Well, Saints are back in this with plenty of time to go. Erm, ace that the ethics report on Gaetz is being released at long last; shite, Dow plunges by over 1100 points. Michael Kenrick 2 Posted 18/12/2024 at 21:52:35 That Brentford goal… was it even checked for offside? Rob Halligan 3 Posted 18/12/2024 at 21:55:45 No VAR in these games, Michael. Gabriel Jesus was way offside when he scored his second for Arsenal. Edward Rogers 4 Posted 18/12/2024 at 21:58:26 They truly are the Devil's team😤 Rob Halligan 5 Posted 18/12/2024 at 22:10:11 Edward, that was a clear foul in the last minute for Southampton on the edge of the area, may even been a penalty, but Hooper gave nothing. Would VAR have overturned Hoopers decision and give the penalty, if it was in the area? Paul Ferry 6 Posted 18/12/2024 at 22:22:04 Commentators said much the same thing Rob. We can hope that North London take care of the skunks and shite in the semis. Don Alexander 7 Posted 18/12/2024 at 23:44:23 Clear foul in the area but the duffer with the whistle was already waving it permissible even before the full extent was viewable.Football? Bent! Michael Kenrick 8 Posted 19/12/2024 at 20:08:34 Okay, meanwhile, back on the grass...Spurs and Man Utd giving it a good go — with no VAR!! Paul Ferry 9 Posted 19/12/2024 at 20:16:14 Solanke took that well. Rashford high fiving with the Salford crew. Thanks for setting this up MK. Paul Ferry 10 Posted 19/12/2024 at 20:20:07 No one at the moment can slump to lows and rise to highs quite like the Spurs. It would drive me nuts if I was unlucky enough to support them. I don't think that this fares well for Postecoglou (especially if he does not win something in his second year; a really dumb thing to say, up there with he doesn't pay attention to the fans, or words to that effect: it was a headline). Rob Halligan 11 Posted 19/12/2024 at 20:21:57 Jeez, imagine the three teams I despise the most in the semi final of a cup. Only one winner for me if so! 🤞🤞🤞 Michael Kenrick 12 Posted 19/12/2024 at 20:24:24 Not sure we'll get many takers, Paul, although I don't recognize what they are playing… Is this what they call 'front-foot' football? Paul Ferry 13 Posted 19/12/2024 at 20:24:49 I mentioned that yesterday Rob! The 'teta t-shirt is in the post mate. It's still 16B Jimmy Tarbuck Grove, Kensington, right? Paul Ferry 14 Posted 19/12/2024 at 20:28:33 According to some MK, Friedkin apparently does not like our style of play (although I also read somewhere that he's not keen on footy). 'I will insist on fast wide players and full-backs who race past their winger', he reportedly said according to my 'inside source'. Rob Halligan 15 Posted 19/12/2024 at 20:28:35 Paul, I dont live in a run down area like that! Unless you mean Kensington in Liverpool! James Flynn 16 Posted 19/12/2024 at 20:29:28 Conference league:Rovers equalize vs Chelsea. 1-1 in the 25th minute. Rovers away crowd raucous. Paul Ferry 17 Posted 19/12/2024 at 20:33:16 I know! Calderstones snob. Paul Ferry 18 Posted 19/12/2024 at 20:36:02 The New Saints are drawing away too. Hearts, of course, are losing. Man Utd are getting battered here by the Dr Jekyll spuds side. On the Hyde side, they've lost more Prem. games than us. Paul Ferry 19 Posted 19/12/2024 at 20:43:44 ah, 3-1 now. We need to make a loan bid for Dewsbury-Hall. Arsenal are sniffing around him on loan apparently, but how will he get serious minutes there? Paul Ferry 20 Posted 19/12/2024 at 20:49:59 'No questions' tells us all we need to know RH. At least you never say that when you bump into folks when out walking the dog! Paul Ferry 21 Posted 19/12/2024 at 20:51:12 Rob, do you have any idea who is in charge of the team for Sunday? Billy Bradshaw 22 Posted 19/12/2024 at 21:00:14 A lot of decent people live in Kensington Liverpool. Paul Ferry 23 Posted 19/12/2024 at 21:04:37 I know some of them Billy and one of them is my music