English Football League 2021/22 Season - Playoffs


Recommended Posts

West Brom have sacked Valerian Ismael - a day after he terminated Robert Snodgrass's contract.

BBC - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/60149753

"The 46-year-old Frenchman took the Baggies to fifth in the Championship - but fans had voiced their concerns over his style of football."

Bizarre timing!

Weird to think that West Brom had probably the best manager in the Championship at the moment within their grasp before they appointed Ismael. 

It looks like West Brom will appoint Steve Bruce.

Sky Sports says that Roy Keane, Neil Lennon, Grant McCann and Neil Warnock are on Sunderland's shortlist!

I missed Steve Bruce actually being appointed by West Brom. Good move giving him an 18 month contract. Sort his team out this season, promotion next season then they can wave him goodbye as they get someone better in that'll see them through the next couple of seasons before going back down again to be replaced by Norwich or Fulham.

Leaders Fulham surprisingly 0-2 down at home to Huddersfield Town at HT. The second from the spot is an absolute joke decision though. It’s incredible how soft Penalty awards have become in modern football. The keeper makes no challenge whatsoever and shapes to collect the ball, the forward deliberately runs across him and drops like he’s been shot. Ref blows up and orders the spot kick. Hate to see it, load of shite. [emoji53]

I watched West Brom v Swansea last night.  The Baggies are woeful.  Some amount of shite in that squad.  Think they were 2nd favourites to win the league too.

Raven's probably taking aviation's approach to Luton and counting it as London.

No, just mentioning that Snodgrass has joined Luton Town where 2 other Scottish players (Campbell and Naismith) are currently regular starters. Both in good form.

Maybe the proximity to Luton Town Airport with its cheap and regular flights to Glasgow is a factor in who they chose to sign for.

That reminds me of Lorraine Chase.
