Ignoring it isn’t really a viable option.

Came across this on SM. Looking at the teams it’s probably not a particularly high-standard league (tho Sheff Wed are in there) and I don’t know of the particular circumstances of this team, but this is insane 😂

I think what is probably the most likely option there.

Like Gordon, who would have been on 9 yellows and had three matches to get through to avoid a two match ban…

There was a couple of mins tagged onto the end of West Ham post-match. Only Downie asked a question.

Very good news if his back injury isn’t too serious. Given his age and all the games he’s had to play, you definitely feared an Anderson-type stress fracture.

Anything other than just cutting him loose is an absolutely horrific look, regardless of FFP. Extending and then selling even worse. It would make the persistent cries from Man Utd fans of ‘blood money’ directed at Man City, and, to a far lesser extent, ourselves, seem somewhat ironic.

Billy Bullshitter Energy Drink guy stirring it up again. Must be sniffing a cheap sale that he can’t remotely afford. https://x.com/richenergyceo/status/1774954155074838667?s=46&t=OQLMckSuatbpqWF13Al4mQ

If you want the ‘best in class’ you have to pay for it…

Indeed. Pay up then.

Absolutely nothing causes more fewm than someone apparently being a Mag. Every time.

Doesn’t appear that Wilder got booked for doing similar but also booting one of the spare balls into orbit? It’s either a rule or it’s not.

May have missed this somewhere further back, but did he get booked for simply running down the touchline a bit when the winner went in?

Nah, Eddie says it’s tendinitis in the achilles rather than actual damage to the achilles, so shouldn’t be anything major.

Nah, far too late now. They’d want a few weeks to sell the tickets to get a decent crowd in. Plus they’d probably have to change the actual date of the fixture given we’re playing Spurs at home that weekend.

How on earth did he manage to get back up and try and run it off!?

FFS we’re not ever signing Pickford man. *However, should I be proved wrong, that’s me signing up for a lifetime membership of RTG.

Indeed. The best part about it being he looked defensively capable, which has obviously been the question mark. Don’t think there’s ever been a question mark (at least IMO) about his ability in possession.

It’s been near enough confirmed (without being officially confirmed) that the clause is related to our league position. As long as we don’t finish 16th, he’s here for the foreseeable.

I felt he’d get 15 (all comps) pre-season. Feel like that was a fair shout.

Anyone else initially read this as “crashed a hire van at work, squared up to my boss, didn’t apologise”? 😂😂

Tbf, Eddie says there was “conflicting opinion”, so obviously at least one of the specialists was saying he’d be alright without surgery. So it’s not like it’s been clear he needed an op and we’ve just let him ignore it and say ‘nah, fuck it, I’ll be fine’. Always easier with hindsight now as well.

That was the 92nd minute as well. Would take a set of balls to let it fly that long if you had a significant wager on it.