idol. Paul Ferry 24 Posted 19/12/2024 at 21:06:56 wow that was a quick restart Rob Halligan 25 Posted 19/12/2024 at 21:07:25 Paul, I would say 100% Sean Dyche, and thats without any reliable source telling me! Rob Halligan 26 Posted 19/12/2024 at 21:13:10 Well thats game over! Michael Kenrick 27 Posted 19/12/2024 at 21:14:39 Excellent strike by Solanke. Not fair to strike the ball so cleanly. He needs to learn how to scuff it properly. Paul Ferry 28 Posted 19/12/2024 at 21:14:50 Brilliant goal. Game over. I wish I was playing Spuds at the weekend because they will lose.We should move for Johnny Evans. He ticks most of our boxes. Paul Ferry 29 Posted 19/12/2024 at 21:20:29 That twat with the fuzzy gozzy hair just scored for Chelseea. Rob Halligan 30 Posted 19/12/2024 at 21:23:44 Ridiculous goal to concede by Spurs. Forster trying to be the clever arse passes out almost along the by-line only for Fernandes to intercept and give Kirkzee a tap in. Rob Halligan 31 Posted 19/12/2024 at 21:29:56 Forster fucks up again…..3-2. Trying to clear and closed down by Diallo who blocks the clearance into the net. Paul Ferry 32 Posted 19/12/2024 at 21:30:27 Here we go on the Spurs roller-coaster ride once more. ANGE OUT!!!!!!!!! Liam Mogan 33 Posted 19/12/2024 at 21:31:12 Frazer Frankenstein Michael Kenrick 34 Posted 19/12/2024 at 21:31:13 OMG! Absolutely fucking brilliant from Amad! Rob Halligan 35 Posted 19/12/2024 at 21:35:34 I wonder if Amorin can “smell the fear” emanating from Spurs players? Liam Mogan 36 Posted 19/12/2024 at 21:37:00 Poor Forster can Smell the Glove Paul Ferry 37 Posted 19/12/2024 at 21:41:33 That Amad is some find. Man-U look like they will get a third. What the feck did Forster kick that for!!!!! Rob Halligan 38 Posted 19/12/2024 at 21:44:38 Jeez, hope Forster does better this weekend than what hes been like tonight. Rob Halligan 39 Posted 19/12/2024 at 21:47:11 Straight in from a corner from Son. 4-2. Paul Ferry 40 Posted 19/12/2024 at 21:47:58 That's that then. Rob's semi-nightmares can begin. Michael Kenrick 41 Posted 19/12/2024 at 21:49:03 You don't see that very often anymore!But I hate that fucker Son. Liam Mogan 42 Posted 19/12/2024 at 21:49:41 Quite laughable goalkeeping in this game Rob Halligan 43 Posted 19/12/2024 at 21:51:45 Neither are first choice, Liam, but even so, they shouldnt have been conceding goals the way they have. Liam Mogan 44 Posted 19/12/2024 at 21:52:50 Never forgiven Son for that snide and nasty trip on Andre Gomes which was premeditated and sly.He somehow got a pass and his red card rescinded as 'he's not that type of guy'. Rubbish, what he did was a clear example of putting another player in danger. Rob Halligan 45 Posted 19/12/2024 at 21:54:16 4-3. Not quite over yet. Paul Ferry 46 Posted 19/12/2024 at 21:54:20 Evans! I said we should get him in. Paul Ferry 47 Posted 19/12/2024 at 21:55:10 Mancs rushing back in Liam Mogan 48 Posted 19/12/2024 at 21:55:24 Both of these slammed us 4 0 and we never looked like scoring even though both are shite at the back Paul Ferry 49 Posted 19/12/2024 at 21:57:50 What you trying to tell us LM? Liam Mogan 50 Posted 19/12/2024 at 21:59:26 We are absolutely shite at scoring goals Paul Paul Ferry 51 Posted 19/12/2024 at 22:00:48 Ah, I get it, but we are good at conceding them though. Paul Ferry 52 Posted 19/12/2024 at 22:01:33 I hate that fucking song. Liam Mogan 53 Posted 19/12/2024 at 22:04:56 Fucking crap these stadiums that start sticking boxing tunes for coked up meffs at full time. Paul Ferry 54 Posted 19/12/2024 at 22:06:50 Couldn't agree more Liam. What's wrong with easy listening. Mick Head loves his Burt Bacarrach Liam Mogan 55 Posted 19/12/2024 at 22:09:01 Burt Bacharach loves 'Streets of Kenny' and William Shatner never lived until he visited the Dingle. Paul Ferry 56 Posted 19/12/2024 at 22:14:02 Bacharach. What was I thinking of? I've adored him for 4 decades or so.
