Re: MATCHWATCH : Northampton Town (h)

In the second half one of the chants started after the ref awarded a free kick against us a few yards outside the right side of our penalty area. People around me were saying 'but he clearly got the ball' with no reference to how he might have got the ball, I can't remember which of our players it ...

Wasn`t intentional and the lino and ref agreed. comes under the category of seen them given though. Speaking of the ref, she was very good again tonight. Agreed. The game is so much better when it’s not stopped for every slightly questionable piece of physical contact. She was consistent with it an...

I didn’t know there was a 15 second rule on head injuries.

Re: Weekend Football

That was weird and rather unexpected.

I was kind of supporting Man Utd in that game.

An underdog thing I guess.

Re: Striker STILL urgently required - can we wait until January?

Unambitious of me but can we not just relax and revel in some stability for a season?

I haven’t enjoyed the games I’ve seen but am happy to settle in for now.

Re: LOLiverpooLOL - Next Season

Integration of a bunch of new players, however highly ranked, takes time.

Slot tried to do it too quickly, but they’ll get there in the end.

Re: LOLiverpooLOL - Next Season

Too many new players being thrown in together maybe. Last year they all seemed to be operating telepathically at times - just not quite working yet. Wirtz is too good a player not to come good in the way one would expect, but maybe he should have been integrated into the starting 11 a little more gr...

Re: Weekend Football

that overturned Pen when Sheshko was taken down by the keeper was full nonsense. It was a pen. It wasn’t the foot that caught the striker, it was the thigh and he ran into that. There was contact then, but Sesko did a ridiculous dive as a result. On balance ( and in accordance with the rules on the...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Stockport County (a)

I may be unfair here, but Elliott and Doyle look more concerned about their YouTube reel than their work rate and contributions to team performances.

South Coast Royal
Royal Rother It seems a bit obvious but Amorim has to go.


No, please keep him. :wink:


Well yes, there is that.

But it’d be funny to see another hapless sod come in and fail in the basket case.

Re: Weekend Football

Seriously, Arteta is costing Arsenal the title. Absolutely cowardly tactics and starting lineup, go a goal down and zero ideas other than tippy happy round the box..... Even the Stoke tactic is wearing thin. I thought that but Rice ,when interviewed afterwards, said they had played really wel (is t...

Re: Changes In Football thread

Currently time wasting is punished by a yellow card which many think is worth it. I'd punish it by a turnover of possession. Give the throw in or FK to the opposing team. Replace a GK with a corner etc. Much bigger deterrent. Yes, but you can't punish a team where a goalkeeper is, on rare occasions...

Re: Changes In Football thread

Something needs to be done to stop ‘keepers feigning injury with 10 mins to go just so the managers can get a tactical chat in with the players. I get that refs can’t take a chance but the managers should not be allowed to talk to the players. Move them over to the other side of the pitch. That will...
