Wild that this level of performance is acceptable. I was reading an unrelated news article (it was 3-0 at the time) by the time I’d finished reading it was 6. FFS.

Match day! Fully expecting to wake up to a cricket score, but we can always live in hope. COYR

Think it’s redtv or nothing. Maybe bein tv. I know they advertised having the games so a possible source

Bill bailey along with jimmy carr seem to come down this way a fair bit. Will try and catch a couple more next year, just not fucking cheap!

Was sure we had a thread about this but had no idea it was that long since we’d had a post on it! Some fond memories of this! finally got to see Kevin Bridges live this week. Kicked off his tour down here in wellington. Funny as fuck, a lot of cry laughing. Was surprised how hammered the crowd was for a Tuesday, some good hecklers getting owned too. Good times.

Been watching Tokyo vice, based on a true story about a yank journalist in Japan. Really good so far, about 5 episodes in.

I’m not doubting they’re better than polvara, but it doesn’t seem to work when they play together. So if that means we need to rotate a bit more then so be it.

Can see us setting up formation wise pretty similar to PAOK, albeit, i'd expect Miovski and possibly Polvara to start? Don't want to see the Barron / Clarkson combo being tried again, it doesn't work. Playing two strikers will probably leave us short in the middle of the park, which is where we need numbers. Not ideal playing them after their European pumping, as they'll likely want to come out firing, but they usually play like that against us anyway. If we can nullify them for a while and not concede some of the daft goals we've been conceding, then we might be able to grab something from this. Out Bed Bed Bed 3-0, no dons scorer

Getting third in this group would have been result. I'm not overly bothered tbh. Yes, it would have been great to go through, but always felt that this euro jaunt was too early for us. We played some good stuff and a lot of grit and determination. happy with that performance and the subs seemed to make sense. I know some were surprised with Shinnie coming off, but we have a big game on the weekend. Great finishes for both our goals, just our defence again letting us down with some silliness. Overall, proud of that. No mean feat to get a draw over there.

How wasn't he booked for diving? The officiating has been horrendous.

Anyone heading across for this one?

Yas, let the rebellion commence. Nice one Panda

Taking a leaf out of Rico’s preferred playbook, here’s the OG thread but for the reverse fixture PAOK beat olympiakos on the weekend, 4-2 away from home after a 2-0 loss to AEK earlier in the week. Can’t really see is picking much up over there but hopefully they’ll think they have us sussed out and we’ll somehow manage to conjure up something different. We didn’t really line up incorrectly the first time, just the fucking subs were wholeheartedly fucking stupid. many DTers heading along? out bed work work 3-1 them, Clarkson

Sakes, I’d forgotten about morris.

This is a good point, def thought it was a pen and was amazed to not see it being given.

I actually thought we played a bit better after he got the red tbh. But I was being distracted a number of times. That was a turgid watch, but Bojan stepped up when we really needed him to. Could and should have doubled his count, but we got the win and defended resolutely after that. Who do we want, hearts or huns? I get the logic with hearts, but weirdly I think I’d find losing to them in a final harder. Enjoy your evening dandies, perfect start to a sunny Sunday here!

That’s what I don’t get. I’m sure we’ve conceded pens for less.

Was a horrendous first half. I’d forgotten kick off was at a watchable time for me. Almost have preferred the sleep after watching that first 45 hopefully a better second!

Properly tearing it up in Serie A. It’s a joy to see. Not only for our connection, but also for seeing the huns greet about never having him away to set up a separate Bologna thread.

Here to enable disruption

I know we originally were gonna stick with the single thread for the league cup, but Panda broke that last time out Feeling more optimistic than at the start of the week? Aye, do I think we’ll win? not convinced. I still need to watch the highlights from yesterday but by most accounts it sounded like we were decent until the final stages. The new manager has them playing with a bit of confidence, but there are still weaknesses there for us to exploit. Hopefully they come at us as we definitely play better against sides that’s do. out bed bed lamb and calf day 2-1 dons, miovski and Clarkson

Anyone feeling a wee bit more optimistic for this one yet?

It was always thus. Quite sure this was a reason why we were all nervous about him getting the gig permanently.

Given our current form, I’m not overly confident for this one. He league table makers for frustrating viewing after yet another failure to capitalise on anything around us. Something needs to change and it’s certainly linked to the excuses that keep getting pedalled by the man in charge. He more than us needs a result of some sort over the next week. I know Robson mentioned he should have rotated the team, guess it may come now. surely we don’t see Duk. It just isn’t happening for him this season for one reason or another. Will we ever see sokler given any real mins? out bed work work 3-1 them, miovski
