With Stroud-Collins Airways hamstrung for the next few weeks, thankfully Joe Mixon returned to deliver for my Texans on the ground.
Fantastic to be 5-1, but just a Net Pts total of +8. Even the 1-5 Patriots put 21 points on us.
In an underwhelming AFC South (I've said that a few times over...
I was going to post similar yesterday, but you've done all the work for me.
Have done the very same more times than I can remember. Brunch/Drunch for 4 people used to be the top prize in the Tuesday quiz night in the Movenpick, JBR. We had an ok team and there wasn't a whole lot of...
A little unconvincing at the back, but another game won by 2 clear goals. That's 3 out of 4 now under Carsley.
Beat Greece and it'll be back to the top of the table, GD permitting.
Today at least, job very much done.
Really need at least one more goal.
Nothing cavalier, but the pressure that comes with dominating possession should bring the chance for at least one more.
65% possession so far for England.
Admittedly a bit sloppy in the last 10-15 minutes, but England have shown they can open up the Finnish defence with a couple of passes.
Won the first 2 games by 2 clear goals. No reason why they can't do the same today.
It looks like normal service has been resumed. Thursday night was just a one-off.
More goals for England in this one to restore the confidence before Athens on 14th November.

I was there and at the Finland game in September - it was much more full on Thursday night.
Ireland in November is likely to be a sellout regardless as it's at the weekend.
Time to put Thursday's performance to bed now.
Here's hoping we get back to winning ways.
(In the absence of a dedicated thread to date, I thought I'd use this one!)
Edit: And as if by magic, one appears! Thanks @Weststander (y)
How much importance we place on other people's opinions, sartorial or otherwise, might be key here.
We spend too much time worrying about what other people think of us.
They're far too busy thinking about what we think of them to do that.
NSC has consistently wished Aaron Connolly every success throughout his career, and especially so when he was with us.
NSC is in no way responsible for the way Aaron Connolly's career has turned out.
In the build up to major competitions like WC2026, it's always preferable to test yourself against the better teams.
Despite their thoroughly deserved victory last night, Greece didn't qualify for the Euros. Nor did Ireland or Finland, England's other NL opponents.
So it's far better for...
Well, I was at Wembley and it's fair to say that it wasn't great. Greece were the better team, looked far more dangerous and fully deserved the win.
Clearly the Foden / Palmer / Gordon trio didn't work - at halftime I was hoping that we'd immediately revert after the break to a defined...

The Greek football community is in shock. The news of Baldock's sudden death plunged the country into mourning. The members of the Greek national team - who are currently in London as they're facing England on Thursday night - are struggling to believe the tragic...
