Daily oz football on Twitter reporting Anthony carter is going from the Portuguese second division to the Thai premier league with Bangkok United. 

Blackpool won the first League 1 playoff semi today 3-0. Kenny Dougall played the full 90 mins.

That was the away leg too. Outstanding result to have 3 away goals in the bag. 

Dougall also got an assist and apparently a match rating of 8.4. He seems to have had a very solid game.
Considering Portsmouth (my team) didn’t make the play offs, I’m really wanting Blackpool to make it all the way. I’d love to see Dougall in the Championship. He seems like quite an underrated player because we don’t get to see him play much. 

Makrillos played 90 in a 1-1 draw. Bulgaria break into Championship and relegation groups for the final part of the season. His team are top of the relegation group by a few points. They drew with the team below them. Hopefully this means they can do enough to stay up. 

Edit: it seems that there is only one match left, so Makrillos’ team is safe! They are 5 points clear of the next team. 

Jordan Harrison has been retained by Watford as a third-year scholar. 

Just watched the replay. It's the first time I've actually seen Dougall play & he did well. Didn't realise that he played CDM. Made quite a few important tackles & interceptions, good with the ball at his feet, good passing game & really good engine. Be really good for the Socceroos if he moves up to the Championship. 

Italian article on pennington. More about him than football. Apparently he:

- speaks English, Italian, French and German
- doing a Natural Sciences course at uni
- volunteers with a cleaner beaches organisation and has done Volunteering trips to Madagascar and the Maldives cleaning plastic waste
- plays as a mezzala which from a quick google is a mainly a centre mid who drifts forward and wide into a kind of inside forward role.

I think the organisation he works with is https://www.legambiente.it/

Is Damian Davies still updating the Aussies Abroad list?

His website (http://www.ozfootball.net/ark/Abroad/index.shtml) hasnt been updated for a few months and its hard to keep on top of all these changes during transfer period

Definitely one to keep an eye on. Would be great if they loaned him out soon so he can get some senior football under his belt.

Actually he has just been called up to Ireland's u/19 squad. Shit.
https://www.sportsnewsireland.com/soccer/irish-messi-included-in-ireland-19-training-camp-squad/

Its a squad of 35, not including local players, and there is a smattering of other players who have represented other countries. Its no forgone conclusion where he'll end up representing. As he's already played for the Joeys, its not out of the question that he'll plump for Australia.

Thomas Deng is back in the starting eleven for Urawa Red Diamonds.

And suddenly does he warrant a Roos call up? If he's been training intensively and plays two more times beforehand I think it'd have to.

Weeks back Smith was just getting into it and now he's exploded and should start. 

McGree has rejoined Birmingham City on loan until January 1.

Great cutback from Mileusnic, teammate shoots first time but the keeper makes a good save. Would've been a good moment for him. 2-1 loss to Nordsjaelland.
67 minutes for Mabil. 4-2 loss to Copenhagen.
Full match for Wright in a 2-0 loss to Lincoln in the play-off.

Xanthi won their last game but have to win a two-legged play-off for promotion.

Interesting it’s only a six month loan but great news nonetheless 

Anyone seen him play?

Could be because the MLS seasons starts after that? I hope they sign him on a permanent deal to be honest.

It certainly gives McGree a chance to shine over that extra six months. Also, if he shines in either Olympics or WC qualifiers, this might strengthen his case for a permanent signing in England.

Arnold said that Olyroos squad from 2008, about 80% of players got offered club contracts afterwards. Massive shop window for entire squad 

Delbridge assist

Dougall starting

Dougall scores. Ht and it's 5:1 Blackpool on aggregate. Gotta go for Blackpool as I can't see Sunderland coming back against Lincoln. 

Noah Botic has left Hoffenheim.

Any news on where he's gone/ going to?

Dougall goal at 2:02. I recommend watching the whole video though, looked like a fantastic game with some special goals.

What a game!! Awesome result for Dougall.
