    Why the Birmingham link. Bowyer slated Taylor in public and as we know, he is stubborn. I would be surprised if bowyer ever wanted him again. 

    Would taylor drop to league 1 with Birmingham? His next move will be somewhere like Luton where he can be the main man again. 
    Not much difference between Taylor and Bowyer both tefused to see out their contracts
    Not really... We were lining up a replacement for bow who could come in straight away... Taylor left us when we couldn't replace him in any way and when we needed him most. 

    Or we were lining someone up for when we sacked Bowyer
    So who were we lining up to play the last games of the season instead of Taylor? The two departures are completely different.

    Because USA is not a red list country - provided negative COVID test you can come into UK

    World Cup Qualifying probably with Montserrat, they're playing two games in Curacao... Same as the likes of Lewandowski etc are allowed to come over to England for their games and dont have to worry about self-isolating for the required number of days after
  • Why would Taylor leave Forest,no one would match his wages,and he considers football is just a job.So who out of us would turn down the chance to get 15-20k a week for doing nothing.
    forest might be happier letting someone else have him and only contribute some of his wage.

    if he isn't getting a game it's be better to let him leave and only be paying him 5k rather than paying his full wage

    With all due respect who cares
    well, you obviously...

    seriously though, I was answering a question not actually caring what happens to the bloke

    I am pretty sure they would love to unload him,but his actions at Charlton will bite him on the arse,no one will take him even for a reduced amount,he is a busted flush.

    2 goals (1 a pen ) for everyone’s favourite ex Addick in a World Cup qualifier today against Antigua and Barbuda, ended  2-2

    Survived the training pitch then?

    Judas cnut!
    I heard he got stung by a giant stingray after jumping into the seas to celebrate actually scoring a goal.

    Assuming that’s a pretty good result for Montserrat (based solely on my assumption that Antigua must be a bigger island).

    Very good result... Montserrat are ranked 183rd in the world... Antigua are 126th

    They've also got El Salvador (69th), Grenada (159th) and US Virgin Islands (207th) in their Group

    They lost both games against El Salvador (2-0 | 1-0) in the CONCACAF Nations League a few years ago although might be a bit of a grudge match for Montserrat as they missed out on a place in the Gold Cup (the North American Euros) to El Salvador on Goal Difference, only there was debate that the latter had used a suspended player in their last game

    Need to win their Group to stand a chance of advancing to the final round (where the likes of Mexico and United States await) but even if they finish top of their group they'll have to play one of the other five Group winners from this current stage if they want to advance.

    Its the same scenario for Liam Millar and Canada who face Bermuda today
  • 5k compared to 98k population 
    Does population matter? How many of the squads are made up of local players? I’m guessing lots of squads are made of of conference level players using grandparents island of birth to play internationally football and an expenses few days away
  • Don't think population is all that important, more the extent of football culture - eg China, India aren't as good as you would expect for the population!

    Doesnt help either that Montserat had that Volcano erruption in 1995 - Wiki says that two-thirds of the population was forced to flee to primarily to the United Kingdom leaving just 1,200 on the island.

    Studied that in Secondary School

    Crazy who you look into it at how much of the island is in the exlcusion zone now with the old Capital: Plymouth now a ghost town

    About 20 players out of their 23 man squad play in England, mostly for non league teams (including the likes of Erith Town and Sevenoaks!)
  • Scored again last night. A 90th minute equaliser in a 1-1 draw with El Salvador.
  • Sounds like Montserrat could give Ireland a run for their money!

    Montserrat's population has been decreasing ever since Soufirere Hills volcano went off, I think. So it isn't a sustainable national team.

    Edit. Just checked, halved since 1990 to 5 000 people
