Mid Week Games

Orient 0-1 Crewe.

Why play injured players. We were OK in the second half but not great.
8th place now, two points off Tranmere in sixth (same as leeds)

so would i, lmao. it'd be a dream come true to be honest.
we needed a goal, but the pitch was really poor so i didnt know how the goal would come. 6 european wins in a row is a pretty good achievement especially in europe, look to the next one now.
coyb!

Well, where else are European wins going to come?

[edible]

who will everton get next if they get threw?

fiorentina or rosenburg.
in times of places to visit, florence is lovely, but they are a good team.
rosenburg, i'm not sure to be honest, norway i think! and if they're anything like sk brann (both norwegian) then y'know.

Europe obviously, but there are some good teams outside of England, ones hard to beat and we've beat them, so without our best players etc!

both sides are fairly decent

be a tougher test than brann

Rosenborg drew with Chelsea on the night that Mourinho left but had a bad season and came 5th. Fiorentina aren't a bad team. They ended up in Serie D one year, for some reason, and have come back to Serie A. They are having a good season and are 4th in Serie A

Carlisle Youth 0-2 Aston Villa Academy

A very entertaining game tonight. Villa took the lead on 7 minutes when Forrester cut in from the left wing and curled a shot into the top right corner. 2 minutes later it was 2-0 when Bannan slotted home a penalty after Collins was brought down. It didn't really look like a penalty as he'd already knocked the ball a long way past our defender.Villa should have made it three in stoppage time but an open goal was missed and put over the bar.
We had chances, but the better team definitely won. Hindmarch nearly scored late on but it was a good performance and for us to get to the quarter finals is a brilliant effort. Crowd of 1744 was a lot higher than expected too.
