Next season will be our 11th consecutive Championship season. I don’t think any of the current teams has been in the Championship longer. I wonder what the longest stint in the second tier has been - and was said stint ended by a promotion or a relegation.
I don’t wanna give it the ITK bollox and I really shouldn’t be posting this but this is gold dust.
This summer we’re taking part in the Sakhalin Invitation Tournament - widely know as the Ibiza Cup of the East.
Fixtures confirmed are Torpedo Roppongi, Pyongyang Casuals, and Busan Sarandon. Then we’re back home for mouth watering friendlies against Cheltenham & Wimbledon. Finishing with a trip to Hanwell Town where we unveil our new origami-inspired away kit.
Blackpool evening game. One of my favourite goals. Some people call it a fluke. I was sitting upper SA Road right in line with the flight of the crossfield pass to Buzz. A genius bit of quick footed improvisation. He meant it.
Did I imagine this or didn’t we play an evening game circa 2008 home to Charlton where we had made an emergency loan bid for Heiðar Helgusson (from Watford?) but so had Charlton and in a typical madcap QPR scenario no one was 100% if he was going to turn out for us, Charlton, or neither. It might have been that the deal wasn’t done or he was a sub because Wiki is saying he made his debut at Wolves.
2 other players who were either loans or otherwise but for me had criminally short Rs careers were Jordi Lopez in 2009 - Sousa brought him in - very classy creative but no nonsense midfield player with a superb free kick. And Dusko Tošić, Balkan paramilitary LB who went on to play in the World Cup for Serbia.
Fux ake surely we shouid have included an emergency recall clause in the event he’s any good and gets near twenty goals while all our first team forwards are certified dead. I mean emergency goalkeepers are permitted. England are allowed an emergency German manager.
