We'd like to take this opportunity to wish you a Happy Holidays and a very Merry Christmas from all at Golf Monthly. Thank you for sharing your 2025 with us!
Arsenal v Palace
You can always tell how enthralling the action is……….
When the commentators are talking anything except what’s happening on the pitch!
Modern footy 🙄

And ultimately the coach(es) who promote this nonsense of...
Well, as it’s written….”you can be disqualified for that”, then at that point all he’s done is hit a second ball. There’s no suggestion that he then played the first ball.
It might be assumed, I suppose, but for Player B to suggest disqualification at the point he did ( as written), says he was...
