    I am not sure that the rules allow it, but in my opinion, Senegal should have forfeited the game for refusing to play… to take the players off for 17 minutes because you disagree with a decision is simply ridiculous.

    In cricket, if one team continues to refuse to play they forfeit the match.

    Look I know it's not the done thing and teams should play regardless of decisions made by officials and managers, but can you honestly say you didn't feel our players should have left the field when Kilman was introduced on Saturday.

    Made me laugh too, but Kilman must be feeling very low, and the general pile-on of 'let's blame someone (Kilman atm) for everything ' won't help him or the team.
    Unless we all blame Paqueta of course, I'm all for that 😉😁

    Dreadful decision to award Bournemouth a penalty (after a VAR intervention) against Brighton last night, exactly the sort of decision we should move away from. There's the slightest bit of contact, but the player throws himself to the ground. The sort of decision Man Utd have been getting for years, but the contact didn't make the player fall over, and the ref shoulda stuck by his original decision of simulation.

    And guess who was the muppet VAR, our old friend Aussie Jarred Gillet.

    Craig Pawson is also more in the spotlight atm for being on VAR for two of the more contentious decisions on red card challenges.

    He did okay in our match against Spurs ( as ref ) IMO....

    Couple of things, bit random.

    Was reading the build up to CL matches and saw this.

    Djibril Cissé, Lord of Frodsham and a former player of both these sides, is also at the Vélodrome. The Frenchman, now 44, is looking sharp.


    Lord of Frodsham 😆

    Also was reminded that when I was in Marseille at Xmas, I went to the big cathedral Notre Dame de la Garde on the hill outside the city. All very impressive (bit of a slog uphill, though).

    It is an important symbol for the city, and is important to players and fans of OM.
    The have a strong connection to it, and give votive offerings, or have tifos related to it at matches...

    Anyway, I was wandering around some of the crypt areas and corridors and saw two football shirts framed and displayed. One was Payet's. I did take a pic but for some reason I can't upload it.

    I know, I know - we don't all love him.

    But it was great, wasn't it, when he was great for us. Lighting up the PL. There were some happy happy joy joy moments.


    That free kick.

    Blimey. Liverpool score, because nobody from Marseille wanted to be the sad draught excluder.
  • IronHerbIronHerb
    Forest are almost certainly going into the Europa play offs following tonights loss to Braga. A couple of extra games they could do without.

    Real shame MGW couldn't have missed the penalty at the LS than the one last night.

    So Haaland is on the bench against Wolves, I wonder how many other FF managers had Captained him this week,

    I can only assume that Pep does not have him in his FF team……..the fix is in

    I dunno. I don't think they'll need him, and if Pep wants him to have a rest he should get a proper rest.

    ( Mine's Thiago.)

    What are you all talking about?

    Fantasy football
    Your captain gets you double points
    If they don’t play, your vice captain steps up 💪🏿
  • BubblesNeverDiesBubblesNeverDies
    How was Silva's rugby tackle on Strand Larsen not a penalty. Oh, silly me, he plays for a big team.
  • Ravel49Ravel49
    And Haalands on….
