I'm going to adjust this statement a little. I hadn't seen the Skipp challenge on Diaz. Ankle breaker. Both teams should have had players sent off. So can't be to upset about the Jota one.

Re: Premier League 2022-23
As a manager, the Liverpool v Spurs game must have been a nightmare, but as a neutral, a truly entertaining game - goals a plenty and almost as much controversy, in should there have been one or two red cards? For what it’s worth, I think either both or neither was the fairest outcome, but I’m sure not everyone will agree, especially if you’re a Spurs or Liverpool supporter!!
Re: Premier League 2022-23
A few surprises in the line-ups for Arse vs Chelsea. Aubameyang starting against his former club. Martinelli benched.
Come on Chelsea, you've surely got ONE good performance in you still.

Okee dokee, plan B. Hope Chelsea get absolutely embarrassed here now.

They let me down losing to the Arse but it's still fun watching the £600+ million injected damp squib at work.

I hadn’t realised that time wasting was such an issue, but this seems to infer it’s by no means an accident!!

Interesting, and probably not an accident. There's a huge difference in times.Dannie Boy wrote: ↑Wed May 03, 2023 6:18 pm I hadn’t realised that time wasting was such an issue, but this seems to infer it’s by no means an accident!!
The solution seems obvious to me. Instead of sticking religiously to the 45 mins + a fairly random stoppage time, just stop the clock when the ball goes out of play.
This is the way

Haaland gets his record breaking goal. Most ever scored in a prem season. With 5 games left to play. Man's a machine.

Re: Premier League 2022-23
Great game as per the MOTD highlights - either side could have won but woodwork and great goal-keeping by both keepers just edged it Arsenal’s way, which I think was just about right - correct penalty decision too (thank goodness for VAR?).

The prem is so unpredictable. Who saw this Everton result coming?

The Colonel? Well, he might not of seen it coming, but he will definitely be happy with the result, which gives them a lifeline!!
Elsewhere, Forest managed a win to lift themselves out of the relegation zone and push Southampton closer to the inevitable, whereas 2016 Champions Leicester dropped in, with a tame defeat at Fulham!!

Correct, I didnt see that coming at all. Could've been 6 up at HT with better finishing.Dannie Boy wrote:The Colonel? Well, he might not of seen it coming, but he will definitely be happy with the result, which gives them a lifeline!!

Just could've done with Saints beating Forest for extra breathing space but shan't complain.
Still in trouble, must beat Wolves & Cherries. Naturally expecting a wholly different game on Saturday at home to City

Re: Premier League 2022-23
Quite strange that in all three games, the team that lost had more shots on goal than the team that won - it’s obviously all about putting them in the back of the net!!Dannie Boy wrote: ↑Tue May 09, 2023 5:41 amThe Colonel?
