Barcelona failed an appeal back in 2016.

Ranieri has also gone into his shell of stubborness once more, we've seen it before from him. If a tactic/formation doesn't work ten times, try an eleventh

The highs and lows of Monday morning, after some gardening activity time to relax with a mug of coffee and catch the news, first item" Lady Muck" resigns, out the chair running round the living room before dearly beloved pointed out its not us but Phillip Green's holding co.

Too make matters worse were away to City on Wednesday night, on the brighter side Chelsea entertain Spurs, that might prove interesting with two managers certainly feeling "The Pressure" hoping for a 10pm meltdown from them.

I'm sure I heard one of the commentators say during extra time in the League Cup final that, come Wednesday evening, it might be to our advantage that City had had to play for so long only a few days earlier.

So it might just be 3-0 instead of 5-0.

And Lennon replacing him at Celtic.

All within 24 hours

It should make us laugh, as we accept the scheming and posturing from any Club's PR.
Brenda was at Leicester's game v Brighton ~ last night ~ and he spoke to the media about Leicester expecting 'exciting things on the horizon',,, almost at the same moment that Lennon said "it's an honour" to return to Celtic.Lennon is the original 'walk-out-manager'...so big things ?

Am I the only soul without a Tardis ? All this between me dog's morning walk and late afternoon gambol ? ?

When was the last time the Hammers won 5-0 AWAY ?
