Whitey Grandad

What is the point of playing for penalties most of the game if you’re not prepared for them?

How can a team miss three penalties out of five? I blame the manager. What was the point of those last two substitutions?

At least we won’t have to put up with another bank holiday 🤗

If only we had given it a real go we might have got something out of this. We all know where this is going, don’t we?

My thoughts too. Doesn’t know when to pass the ball.

Some very loose passes going on out there.

It’s been coming.

Well that was unexpected 😳

I saw a map comparing touches for Pickford and Banks. Banks never left his goal area.

It’s very sad that players whom you knew in their prime are taken from us at an early age.

Did I see that Messi is a free agent too?

We’d be annoyed if that was given against us.

Wearing a mask is primarily to protect others rather than the wearer. There is an argument that restricting exposure to pathogens reduces immunity to them.

Although the Shaw of today is not the Shaw of a couple of years ago. Maybe it was Mourinho’s treatment of him that helped to make him the player he is today? Who knows?

I haven’t had a cold for well over ten years so wearing a mask has made no difference to me. I don’t think I’ve ever had influenza.

I can’t stand Gobby Henderson but credit to him for a great goal.

A better use for it than drinking it.

I shouldn’t really say this but if anybody was time wasting when I was refereeing I would add on an extra 50% of injury time.

It’s an animated gif. I have a copy if anybody is interested.

People who haven’t caught the virus and aren’t going to catch it are not the reason we haven’t opened up. Blame the control freaks.

Chatting to my accountant today. His wife has to have regular tests on account of her job. Last Saturday three successive Lateral Flow tests showed positive so she arranged a PCR test which came back negative. He has tested negative all throughout using the Lateral Flow tests. There is something about his Mrs that is causing positive results despite not being infected, no symptoms, nothing. Meanwhile whole classrooms are sent home because a couple of kids have got sniffles (not my words).

Coming home tonight along Hurley Road I saw a young kid on the opposite pavement swerving out into the road and back again to overtake a pedestrian. He couldn’t have been more than about eleven years old.

Andrew Marr had been double jabbed yet went down with it but he had been at the G7 summit getting up at 05:00 and back to London after midnight. You can’t rely on just the vaccine to protect yourself. You need to look after your immune system too.

Keep it closer to the ground and away from his opponent.
