    International break

    I really really dont like them, they break up every bit of momentum, regularity and all for a competition designed to make money only, Fans a re not a priority.

    The authorities will never say no to a freebie of junket but its time they started focusing at home.

    I can't recall there being this many, I think they make sense for world cup and euros, but this nations league is just a joke, at a time when there is too much football create another competition for the sole purpose of squeezing out more money, what was wrong with teams just playing friendlies if they choose to.

    I suppose its helped us injury wise but isnt always going to be the case. Definitely far too many of these international breaks.

    Even if it helps us, it does f course also benefit other sides the same so is negated.

    Atleast we've gone into each of them on the back of a positive result

    To depress you even further,from 2026 the September and October breaks are being combined which will mean 4 international matches at the same break.This will mean no domestic top league fixtures for approximately 3 weeks!!!.

    At least if you wanted to, you could have watched Buster Bloodvessel pretending he was Gary Kenneth, and Les Mottram making a comeback, only to miss a ba' being a foot over the line before coming back oot again.

    For future reference ........... ba' MUST hit the back oh' the net , just to make sure.........

    I'm struggling big time with 2 weeks, don't think I'd survive 3
