Wullie

I think the thing that really did for Wolves was the fixture computer. Even when the earlier run comes it's very difficult to flick a switch and turn your form round after 3 months of getting beat every week.

Is Willock fucked again?

Jack Stephens getting a red for pulling Cucurella's hair on the same night as Van Dijk gets away with that is farcical. The shoulder is a body part that tends to get away with whatever the fuck it wants. I thought straight away of Rudiger very obviously and deliberately shattering Kevin De Bruyne's cheekbone in the Champions League final and getting away with it because shoulder is fine.

The structure of the membership system must surely create an incentive where a lot of people in the ground, a few thousand maybe, for any particular game aren't that bothered about being there. For example, a family with 2 kids might pay nearly £120 for membership because they want a ticket for one game, plus the costs of the actual ticket, so they're potentially looking at £300 for one game. After that, they're going to keep applying even if they're not desperate because a) they see it as justifying the initial £120 outlay and b) it's so difficult to win a ballot that they need to apply for every game to fulfil point a). You don't need that many people in a stadium whose attitude is "I'm not hugely bothered, I've got work tomorrow, the kids have got school, I didn't really want to pay all this money for Fulham at home but I'll never get in the ground otherwise, I wouldn't have picked a night game, I would have sold this ticket on but they won't let me so I'm here with a face on etc etc etc" to bring the atmosphere down.

Regardless of pure numbers in terms of when assists were and weren't coming, our attacking play from front to back has ran largely through Trippier since the day he walked in the door until this summer, the combinations down the right hand side with Bruno and the right sided forward were Plan A for how we got the ball up the field. His absence is the primary reason we're now struggling to score goals imo (not that I'm advocating for him back in the team, it seems he has made his bed and we have to deal with it).

It was the first goal so probably a copyright strike.

Who are the people behind the asterisks?

If all the performatively outraged amazing people are serious about wanting not to have players who even think this kind of thing because of their religious sensibilities (let's be honest, they're not, but park that for a second), at least be honest with yourselves what that means in terms of signing players from, for example, Africa whether they be Muslim or Christian. Please don't pretend you're stupid enough to think that e.g. Mo Salah doesn't believe exactly the same as Sam Morsy does. The Premier League wants to have its cake and eat it, it wants to be the global league but it also wants to force certain aspects of Western secular liberalism on the players. Some of them simply aren't going to have it while some of them will privately resent it but go along for an easy life. You can call them names if you want but it's not going to change.

I don't want to see homophobic scum like Guehi linked with us ever again. In future we must ensure we spend Mohammed bin Salman's money more responsibly in line with our values.

If the government are insistent on having a football regulator they should be starting with this sort of bullshit.

Thank goodness Guehi got involved, when it was just Morsy it was a much more complicated intersectional traffic jam.

I've had a dispatch email.

I just saw this on Hot UK Deals and got the home kit for my daughter.

You could guess forever really so I'd already been looking at mainly HJK's European qualifiers, but more recent. Moore played against Haka in 99/00, a 4-1 Rangers win.
