Admin phantom Posted April 14 Admin Report Share Posted April 14 Mary Earps has just pulled off an absolutely ridiculous save Not only saved an effort from nowhere, but stopped the ball and clawed it away all in one movement 50:18 on the clock 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shahanshahan Posted April 14 Report Share Posted April 14 Napier returns from suspension. Stratigakis starts. Struck drops to bench. Layzell, Jones & Furness back in squad but make bench. Harrison missing from squad KO 6.45pm. Live on Sky Sports. I'll try post updates while I'm here at Meadow Park Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Respect to those people who follow the side every week, it must be a very difficult watch Being on TV against Manchester City and Chelsea in the coming weeks the broadcasters clearly won't be getting a great game. Just one side trying to defend and the other scoring at will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
