Everton used 3 subs so it had better be a concussion sub or no more allowed.
Not watching but you are allowed 5 subs but only three occasions when you can put subs on
Is it that they have already had three occasions to use a sub?

Also had an assist as well as scoring-really pleased for Ash. Hope Norwich come up this year with our Ash leading scorer.

Possibly Al-Dakhil is ok, but Vitinho and Roberts are not as good as Taylor at LB It really is strange when a manager just does not want a player at the club when we have little or no alternatives Just hope this stance does not come back to hurt us I like Charlie Taylor but in this league we have t...

A big factor might be who was refereeing, and whether they were doing so with the leniency of yesteryear, or the stricter game management and focus on player safety, of the game we see today. I can just imagine the guys from ‘66 reaction to the inevitable diving and feigning injury. Conversely, pla...

Really surprised you left Mac out. Of all the players we had he could turn on a sixpence and hit a long range pass better than any in that side and on surfaces today's players would struggle on

So difficult to answer really simply because players back then wouldn't have been anything like as fit as today's players. They generally played a different game too. I always think that if we got our 1959/60 team up to today's fitness levels, the two players who would fit seamlessly into today's g...

A Hull supporting colleague seems to think it's a loan with an option to buy. Personally, I think that might just be wishful thinking on his part. He also says they are in for Andros Townsend. This is in local Hull paper The Tigers will pay Burnley a loan fee and contribute towards Twine's wages, t...

It's fabulous news, i just hope his trademark "cut inside and curl it to the far post" is as deadly in the PL as it was last season. We shall see. Those four games on the bounce were just unbelievable especially when he evaded three defenders at Bristol when they knew what he could do-and he did!!!!

Two things true at once:
1. If you smoke 20 Marlboro a day then vaping is a much better option.
2. Its not good that kids are getting on nicotine through them.

I'm sure they do far less harm than alcohol but funnily enough its very rare you hear people call for that to be banned. They don't bother me in the slightest to be honest, I'd much rather have someone in the room smoking one of those instead of a cigarette Alcohol is slightly different unfortunate...

Definitely when we were at home
