Mattoon

We've got to shoot on sight now

What is it with them getting away with grabbing shirts constantly?

That's 5 star accommodation in Blackpool

Started the game as a side who have had a 3 game humbling, however as the game went on it was all us and any attack from Brentford was snuffed out. It wasn't pretty but it was needed and gives us something to build off. Let's not forget we did that with a weakened team as we looked to save legs for Tuesday. Given the above circumstances and the result I'm happy with that performance.

Correct decision but you know 100% man utd get that

Another pen

Imagine blowing the whistle there

Got our tails up now, need to exert ourselves onto this and don't give them an inch to get back into it

Well done wor Cal 17 left to get

As if ?

Finally!!

Ref needs to keep an eye on their keeper time wasting too btw, every time he brings the players in for the short ball then tells them to go long, taking ages with those kicks when we're on top.

Bar the first 20 minutes I think we've done OK, not half as bad as some making out, we just need something to land in the final 3rd, they've defended well and made it difficult for us to find any room.

3-1 Toon, been in my head for days

That's exactly what it's like everyone knows everyone and if they don't recognise your face they get wary. It's a local town, for local people.

I'd say it's more like the other way round, I lived in Fleetwood for 25 years and it's a close community and a good place to live in terms of it being quiet, however it's the biggest cul-de-sac in the country, only 1 way in and 1 way out and there's absolutely nothing to do there and barely any jobs so most move to Blackpool for work.

Fleetwood have been around since 1908 but we've had a torrid history, the last incarnation was called Fleetwood Freeport and basically a pub league team, attached to the local park I was able to watch them from the park wall as a kid, probably why I wasnt really bothered with football growing up This Fleetwood was formed in 1997 and has been historically our best team finishing 4th in league 1 in 2017. To answer your question, Fleetwood and Blackpool do hate each other but it's not as rabid as the Blackpool/Preston North End hatred. The "Fylde Coast derby" was scheduled for yesterday but postponed for the internationals, but it will be a tasty affair between the supporters.

Phew, thought Netherlands were going to blow my bet

Early game Netherlands were horrific, coming back into it as the game went on, Ireland all fart. Probably fizzle out to a 1-1 at this rate.

Last leg of my Sunday bet on the Dutch, obviously ROI are 1-0 up within 5 minutes

Horrific start to the season for my hometown club, couldn't do any worse tbf

Just have to wait out this tournament and we might get a manager in that actually picks players on form.

I'm obviously biased as he has a face I'd never tire of punching, that being said it seems there are 3 women now with claims of abuse and his interview he did in Brazil wasn't the PR win he was hoping for. That and the fact he's gone into hiding over "false" claims is a massive red flag. Be interested to see the evidence he feels he's got to the contrary though.

Just look at the Bruno thread, if he was given that role for us he could feed Isak all day with those line splitting passes, we really do need a new player to sit deep and free up Bruno.
