Re: Francois van der Elst

Best of luck to him.

I'll never forget the cup game at Notts County. Stuck out on the wing he'd hardly had a kick then John Lyall moves him to centre forward and he scores a hat-trick!

Re: West Ham United V Manchester United: Match Thread

Jose has been putting pressure on officials all season and this is how it manifests itself. Yep. Although I just put the sending off and offside goal down to gross incompetence by the officials at first. We know, well most of us do we wouldn't of got those decisions if the roles had been reversed.

Or , to put it another way: ****, my World Champion has bottled his title defence and retired, and my other driver is really pissed off with me.... Yep. Hamilton and Rosberg should have been left to get on with it. By any means necessary as long as they didn't deliberately crash into each other. I ...

Payet had a poor game but still created more chances than any other PL player at the weekend.

How does Lukaku get away with not at least getting a yellow, if not a red for the elbow in the first half. :eh:

I've just read the last couple of pages and caught up with the news that Sam Westley is in our 25 man PL squad!

It's not that obvious after you said about not giving up possession to a possession side. Then put a team up that would be terrible at keeping the ball. I can only respond to what you actually put on here.

Sky have spoken. The ref will put it in his report that he saw it and deem it an accidental clash.

Re: Manchester City vs West Ham Utd : match thread

What I don't understand is when you play a possession side you don't give up possession. Adrian Byram Reid Ogbonna Masuaka Noble Obiang kouyate Antonio. Valencia Fletcher Are you suggesting that side would keep posession against a side like Man City? As you seem quite keen on saying, **** off! :D

Re: Manchester City vs West Ham Utd : match thread

The one thing that makes us second rate is how we often rush the ball. If we really have ambitions, please look at how top tier teams play. Technically very competent, great fitness and having plenty of time on the ball. Top tier teams have top tier players. Man City could have been out of site by ...

Re: Formula 1 2016 Thread

Hamilton got lucky with the safety car and the red flag.

I do wonder though about the tyre strategy after that and whether he could have got second place. Although it's easy to say with hindsight when they weren't sure how tyres would last beforehand.

Re: The 2016 summer transfer thread

Why are people saying we have no money just because this is a loan deal? We just threw £20 million at Ayew, but people expect us to them throw another £25 million at Zaza? Loan deal with an option makes more sense to me. We have also given Cresswell, Antonio, Payet and Randolph new contracts. Signe...
