C.D.Nacional v Vitoria Guimarães. Finished 1-0 to Nacional, despite them clearly being an inferior side. Nice enough stadium and an alright attendance, although it turned out to be a massive pain in the arse to get to. If Guimarães had been able to produce anything approaching a decent final ball they’d have won comfortably. Nacional also make a huge deal about Cristiano Ronaldo having played there for a couple of years as a child...

Heading to Herriot Watt v Stirling Uni in the East of Scotland Conference C today. 

Edit: Finished 2-0 to Herriot Watt. Comfortable victory after Stirling were reduced to 10 early in the first half. First visit since Herriot Watt got the new stands put in.

Bound to be a rake of Terecera games on in that region within striking distance of Valencia. Public transport may be the issue though. I had the same problem in Malaga last November.

Heading to Edinburgh Uni v East Stirlingshire in Lowland League today.

Edit: Finished 2-1 to Shire.  Uni were 1-0 up when Shire were reduced to 10 men but Andy Rodgers coming on changed game for Shire and they ran out deserved winners.

top entertainment at worthing v lewes - red cards, goals from the half way line and a version of ‘the billy boys’ that finishes with “if you are a bognor fan surrender or you'll die” - and now a 25 yard free kick straight in to the top corner - fantastic stuff for a tenner...[emoji3]

this was today's 'big sussex derby' 6th v 5th in the bostick isthmian premier (level seven - promotion to the conference south); lewes won 4-3 to go second in front of an impressive crowd of 1126; London Pride for £3.50 a pint, three stands made out of corrugated tin sheeting and a brilliant, competitive game with no 'simulation' or other fuckwittery - just great

Inverness Caledonian Thistle 1-2 Queen of the South

Boring first half, but the second half was much better. ICT took the lead but 2 goals in quick succession secured the points for the guests.

Impressive display from the hosts to hammer the league leaders. Palmerston is a brilliant ground, really enjoyed my day.

You are hereby appointed as our lucky mascot. If you could just pop along to Dens Park next Saturday that would be much appreciated. :thumsup2

Portogruaro 1-0 Opitergina.

Probably the best game I've seen all season. First versus third in Promozione, the sixth tier of Italian football (and there are actually about seven hundred clubs above this level).

Porto have a very tidy set up, proper tickets, a decent range of merch and their streak sandwich is the best food I've ever eaten at a stadium. They had one season in Serie B a good few years back and retain a fanbase of around 700. A banner hangs on the main stand saying "President, let us dream, we want to go to Serie A." They even had a handful of ultras on their tiny curva.
The stadium itself is a nice one incorporating a velodrome and a tiny basketball court sits behind one of the goals.

It was end to end for 88 minutes with very little between the two teams but plenty of chances. Then Porto smashed a winner on the volley from a tight angle. Defeat was very harsh on Opitergina who actually had one of their best games of the season.IMG_20190113_161800.jpgIMG_20190113_152926.jpgIMG_20190113_151932.jpgIMG_20190113_145428.jpgIMG_20190113_132553.jpg
