How's your footy team doing?

We’ve got a home tie against the mighty toffees.

It’s so long since we were in the second round draw of any cup competition that the number on our ball was in Roman numerals

UTT Rog

Got a bit of a tonking down south today,  sniff, sniffle, sob. 2 ~~ 0 defeat by Portsmouth.

That’s not a tonking, a tonking is what I unfortunately witnessed yesterday. 
we waited 524 days for what, our ritual drubbing by the Cottagers. Fulham have recently become our bogie team, and it’s usually a very big bogie.

My GS and I were initially in rapture when Town scored first,  only for the goal to be chalked of for a dubious offside. I suppose that we were fortunate that we only saw three of their goals, we were getting drinks when their second went in and on our way home when they scored the fifth

Its the thugs from Deepdale at home on Tuesday and luckily we’ll be away in our van, 

UTT I suppose Rog

According to those who saw the game @ Portsmouth, Roger, Crewe were lucky that the Trading Standards Bods were not in attendance, 'coz t'Alex could have ended up in serious trouble !

I see that yet another of United's Best ,  Denis The Lawman, has been diagnosed with Neurological  Problems. 

He who "leapt like a salmon" and headed many goals.....and with the old 'casey' 

BTW Brian, you remain quiet after Stanleys' visit to Porridgeland yesterday?! 

Oh, JonRay, That's Cruel    --  They got us into another right mess  

And the Mess(age) continued in the EFL cup @ Leeds tonight 

Leeds Won -- Football lost 

Throwing tennis balls and flares onto the pitch was something you don't see very often as the Latics beat Stanley on penalties. Obviously Stanley are concentrating on league matters, whilst t'others worry about their owners.

Aside Interesting watching the Canaries this week - shipping five, then scoring six in consecutive games. 

And that was the match I missed. Talk about Sod’s law. Too busy painting my new summer house.

we went to the match agin the Toffees int’ league cup on Tuesday and although we lost,  came away relatively happy because they played well. I said to the GS if they play like this on Saturday they could beat Reading.

Football is a crazy game, a fortnight ago we were third from bottom, today we’re third from top! Plus we’ve got a positive goal difference, we haven’t had one of those for ages.

UTT Rog😀⚽️
