  1. We don't need to win three in a row. We only need to win one in a row now.
  2. A fair and balanced article. The answer seems to be that “nobody knows”
  3. And quite a few on here, I suspect.
  4. Good question. Was it an obvious goal scoring opportunity? It was hardly a handball on the goal line but... I’m sure we all have our own interpretations.
  5. We need better than both.
  6. Call the referee over and ask him to give her a yellow card for standing too close to the line and blocking your passage.
  7. Yep.
  8. I don’t hate Stevens. I’m just not a fan. He’s a liability waiting to happen. As my daughter once said of Benali, “It’s not his fault that he’s not very good”. Their goal might have been important but fortunately we were good enough to score three but such errors need to be eradicated no matter who makes them. “Apart from that Mrs. Lincoln how was the play?” There’s no room for sentiment in professional football.
  9. It wouldn’t have been a red card but should have been a penalty, especially if they’re going to give that one against Bertrand.
  10. Five weeks!
  11. I’ve tried to keep out of it but I can’t let that go unchallenged. Outstanding? Apart from his part in their goal that is. He really must learn to stick with the player and not go chasing the ball. If he could cut out his lapses in concentration and concentrate on his marking rather than relying on last ditch blocks then he might develop into a useful player.
  12. Nine goals now with two games to go. He’s getting closer to that magical ten mark
  13. Nope. That was Stephens’s man.
  14. I’m very pleased for the young man
  15. There are also risks from further restrictions. Many people and enterprises are up to their ears in debt and at breaking point.
  16. Thanks, but I looked at this the other day and it doesn’t really answer any of the questions raised so far.
  17. I think he put his left foot out in order to turn but it was dragged away from him by Aké when he went to block.
  18. I’ll contact him over the weekend, he might have a student card. I’ve still got to get the ticket reassigned though. What proportion of supporters are going to have ID anyway?
  19. I’d like to know too. My other ticket is historically in my wife’s name but I usually take my grandson. For this match I paid the full price for the second ticket but the website wouldn’t let me allocate it against my grandson’s supporter number. I think I’ll have to give them a call. He’s 18 but I don’t even know if he has photo ID. How many people do?
  20. Napoleon would have had something to say about that.
  21. Better lock down now then since we’re going to have to lock down anyway. If you keep looking hard enough you’ll eventually find something. If this variant is more transmissible and less deadly then shouldn’t we encourage it? Besides, this year of lockdown has done more than enough damage already. Another one would result in riots and bricks through windows.
  22. I think you’ll find it was her choice
  23. NO You don't really need a reason why, surely?
  24. Er... actually we don't.
  25. Obstruction isn’t a specific offence any more but if you’re in an offside position when you do it it will be given as offside. The threshold for an offside obstruction is lower than that for a foul in normal play.
