes from a game to first replier, and I said how much my youngest would love them. Wasn't quick enough, but he then sent me a DM apologising and invited us to the comms position next home game to havd a look have a chat etc. Quote
Paid Members Lion_of_the_Midlands Posted April 3 Paid Members Posted April 3 You mackems were happy to let Josh Coburn come to Millwall, how happy are you now. It's awful to be in with a chance of automatic promotion. The inevitable let down of getting beat in the playoffs will be even more bitter. The last time Millwall were in the Championship playoffs there was a search for a fan who threw half a meat pie at the linesman for giving a contentious offside decision. Quote
Members SuperBacon Posted April 3 Author Members Posted April 3 Just seen who Millwall have left to play. They will surely never have a better opportunity than this. Selfishly I want Southampton to go up as someone very close works for them, but Millwall going up would be great stuff. Quote

We've got no one in the top 9 left to play. We will definitely blow it. Quote

And would dash the hopes of all those Met Police officers who were counting on the overtime of the two games. Well Lincoln need 1 point from their last 6 games to he automatically promoted. Which still seems mental. Quote

An absolute faff and a farce, but handled very well in both instances to be honest. Quote

While Millwall no longer have the likes of Harry The Dog we do still have some "Characters" and so do West Ham, so to be safe if we do play West Ham they should have a 7am kick off, on a Thursday, in June.
