OpenC

I often feel like the only reason I still force myself to bother with football at a level higher than non league is because I would miss this place such a grim and grubby spectacle these days

We're just like everybody else ultimately, pretending we don't need the copium but we absolutely do

What a surprise can't believe they let him take one, he looks fucking haunted

Don't let Trippier take a penalty

Same. I haven't even got a garden, but they don't know that

Lad just angling for another long stretch of paid gardening leave I reckon, has found it preferable to actually doing the job

Like Mick McCarthy, one most folk can't help but warm to a bit

I wonder if they will ever consider just, you know, backing their own team maybe

Couple of great posts in the painting hands thread, although they haven't gone down too well. One is basically a brave 'i quite liked it when we weren't just going on about Saudi Arabia the whole time'

No fan of Villa but cannot be denied they're doing what needs to be done. Would rather they got top four than Liverpool, Citeh, Spurs, MNU

Reckon Eddie should consider starting Kacie Elson on the left if he continues to just not fancy Hall's ability

Halifax probably wishing they'd just given us the bye when they didn't want to turn up because England were playing

Was a lovely turn like, great idea

That said I feel like Fylde have probably set up to exploit our only weakness, a defence that rarely gets tested. This sort of outcome was inevitable really.

Shambles of a game absolutely all over the place. This is what women's football used to be routinely like

Bwoah Shot Bridget 7

Fucking yellow card for an innocuous little hold about 400 miles from goal referees are prissy wankers at this level by and large

Aye and as ably demonstrated earlier it only takes a couple of dozen minutes to score five. The manager never looks very satisfied with them at the best of times, I'm sure she will have been into their ribs about it

Refreshing to see somebody just fall over in the box and not thrash about slapping the turf as if a million injustices have been done on them

So is it championship next if they get promoted then? Always struggle to understand the promotion structure

Fightback is on

Christ McQuade hat trick after 25 minutes Stop, they're already dead

Jasmine McQuade again. Playing like prime Barcelona

I'm not sure I've even seen us scored against yet. Definitely feels like a lot of these are playing a league or two below their ability which I guess is exactly what you want if you're looking to make progress.

Could be a long day for Fylde this 3
