Dodgy Dave strikes again. His reflexes are top drawer. But how many mistakes has he made over the last few years with shots from range like that? So, so poor.

And, boy, do we need a striker who knows where the goal is.

Someone please tell Marcus Rashford that taking pot shots from 35 yards is not going to turn this game around. Unless Dodgy Dave is playing in goal for West Ham.

Never a penalty in a million years.


It’s one of those that you see being given because he is moving his arms towards the ball -if the ref gives it then VAR doesn’t overturn it and also VAR doesn’t give it if the ref doesn’t

No idea what the rule is but I was surprised it wasn’t given

Watching the replay then that’s one where VAR should be telling him to go to the screen

For me, that and and the one from the Newcastle game were clear handballs. I'd be livid if we were on the other end of those.

I think officials are so distracted by determining whether ball is close to body or not, they completely fail to check how it got there.

Man Utd were lucky with the penalty. They were unlucky to have De Gea in nets when he decided to have another shocker.

Leeds losing yesterday, Derby bottling it on the final day of the season is brilliant. As is Franchise FC being relegated to League 2.

Great footballing weekend all round.

Just hope Forest don’t ruin it tomorrow night 🫠
