  1. It seems it was more about getting to the drs zone second. Maybe they need to consider a rule for such a eventuality
  2. 1pm They have to be seen to be consistent and so he got the standard penalty for causing a collision. Besides F1 now has the race it wants on Sunday with both drivers being on the same points. I never bought that they wanted Max to win as the scenario they’ve got is more valuable for increasing global exposure and the worldwide tv audience
  3. Pretty sure the competition rules give them 15% of the capacity which would give them the whole Atyeo stand, hopefully it doesn’t happen as would be more trouble than it’s worth with nothing to gain
  4. Has gone largely unnoticed with what happened at the front but for me the result of the day was Mazepin escaping without serious injury after a collision (for once not his fault) that reminded me of Billy Mongers which cost him both of his legs
  5. So was he one of Derby’s or one of ours? Was all a little bizarre
  6. Premiership ref so probably wondering what the hell he’s doing here
  7. I think he’s been decent, clearly up for it playing against his old team and is benefiting from having Semenyo up there as well
  8. Didn’t we lose at home to Bolton to a first minute goal in the mid 90’s?
  9. The problem isn’t parachute payments in isolation, it’s being magnified by ffp which then creates a double whammy effectively removing a clubs ability of keeping up with those relegated clubs and that then creates a derby scenario where a owner will try and use more creative ways to try and make up the shortfall and we all know how that turned out. Its naive of the efl to think that the problem is entirely of the premier leagues making. They could either amend the ffp rules for those who aren’t receiving parachute payments to even up the playing field or they could introduce a rugby style salary cap or they can continue what they’re doing it the moment is moaning about it and not much else What’s interesting is fans seem to view ffp breaches as cheating but grudgingly accept parachute payments when they’re basically the same thing
  10. He was the main man when i got into F1 with what seemed a conveyer belt of top drivers like Mansell, Prost, Senna (rip), Hill and Villeneuve. What he achieved whilst already impressive was all the more remarkable given the injuries he received in his 1986 car crash that perhaps should’ve taken his life and left him in a wheelchair. Feels like the end of an era in some ways even if the F1 world has moved on
  11. I’m more worried it could well be his second concussion in the space of a month, at the end of the day football is just a game his health is so much more important
  12. Surprising as his teams always tend to start slowly before clicking into gear
  13. For all those who complained about the sky commentary tonight they did comment on how fantastic the fans were towards the end
  14. Asking for consistency isn’t moaning though He did end up on the dirty side which screwed him, the penalty also put max on the clean side
  15. Could be I’m seeing something that isn’t there but i wonder if there was a psychological advantage reversing the end we normally attack second half yesterday. Having our fans behind us seemed to help us not retreating like we’ve done so many times at home lately Obviously there is the existing argument of having home fans behind both goals but as a stop gap is it worth us trying to attack the Atyeo end second half more often?
  16. Personally i don’t think it’s a penalty but i didn’t think Norris was a penalty in Austria or others. Now they need to be consistent not change things just because there’s a championship at stake. Hopefully they can start 2022 with fewer penalties and let the drivers sort things out between them which could make things interesting
  17. For anyone interested, i believe in miracles has dropped on Netflix and tells the story of how he took forest from the second division to European champions. Is well worth a watch
  18. Frank Williams always used to prioritise the constructors
  19. With the constructors championship being quite close it’ll be interesting to see how far they’re willing to go and which championship they’ll prioritise. The constructors one is where most from the prize money comes from after all
  20. I know what you mean would it have had anything to do with multi21? As he’s matured as a person i really like him now as well as respect what he’s achieved so wouldn’t necessarily say it’s particularly red bull related
  21. There is certainly an element of that and his standpoint on blm does make a certain proportion of the population uncomfortable. I won’t go any further as that subject has been done to death. There is also a certain amount of Hamilton winning fatigue which has nothing to do with his race, we had it when Schumacher was winning every week and winning the title every season and watching became pretty boring and to a lesser extent that was the case when Vettel was doing the same. I’m sure the German fans enjoyed it a little more though
  22. I actually wouldn’t have given him a penalty yesterday but would’ve made him give the place back
  23. Saw on Facebook that all tickets were £5 dunno whether that’s true or not
  24. I’ve heard it reported that Clough used alcohol to deal with his experience of being at Hillsborough, which makes sense as it was only after that things started coming off the rails
