Of the four the team that I would least like to play against next season would be Brentford.Originally Posted by BLUETIT
Might be a step to far for Barnsley, but you never know, as there is always a dark horse.
Don't know how Bournemouth got in there with the manager they got, but they seem to be the form team
If Brentford fail again, will they sell their stars as they did last season
Forgot who the other team are
Bournemouth have to attack now. They have been holding on for ages
Brentford score - 3-1
3 - 1
10 mins to go
Love it when the time wasters are suddenly desperate to play fast
Seems to have absolutely no awareness of what's around him. Exactly the same for the pen he gave away against Belgium. I hope he's nowhere near the starting XI in the Euros.
FT Brenford in the final.
FT 3 - 1
Brentford going to Wembley.
Great result for Brentford but I can see them losing at Wembley again
I reckon Bournemouth can forget about the Premier League for a very long time if they do don’t go up next season.
Don’t mind who wins a Brentford v Barnsley final, but if it’s the jacks, then I’m a Bees fan!
I watched it up until just before 14:00 and thought that Bournemouth could have won right up until Mepham's cheating. I'm not a fan of Mepham when he plays for Wales let alone against us or anyone else. He's an accident waiting to happen from a strategic point of view and if there's a 50:50 decision you can pretty much guarantee he'll make the wrong one.
Should there be a change in the rules where the referee has the discretion to award a penalty in situations like that? How would we feel if it happened against us and the opposition went on to win? It's one of those that taking one for the team (as I've said - cheating) when an attacking player is through one-on-one seems unfair. I know there's no guarantee that the attacking player would score but that goes for a penalty too. We've had this rule in football for (?) but the game and players have changed, that's without throwing money and betting into the mix. There's a rule which states that if a foul is initiated outside the box, and then continues inside the box (i.e. initial contact is made just outside the box and contact continues into it) a penalty can be awarded. So it's not such a crazy idea.
Of course, this could be a rubbish idea and I may be wrong about the current rules. It would be interesting to hear yours and anyone else's thoughts.
Gabor Gyepes was hailed as a hero for doing what Mepham did today in that game with Leicester from 2010 I think it was, the difference being that we won and Gyepes’ foul probably saved an equalising goal whereas Mepham will be remembered by many Bournemouth fans as the man who cost them a place in the PlayOff Final. I like Mepham, but he’s had a poor season and looks to me like a footballing defender who has lost his confidence - Lawrence did well against the Czech Republic and, if Wales decide to go with Ben Davies as one of their back three, I can see Mepham missing out.
As for giving a penalty for the sort of foul Mepham committed? Why not, maybe the thought of being doubly punished would make players think again before doing it.
Yes, that was another rugby tackle. I wasn't at the game as I was living in London and didn't get back to Cardiff very often back then but I think the real heroes were our 10 (plus subs) remaining players for hanging on. There have been way too many instances though when taking one for the team hasn't been punished enough.
Re. Wales, I agree with you about Lawrence and that it's probably a confidence thing with Mepham. It'll be interesting to see what the preferred formation turns out to be.
Barnsley have no composure at all. Make us look like a passing side
1-0 Swansea, fantastic strike from Grimes
Game over. Barnsley are useless
This must be the fifth or sixth time I’ve watched a Barnsley match this season and I’ve still not seen anything to suggest how they finished as high up the table as they did.
They did so because, on the whole, the standard of the division this season was genuinely awful.
Jacks are going up and they more than deserve it.
We just need to get used to it. End of.
Nah Brentford will beat themJacks are going up and they more than deserve it.
We just need to get used to it. End of.
I hope your right, but I am fearing the worst.
Swansea will win courtesy of a last-minute penalty resulting from an Andre Ayew dive.
It's inevitable.
Why? They’ve been dogshite for ages
But nowhere near as Dogshite as City!
Can't believe how poor Barnsley have been, considering where they finished.
Still think Brentford will beat Swansea. They're different class.
Boom
1 - 1
Come on you Reds
