No. Worrying.

Sounds like someone's had a go at him for leaving early

First nine minutes were fine. Everything went to hell over a period of only twelve minutes.

Still love Rafa. www.bbc.com/sport/av/football/64682034

Chris Hughton would have been better than any of these.

Absolutely love the guy, but if he hadn't got himself sent off with less than ten minutes left in a game when we were two goals up, I bet we'd have picked up a couple more points in the last two games.

https://www.bbc.com/sport/africa/64603833 Awful. Didn't realize his kids and their mother are in Newcastle.

Single-hung windows that decide they'd rather be double-hung?

It's ridiculous. 1st question: "How pleased are you . . . ? 2nd question: "How important was it . . . ? 3rd question: "How pleased were you . . . ? 4th question: "How resilient did the team have to be . . .? etc. etc. etc.

"Thank you, Amanda. I love you so much. Thank you for bringing our club back." Just about lost it there.

Yes, would be a bit of a stretch. Missed that move.

Agent Carroll already knackered Eriksen and then got sent off for trying to take out Casemiro. Maybe Ayoze could be persuaded to get stuck in when they play Leicester the Sunday before the final.

No. That spot in the Europa Conference League would be given to the next highest Premier League finisher. https://www.90min.com/posts/do-the-carabao-cup-winners-qualify-for-european-football#:~:text=Do the Carabao Cup winners qualify for Europe%3F,Europa Conference League qualifying round.

Ginola. Ferdinand, Albert?

It was notorious Mackem hack Louise Taylor who brought up the Simeone thing at Eddie's last press conference.

Evidently well connected in the bald community.

Sam "Pint o' Wine" Allardyce says Hello.

I know it shouldn't, but it bugs me when players are constantly making the sign of the cross and/or pointing to the heavens at every opportunity -- when the game is about to start, coming on as a substitute, after scoring, when the final whistle blows etc. I think it started in American sports and spread over here. Just once I'd like to see a Satanist player score a goal and point downwards towards Hades.

The Chelsea 2004-05 statistic is "across all competitions." Once you add in their goals conceded in the Champions League, FA Cup etc it comes out to 33 goals in 59 games which equals 0.56 goals per game. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2004–05_Chelsea_F.C._season

Does seem to be infallible, tbh.

Don't mind sports idioms in general so much, but Bruce idioms still trigger me something awful.

He did push Bruno in the chest with both hands just as the ref was pulling out the cards to send him off. Think that might have motivated Murphy's piss-taking.

He said "We have to dust ourselves down" for the second time in a row. Needs to cut that out immediately.
