Canât see him lasting that long tbh
Lukakuâs scored. Is it a leap year?
We are always shit with Matic and lollipop playing.
Not any more
Great result, that for me at least confirms weâre not pissing about anymore.
Soton looked the better side for a good chunk of that game. Credit to Utd for coming back from two down, but that performance really isnât good enough.
They still look clueless. You do wonder what on earth they are working on in training.
Well, yes. If they looked like they had a game plan it would be a start.
Mourinho seems to have passed his sell by date.
This was an odd incident yesterday.
the ball was stopped rather than being played forward to the guy making the cross.
Couldnât see anything wrong myself. Apart from the bad decision, obviously.
âPulis, whatâs the score? Pulis Pulis whatâs the score?â
What was wrong with it?
When the ball is played or touched is the wording on Law 11 on the FA website. I donât know if played forward used to be in the offside law, but it isnât now as far as I can see:
âA player in an offside position at the moment the ball is played or touched* by a team-mate is only penalised on becoming involved in active play by:â
*The first point of contact of the âplayâ or âtouchâ of the ball should be used
Apparently the highly paid ex player giving expert advise on the voice over hasnât read the law recently either
Baggies on Friday, well go like 5th if we win that on goal difference. Might even make the Herculean effort to go to a few games next year.
It seems the law has changed from my understanding of it. AFAIK it used to be based on the ball being played forward.
Mind you, itâs rather a long time since I played the game
Really looking forward to that. Most of my friends support the Tesco Bags, so lots of wind up opportunities.
The only thing Iâll say in their favour is they at least support their local team. Other than that theyâre Baggies twats.
I only have any idea as eldest has become a young ref in the past 18 months so we have actually read the rules recently
It becomes increasingly apparent that the âexpertsâ on tv and radio havenât ever bothered and just believe they know the rules as they used to run around on grass after a ball a few times a week
I am only wish I could be paid so much for so little knowledge, based on something completely different I used to do 20 years ago
Back to cynical it would appear
