The Cat

Lee Mason all over the place here.

His decline seems to have happened quite fast. I wonder if he's carrying a niggly injury which is hampering him because it really wasn't that long ago that he was up and down the pitch non stop, getting behind the full back and sticking crosses in. Now he just seems to canter about without busting a gut. Still a decent, experienced pro but not sure he can cope with the physical expectations we put on the full backs.

Once Leeds realised they could lob it over his head and run into the space behind it was only a matter of time before they scored. Not his fault, he just isn't a full back. We're screwed in that position without Walker Peters and if Romeu is out for any length of time with Diallo then we're fucked in central midfield too which is probably more worrying.

Has to save that. Fucking garbage performance.

Pathetic defending. 3 fucking centre backs and none of the cunts bothered.

I'm gonna blame it for Romeu's injury but not for the result if we lose.

Oh great, Romeu injured because of the fucking pitch.

Great save again McCarthy.

Wouldn't be surprised if Andy Hinchliffe ends up on the touchline noshing Beilsa off by the end of the match.

Great save McCarthy.

Could be 1-1 though, Armstrong was closer than their effort.

Salisu played him onside, Bednarek and Vestergaard didn't commit, McCarthy undone by a bit of a shitty bounce off the crap pitch but should have done better.

Oh fuck off

Commentators are a bit annoying jizzing over Leeds even when they play a crap pass.

No one is going to dispute that!

He's right though, Tella cheated.

Both decisions correct. Definitely blew the whistle after the free kick and Tella dived, which I absolutely hate so I'm pleased it was overturned. Mad game, pitch is a joke.

Oxford away tonight. I imagine Westwood and his gang are half way up the A34 already in their truck with a load of cheap lager and a stack of pallets on the back.

That was hilarious.

We have opened contract talks with McCarthy according to The Athletic.

Play off finals with fans at Wembley. Do we want them to make it and lose or will their "best fans in the country" help roar them onto victory?

Definitely need to reopen outdoor sports. All the data shows that the chances of catching in there are pretty much zero. Get the kids out playing sport again asap.

8th March for schools and some other restrictions released. Too soon? Should they stagger school returns rather than spam all the kids back on the same day? This screwed us over before when they all went back, I wonder if it will happen again or will cases continue to drop because of the number of vaccines and the fact spring is nearly here and the weather is getting warmer. The government must be very confident this won't lead to a rise in cases because it could undo some of the good work they've done with the vaccine.

We went in the late 90's a few times when a friend lived there. It was largely a building site then, there were some large skyscrapers but nothing like it is now. You needed a license to buy alcohol and there were only a few bars in hotels (one of which was designed to mimic the bar in Cheers) It didn't seem overly flashy then and there weren't loads of tourists. It was obviously very hierarchical though. Westerners worked for companies, locals worked for Government and only did 4 days a week, Indians and other Asians were all taxi drivers or on building sites. We basically went because we had a friend there and free accommodation. Wouldn't have gone otherwise and wouldn't go back.

Spurs now 9th, only 2 points ahead of an Arsenal team they were all laughing at earlier in the season. Fair play to West Ham.
