BRAGGING RIGHTS

Internationals, but I thought I would keep it to 10 matches.Playing Friday: Czech Rep vs Wales:  Latvia vs NetherlandsSaturday: Switz vs N.Ireland:  Faroe Is vs Austria: Scotland vs Israel:  Andorra vs England:  Hungary vs Albania: Poland vs San Marino.Sunday UEFA Nations League Final: Belgium orFrance vs Italy or Spain: 3rd Place as before (Semi Finals on Weds and Thurs. Total number of goals could be interesting.

MESSI

Lionel Messi again showed what a great player he is. His goal was made to look simple, a 30m run, a one-two with Kylian Mbappe, and a passs into the top corner. Genius. The only other sports person to show such composure in my opinion was Michael Jordan who seemed to have air hooks when playing basketball.

FOOTBALL WEEK 6

Well the afternoon gets off to a stunning start with Chelsea losing at home to ManC and then ManU losing at home to Villa and missing a late penalty to boot.  Is this the season to be remembered for missed penalties?  Rashford, Sancho, Saka, Antonio (WHU – Newcastle), Nobel (WHU – ManU), Fernandez (ManU – AV).  10 have been scored in the Premiership this season with Calvert-Lewis having scored 2.Will it be Liverpool top at the end of today?  And will Brighton be second on Tuesday morning or even top! if Liverpool lose at Brentford?

FA CUP – GREAVES

Love it – just the names. Winners yesterday were : Pontefract Colleries; Curzon Ashton; City of Liverpool; Radcliffe; Runcorn Linnets; Marske United; Jersey Bulls are going to a replay. Chelmsford are through as are W-s-M. I think I am supporting Runcorn Linnets and Jersey Bulls for the next round.

Football week 4 results

Well none of us in our Bragging Rights Only Competition saw that one coming. Palace thrash Spurs 3-0. several of us had it down as a draw, but 0-3 was not expected. I will wait for half time before adding next comments – 7+ minutes to go.

FOOTBALL

This weeks game for bragging rights has last weeks winner, Maz, going high for total number of goals (like me), whilst Adam and Andy Logan are being more realistic! The average from the results earlier this week would indicate an expected 40 goal total so I reckon me and Maz might have got over optimistic! 8 of the 14 matches have a unanimous agreement on the result. And the FA cup continues, look out for Jersey Bulls, Sporting Khalsa, Runcorn Linnets, Hartley Wintney, warrington Rylands and Oxhey Jets amongst others!
