Pure, undiluted joy.

Don't get me wrong. I bleed red 100%. But, I will admit to thoroughly enjoying some time as a Spurs fan, if only for an hour, or two, this afternoon…

Eintracht Frankfurt. Fuck me

Luton are in the Championship play offs (Semi final, first leg) this evening. We're punching above our weight in the division in terms of financials so it's a great achievement.

Having watched Luton play against part-time teams in the Conference, it's amazing to see. The screengrab shows what we're up against!

I had the pleasure of watching Luton on TV for the first time 2 weeks ago - they lost 7-0.  Hoping for a result for you this week, as long as you come for a beer after work that is

Probably still more pleasurable than watching United… [emoji38]

@neph93 sadly you are not wrong  :D.  I think even Liverpool fans don't find it funny anymore, its just sad how bad we are

You are entirely correct. The Moyes debacle was hysterical, ending the Mourinho stint was a wonderful moment, but the Solskjær experiment ending up being just sad. The whole lack of direction and catalogue of terrible decision making by the board is a grim reminder of how bad it can get when you have owners who don’t give a shit. I hope things turn around for your boys.

Also, Up the Hatters.

American "football": the sport that's so dumb it calls itself by a body part that touches the ball for microseconds per game.
