Celtic have sacked their manager, Wilfrid Nancy, after 33 days

He moved during the American league summer break and is sacked in time to get another job there before the season starts
 
Anyone seen Leeds' penalty at Newcastle

Hits the arm of a Newcastle defender who is already half way falling on the floor. His arm in a pretty natural position for someone who is falling

Leeds get some pretty astonishing decisions to be honest, so do Sunderland

Leeds have been excellent at Newcastle, although aided by Newcastle who have given the ball away a lot. Newcastle now have penalty & make it 3-3 with 10 minutes added time to go. Leeds display all the traits that we don't like pressing, urgency, aggression, intensity, energy, movement, actually passing the ball to each other & quickly

That really made me laugh Rads Newcastle were awarded the pen as I was typing that & yes then went on to win but even during that 10 mins added time that became 12 mins Leeds created their own chances really good performance from them that as you say got them nothing but a loss

Not sure its a good form wishing injury to any player.

He'd be a shoo-in for England, IMO, if he played for a bigger club than Leeds.
Natural finisher, strong, fairly quick and good in air.

Successor to Kane, i'd say.

Are you trying to out-pope pope with dodgy comparisons? Apart from the fact that both play football and are men thats where the comparison stops.

I Dont think we need him injured to finish higher than them.

not at all chap.

Why we didn’t make a play for Lewin is a ragret I’ll carry with me forever.

Absolute quality and should be on the plane for Englands glorious QF failure this summer….IMO

😎

And wishing injury on any player is just a bit mean….IMO.

And hope you’re having a good day, pal….IMO
