The Playoff finals 2018

Decent start to the game at Wembley showing Dubai level temperatures in the direct sunlight, so wonder how long 1) my stream will keep going and 2) how long before players start to melt

.Fulham started more composed but Villa showing more pace & inventiveness now.

Torn because I think we will want Targett to come back and he may not want to IF they go up.

I guess you lot are all busy doing BBQ’ or waiting to be told to sit down by James

Fulham 1 up 22 minutes.

Lovely goal set up by Sessegnon

I like Fulham, If I was forced to give another club a cuddle, it would be them. They’re so nice.

I hope they shit on the Villa.

1-0 Fulham HT. Fully deserved.

I like the way they play certainly wouldn’t look out of place in the EFL.

Terry is off the pace physically and mentally, was probably more focused on playing Chelsea next season than earning the right to play them.

Targett blasted a chance about 100m over the bar so will fit straight back in at Saints…

Walking distance away game at stake for me. No brainer. Even before Terry and Grealish.

Villa have finally turned up

Villa’s Grealish lucky to stay on after an evil tackle on Cairney. Don’t know why the ref didn’t show a straight red.

Fulham’s Odoi sent off for a second yellow…backs against the wall for Fulham.

Red Card Odoi.

Fulham had come back into it, should have scored. Fulham down to 10 men 20 mins to go on a hot day at Wembley could come back into this Villa

Cairney looks like a quality young player.

Been a good game this. Much as I think Villa are a fine old club and it feels weird not having them in the top flight, Fulham play really attractive, ambitious football with some quality young players. That’s what I want to see more of. Hopefully they can hang on.

He is but once again context is important.

He’s surrounded by team mates who will expect and accept a pass when they are marked.

He’s always got an outlet. Still bloody good but the real star is the coach that got them playing that way.

So, round two.

Rotherham v Scunthorpe.

Not exactly setting the pulse ablaze.

From my side the only “interesting” thing I can think of is that there will be a Sky Sports Cricket 'tater hoping the Test match finishes eary or gets rained off - Sir Ian Botham - after he used to play for them back in the day.

Forecast is scattered Thunderstorms from about 1pm in the Wentworth Area moving in that direction - so weather-wise he won’t make it.

Mind you England getting through 5 overs with the new ball are much more likely.

Thoughts?

Obviously tomorrow is more “interesting” to those of us who remember SISU and the pain that Coventry have gone through since their acquisition. And of course, never forget that Exeter were Uri Geler (and then Michael Jackson’s) favourite team.

Yeah. I’m bored again. Waiting on bloody lawyers still
