Beaut of a goal as well and it's his first goal for France.

Didn't seem worth a new thread for this one. There's a brief mention and photo of Reading players playing netball in the 1930s as part of a wider attempt to make training more interesting and less routine in the 1920s and 1930s.

I should have put them in the Very Ex Players thread.

Rolling back the clock a bit… Junior H scores (assisted by Jordan O), then provides an assist for Hibs third

Yeah, I know, it’s jockland

Things not so peachy on Humberside. Whilst the daggers aren't necessarily out for Selles, there are a couple of familiar observations in there.

That is a little bit mad to my mind. Everything I'd seen suggested he was doing alright. They were consistent before he arrived.

Quick count gave me
before W3 D6 L10
after W8 D5 L9

Anyway.

Anyway.

Their form is largely mid table since he's arrived....they haven't been able to pull away from the bottom of the table as all the sides down there are picking up points.

They have 44 points from 41 games, we stayed up more than once on less than that after 46.

It was the "conceding quickly after half time" comment that raised my interest mostly.

Maybe that just happens a lot with struggling teams.

I watched some of their game last night, they weren’t very good. Did manage to battle to a point against a good Cov side in the end but they could have lost by 3 or 4

Didn’t seem to be any real identity about them which suprised me. Not a lot of energy either

I think they’ll just about stay up but it’ll be close
