I mean, you're allowed to head/nod it back and a keeper collect/pick it up, so maybe a back 'pass' is only not allowed by the foot.

Stupid, like. If your gonna allow them in all but feet, just allow them again... unless its clear/blatant timewasting like it used to be used for.

What’s he done?

 

 

 

Described Nancys time at Celtic as ‘an absolute holocaust’

 

I guess Shay never did history in school

Best/worst one I've seen 

 

"Commentating on the Argentina–Romania match in the 1994 FIFA World Cup, Hansen said that "the Argentine defender warrants shooting for a mistake like that". The previous day, Colombian defender Andrés Escobar had been shot dead, a killing widely attributed to punishment for an own goal Escobar scored in Colombia's 2–1 loss to the United States earlier in the same tournament. The BBC issued a public apology for Hansen's poor choice of words."

Never heard anyone use it that way. So strange

 

I mean.. technically... the dictionary definition of the word could fit into a hyperbolic appraisal of a poor footballing performance, but I'm somewhat dubious that Shay knew the Collins definition of the word and yet somehow missed that it was associated with one of the most notoriously awful human tragedies of all time. 

 

Bit of an oversight if so.

Bubbles is up there in my top three favourite characters from TV, of all time

My bad I didn't think to add spoilers on a... 23 year old show? Fuck man :mick:

 

Spoiler

Watching Big Match Revisited from Feb 1977, it’s Arsenal v West Ham from Highbury. And I’m thinking it’d be ace to see a couple of current top flight sides have to play in a 1977 stylee

 

Kits

Boots

Churned up pitch

Mud 

Ref

Rules

Keepers with bare hands 

1 x subs 

1-11 numbers on shirts

Ball

Haircuts

 

 

It’d sort the men from the boys

Watched an England Scotland game from the 1970’s. Over 140,000, at Hampden Park.

 

 

and this from the match report: 

 

The referee called captains Bobby Moore and Billy McNeill together and ordered them to tell their players to calm things down after forty-six free-kicks had been awarded in the first thirty minutes. 
 

 

:lol:

Could've probably be a thread, but what are you most jealous of other teams for? 

 

For me I've seen this probably 7-8 times

 

If we're talking Man United, probably being able to still bag 7 or 8 trophies while being largely dogshit and in their banter era is where the jealousy would start and end.

 

Although aye, I did see someone in the Stone Roses gear in the snooker club a while back and thought it looked class until I realised what it was

We need an aggressive time limit for throw ins. Watching games as a neutral these days can be a bit of a chore waiting for all these throws.

 

Should have a time limit and do the countdown thing refs do when keepers have it, the throw in goes to the other side if they go over the limit
