Guten Bonjola and welcome back to Gijon, where we are still in two cups and occupy the all important “best of the rest” spot in the table. It’s the run in, which is a hefty 17 league games plus however far we get in the cups, so let’s get to it.
Bom Dia! and welcome to the final episode with Nick and his Portuguese Wolves, who are struggling in the league, but can still win the League Cup and Champions League for a second time. Will they end this story in style? For the last time, here’s Nick…
You wouldn’t believe we started the season brilliantly and were 2nd after 12 games, but things have gone horribly wrong since. Let’s see if we can finish in a respectable position…
During the first third of my final season with the Clarets we had made a positive start on all fronts. We were top of the league with 28 points from a possible 36 and joint top of Champions League Group E, with seven points from a possible nine.
The first match of episode two is a Clarets Clash, in the League Cup 3rd round. I’ve decided to try and compete on all fronts this year, so we field a full-strength side. Micky Landreau gets himself sent off, and we capitalise, moving comfortably through to round four. It seems a long time ago since the darker days of season three and four, when it felt like we had a player sent off nearly every game.
Hallo, hej, hello! Welcome back. Last time out Zak and his Malmo side had managed to break into the top 2 positions. Which has been quite the shock given Malmo were probably not one of the pre-draw favourites. But they have proved reliable and consistent so far.
First up, thankfully, it’s the league.
Bonjola and welcome back to Spain, where Sporting Gijon are accelerating my descent to grey hair. Or maybe that should be ascent, it could be a positive. I’ll let you know. Anyway, the once-worst-team-in-Spain are coming off the back of a third place finish, so now we have the small task of hunting down El Clasico competitors. It’s early day yet, I suppose. It’s season 3.
Bom Dia! and welcome to the penultimate episode with Nick and his Portuguese Wolves, who are doing well in pretty much every competition apart from the league. They’ve already secured the World Club Cup, but can they now add the European Super Cup to the cabinet? Here’s Nick…
This is how the table is looking. We were 2nd not so long ago, but after just two wins from our last eight games, we’ve slid all the way down to 7th. The optimist in me says that it’s only the halfway point, so let’s hope better things lie ahead for us this week. Let’s go…
After the disappointment of finishing second to Wiki rivals Leeds we are back for one final season (unless it all goes wrong) to see if we can win the league and maybe some other stuff.
I make two signings over the summer, Martin finally agrees to a bit of Bene and Brazilian Glaucio has been tearing up the Dutch league with Feyenoord.
Hola, Bonjour, Greetings. Welcome back to Spain where Gijon are having a wonderful time in La Liga, establishing themselves as the best of the rest in season 2 and hopefully setting their sights on disrupting the El Clasico duo next. How on earth are we going to do that?
Bom Dia! and welcome back to the eleventh and final season with Nick and his pack of Portuguese Wolves that he’s assembled over the last decade. They’ve made a decent start in the league and Europe so far, but will they take their chance to become world champions? Here’s Nick to update us…
Here’s how the league table is looking after twelve games. We’d be a lot better off if we could just hold onto a lead, but that said, we’re only a point behind Liverpool, so hopefully they won’t be on their perch for long. Let’s go..
Welcome back to the Moor, as we enter the final third of season five the Clarets are still fighting to win their first Premier League and to retain the FA Cup.
The first match of the episode is the FA Cup 5th round tie, away to Wimbledon. Despite some fine saves from Neil Sullivan we manage to make it to the Quarter Finals thanks to Terry and Dangerous numero deux.
