Can say this of most things that make people happy

I think keeping it on the telly for everyone is important to give people escapism
 
I actually agree with them.
But if you’re use to going to the match,watching it on the TV isn’t really the same.
It’s not the same, but it’s better than nothing.

My Nan has been going since before season tickets started, now she’s got my old iPad, facetime catch ups after the games with her friends is her only social outlet.
 
I agree. I was annoyed when the poxy media ruined his England gig. I thought he might have been ideal for us at the time, given how he can coax good performances out of bang average overrated players. It's a shame he never got the chance.

Imagine being a Sunderland fan, we would still be in the premier league if he had stayed.
 
Play better for 15 mins, get the equaliser, then its Gabriels turn to self implode and get himself sent off :(

Takes our best midfielder off, moves our most creative player to left back and brings the clown on for the last half hour :(
 
Don’t get the overturning of the Leicester penalty decision. Yes Gomes got a touch, but Perez still had control of the ball and then Gomes trod on Perez’s foot and brings him down preventing him getting a pass or shot away.

I have sympathy. Watching your lot is almost as tough as watching mine and Arteta is definitely struggling but his players aren't helping him
 
Liverpool on top, but that’s a lucky goal. Harsh on Spurs as they were defending well and I imagine that was their game plan and look for a goal on the break so they will have to change now.
 
Another example of a defender turning his back on the ball rather than facing it and conceding a goal.

Considering the concussion chances of a ball in the face can you blame them?

This isn't Sunday league..these players can hit the ball

Watching it on the box without fans is rammel. However watching at the ground with VAR killing the game is even rammeler. Nope not affected my mental health at all.
