Steve Vickers appreciation post. The man has been exceptional.
A fully fit squad for the first time in a long time. And results are starting to go our way.
The playoffs might be a realistic aim.
Continue readingHello and welcome back to 30 for 30. We are into season 29 which i sincerely hope is the last one! We’ve been to Morton, Coventry, Motherwell, Palace, Man Utd back to Palace, Arsenal and Rangers. It took us 20 seasons to win a top trophy but then we won the lot in Glasgow. So let’s do this one final time and get to that coveted last screen on CM 97/98.

Welcome back to “Brits Abroad”, a series where I’m trying to build an entirely British team at Benfica and hopefully dominate the game. So far, that hasn’t really been the case, but it’s early days in the grand scheme of things and we’re firing on three fronts as you join us in part 6. Who thought we’d get as far as a 6th part? I know I didn’t. Anyway, it’s the end of season 2 and we have it all to play for. So let’s get to it…At the end of the last update Sporting Lisbon took us to a replay back at our place in the Portugese cup. The time for that replay…is now.
Monaco? Yes you read that right.
What’s going on? I’ll tell you. Talking shit, as per, with my butty @thetynter, and this blog pops up. I was telling him about Trade guy who hates skateboarders bla bla bla. And he already knows about it. In fact. He knows a lot more than I do.
So apparently (I’m not fact checking, where’s the fun in that) After the skateboarder confrontation incident at the Mumbles, there was a public response. Not a good one. It created a movement. It was called ‘Beep for Bellend.’
I’ve just looked at the league table.
A silly mistake.
In a bad mood before I even start.
Before we enter the ship (yes I said Ship) show of the league, let’s have an FA Cup tie against Bury to Shake things up…
It was not a classic.
Hello and welcome back to 30 for 30. We are nearly there with this challenge which has been epic and draining all in one. Last season was a real come down. We went from all conquering to losing it all. This season is about redemption.

Our All-Out-Attack warriors are on a mission from God, and the day after his only son’s birthday, we’re off to Brechin.
Lovely to see you all this morning. Let’s enjoy today’s entirely new post.
Welcome back. Who thought we’d get as far as part 5? Not me, and not Brian Deane. I thought we’d be mid table by now but we’re actually better than that, I think I overestimated much of the Portuguese league. Anyway, we sit 4th and still in Europe, so let’s get on with it.
Back in the action then after the International break and we labour to a 1-0 win.
May the fourth be with you, always.
Let’s take stock of where we are.
