  1. Longstaff falls over, loses ball, lies on ground whinging at ref. Classic Longstaff hat trick to set up the goal
  2. Just shite play by Longstaff. I wouldn’t have given it either - he was absolutely looking for it
  3. What cunts with drums at football never seem to understand is that they’re the only fuckers enjoying it. No-one else wants them banging the fucking thing
  4. They were due to come on on 60 mins but we’ve been unable to get the ball back for 5 mins
  5. Poor first half, but it’s still evens and I would have taken that before the match. Got to improve second half though
  6. Then they’re either deliberately watering the pitch like this, or the PL need to find out if their ground meets regs
  7. I don’t think Selhurst Park has proper pitch drainage - absolutely ridiculous this
  8. That Tory cunt MP who was chairman at Luton was desperate to turn his on. Those things killed 97 people at Hillsborough - scary to imagine how that day could have been worse, but I reckon electrified fences would be one way it could have been.
  9. Yeah, the Ibrox Tournament. That’s burned into my brain too - we beat Man Utd on pens, then I went with my dad to watch the final vs Samp in the local. Lombardo absolutely tortured us … edit: England’s status in Europe wasn’t great. When we blew the title, it isn’t often remarked upon how English sides faired in Europe. Man Utd were put out by Rotor Volgograd; Blackburn finished bottom of a CL group with Legia Warsaw, Rosenberg and Spartak Moscow; Leeds were hammered 8-3 by PSV; Forest knocked out by Auxerre after scraping past Malmo on away goals; Liverpool couldn’t get past Brondby; and Everton lost to Feyenoord. Hard to imagine that set of results today - I reckon there’d be a national enquiry
  10. Yeah, it’s carved into an old quarry. Always thought it would be a great ground to visit
  11. Hey, it could be a manager living with his sporting director’s recruitment strategy for all we know.
  12. Haven’t played them; would be a cracking away game; outside of the ‘big three’, they’re as successful as any other Portuguese club
  13. Count me in the ranks of the non-plussed. I think the man is an expert salesman, if nothing else. He’s a delegator and an administrator.
  14. Got you. Yeah, I like your list - the only one I’d swap out would be Ferencvaros - though only because I’ve already been there to see NUFC play in the UEFA Cup (was also at the home game when Ginola scored a peach)
