Watching motd this morning. Nunes of Wolves must surely hold 'the most stupid sending off of the season so far ' award. Both bookings were gormless.

@Bazzatron we may need to set up a therapy group. 'Fans of teams who play nice football but can't score'. Week after week, after week, after week 😪. 39 shots in 2 games and no goals. You would think that would actually be quite hard to achieve. Better than no shots though, you have to think it will come at some stage.

Also, have they changed the hand ball rule, after no penalty was given when Romero blocked Garnacho's shot with his hand up and out? Never know where we stand with that
It’s the rules they have tried to make more consistent that are inconsistent because individual refs give different cards/ pens.
It’s a mess.
agree by the way that’s a pen.
 
@Slime I saw your post on the irritations thread, who do you think you have bought recently that is wrong and where do you need to strengthen? Interested to hear from a fans perspective.

As an Everton fan our priority is a striker and then ideally a midfielder with a bit more subtle creativity. The frustration at the lack of the former, for about 4 transfer windows now, is immense.

It's not so much about the incomings, it's the outgoings that are a large part of the problem.
Maguire, Utd should have done all they could to have facilitated the move.
McTominay, Utd turned down a bid of £30M for a player worth no more than that.
We also still have Bailly, Williams, Henderson, Van de Beek.
Our only striker was bought with an injury and our backup striker, Martial, is an injury prone winger ........................ who we should probably sell anyway!
Oh, and the way Utd got rid of De Gea was disgusting.
 
This may sound a smidge ironic given my previous history for occasional petty bickering, folks. But can we draw a line under the petty bickering please?
 
Has wa Willie yet explained exactly what is preventing his attendance in support of our national women's team?
As it stands he appears to be clearly so far out of touch with the feelings of the nation that it's probably best he steps down from his role in the FA. As football fans don't forget such things I can just imagine the stick he'll get when he next turns up at a ground......
Where's Willie
where's Willie
Is he here
Is he here
There he is (thousands pointing)
There he is
What a plonker
What a plonker (or even worse)
