Big Juurrr is 1 yellow away from a 2 match ban.

In fairness, if he's going to get a yellow, this game is probably the best time to do it, with Leicester and Man United up next.

So stupid how easy it is to get banned, you can get yellow cards for nothing. Bad for the game and the fans. 

 

There is an argument to be had that "types" of yellow cards should be categorized.

 

So that, for example, taking your shirt off or time wasting still receive an on-field yellow card but they don't count towards a ban. Probably a bit unnecessary and players should be be more careful not to get stupid cards for things like that.

If time wasting yellow cards didn’t count towards a ban there’d be about 8 yellow cards in the last 10 mins of every game where a team was one goal up.

What we even doing man... [emoji38]

 

Joelinton is an absolute shithouse and consistently fouls and roughs up opponents. I wouldn't change him for the world but we can't exactly argue that a ban wouldn't be "fair". [emoji38]

 

I don't want some diluted Joelinton either. I want the whole hog and if that means the odd ban, so be it.

 

What we need is squad to cope. It's a good chance to see if Miley or Willock can step up.

Aye I don't think it's particularly unfair with a ban after 10 yellows 

Not like in Sweden where it's 3 games for a ban, and it doesn't reset at all during the season.

Not Joe’s fault he’s as strong as a bull in a game played by rabbits.

 

Also, a ban for Burn is harsh.

I agree with this. Just feel the threshold should be higher than 5 & 10. Maybe 10 & 15 🤷🏼‍♂️

Gordon pushing a man over and Schär looking at someone - and each getting three game bans - is where it's fucking stupid. However, Mr Joelinton Cássio Apolinário de Lira repenting for some cumulative foul play is - I would say - the most fair enough thing that's ever happened in the history of the sport.

Bit gutted that tomorrow is 'back to normal', I want to stay in this surreal bubble [emoji38]

 

Watching them play again feels.... weird.

 

Anyway, Brentford are on five successive away wins, so this is a potential banana skin. Hope we're switched on.

Like when you’ve nutted but they keep sucking 

 

I’m so sorry. It’s gross. I’m leaving.

Didn't realise this lot were only six points behind us.

 

We have played a game less though. So hopefully will be 9pts by the end of the game.

 

4th to 12th is separated by 10pts. Its been an exciting season so far and I think the next couple of months will be even more so.

 

Who cares if we basically already know who's relegated and who has won the league, eight teams with something big still to play for.
