  1. Many many thanks for this, much appreciated. For the disallowed effort, doesn't Pellè foul their number 24? And as for the penalty claim it's as much a case of Yoshida being fouled as the other way round.
  2. So what's your point? Honestly, what he does in his spare time is none of my business.
  3. Could it have been for persistent misconduct rather than that foul alone! I haven't seen any of the game so I can't comment either way. Somewhere too the yellow can be for what is said rather than done.
  4. With Vic still out for another four games?
  5. Clean sheets make all the difference I've just logged on from the other side of the world and this was a lovely surprise. At least we're looking up the table instead of down.
  6. I wish him well. Shame it didn't work out here.
  7. Yes indeed. Very much noticeable over the last twenty years.
  8. Totally meaningless. That lists the UK and not England (yes, I know the title says UK).
  9. Frighteningly overcrowded.
  10. The 3000 could have been messed up by the change of date.
  11. As compared with Byram's stamp on Bertrand ' ankle. Clattenburg made great show of claiming that the challenge was on the ground.
  12. He reached for his back pocket first, which is where the refs usually keep their red card. Where did Clattenburg keep his yellow during this game?
  13. Only that sometimes the holocaust is portrayed as the most despicable aspect of the war. There were other extensive massacres of civilians in other spheres of operation such as Russia and China. What makes the Jewish extermination programme so chilling is the cold-blooded nature of it.
  14. I totally agree, but it must not be forgotten that this was not the only despicable episode in this whole sorry affair.
  15. My uncle was in the RAF Regiment and visited Belsen at the end of the war. It put him off ever having any children, he didn't want to bring them into this world.
  16. It was only the island of Hong Kong and Kowloon that were leased in perpetuity, the New Territories reverted to China in 1997 and the rest was untenable without them.
  17. An extensive tram system would be wonderful and just what this region needs but Hampshire County Council gave up hope of that many years ago when the government wouldn't put up any money. They've given to all to deprived areas up north, probably ones with more votes in the balance.
  18. We still have Leicester away to look forward to. At the moment there's nobody bigger!
  19. An interesting point, but I don't think I would find Liverpool winning the Europa Cup very amusing.
  20. What happens if the team finishing 5th wins the FA Cup?
  21. I only saw Kelvin's saves against Leeds on a short recording but I thought that the shots were straight at him too, but isn't good positioning the mark of a good keeper?
  22. He was blaming the officials after losing 4-0 at our place. It's always someone else's fault.
