On This Day in 1962
Les Brown fires home the first goal as the Dons take their first ever Football League scalp, defeating Third Division Colchester United 2-1 in a thrilling FA Cup tie at Plough Lane. Despite conceding most of the possession to their professional opponents, the hosts were ruthless in front of goal leaving United boss Benny Fenton to admit; "Wimbledon were the better side on the day and took their few chances in grand style. We didn't and paid the penalty."

Given Arsenal made last season’s final you have to, however begrudgingly because their football is as bad as their weird breed of online fans, accept they could well be right now up there as amongst the top teams in Europe. Arteta’s fault that they lost the final he’s been watching too many Tuchel/AFCW tutorials on holding a lead.

I wouldn’t put Barcelona in that top list at the moment. Villa have just shot themselves in the foot and then been pretty average tonight. They’re well below the level.
Bloody hell CW just seen where Rotherham are. Feel like they shouldn’t be at risk of being non-league but a quick check suggests their average attendance isn’t significantly higher than ours.

Also feel they have been tainted by the Steve Evans thing but can’t hold that against every club he’s managed. Or can we…
Sadly I think Paris are now clear but Arsenal are the level of the other three with probably the best defence of any of them and the worst attack.

Reckon Barca, Real, PSG & Bayern are just a level above the likes of Arsenal & Man City (the best of the rest?)

Some interesting discussions on the Barnsley Forum but I can't see much about the reasons for their poor form. What's a 'Pie Lark'? [Link]

Anyone know what’s going on at Barnsley this season(so far)? Always seen them as an upper L1 club that might occasionally enjoy a season in the championship.

Second bottom right now
That’s exactly it. Even before Villa took the goal kick you could see Barcelona had them boxed in and were going to press hard. They could do that because they know Villa don’t mix it up.

Bayern and Atletico are managing it better, mixing the playing out with the punt upfield. Olise probably has the best first touch in football at the moment.

great game
The playing out from the back thing is so weird - the fact that it fails so frequently even at the very highest level surely makes it very obvious that it should be avoided at our level at all costs…

Villa get a big Champions League night out in Barcelona and quickly give away one of these modern goals where they try and pass it out from their own 6 yard box at a goal kick, mess it up and give away the softest goal.

 [82.lo.gg.ed] 
If they’d succeeded in passing it out from their own 6 yard box I doubt they’d have scored. I don’t understand why managers feel this is a valid risk vs reward. A goal down and absolutely humiliating for the players involved.
I would ask nicander to summarise what it said but I don’t want him to brutally cut his own head off whilst shaving.

Speaking of Leigh Park, just finished a book from one of its more talented sons, Roland Orzaba, singer songwriter with Tears for Fears. Mixed reading experience, his life is good to read about by the interjection of the astrology stuff throughout is a bit boring (to me) but it also does explain some of their songs.
