Footie thread

[rmcin626]

First time this season, I have something to celebrate and we still don’t have football thread.

[Barry]

Well you have now started one! :)

I don't follow football, or any other sport for that matter, but congratulations to Scotland. If the thread catches on we can make a permanent feature.

I watched the match almost by accident and it was a cracking game, the Scots certainly rode their luck but deserved in the end. Just hoping Kenny can score a few of those at Norwich now under our new manager!

You now have an ex Ranger’s manager, hope all goes well

On paper (is that a thing anymore?) he looks good, but time will tell, Robin! I am optimistic!

Decentralised manager I think Alex, but was not given the funds with the previous owners

[rmcin626]

3 points today not much else to say about it

[Alex_UK]

New manager bounce? Not today! :doh:

Saw that Alex, hopefully will get the team out of the relegation battle.

A couple of board members sacked at Rangers this morning, not before time

[rmcin626]

After a draw that took forever, looks fairly easy for Scotland, not so sure about England though

[rmcin626]

Looks like a few late nights for the World Cup in the summer

The new manager’s unbeaten run in the league continues, now up to 3rd.

Great result today, lucky to only 1 down at half time but much better second half and worthy winners.

[Alex_UK]

Yes, great result, Robin.

My Canaries have looked promising, but Stoke brought us back down to earth this afternoon! Still think we will be fine. Not expecting the playoffs, though!

I’m pretty sure that if you bring in a couple of decent players in the window, you should move up the table .

Yesterday’s game was a bit strange, Marco’s team had about 5 chances but only scored 1, Rangers made a change or two with the formation and dominated the second half and took 3 chances, lots of pressure on the new Celtic manger now doubt he will still be in charge at the end of this week. He is still talking about the performances but in Glasgow you need to be winning firstly and the you can talk about the performances.

"Roy of the Rovers" stuff for Macclesfield in the FA cup today, highly rare for a non-league club to knock out a top division club, let alone the holders! And it proves that at least one Rooney is a half-decent manager! :D

Yes, watched the game, best team won

[rmcin626]

First win in Europe this season, although after the shite at the start of the season under Russell Martin , things have improved under the new manager, still have a chance in the league and cup, which is not the case a couple of months ago.

[rmcin626]

Another good win today against the league leaders, could be an interesting few months

[rmcin626]

After a terrific first half, followed by a poor second half, the league leaders will be pleased with the draw
