  1. Loved it when Drysdale (I think) in the Championship had enough of it and squared up to half the Ipswich (I think) team and said something along the lines pf "what did you just fucking say to me? Come on then." He's not a small lad- they all shat their pants and backed down instantly then made official complaints about it after the match. Remember all the pearl-clutching grom the football media about how out of order it was for a referee to acr like that when players will do it to the ref 15+ times a game without a second thought. Footballers are proper fannies like- love giving it out but start crying as soon as they're on the receiving end.
  2. Think this is fair comment. Been reasonable between the boxes but toothless up front, wank at set pieces (both ends) and always susceptible to a quick counter attack
  3. Should be another 2 mins. Ball didn't get back in play until 92 minutes
  4. We've conceded the same goal so many times this calendar year. There just isn't a coherent plan when we lose it in the opposition half with men committed forward. It's a glaring flaw that no attempt has been made to fix and it's very frustrating.
  5. I'm glad this has been mentioned here. Thought I might have imagined it, nobody else I spoke to afterwards aeemed to have heard it. Was a minority obviously but definitely audible.
  6. And in turn PSG was a hell of a lot better than the away support in Milan and Dortmund which was woeful.
  7. I know what you're saying and tbh I was sat near the incident with a clear view and was convinced it was a nailed-on penalty at the time. I'm just anti-VAR in general and by "howler" I mean things like mistaken identity for a red card or giving a goal when the ball has gone wide of the posts. In this case, I can see why the ref's view might have been obscured and if it was, is it his fault he didn't see it properly. Also, we all know it would have been given if it was Man Utd or Liverpool but that's another story.
  8. What annoys me about that is that the ref has clearly signalled at the time that the ball had hit the defenders chest. Of course half the Gallowgate saw that it didn't, but if that's the reason it wasn't given and var can see there is contact with the hand then should they not be asking if he wants to have another look. Of course, another part of me thinks if we have to have VAR then it needs to be used sparingly and only for outrageous howlers so fair enough.
  9. Lovely move that, but scandalous penalty decision
  10. From the other end of the stadium it looked like he threw himself backwards into Gordon and hit the deck.
  11. That rule was changed a few years ago. I'm guessing to encourage the "play through the press" footall which has been the rage for the last 5 years.
