I had a look on there forum. Some absolutely belmtard said that Xhaka played like a paraplegic. Those were his words. Disgusting.

Calling someone a belmtard is fine though

The guy reporting is followed by Romano, Ornstein, McGrath, Kay, Plettenberg etc so he's clearly legit. That would be peak Marinakis.

But Marinakis has no control at Forest, it can't be anything to do with him.

Won't play for us again. Parker couldn't make use of him in the Championship and has essentially told him he doesn't want him in the Premier League. All this is is trying to boost the fee we'll get for him since we've managed to turn him from a £20m player to one we wouldn't get half that for in th...

A 20yr old on the verge of a full Italian cap should be developed by us.I thought this was supposed to be SPs area of expertise .

What if sending him out on loan is part of his development?

Tall Paul

Save that it makes isak look like a petulant child kicking his feet because he can't get sweets without saying please. He was happy enough taking money from a pretty good contract when he was injured. Liverpool have played the usual real madrid card of having the press in their back pocket. The guy...

You seem to have mis-understood??

We have beaten Everton more times than we have beaten any other Premier League teams!

I stand to be corrected but I think we have beaten Everton more times than any other Premier League team.

I doubt that. Liverpool, for example, have beaten them loads of times.

Deliberate handball otherwise it was not a pen

Handball isn't a yellow card offence.

How is that rubbish? Ekdal, Sonne, Laurent and Foster were backup last season in the Championship, now they’re starting.

A ridiculously woeful lineup.

They're still backup though aren't they? But the players they're backup to aren't fit/ready yet.

And if it automatically cut out and stopped drawing it when you turn 60, you’d have a point. It stopped 10 months before I turn 60, and I do still need the prescription. I don’t have to reset all my other DD’s every year, so I wrongly assumed I had nothing to do with it so I relaxed, thinking my pr...

Tall Paul

Seems pretty logical to me.

The PPC is for a 12 month period so, as prescriptions are free once you turn 60, it isn't automatically renewed to avoid you paying for something you don't need. I would imagine you'll have received an email to let you know it wasn't being renewed.

There was a lad whose surname was Pilkington, who came on as sub in one game under Cotterill (I think!). As soon as play re-started after the sub, the ref blew for full time.

I don't think he made another appearance.

Joel, I think?

Max Homa's year has been such a nightmare that he hasn't qualified for the Open and is playing in California this week.

I'm on MacIntyre and Hatton, shamelessly cribbed from Ben Coley's (who has an excellent record) Sporting Life tips.

Sorry to all the medical & sports scientists on this thread but I’ve seen Bayer twice, outside the ground end of season & at Manchester airport, walking really well with no signs of a limp or injury, looked in great nick & taller than I thought.

What about Beyer though?

Something else I learnt last week. If dropping off at T3 follow the signs for T1.

And yes, the new drop off payment method is an absolute money making scam. Why else would they change it?

Maybe to help the flow of traffic if cars no longer need to stop and wait for barriers to open?

It doesn't need data. Anyone watching a game can easily see when a team creates and misses a load of good chances. No need to quantify it more than that.

What if they haven't watched the game?

Tall Paul

Or they might have said, "we got beat 5-0, but our xG shows that we probably shouldn't expect that kind of result every week" and they'd have been right.

Tall Paul

But no professional person at a club anywhere in the world uses xG as a single stat which is what most fans who defend do. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/live/c1k4vy0xwlgt#MatchStats I wonder if Palace said after the above match ahhh but our xG No but they might have said "if only we hadn't m...
