As a purist - no its awful news.

As a realist, if it get the stadium built at some point in my lifetime then its just something to live with.

Last day of the Football League Season today (play-offs to come).

Let's hope Preston North End can make it back into the second-tier of English football.

Well done to the mighty Pilgrims for making it to the play-offs in League 2

Plymouth Argyle AFC

Cool. [:)]

When I played football manager games I usually managed Portsmouth or Plymouth.

Well that fell flat..... [&:] The Play-Offs it is then...

[warspite1]

...and yet another League title for Jose Mourinho.

[warspite1]

Good luck in the play-offs to:

- Brentford
- Preston North End or Sheffield United (either would be good)
- Plymouth Argyle
- Grimsby Town

[Orm]

So how did it go?

[warspite1]

Mixed bag...

- Brentford lost 2-1 at home in the semi-final first leg
- Preston are through to the final [:)] but the Blades are 2-1 down after their semi-final first leg
- Plymouth lost at home 3-2 in their semi-final first leg
- Grimsby Town are through to the final [:)]

30-years ago today.

The Bradford 56 RIP [:(]

[terje439]

Feeling sad.
Captain Fantastic will play no more games at Anfield as a Liverpool player.
One of the "great generation" of English footballers for sure, and a player that has in many ways become the club. Add his loyalty to the club, and all I can do is [&o]

[warspite1]

End of an era. I think he made the right decision - or better still should have gone last year. I can understand why he didn't what with the Champions League return, but let's be honest he has been nowhere near his best this season and in some games has been a bit of a liability.

Great player for Liverpool FC and England.

[terje439]

Oh yeah, he is past his prime (has been for three seasons imo), yet, as you say, end of an era.

[warspite1]

Well this is not going well.....

Grimsby Town lose the Conference Play-Off Final on penalties [:(].

Congratulations to Bristol Rovers on their return to the football league.

Better luck next year Grimsby Town and Torquay United.

Torquay United.

That is the team I used to play as when I played CM/FM and was done playing LIverpool.
All due to John Cleese and Fawlty Towers ofc [:D]

That has to be one of the best - and certainly the most original reason for supporting a team! [&o] [&o]

[warspite1]

End of the footie season[:(].... I hate the end of the footie season [:(]. No World Cup or European Cup as a time filler either....

Still there is one consolation; the team I support and those I have an interest in - at least they won't let me down every flipping week over the summer - well except in the transfer market of course [:D]

Only one winner out of 4 in the play-offs sadly. Well done to the Invincibles:

Preston North End [:)] Good luck in the Championship next year.
