DB Premier League is not expensive here. About £70/annum, and you legally get every game in HD quality. I used to use pirate sites, but for £70, it is well worth it for perfect legal quality.
Championship Stoke City 3 - 0 Plymouth Argyle :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

Points 48; Position 20

The only (biggest) problem, is that most of the games have a KO time when I’m usually 😴 and in all honesty the few games that I have seen live, tend to be boring for >50% of the time, so for me, it’s probably not worth it :cheers:

Agreed 100%. Any fine would have to be huge to have any meaningful impact on a top-level footballer - 6 or even 7 figures.
Well, it's academic for now. Astonishingly, although the club has been charged with failing to control their players, Haaland himself isn't even getting a slap on the wrist.
This is the way

It will be interesting to hear what the ref has to say about his decision making process - not that it excuses the players reaction but you can understand them being upset!!

West Ham have offered a £25,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and successful prosecution of burglars who broke into Kurt Zouma's home.
That's jolly decent of the club. I'm sure Mr Zouma wouldn't have wanted to give up the equivalent of a day's salary to do it himself...

Quite a few funny edits online of Haaland's antics at the weekend :D

To say that Arsenal left it late would be an understatement - just after the allocated 6 minutes of extra time, Rice scores the winner!!

"Full strength Arsenal find late winner at Luton to spare blushes".

Is how I'm analysing today. :laugh:

Man City were brought down to earth last night after being totally outplayed by Villa and fortunate to only lose 1-0. Far too early to write them off but it showed that when they’re not at full strength, they are beatable!!

This could be the most open season in a long time.

No Timber, no Zinchenko, no Partey.

Kiwior starting and Kai Havertz ermmm, on the pitch.

Think the keeper saves that shot if it wasn't deflected

But looked like Villa thoroughly deserved the win

Timber's only played 1 prem game for you. No significant run of form in first 11. I'm sure he'll be a starter after his injury, mind. Partey? The midfielders you have in his place are at the same standard or better. Kiwior to Zinchenko was a downgrade, I'll give you that one. :wink:

22 shots at goal to Man City's 2. TWO.

Absolute mauling. Tottenham should have could have beaten this Villa team if we finished our chances. City haven't won in four now. Same as us. 😂

Not to mention the better keep is being ‘rested’ on the beach at the moment.
