Loaner Report 11/2
By: timmyg |In a rather bizarre twist, Elliot Omosuzi was loaned out to Charlton Athletic. Despite the fact that he was reportedly released over the summer.
The offal says he is “still registered” with the club. And according to Charlton’s offal:
Although technically recruited on a month’s loan from Fulham, England U19 international Omozusi is out of contract [...]
Loaner Report 10/26
By: timmyg |Adam Watts started and played 90 minutes in Lincoln City’s 0-0 draw with Torquay United on Saturday. Watts’ loan deal was set to expire at the end of October, but Imps manager Chris Sutton was able to extend the deal until January 2.
Fredrik Stoor started and played 61 minutes in Derby County’s 4-2 loss to [...]
Checking the books
By: timmyg |A 1-1 draw in Sofia coupled with Roma losing 2-0 in Basel is a good way to start off the Europa League Group Stages.
I can’t comment on the match too much, other than what’s seen in these highlights, but it appeared we were unfortunate to go down thanks to a good strike from Michel Platini [...]
Looking ahead to the edge of Europe
By: timmyg |Any thoughts Roy may change things up on Thursday against Amkar Perm will be boosted after today’s reserves lost 3-0 to Arsenal reserves.
The lineup of Etheridge; Marsh-Brown, Anderson, Briggs, Smalling; Saunders, Harris, Moscatiello, Smith; Hoesen, Uwezu shows what I mean.
Even Smalling, Eddie Johnson, or Andranik didn’t make the short trip to Underhill. Perhaps McKinlay wanted [...]
The reserve friendly that wasn’t, and kits.
By: timmyg |Last week I commented that the reserves were taking on the Uzbekistan U-20 National Team, and that match would be the last tune up before opening day.
But then today the offal announces this:
Supportes should note that the Reserve Team match against the Uzbekistan U20 national team at Motspur Park, Kick-Off 1pm, is a behind [...]
Our lad in Turku
By: timmyg |Seems the TPS fans in Turku, Finland have taken warmly to Wayne Brown, and are sad to see him leave on August 16.
More (great) info from Nordic Football, replete with gushing quotes from the loanee about his stay:
“Please don’t take my Wayne Brown away” is the last line of a TPS supporters’ chant composed to [...]
Start the clocks
By: timmyg |Recently back from AmeriCorps orientation, fresh off the first day on the job of fighting poverty, and counting down the days until the season starts.
Which is just under a fortnight away.
All the preseason friendlies are over for the first team, as the scheduling powers decided to focus on the Europa League. And thanks to the [...]
catching up
By: timmyg |So Bobby Zamora is staying, Peter Crouch isn’t coming, Peterborough almost win after being down 3-0, and the reserves squeak by Aldershot.
Been a busy 24-plus hours! Where to start?
Well, according to the News of the World, Hodgson said Zamora rejected terms with Hull. Whether that’s before or after he scored a brace against Peterborough [...]
aimless summer nights
By: timmyg |After a relatively successful trip to Australia, the tune up for the Europa League began in earnest this evening…
Against Bournemouth and Woking.
Nevertheless, the first team drew 0-0 with the Cherries and Kamara featured after halftime. The reserves won 4-1 against Blue Square Premier Woking F.C. No details, including who even played, up on the [...]
looking for the news
By: timmyg |Never thought I’d say it, but I really wish the American sports media was covering this club, and game.
Why? Because then I’d have a better idea as to what’s going on at Motspur Park. Excluding the the Australian Tour roster and the “reports” that “link” us to other players, we’re left in the dark as [...]
