This is completely and utterly false. The two are entirely separate numbers. Sole reason of death ffs, so what because they also have pneumonia or a blood clot caused by the disease it doesn't count? That's like saying nobody dies of AIDS. The excess death numbers just a total coincidence that they correlate almost exactly with the certified Covid death numbers. You people are so odd.

It is that (unless you think that in the, what 30/40/50 years you've been watching football matches without interruption, nobody in the crowd at any match you've ever watched or attended, ever needed a paramedic), but also, why would anyone jump to "oh this never happened before the vaccines" rather than "oh this never happened before the virus that's killed at least 180,000 people in this country alone and is known to leave many people with long term health issues"? That's a really odd jump that my brain's not capable of making.

Gerraway man. He's cleaned his legs out a yard outside the area. Just because the two players are still in contact as one is toppling over doesn't mean the "foul is continuing". It's a free kick.

Anyone else watching the A League? How is that a penalty?

Ludicrous price.

Didn't have it on, didn't fancy it with these sides, fucking typical.

Just needed a FH card each at OT for my free 365er, 22/1, everything else in. So annoying when the refs are absolutely intent not to get them out early.

Boga/Gonzalez 2 SOT each at Fiorentina, 72/1 Can't quite believe the price.

Don't let me down now Lewis.

Huddersfield winning at Fulham, taking Nicholls at 10/1.

Jacob Murphy 13/1 for 2 SOT with Betfair

Coufal and Lewis O'Brien in the early games tomorrow, 35/1

They added a break during the Project Restart games and it was absolutely infuriating. Game would just have some momentum to it and suddenly the ref blows his whistle and they all go and stand at the side for 2 minutes, even when it was raining.

Absolutely valid concerns about the competition itself but there's no doubt that some of the late stage Champions League games in recent years have been sensational to watch, legitimately some of the greatest games of all time. Hard to see that this year for some reason. I think scrapping away goals will come to be seen as a big mistake when Chelsea are boring the arse off everyone in extra time.

Champions League feels really dull all of a sudden. Quite a few teams are so stale. Feel like I've been watching Modric and Kroos for about 25 years.

Shows how little I watch German football since BT lost the rights, had absolutely no idea Sabitzer was at Bayern now.

Mumba's on the bench

One thing it's about time fans learnt in football is never venerate your owners.

Decent chance of getting a player multiple up across the 3 games tonight I reckon. Decent refs, fair prices and plenty of players who like a booking on show.

Lewis O'Brien is one of those players where the price is wrong and stays wrong for ages. Booked in 3 of the last 4 and 7/29 this season, 365 still have him 11/2, compared with Betfair's 8/5.

Temporary hiatus, so they say.

I've felt for a while that I'm more than a bit sick of the whole format tbh. All the Preview/Review shows feel absolutely stale as fuck to me now. Pumping out 4 or 5 shows a week didn't help like: "let's spend an hour reviewing 3 bog standard PL fixtures from last night" Once I started skipping a few, I started skipping more, and I really don't feel like I'm missing out on anything particularly interesting or insightful when I do.

Really surprised to see Matty Cash 15/4 for a card against us with 365. Betfair have him 7/4. I'd take that price for him in any game but especially up against ASM.

Like Justin 11/2 up against Diaz. Double with Thiago 40/1. Going to have some trebles on the Valencia game.
