Nice win for crystal palace in the fa cup

Play off finals this Bank Holiday weekend and that will bring the 2024/25 season to a close. We are still waiting for a new manager etc.

Lost to the Buddies...

Final game of season, at home to The Dons.
They took the lead and as usual didn't hang on to it, with two goals giving us the win and forth place, swapping places with Aberdeen.
Qualifies us for Europe, though given the number of players leaving and qualifiers starting in July we are unlikely to have a bedded in team by then.

Dundee won 2-0 away and so were safe.
They fired their manager the next day. No team came close to giving away so many goals as the Dees, 77!!!

Another interesting stat
All but one club committed 5 fouls per booking, give or take a fraction of 5.

Celtic got a booking every 10.4 fouls!!
Very odd.

Celtic Aberdeen Scottish Cup final on Saturday.
Sheep have no chance.

My two old gaffers working together at Coldham through to the play off final in the National league.I
Beating the favourites York 3-0.
Find out tomorrow who they play.

Would be happy if Spurs win and Villa and Forest qualify for the CL.

Heart over head, as always.

Southend. Even after the disaster they have bounced back. Won after penalties.

That should be a good one Oldham v Southend. I'd like to see Oldham seeing as they are a Northern team win that one. If I was a gambling man which I aint I'd put money on Sheff Utd, Charlton and Walsall to win and get promoted.

Prem plays to a finish this weekend. Man Utd have had a diabolical season and what a shame they didn't get relegated lol.

It has to be Oldham.
For my own personal reasons.
so many of my ex colleagues there.
and it would be great to see them at PP again.

Sheffield Utd very unlucky to have their 2nd goal disallowed. VAR revealed an infringement. It's 1-1 now at present.

 

[johnboy412000]

Sunderland are promoted to the Prem for the first time since 2017. Bit gutted that Sheff Utd didn't make. I bet they are sickened especially as that goal was disallowed. Meanwhile up in Scotland Aberdeen and Celtic have gone in to ET.
Tomorrow it's the League one play offs.

He was clearly interfering and the referee mentioned offside as well.
I'm so glad that Sunderland won.
I believe they will need a complete new squad.
Some real shocks in the one off games especially Aberdeen winning.

BBC Scotland doesn't really know how to handle a non Old Firm win, especially when one of them are the losing side. Awful coverage.

Great for Aberdeen, not so good for Hibs and United as they get bumped down in the Europe competitions. Aberdeen replace HIbs in the automatic league stage.

Rangers still struggling to find a manager...

 

[johnboy412000]

Charlton beat Leyton Orient 1-0 and go marching on in to the Championship. That just leaves the 2nd Division play off final tomorrow and the National League on 1st June and that's the 2024/25 season done.

Yeah we are still to appoint a manager. Some people speculated about Wayne Rooney but I really hope we don't get sadly with that plonker.

 

[johnboy412000]

Wimbledon won so we play them next season. Interesting. Just the National League to come on Saturday and that's your lot.

Shocking scenes in the city centre, as a car ploughs into crowds.I
Horrifying.

Oh right have just read this and I'm horrified. Thankfully nobody died but god knows how many were injured or to what extent.

Huddersfield Town have appointed Lee Grant as their new manager on a three-year deal. The 42-year-old joins from Ipswich Town, where he was first-team coach for the past three years.

The former goalkeeper has taken on his first managerial role with the Terriers, having joined the Tractor Boys’ coaching setup following his retirement from playing.

At last we have a new manager. Let's hope he does us some good and hopefully over the summer we'll have some new signings.

 

[johnboy412000]

Oldham return to the League football. That wraps up this seasons footy. New forum will begin when the fixtures come out later this Month. Have a great Summer every and take good care.

Cheers mate.
I am so pleased for my former colleagues who were at Wembley today. And just shows what a great manager MM is.
What is the betting that we will play them first game of the season?
