Re: ✍ Pablo Fornals

I still haven't seen any official announcement on any platform that says Pablo's moved on. Where's everyone getting this from? It's all here say, no? Same here. The only thing I've seen is this snippet from a post by Wilko 1304 in The Transfer thread: "Fornals bid from Betis not to our valuati...

Re: ✍ Kalvin Phillips

This is a shrewd signing, if he can regain his form from his Leeds days. It's hard to say what form he had for Man City as he barely ever played. It's honestly weird how little Guardiola played him given they paid £42m or whatever for him . I'll be interested to see where he slots in. Whisper it qu...

Re: Jurgen Klopp leaving Liverpool (non WHU!)

Often forgotten that we tried to bring him in as Allardyce's replacement back in 2015 in what would have been a statement appointment to coincide with the move to the Olympic Stadium. He turned us down and we ended up getting Bilic in. Very unlikely we would have got him in any circumstances as he ...

Re: Little things that irritate you

Are there any car insurance companies around now that will give insurance to a 17 year old that has just passed their test? He had a car in mind - the neighbour was going to help him out by selling her 2009 Corsa way below market price. I've just plugged all the details into Compare the Market, opt...

Going back to BFTP No.4.

I seem to remember Palace making a larger wall than usual and when the ball hit the back of the net, Ginge ran across the wall laughing in their faces.

Apparently the average price for a private MRI scan for a single body part is £395

You should have gone for the cat scan instead

You forgot the lab report afterwards Burnley!

Re: Nah, he plays as a Trequartista - but make sure someone holds in a double pivot

You can stick xG right up your arse , straight from the land of rainbows and unicorns I can't be doing with any stats, but this is the worst one for me. The thing that cracks me up with stats is a scenario like this: West Ham are 2-0 up against a Sky 4/5/6 darling with about 30 minutes to go. All o...

Re: Little things in life that make you smile

Don't know if this is a smile or an irritate, so let's call it a wry grin. The sports news on BBC Breakfast this morning: With Chelsea's emphatic win last night, they're through to the "showpiece" final at Wembley. I wonder if would have been a showpiece final if it was Middlesbrough and F...

Re: Little things that irritate you

Vets - upselling, profiteering gits who prey on your feelings towards your pets. I swear they are on commission or have financial targets to meet. Not so much commission or targets, but the money they make in general. Donkey's years ago, my cat had to be operated on and given aftercare when (I thin...

Re: Sheffield Utd v West Ham Utd - Match Thread

I make you bang on Doc.

Over the years, I've been to watch the mighty Sutton United and I have to say, it's pretty much always been a decent, honest game.

The fans do seem to accept a vast majority of the decisions as well.

Re: Sheffield Utd v West Ham Utd - Match Thread

The thing with Salisbury is the pressure he's put on himself when he officiates his next game. A big part of me, no f**k it, all of me hopes it's full of contentious incidents. Just out of curiosity, do these officials get together on any form of basis (regular or otherwise) and review games such as...

Re: Sheffield Utd v West Ham Utd - Match Thread

It was clear from the episode when the Liverpool VAR communications were made public that the process was far too chummy. The results of this are the use of VAR for ass-covering and refs. passing the decision-making buck. These consequences may be unintended but they were surely predictable. No nee...

Re: Sheffield Utd v West Ham Utd - Match Thread

The whole farce is a butterfly effect from the refs first error which was to only award a yellow to Brewster - the subsequent time and yellow card as a result of that weak decision had a massive effect I alluded to something similar several pages back cc. I just wish that the referees would be a bi...

Well he managed to embarrass himself from the first red onwards, so the other train of thought is that VAR could have saved his blushes.
