3 Days ago Edwards was reporting that him buying a new house was the biggest indicator that he was staying

Yet here he is retweeting this story

As I’ve said, Edward’s is wrong about the house.

You don’t insist on a release clause and then buy a house, regardless of how happy you are somewhere. 
 

That’s not why I’m stating Edward’s is wrong btw but it is stating the obvious. Houses like that aren’t all that easy to sell given the limited market.

Handball would have been incredibly harsh but worse have been given recently.

Young immediately looks towards the referee mind. Third one was a penalty, the first one I guess you’d stick with the on field decision. All 3 seemed to be fairly quickly cleared by VAR.

Pretty sure it must have been on the radio as I’m told my brother went to bed when we were 2-0 down and came back downstairs when he heard we’d scored. The hi-lights were then on Sports Night (which is actually an indicator of the importance of The Fairs Cup).

Mackems will be celebrating VAR.

Wow

Ashley Young is amongst the biggest moaners in the whole league. He’s got a reet cheek with the amount of things he gets away with. Sure he got away with a few things up here the other week and was in the refs face all of the game.

That’s shocking by the Council, I mean what’s the point, the club are doing great after some really difficult times.

Pity we can’t act as some kind of guarantor if that’s the issue.

He currently rents the one in front, so would make sense…

 

He does, Edward’s has put 2 and 2 together and come up with 5.

Cracker that

Any option for the lower team to request to switch to away if they wanted?

That’s what I was thinking. Certainly League1 and below.

Tbf my eyes tell me an awful lot of what’s being said there. I’d rather trust my eyes than someone else’s interpretation of a good chance. I agree over a large period it might be useful but in individual games it’s got to be about the context of the game? I’m assuming Xg doesn’t make any adjustments for bogey sides or he always scores against xxx? Mad though it is, in individual games it’s a thing.

Anyway, I felt we were relatively comfortable against an increasingly frustrated PSG.

On a lighter note whatever Werner’s XG is, it should be lower.

They had loads of chances. Loads. Barcola in particular. They cut us open time and again.

 

We were eventually robbed. But the defensive performance was bad like it was against Chelsea in the league cup, or Chelea or Arsenal in the league.

I honestly don’t remember many clear cut chances, they undoubtedly had all of the possession and got themselves in great positions, I just didn’t feel they were going to score and we had our game plan spot on. Their XG was also massively boosted by that ridiculous penalty. That might be rose tinted but I’ve felt far more nervous in other games. Against Arsenal we looked like we had no plan and they created really good chances.
 

XG is bollocks imo btw, it’s really all about context.
 

I’ve little doubt if PSG had scored 20 mins earlier that we’d have lost and deservedly so, probably by a couple of goals.

I can’t remember many, if any, great chances that PSG had, especially in the 2nd half (we missed a great chance at nil nil). They were shooting from distance and we were relatively comfortable. That xg had to be largely down to the number of “tickets” they’d bought. 
 

Anyway, come on Dortmund.

Dortmund did us away but, we really should have won at home, Wilson sitter and bar x2, they even took a photo of the bar.

As for PSG away, well, no words and then we got caught out going for it against Milan.

Having said all that, we’d have struggled with injuries had we got through (so I’ve convinced myself).

Shocking how many fans have left. Wrong thread haha 

If he goes I think that’d be us needing to sell for FFP should a huge offer come in. He’s got a young family, knows he’s loved and has a genuine relationship with the players and management.

I can’t see him pushing for a move. My tip off about Big Jo signing his extension came via Bruno (I’ve a non football, very occasional, but cast iron link). I’m told Bruno seemed made up about Jo ‘s contract so it’d be a bit of surprise if he then pushed for a move himself. 

We’ve no chance of getting near Spurs or Villa but we’ve dropped some awful points along the way. That said, given our injuries we were always going to have some shockers.

Palace could be 3 up

Great goal

Signed until 2028. Not sure when it’ll be announced but it’s come almost from the horses mouth.

We had Pardew actively trying to sell our best players and Joe in charge of bringing in the replacements. Crazy times 

I’m imagining this is how he looked giving this interview. Pure gold.
