PaulHartman71 Posted August 12, 2017 Author Share Posted August 12, 2017 86th minute: Wednesday are breaking late on. Can they find an equaliser? Sloma running down the left flank, he's got Scholl in the middle, it's Scholl now who can have a shot from distance or try to find Korczowski ahead of him... IT'S INTO KORCZOWSKIIIIII... but he just can't keep it down! Was that the chance?! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulHartman71 Posted August 12, 2017 Author Share Posted August 12, 2017 91st minute: Not long left on the clock for Wednesday to find a goal. Millar has it at the back for Hull, he passes it back to Littlefair in goal... he hits it up the pitch but it's only as far as Korczowski... he plays a nice ball forward for O'Sullivan... O'Sullivan can pick out Andreas as ahead of him...it's ANDREAS PAPOUTSOGIANNOPOLOUS...GOAAAAAAAAL!!!! The Greek striker has put his side level right at the death!

He's looking to get a cross into the box... it goes into the box, there's a scuffle, the keeper is on the floor, the referee's blown his whistle is that a free kick for West- NO! He's given a penalty!! Ohh incredible scenes here, because Sheffield Wednesday have a golden chance to take an early lead! Mario Korzwoski steps up to take this one. He's already the top scorer in the Championship this season, can he add another one here, that would put his side in with a great chance of playing in the Premier League next season... OHHHHH AND IT'S GONE PAST THE KEEPER BUT INSTEAD OF FLYING INTO THE TOP CORNER ITS HIT THE UPRIGHT AND COME BACK OUT!!!

Squad Korczowski the stand out player with 29 goals and 14 assists in all competitions, he won the Championship Golden Boot and Top Scorer. He somehow didn't have the most difficult name to say in the team, with his strike partner, Andreas Papoutsogiannopoulous ending the campaign with 19 goals and 19 assists.

PaulHartman71 Posted August 15, 2017 Author Share Posted August 15, 2017 Marcus Llorente had a fantastic first season at Man United, as he won the Premier League. Chelsea ended up 4th but they sacked Vedran Corluka mid-season despite back to back Champions League wins, they replaced him with Bayern's Andre Ayew and it was actually Corluka who replaced Ayew at Bayern. Hugo Lloris got sacked by Real Madrid a few seasons back, but he got the last laugh as his PSG side beat them in the Champions League final this season. Maidenhead's maiden season in the Football League ended in disappointment as they finished rock bottom and went back down to the Conference. The Conference did see some interesting stuff though. Bideford finally managed to win promotion to League 2 after their tycoon-induced rise had mellowed off with 4 years of Conference limbo. They only did it through the Playoffs though, as the surprise package and winners were actually Cove F.C, who have now won 6 straight promotions ffs I've got no idea how they've managed this as there's no hint of a Tycoon, they've even had the same manager the whole time, so fair play to that man: He's only 38 and will get to manage in League 2 next year 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulHartman71 Posted August 20, 2017 Author Share Posted August 20, 2017 September We made short work of Exeter in the 3rd round, with David Brown grabbing a hat-trick. A tough trip to the Olympic Stadium saw us lose 2-0 and I thought that was us back down to reality, but since then we've got two hard fought victories against QPR and Norwich to keep our good start alive. If the season could end now please that would be lovely... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
