European football 2018/19 - Page 78 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

Happens all the time though. Team performs below expectation (or whatever the fans expect), leading to fat blokes coming up with narratives about how the manager has lost the dressing room and so on. The execs then get worried about the loss of revenue when this narrative starts to become the truth amongst the majority of supporters, so the manager has to take the fall. New guy comes in, team performs at expectation, new narratives are written.

That should be Paderborn done, but surely too much for Union to do at Bochum

My theory is right. Every evidence that goes against my theory, even if acknowledged and touted by myself, proves my theory right.

He must've really hit the books and improved his coaching smarts in the interim.

With credit to reddit user CeterumCenseo85. There's just no middle ground with Paderborn.

While checking oddschecker to see what return on my investment I can get on the inevitable redline to continue that graph, betway oddly have buyern at 8/13 to win it again compared to 1/6 at the only other place that's got a market up - that's getting palped more often than Inzaghi was offside, isn't it?

So if I'm reading this right, de Graafschap are in the relegation playoffs against Cambuur, and, er, the de Graafschap manager has already signed on to manage Cambuur next year... that won't be rigged at all

According to this Glubb would've had the playoff spot. But I couldn't claim with a straight face that we deserved to stay up lol. Also Dortmund running hot, deserved championship for Bayern it seems.

Italy still totally rigged right? If so betting Atalanta to not win this weekend so Inter and Milan make the CL seems like free money
