  1. It amused me when their manager's main complaint was that we wasted a bit of time in the first half. He's obviously completely oblivious to all the "crunching" tackles and sh*thouseary his players inflict on their opponents!
  2. Are Rovers negotiating to buy their old stand?
  3. Fifa are presumably equally happy with the theatre provided by the big clubs whilst the smaller clubs continue to be penalised for it?

    Crossing

    Many of our players aren't great at passing the ball but more frustrating sometimes is when we get so far up the pitch on the wings then go inside where all the defensive traffic is and lose the ball straight away.
  5. We need a player or two who will never get booked irrespective of their "gainsmanship"!
  6. You have the situation when a linesman can put up his flag when a player is in an offside position but sometimes only reacts if a "goal" is scored. So blatant fouls are disregarded because in hindsight they happened after a player was deemed to be in an offside position. I think that this gives the defenders a free hit to get away with murder if they anticipate the offside.
  7. They'll have kicked all the city players before that!
  8. As always, less said the better. It would be you who regretted it afterwards.
  9. The A I cameras are fine, it's the non A I humans that can't cope!
  10. Forest penalty turned down by VAR after ball hits Maguire's arm. Should we be surprised, would it have been a penalty at the other end? Maguire already on a yellow, presumably a penalty would have given him a second yellow card. What do I know?
  11. They have. We're just waiting for Somerset to fall on their cricket bats again!
  12. Just looking at our results since boxing day and out of 23 matches we've only lost 5, 1 to Manchester City and 4 in the league from the beginning of March so overall pretty good progress. More draws could have been wins (with or without the officials).
  13. Has Wilder bought himself another week?
  14. Bobby Reid could have been a long name at city@
  15. If they had had as many yellow and red cards as the average team gets they would have struggled for players.
  16. 2 matches out of the 8 currently playing today. If only they could play more of them in the summer months eg August!
  17. And for Sheffield united - Norwood and McBurnie who get away with it most weeks!
  18. Where did Sean Dickson come from?
  19. Someone on otib will be suggesting him in the summer.
  20. Apparently the VAR official for this match who neglected to tell the match ref that he should have awarded a penalty to Brighton has been penalised and will not be officiating this weekend. Meanwhile Stuart Attwell who failed to award the penalty carries on! What responsibility do match officials have now?
  21. Up against a Man Utd loanee?
