Has pstotto got the job?

Swizzlestick

Like Darth says, it’s all a panto act now. And he has the talent and the trophies to back it up. Obviously looks after himself and still puts the hours in to play like this at the highest level at such an age. Fantastic player.

Swizzlestick

Not sure on the question but House of Games is my favourite programme on TV. Really good format.

Swizzlestick

Newcastle have been shocking. Look totally devoid of confidence.

Swizzlestick

Wasn’t Brownhill putting in man of the match performances in December? Arsenal away springs to mind.

Swizzlestick

Hopefully they don’t mix up Mike and Stuart’s names....

Swizzlestick

Each to their own. Some excellent commentators of the past always said, if there's nothing to say, keep quiet. The best ones still do that, it's not radio, where they have to keep talking, TV, you can see what's happening. After listening to Martin Tyler again drone on and on with dull statistics w...

Thought Champion and McCoist were excellent - knowledgeable and entertaining. God forbid they inject a bit of small talk into a game that was generally pretty drab.

Swizzlestick

Anyone got a cardboard box??

Yan’s been brilliant tonight to be fair. Uncharacteristic errors from John though.

Swizzlestick

Need to look at the teams they won against as well. Wolves are in a dreadful run and I’ve always said their ‘unique’ infrastructure will be their undoing. And I’m not ‘having’ Leeds either - they can’t defend to save their lives and I fully believe they’ll be dragged into it.

Swizzlestick

Thought Higgins v Gilbert was very low quality. A decent safety exchange early in the evening aside, neither player was on it. The mortgage on Higgins tomorrow though.

Ben Bracken Islay whisky. From Lidl!

A very good dram, better than some £60 bottles I’ve had in the last.

They also do Highland and Speyside variants if you’re not a fan of the Islay smokiness.

And yes, Amazon Prime

Union Berlin want Vydra on loan, we want a permanent transfer.

Swizzlestick

Fallen off the wagon recently, but it’s astonishing how much your appetite reduces on keto. It’s not for everyone, but I lost weight on it and felt a lot better generally.

Swizzlestick

Thought he was a borderline liability at the Turf a few years back, constantly trying the spectacular, dwelling on the ball etc but was imperious last night. Probably the type of performance United thought they’d have seen more of considering outlay.

Swizzlestick

Dealt with a difficult game to officiate very well. One of the better refs in the PL.

Swizzlestick

Would be a good signing, for me. The right age and, while I've not seen lots of his games, I've seen enough to suggest he has the drive and dynamism we need on that flank. Certainly be happy if we got this one over the line.

Swizzlestick

I don't want to be Mr Negative here but they surely have no chance of procuring three separate medics with the right qualifications and taking them off the front line for a minimum of two weeks, in the middle of a global pandemic. The situation is awful but I guess this is one of the pitfalls of mov...

Swizzlestick

One of the best ‘pure’, instinctive finishers I’ve seen play for us. Should’ve played at higher levels than he has - had all the makings of a top PL striker.

Swizzlestick

Yeah, it's £1.95 for delivery. Just left it open for an hour and was in.

Lutz Pfannenstiel- only player to have played in six continents. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lutz_Pfannenstiel

Favourite bit of his CV - getting a loan spell at Bradford Park Avenue while playing for Dunedin in....New Zealand!

Why?

Testing instead of ‘vaccinating’?

Swizzlestick

Fair play to Sean for thinking outside the box but they’ll still need to be tested anyway.

Also, it looked like he hadn’t slept for about two days.

Swizzlestick

Not for me. Five years ago maybe. Last time I saw him play he looked both unfit and a little overweight for a pro footballer. He may well have trimmed up since but considering lack of action, you’d imagine he’s some way off. We desperately need to get the age profile of the squad down and while Snod...

£25,000 fine and a warning.

Swizzlestick

I have an affinity for Celtic due to family connections, but this is pretty much unforgivable. What on earth were they thinking?

Swizzlestick

When our daughter survived pneumonia and sepsis two years ago. The night we brought her back from the hospital and she was sleeping peacefully, made a drink and just burst into tears. Not a crier at all and it took me by surprise but must have been pent up emotion.

Swizzlestick

I’m probably drinking heavier now than I ever have. By heavier, I don’t really mean quantity, as I never really ‘binge drink’ as I would have done on a night out, but I find I’m having a couple of strong spirits like whiskies or gins most nights. First lockdown in particular was incredibly stressful...

Can you tell him that we want the proper Burnley badge back on shirts! Instead of the hideous one we got now.

I, and I know many others, prefer the current badge.

Swizzlestick

Match called off. A mess.

Swizzlestick

Blimey.

Was a director at Mann & Hummel / Vokes Air I think

That’s great to hear, I absolutely love his work.

If anyone knows Dave well, please pass on my thoughts on a ‘Tales from the Board Room’ tome with the associated musings of those that have just left. It would be superb!

I think that is Dave T!

Has anyone thought that they may be victim to predictive texting, God knows I am regularly.
It doesn't stop the blame for the proof reader, but it probably isn't deliberate.

The badge as well though??

Unless it’s a photoshop job.

Poor game little ambition from Liverpool non from Newcastle
Wilson is pxxx poor too greedy and little end product.

He’s been one of their better players both tonight and this season.

Confirmed called off by the Premier League

Swizzlestick

Won’t go down well on here but I don’t mind this Leeds side. Apart from Phillips they haven’t got a PL standard player in the side, they aren’t kicking the opposition up in the air and they are trying to attack. Total opposite to the Revie animals. The love in for them and Bielsa is totally OTT but...

Pope - 7 some decent stops Lowton - 6 Tarkowski - 8 Mee - 9* excellent Pieters - 6 very limited Brady - 7 assisted from the corner and has ability but frustrating at times Westwood - 6 Brownhill - 7 Benson - 5 not his fault but not ready for the first XI Wood - 6 decent set up in opening moment but ...

Something like 0.5% of tests carried out in Premier league have been positive.... Not that messy. Six hamstrings wouldn't get a game called off...

Well it is messy because City got their game postponed last night because of it. Also, hamstrings aren’t highly contagious as far as I’m aware.

Swizzlestick

All starting to get a bit messy now.

He’s got previous for being something of a gobshite, to quote my Irish relatives, but can’t see where this has been gleaned from. He did cause a bit of a fuss re incidents being deliberately missed but this was a few years ago https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/syndication.bleacherreport.com/amp/2661535...

I would imagine that if the game had gone ahead, and man city won the game and in so doing infected a dozen everton staff members and players, then Everton would be demanding to know why the game was allowed to go ahead. Well yes, but they’re perfectly at rights to request more details about the po...

Maybe it’s time to reiterate to players, managers & staff that the rest of the world, no matter how often they are tested, aren’t going around hugging each other at their place of work. For all the talk of football losing fans over VAR, refereeing decisions and the general softening of the game, no...

Swizzlestick

He’s a busted flush who’s thrown his toys out of the pram at too many clubs. Statement suggests not just results that are the problem. Terrible appointment.

Is it new or a repeat of the one that was on earlier in the year?

Aye, just a repeat.

Swizzlestick

Thought he was slow and dwelled too much on the ball throughout as well as being outmuscled. Again, criticism is allowed.

As for FactualFrank liking posts about getting behind the players after freely admitting he bet a sizeable wedge on us getting beat today, well, no comment

Swizzlestick

They’re not children. Being honest about a player’s performance is not the same as ‘not getting behind them’
