Likewise! For a bunch of reasons I'd like Cov to get to the final.

Boring and slightly dumb article about my lot: https://www.theguardian.com/football/the-agony-and-the-ecstasy/2018/may/11/paul-tisdale-manager-arsene-wenger-arsenal
I expect a few more of these as Wenger leaves. Once he does, three of the four longest-serving managers in the top 4 divisions will be at fan-owned clubs. One of those is in the play-offs, one's just got promoted and the other (Wimbledon) has survived its first season in League One. There is an interesting piece to be written about this, I think, but the article I've linked is not that piece.

"Like in tennis, we lost one set point and now we must be ready for the next one. I expect in a few weeks we are going to be up."
Jokanovic has done it for Fulham now, it seems wrong talking like that before you've even got through the first 2 legs ffs!

obv that is a pro-beard tweet, but now I'm an established highfalutin prem bigshot - I see it more in an anti-English manager light:P

I assumed it was pleasingly pro-bald.

An old friend of mine (*friend* used in the loosest sense - a horrible bastard I knew is closer to the truth) used to play for Accy Stanley under Coleman back when they where still in the Unibond. He had a story that they beat some scary side of scouse drug-dealers and gangsters and had flee to the coach before getting beaten up. It seemed funny at the time, and strange that Coleman is still in the game and on the way to league 1 "household name" status!

actually for the 2nd time I think. they did us under him in the FA cup when we were L2 and some big P/T fatman called Gouk did a Ronaldinho on us.

Kamara, even. Once you've totally bottled this last year, the nerves are bound to kick in.

I'd blissfully forgotten John fucking Terry was still playing football for a year or so! The serenity has been life affirming etc. Like he was dead and gosh I quite liked that, but it seems he's still hobbling about. Am I supposed to root for Fulham now?

Likewise. When we were booking our holiday I checked the playoff dates and made sure we wouldn’t be away for the playoff final. However I am a dumbass and now I hope to be watching the game from my mother-in-Law’s front room in Illinois.
