Is that all profit? That's amazing. I've lost a fucking fortune.

I know there's only so much you can say but I found it a bit weird that every club's message is almost identical. They put loads of them in an article on the BBC website and it's just the same tweet ten times with a different club badge next to it.

You should never feel sick about wishing this on Ashley lets be honest all of our Christmas's would have come at once if the fat cunt was a victim of something like this Are there really people like this? Fucking hell man I hate him but I’m done with people in general if fucktards like this are for real. Sadly once i saw the news i knew i'd see people saying this Oh so now youd be concerned about someones well being after being in an accident that you absolutely despised and had no attachment to you or your family?? Its like people being concerned and shedding a tear when Thatcher died Give over man I don't disagree with you but can we leave it out of this thread entirely please?

Snodgrass has 4 yellows this season (most in the PL is 5, which only one player has), despite the fact he usually only gets 15 minutes off the bench. He starts today and 365 have him 9/2.

What's his argument? Don't know if you know who Vickery is, journalist based in South America, i.e. the home of time-wasting and niggly shithousery. Basically his view is that all the stuff we call time-wasting in football, most of it isn't designed to actually waste time, that's just an added bonus which the referee ultimately has power over by adding the time on and handing out cards, and that the primary function of players lying down pretending to be injured late on or taking thirty seconds to walk fifteen yards is to kill the game's momentum and relieve pressure. They make the game stop-start, and he's right, I've seen tons of games (usually when I've got a bet on the attacking team) where a goal looks completely inevitable late on, but then the defending team will get the physio on for the goalkeeper hurting himself catching a cross and the players all stand around for three minutes, and when it starts up again with plenty of time added for the stoppage, the game just fizzles out without them mounting another attack as all that momentum has gone. Stopping the clock just takes away the power of the referee to control piss-taking with cards and added time, and gives the players carte blanche to do it even more.

Tim Vickery makes a pretty good argument for how that would actually make things worse.

I did it last night, got 9, didn't get

That bloke has been a prize whopper for years and George has got rid of him with one response. He's deleted his account.

Is he a regular starter? Started 3. 90% pass completion, lush on the ball Liked him but guilty of the worst individual performance I’ve seen for Newcastle. Cacapa likes this. Kenedy also From memory it was on a par if not worse. 0-4 home to Spurs, he was horrific. Despite almost certainly attending I have zero recollection of said game. Carver? Midweek game iirc, think Chadli scored.

Love Sarri and his fags.

Lichtsteiner 9/2 to get booked is a good price.

Perez created more chances than any other PL player this weekend (6).

But how else will I get time away from my wife?

It's on Eleven Sports, same as every Serie A game (so no).

Had no idea Cameron Jerome was in Turkey playing for Goztepe with Gouffran.

TBF other than the Milan derby, the offerings elsewhere look a bit crap too.

Neither do Serbia. Weird post.

Did you see the England game against Croatia? A Premier League game played in a similar atmosphere would make negative headlines around the world. What's your alternative? Keep giving him money on an indefinite basis, no matter what he does? I think our "fans" have got that covered, it's working really well.

Just heard that, nearly applauded sat in my front room.

I’m going to a non-league game every couple of weeks and a Hearts game every couple of months. Lad at work offered me his ticket for £10 today and I turned it down. I’ve never been at that point before. I’ll follow the games and get caught up in them for 90 minutes but that’s it. The passion has gone. Last game I watched was against Chelsea in August. Couldn't give a fuck.

0-2

Real Madrid losing again.
