Re: Happy Clappers.

I don’t know why we aren’t ruthlessly taking glaring chances, seem to be on the end of dodgy VAR and we still can’t seem to get our best side on the pitch due to injuries. It all just isn’t going our way, it sounds like excuses and maybe it is. I do think a proper right back, a starting nailed on r...

Re: Amdouni

Amdouni has a real knack of finding space. Someone mentioned the space he created for himself when Foster should have played him in and he was clever with his movement for the goal.

He’s mega frustrating though. Too often gives the ball away and spends too much of games on the periphery.

No, it wasn’t.
It was, in my opinion.

As Trafford is about to spring, the striker clearly impedes him by leaning his backside into him.

Looks pretty obvious to me and the vast majority of both this thread and the media.

Appreciate there are different opinions though.

Re: Burnley v Luton

Is bumba’s argument here that if the striker wasn’t there, Trafford wouldn’t get to it?

The problem with that argument is the striker was there, and he fouled him. So it’s irrelevant whether he’d get to it or not.

It’s a clear foul.

Re: Today’s Football

It’s very definitely a dive.

He takes an additional step after minimal contact and isn’t falling. Realises he isn’t able to put the ball in the net quite as simply as he wants to and throws himself.

It’s cheating, plain and simple.

Not sure how any of the post you’ve quoted is ‘absolute rubbish’

Everything he has said is true. £100m is pittance in this league.

Sure, Luton are currently doing better than us. But the season hasn’t finished yet and our development seems quite obvious in most areas to me.
