I love the English National Team, 2 week breaks for tinpot International friendlies are crap. Whilst I thought one year in Division 3 might be ok, realistically it’s not….. the only positive I can think of is a bit less traffic on a matchday, a much cited positive of being in the 3rd tier is that you still play when International Friendlies are on? The Loch Ness Drogba sitting on the Scotch bench, one of our reserves being in the Irish squad and Xhemajli topping up his Air Miles means we can’t play. We all know that watching Sunderland can ruin your weekend, but not watching Sunderland is 100% worse… it’s just shite.
Up Next ….. Gillingham
We have 7 games left, the games at Oxford and Plymouth stand out, I actually think Gillingham is a huge banana skin, and we are running out of the amount of times we can fall on our arses? Playing Gillingham historically meant a visit from that fat prick, Steve Evans, polar opposite now as they are managed by one of the best men in football, Neil Harris. Match preview this week, but they are very physical and they get the ball in the box a lot, bizarrely I see us winning the tougher away games more than I do having an easy ride against Gillingham, SAFCBlog Preliminary Prediction … SAFC 1 vs GFC 1
Back on track……
20 years this weekend since the release of the best album of this millennium, (game of opinions as always), “International Break My Arse…… Geezers Need Excitement”
