1-0 & 1-1 were the shortest odds both at 5/1

One of four teams looking to make it 4/4.

Sneaked the fee up to £9.99 which is pretty outrageous for 1 camera coverage and often no commentary.

Same price as last season.

[Rene Artois]

9 games before they lost their first fixture last season. They then met us in the FA Cup.
It looks like we are weaker on the pitch this season?
The 3H’s will have an affect on the result – heat, humidity, hard pitch.
Expecting a drab opening game.
Brackley 1-0 Scunthorpe
0-0 at half time.
Att: 1,150

Scunthorpe United FC & Hercules CF are the only teams I follow.

As a kid there was nothing better than having your own program and then getting as many signatures of both sets of players as you could.

Great move.

The program at my Spanish club consists of 16 pages and is free.
It carries an editorial, tables, club fixtures, week & weekend league fixtures, year to date results of all the teams in the league (grid), the opposition (the club & players), Herculanos (fans) Around The World, Herculean Heredity (games, managers, players, trophies etc), Blue & White Legends (more modern history, 1970s to now), Guest Writers (ex players & managers), U19s section, U16s section, the History Files.

Not bad for nowt!

Buxton each way (top 3 finish)

£72.50 back if they finish second or third.

A seasons entertainment for less than the cost of one Indian meal at the local Punjabi Palace.

Talking of odds.

I had 1 bet at the latest kick about this summer:

Buxton

I’m going to have an ew punt on them.
I’ve no idea what price they are?
[ 25/1 – just looked it up ]

15 players departed – 10 new arrivals

Average age of departures is 27.
Average age of arrivals is 21.

A 24 man squad.

What was so special about Beckham apart from his me me me attitude in wanting to be in the papers for no apparent reason

His right foot.
No left foot, couldn’t head, no pace, couldn’t tackle, but magic right foot.

Take a look at him playing CM for the greatest ever team… Real Madrid.

2024-25 … 2024-25 … 2024-25

I’d like to be the first to congratulate Manchester City on winning this seasons (2024-25) Premier League title.

After finishing as champions in six of the last seven seasons – it was so predictable!

[Runners up twice during those eleven years to boot]

[Rene Artois]

Didn’t play a single game in 2023-24… unless they haven’t updated his profile.

1 goal every 5 games at level 7 the season before.

Not for me!

Really hoping Foden keeps up his form for the Euros. He’s been incredible this season and a joy to watch.

I’ve not watched Ingerland since South Africa 2010.

Bang that drum, toot the vuvuzelas, footballs coming home… lol

I gave up hope of international success years ago.

2030 marks the centennial of the inaugural World Cup – will we ever host it again, lest win it?

Who cares?

I’ve not watched one MotD or any other ‘highlights’ show all season.
In 2022-23 I may have seen a few minutes of a handful of Sunday morning’s televisual offerings.
I think the last full game I watched ‘live’ (dodgy stick) was the game when Leicester won their title in 2015/16.

SUFC and my Spanish RFEF (Real Federación Española de Fútbol) Primera Federación team is what keeps me interested & entertained.

Six League Cup triumphs during the same period.

We may as well congratulate them on winning that trophy again too.

Premier League Odds:

Man City 8/11

Arsenal 9/2

Liverpool 15/2

Man Utd 10/1
Chelsea 14/1

(Wow!) Champions League Odds:

Man City 1/2

Bayern Munich 2/1

Real Madrid 8/1
Barcelona 12/1
PSG 12/1

FA Cup & League Cup

Man City 3/1

The next priced clubs are 7/1 in either competition to succeed.

A very dim & dull season ahead according to the bookies!

With 30 minutes to go…

And on 61 minutes; Man City make it 3-1 and the champagne is flowing!

6 titles in 7 years!

Pointless competition nowadays!

I’d list them as 1/5 favourites for next season!

Shall we congratulate them now for winning next year’s crown?
