Subject: Nasty goes to The Match

Posted by: nasty_liar
Date: Jan 15 18

This is my new blog about all things sports.

Warning to any North American readers expecting any of your sports to be featured. They will not. I do not watch Baseball, Basketball, Ice Hockey or American Football.

I am a huge sports fan though. The most important being football, or soccer to those in North America, in particular the team I have supported since I was a boy. Huddersfield Town.

Although I spent most of my childhood in Essex, I suppose that I am just "Nationalised Essex", being born "North of the Border" in Suffolk!

Oh dear. Liverpool may have to play the Carabao Cup round with MK Dones.
Who got this player registration fracas so wrong.
As if we haven't got enough games on our schedule.

Hold on to your hats!

Extraordinary news!

Huddersfield Town won last night! In the battle of the bottom two in the championship, 24th vs 23rd, the Terriers finally registered a 1-0 victory away at Stoke!

Hang on nasty, I've had one heart attack...........you trying to give me another? Lol

Well done Terriers..........serves Stoke right, never forgiven them for ruining our last game at the old Layer Road ground (and our final game in Championship too), by beating us 0-1. :(

Liverpool won't have to replay the match just pay a fine of £200,000.

I'd say that's fair, hardly a major discretion was it.

............near enough "case dismissed" as £200,00 "peanuts" to Liverpool.

Btw according to Wikipedia , which we all know is not infallible, the AVERAGE weekly wage for Premiership player is £60,000..........so a fine of £200,000 is hardly going to break the bank!

I knew we would love we the England match last night as soon as I saw the line up. I like Southgate but to use so many out of form players was a miscalculation.
By half time I changed channels and watched the final of Celebrity Master Chef.

Commentator, "England are enjoying their best spell of the match"....said about 30 seconds before the Czech's scored their 2nd goal. I sometimes wonder if the TV commentators are actually watching the same match as I am!
IMO England were 2nd best throughout.

Generally I have enjoyed watching Gareth Southgates England as he seems to get the most out of them but last night wasn't the best performance but it wasn't awful either. One late goal the difference and if we could defend we would have won 1-0 (shambolic in defence really).

I think there is this unrealistic expectation for England and I don't understand why? If you look at the players they are not greats! We have probably one player that would play in any club team in the world and that's it!

I enjoy following England loads more since I amended my expectation level and made myself think about them more realistically. They are nowhere near the best in the world. There's probably about 12-15 sides that I would say are better but regardless of that, even if they were the best, everyone has a off day sometimes and occasionally the opposiation gets it right and performs above their level like the Czechs did last night. When that happens you get a loss even if you are the best in the world... which England are not.
