    There's people who are "just glad the correct decision was reached". 

    The ETH team might not be the worst Man U team of their banter era, but they are the mentally weakest team I think iv ever seen

    I hate folk who come out with that, as though the rules can’t be shit and wrong.

    Should be clear daylight to be offside imo. The attacker has zero advantage being a millimetre closer to the goal than the defender. 

    Yeah agreed. I saw there was a suggested change of that and I’d be all for it.

    What's worse there's some smug b*****ds at VAR HQ delighted because they reached the "correct decision"

    I doubt they are tbh, I reckon the Refs know the offside rules are just as shite as we do.

    Didn't watch the game, but those are 50/50 at best for me. Don't understand the outrage at them not being given. 

     

    Referring to the two involving Ashley Young, didn't see the third one people are on about. 

    Honestly? The handball and the 3rd (Young’s tackle) are about as close to stonewall as they come.
     

    What is natural about that hand position? Especially when you see the one given against Wan Bissaka in the Cup just now, his arm was much closer to his side. They said on Sky that was the basis it wasn’t given, because the hand was in a natural position. Mad

    All three were penalties, but not only did VAR wave them away, they did so very quickly. 

    I know England is generally more efficient with VAR, but I don’t see how there was sufficient time in any of the checks for a proper examination and discussion between the VAR and AVAR. 

    That’s what I was thinking as well. They didn’t seem to spend any time on it really.

    I know they look at things as the game goes on but they’ll often stop play if it takes a bit of time so it doesn’t get too far ahead before pulling things back for an offence.

    I fucking love him.

    A piss boiler of a goalkeeper that can back it up is class.

    Jordan Pickford tries to do similar stuff but he's shite playing for relegation fodder so just looks like a p***k doing it.

    I do as well. He’s just a bit of a wind-up merchant, I don’t think he’s ever done anything that’s especially nasty or awful, just taking the piss and trying to put the opposition off.  I get it if you are playing him mind, he’d be annoying as f**k.

    BOOOO! Cutting out during Sweet Caroline, they've got no heart.

    If they had a heart they wouldn’t have broadcast it in the first place. Shit song.

    Apart from that though, I’m over the moon that Leverkusen have done it. It’s great that someone beat the Bayern stranglehold but more than that they are a great club and it’s superb to see them win their first League title.

    I still enjoy Arsenal having an absolute shite time of it for the way their fans treated Wenger.

    It's even more joyous that it's their other former manager that's inflicting this misery on them.

    Get it fucking up the lot of them.

    Emery as well, he may not have been the best manager (though they never gave him much time to show it) but the racial abuse he got was awful and he didn’t deserve what he got.

    I fucking love that they are the ones to beat them so close to the end of the season. 

  9. Shame about Hickey but there’s time between May and June for him to recover and as said above I’d have a half fit him over Patterson and Ralston right now.

    Good news here though, Gilmour should be fine (barring anything new! Don’t want to jinx it).

  10. The commentary has been brutal, all about how Newcastle have loads of injuries, poor Newcastle having to stay in financial fair play etc. It’s like they choose a team and decide to be fan tv for a game.

    I thought sticking your foot in between the kicker and the ball was a foul in favour of the kicker. 

    It should be tbh. Its a bit of a joke that you can shove your foot in front of a player who is kicking the ball to create contact, and then that be given as a pen.

    82% possession, 14 shots to 4. And Northern Ireland still looked the better team by far.The stats don't lie. Michael O'Neill should aim for single digit possession figures.

    N Ireland did not look the better team by far. They did f**k all and wouldn’t even have their goal if Patterson hadn’t fucked it. 

  13. Just got back home.

    That was the worst game I’ve watched since the last time we played Northern Ireland. It was also fucking freezing, also like the last time we played Northern Ireland. I am sensing a pattern and I hope we learnt our lesson which is to never play those boring c***s again. 

    Well if we are going to have a shit patch, then I don’t mind it being now, as long as we can get out of soon, at least in time for Germany.

    I didn’t think we were awful but when we had the ball at the back, the movement from the forward players was poor, more than once Tierney, Gilmour, Patterson etc had the ball and no real options. 

    N Ireland tackles were shocking and I hope Robertson isn’t as badly injured as he looked.
