Today's footie

Post by tiger76 » Sun Dec 29, 2019 2:42 pm

Big win for Stevie G at Parkhead finished 2-1 to the Gers,Morelos saw red yet again though,the guy really is a clown.

Arfield came on as a sub late on,he'll be dreaming of a league title now,and let's be honest that's why he went north.

The gooners 1 up against Frank's Chelsea,Aubameyang early doors,i can see a red in this game as well,it's pretty feisty.

Another big clash of heads at Arsenal game. Seems to happen a lot more often these days. Time for players to wear crash helmets 😊

I'm just watching the Arsenal game and players with the same coloured shirt are passing the ball to each other on a fairly regular basis.

What's that all about ? :)

Chelsea are so hard to predict since the 7th December they've lost at Everton,next lost to Bournemouth at home,then went to Spurs and won,Boxing Day they lost at home to Southampton,and today they've gone to the Emirates and won, :?

Accy 2 up at home to Burton,heading for another 3 points,they're looking good for survival at that level again,what a job John Coleman is doing on a tiny budget.

Yeah! just seen that a bleeding OG to boot,if they do come up they'll have to drastically improve their defending,or they'll be next season's Norwich.

Top 6 taking shape now.

Always happens by xmas.

Arsenal have been replaced by Leicester though. Probably for a long time.

They've just said that if the ref had blown for the handball BEFORE the ball crossed the goal line, then
the goal would not have been allowed !!!!!!

WTF ?

Strange, after Arsenal getting a new manager in I thought Chelsea would be playing for a 0-0 draw today, isn't that the usual plan to deal with a "new manager bounce"?

Lads listen, this might not go down too well with my fellow dons fans (really hope there are none looking in) but I am GLAD they won today. We've had a little bit of a hoo ha re Cosgrove red card last week. I find Celtic to be as an equally ODIOUS institution as Sevco FC.. today the medicine was dish best served cold.

Sheff Utd still using overlapping centre backs away at CIty, VAR is about to rule out a goal for them because an armpit is offside

Chris Kavanagh tackles a Sheff Utd player and CIty score - simply has to be over turned as the ball hit the ref but it doesn't because it's run by *****. I'm done with football, time for everyone to boycott the shambles that it the PL

It doesn't matter if it hit the ref accidentally or if he kicked it in on purpose laws say it's a goal.

That's :x they can disallow goals for an armpit being offside,yet they allow City's goal despite it being questionable for a couple of reasons. :roll:

Without the benefit of the VAR replay, it's hard to work out whether the ball flicked off the referee and to a City player or if the ref unintentionally blocked a Blades player.

If it's the former the goal has to be chalked off and a restart i think,if it's the latter i'm not sure off the laws,but either way Sheff Utd can consider themselves unlucky,especially given their disallowed goal in the 1st half.

It’s a big club decision just like at Liverpool earlier. If I were sheff u I would keep passing at the ref as hard as poss. Think that would make the point

Just checked on this and the law has been changed, it should now be a dropped ball.

So they clearly don't even know the laws of the game,what hope have we got if that's the case.
