Does he play in goal or in midfield? Nobody needs a striker these days, do they?

I missed the last 20 minutes of our game today thankfully. Not long back home now and have started to attack the cans in the fridge. 2 more and the numbness will kick in, can’t wait.

I went out for beers last night. Checked my bank this morning to see what the damage was and saw I’d deposited £80 in my skybet account. Turns out I’ve put it on city to win the title :oops:
Oh well, at least I wasn’t so bladdered that I put on us to win!

115 are heading for an off season and the Scouse thieves will sneak in ahead of us
Sneak in??? That will not be required........we'll be watching their taillights for the rest of the season.

I'm not a betting man myself Wibble, but just out of interest would you willingly lose that £80 if it meant we won the title?

Absolutely! Trouble is, if city don’t win it, Liverpool look more likely than us at the moment!

rob jones has to be the most incompetent, useless refs EVER... Stonewall Red Card when manure's Martinez rakes Palmers knee long after the ball is gone and doesn't even give him a Yellow.

And guess who we've got when we play the Chavscum!? :?

Jasper reckoned VAR would recommend a red, then when they don’t he said it’s the correct. What a fucking waste of spunk that dipshit is. That whole ref in the studio is the biggest load if w.ank ever, just agree with every decision no matter what.

Fuck me, is that what happened?? How the fuck did he justify suggesting it might be a red, to then agreeing it wasn’t even a yellow?!

This refereeing situation in the English game is beyond a farce.

He tried to play advantage and then brought it back for the foul which diluted the seriousness of the foul. VAR then sat on the fence instead of sending him to the monitor.
Noticeable change in the attitude of refs this weekend as there’s been fewer cards and they seem to be encouraging the game to flow, whether this is pure coincidence or a directive from above we will find out soon.

Noticed that as well ‘it’s not as bad as I first thought’. Thanks for your input Jasper!
Though it should be noted that Martinez was booked for it!
