Mate, no one knows who you're talking about.

I'm buzzing now. Wish I was going but I'm not in the country. I was there for the Redknapp fiasco and I was there for the draw when Lambert scored (which we should have won). We've got to win this time.

I don't think this is something the ECJ can rule on, no matter how funny that would be. This is nothing to do with application of EU law.

Cedric was the only one close enough to do anything. You need to step up sometimes and deal with the immediate threat.

This is extremely significant but I worry about how the loony fringe will react to this. I predict a doubling-down of xenophobic, divisive, misleading guff designed to appeal to the base elements of the leave argument. We need an election and we need rid of the swivel-eyes in the Tory party. Unfortunately, the alternative is also pretty swivel-eyed. We need a cross-party government and a further vote on Brexit.

The court said Johnson was, "bang out of order".

Why should you pay more tax if your kids go private? Should be less, if anything. Or are you talking about income tax thresholds?

I was very much laughing at the oppo keeper.

Saw the highlights. ****ing funny.

Agreed. How has VAR not got involved with that handball though?!

****ing Tory scum, isn't it.

As a midfielder, it’s relatively easy to have game where people “don’t see much wrong”. You run around a lot, take the easy pass whenever offered and don’t make any silly tackles. 6/10, job done. But that’s not good enough for the top level. It was a good penalty but he also hit some poor shots over the bar that should have been on target.

Yes, this was poor from Cedric. Same as the Man U goal. Shirking responsibility.

We need to replace him with Premier League quality like Ashley Barnes or Glenn Murray.

It’s important at PL level to have a strong black guy in midfield. All the best teams do. We’ve lacked that for a while.

Nothing like the Dell but quite like many PL grounds and nothing to do with our poor form, IMO.

Why was John Humphrys next to the urinal?

What?

It’s not “anti-Ralph”. I’m supportive of him. But it’s worth observing that our home form is a problem which he hasn’t fixed yet. Our squad is poor but it’s good enough to eek out more than 1.26 ppg at home.

7 or more is a decent return from that.

Think it’s Arsenal, Spurs (v lucky!), Everton, Fulham, Wolves. Defeat to Cardiff, draw with Huddersfield, draw and a loss to The Cherries....

Played 15 Won 5 Drawn 4 Lost 6 19 points from 15. 1.26 points a game. 24 points over a home season. Needs to improve a lot if we are going to avoid a relegation scrap.

Apart from giving them the first goal he was decent.

This is why it was utterly negligent to get rid of Lemina and Reed with no replacement. Those two have no competition and doubtless both will get suspended / injured over the season.

The thing is, whilst the first half selection was gash and we played better in the second half we still only scored once, courtesy of a poor tackle, and we conceded and should have conceded a penalty. When we play a bottom third teak, we have a chance of winning. When we play mid-table and above teams we will struggle. We remain weak at centre back, centre mid and striker. We only have one left back. We only have two central midfielders. We have a goalie no one else would want. The squad is crap.
