I'm always interested in the team formation. It's not a static thing within a game - defending and attacking shapes are obviously different - and it can also change from game to game. But, there is usually a basic shape in which teams set up.
What formation do people think Marti's using of late? It's changed from 4231 to either 433 or 4141. What do people think?
Just gone on the online box office to buy a ticket for my Grandson for Sheff Wed. All seemed fine, well not that fine, I paid for it expecting an email to confirm with ticket but nothing. Horrible feeling that although its eticket its going to be posted to me and I won't be at that address before the match. Or does it take a while to come through? Sorry if this is a stupid question I normally phone in but they shut before 4pm today
Hi all, thought I'd ask the LFW collective of any thoughts on a game abroad and if anyone had any recommendations of great sites/companies to book through and just as importantly to avoid.
It's been a long term aim of main to see a game aboard and as I have some Basque heritage (one of the Spanish lot that moved to Notting Hill) am, thinking I'll get myself to an Athletic Bilbao game... anyone on here made that trip or similar to La Liga...
Don't post much these days - greetings to the old timers on here who remember me from days of yore! Anyhoo, I got my tickets for Plymouth earlier in the week - it'll be my first QPR game since the Leeds promotion day back in 2011 when we were all waiting on the verdict of the Faurlin inquiry thing which was announced before kick off. Only my second football match since then (popped to Truro City vs Enfield earlier this season for another day of nostalgia). Don't really watch much football these days but, seeing as I now live in Cornwall, thought it would be silly not to. Bringing AlbJnr numbers 3 and 4. You know what? I'm quite looking forward to it!!
Those of a certain age on here will remember these places dotted in their legion all over the UK.
Working class peoples living in their concrete esso parrafin asphalt jungles could get together to escape the 24/7 knuckle duster of life and the slow motion riot of the 238 bus to the local injection moulding factory for their 8-4 shift , and have a few pints of Long life and a double diamond in the local labour/conservative/lib dem club .
I remember the West ham working mens club , Blokes in pringles and wexmans at the bar, Their women at the tables knocking back skol white top while he club secretary in his knock off Eton Rifle regimental blazer badge sculpted in bullion wire with hand-finished embroidery , was flogging raffle tickets for a beano to Thorpe bay to a pissed up joyus crowd. An organic collective of people who share a bond.
The word 'community' to me has been rendered down over the years . imo Working mens clubs are at the heart of the 'community'.
Well, today i joined one. These Dojo's of working class culture for good or bad are dying out.
