Ref gives us a FK in about the same place as the one they got their first goal from, but blows his whistle and stops Archer from taking it quickly. Cunt.

Jesus, that was embarrassing from BBD.

Dibling is clearly a very exciting talent, but he really needs to learn when to pass the ball instead of trying to dribble past 4 players at once.

Oh look. If you play with a proper striker and people in their correct positions, you can create chances to score. Who could possibly have predicted that? Martin was trying again to be too clever in the first half. And it's unforgivable.

We're gonna win 4-3!

This is the key for me. If you know you're squad has serious limitations then at least set yourself up to be hard working and difficult to beat. But that seems to be beyond Martin's comprehension. We simply don't have the players to play the way he wants to play in the PL. And he's utterly incapable of seeing that, it seems.

Yeah but I didn't watch either of those games 😉

Fuck me this is just beyond pathetic. I don't think I've ever seen such an abject performance. I'll be amazed if it stays 3-0.

Seven defenders in the box and not one of them marking the guy on the penalty spot. Fucking clueless.

This is fucking awful to watch. I've been very reluctant to start calling for a managerial change just yet, cos I thought Russ deserved a chance to show he can adapt to the PL. But just what the fuck is this formation he's put out there tonight? No recognised striker on the pitch but 5 on the bench, and seemingly just instructing the whole team to pass it to a crowded out Dibling at every opportunity. He's doing himself no favours at all. Edit: And there's 2-0. Fuck off Russ.

How the fuck is that allowed to stand? The ball was clearly further forward from where the foul was when he took it. That's bullshit.

Trump on a visit to the hurricane ravaged Georgia today, when asked by a reporter if he had reached out to President Biden to work together on the recovery operation, says "No I haven't reached out to him. I think he's sleeping right now". Such a monumental prick.

Yep. He's going to make a quintuple substitution on 60 mins and change to a 4-1-5 formation. Seriously, what the fuck? Why would you have 5 strikers and only one defender on the bench? Absolute madness!

Yeah they've edited it now.

Well if Potter really is being lined up, he doesn't appear to have been doing his homework 🤨

Little wonder that GM loves him so much. True kindred spirits.

With the greatest of respect, that didn't exactly work out well last time, did it 😉

4 episodes in to S2 of Rings of Power now. OK the writing and dialogue is a little suspect at times, but my God it's so beautiful to look at. The cinematography, VFX, and general visual aesthetics are just mind-blowingly good. It hasn't just raised the bar for TV production, it's launched it into orbit.

This looks familiar...

It's a hell of a stretch to describe Isabel Oakeshott as a 'journalist'.

The final is going to be at St Mary's? Wow.

Such a shame that GM has decided to bow out of the forum. I'm sure he would have had a perfectly reasonable explanation why his tip isn't doing so well:

Yeah but news headlines need to be concise and, as such, they have always had their own grammatical rules that you don't find anywhere else. It's not a new thing.

Of course we should. But the blame for that lies entirely with our failure to convert our chances.
