It'll be a nightmare getting there and hundreds will miss out, but we are going to win just to balance it all out

I get Cluster Migraines, come once a year for about a month. Get them every night around 12ish...bizarre really. The most painful thing I've ever experienced. Likewise. They hit and last for days. I also find getting painkillers into you when my sight goes, and before the headache itself strikes, h...

Still 7th is the FRUSTRATING thing not the good thing. Had we turned just 3 draws into wins (utd away, huddersfield and today) and just 3 defeats into draws (swansea, liverpool and palace) all of which were more than achievable we would be above arsenal in 6th. Had we won all our matches we'd be top

I am sure that game was on the same night as the Champions League Final when AC Milan gave one of the best performances ever thrashing Barca 4-0. I remember having the TV on watching AC Milan and Radio Lancs on listening to the Clarets. Great night and Johnny Francis was unplayable looking at those...

Nobody. Not one of us knows what he would have done. We don't even know what he might have done as we are not him.

Someone pointing out on the comments under that BBC article that Palace went down in 92/93 with 49 points, but there were 4 extra matches for everyone that season

i know, sorry, just having a dig at the official twitter account who have inexplicably taken to reporting scores of away games the wrong way round. they were reporting it as 0-3 during the game then changed it to 3-0 at the end. if you'd started following the game after the goal was scored at palac...

True, and people that don't like it, won't accept it when they do. I don't understand why a lot of things are popular.

Because the media...right enough

It is claimed World Series was named for the New York World newspaper. However, when it was first contested, the AL and NL were the only two baseball leagues in the world, so it made sense, kind of, then.

Can anyone tell me what is remotely interesting about it? Why are the bbc covering this nonsense. Waste of the licence fee.

People like what they like. Life would be utterly tedious if everyone liked all the same things

RocketLawnChair wrote:On Saturday night IMO edision the excitement of a 5 goal thriller packed with potential controversy mistakes and incidents along with a big 6 club exiting a cup competition was killed stone dead as a spectacle because of the use of VAR.

Oh, I agree. It definitely killed the excitement

edison

I suppose players will argue anything for the sake of it. it is second nature to them. But I can also see people arguing about whether or not the right decision was made even after watching VAR - I mean, look how many times people argue different sides when looking at the same replays generally.

edison

It's certainly going to take some time to settle down but there has to be a better system to let people in the grounds know what's going on and it has to be speeded up somewhat. Pawson was taken far too long at Anfield. Having said that, VAR will be good for Pawson because he doesn't get much right...

The decisions were all right but it did take an eternity to reach them, it seemed.
Not sure why players were then arguing with the ref, knowing he has been watching a replay that they have not seen.

Walking into a top international post as a first managerial job is not unheard of - as we know too well over here. I'm still trying to get over the whole Steve Staunton saga

Cool pics on that thread. is it actually open, or did he just access it himself?

Blake scored against us in the away match that same season - also the match when Gray got injured and our season went down the toilet

Twice on his debut - not a lot of goals after that
