Balanced by that miss at Norwich that may have gained us a point and possible safety!

There was that penalty miss against West ham too.

Am I right in saying he was the last player to miss a penalty for us?

fidelcastro

Do we know if we got a fee for him?

Go on then fidel, don’t be cryptic.

My political points are always deleted, unlike those of others, so I'd just advise you to look at our foreign policy and decide if you believe them to be left leaning.

There's no point in me saying anything else.

fidelcastro

No idea why people want to politicise a topic like this instead of just straightforwardly condemning racism but couldn’t let this claim stand. How is our country following American right wing values when we have a left wing government in power who seem to be doing everything in their power to screw...

I’ve read Merson’s autobiography. On away trips in a hotel, his idea of fun was to have a poo in the bed of one of his teammates. Somehow, I don’t think he and I would have got on. Did he blame the alcoholism, the white powder or his gambling problems for that? If he did it just because he thought ...

Leaving aside how shite VAR is, I can’t see a problem with the semi-automated CGI of Foster. The line is taken from Foster’s upper arm - the ridiculously ambiguous ‘t-shirt line’, and shows that part of his body is ahead of the Man U defender’s ’t-shirt line’. By the law of the game it’s offside. I...

If, buts and maybes
Who says anyone else scores 4?.....certainly not bottom 10 teams, which is what matters

I like your positivity, but United may still be a bottom 10 team.

Time will tell, I suppose.

yep, I was mostly talking about no VAR !

That goes without saying, mate!

fidelcastro

listen to the Marco Silva interview I posted on the VAR thread. Honestly mate and it pains me to say it as I want us to be the best we can be - I much prefer the league below. The Championship is a great league if you're doing well in it, but if you're not, it's bloody awful! I remember the Cotteri...

If we play like that every game we stay up.....

If we play like we did first half, then a better team will be 4-0 up.

Parker spot on about VAR and the refs and what the game is becoming

The decisions today may even have all been technically correct, but VAR is still turning me off the game as a whole.

I can't be the only one.

fidelcastro

I'm not sure what Anthony was thinking there, but it's still a tough one to take.

fidelcastro

Stupid from Anthony, but come on, it's outside the box FFS!

Rubbish decision. There was no picture showing the offside. We are being 'Premier league' out.

Wrong again. It was offside.

It was tight, but it was still offside.

Was this the Mount many were saying we should sign

Yes, and some even said he wasn't good enough for us!

fidelcastro

Should be more than just 1-0. The goal is a shocker in terms of the marking. The guy literally doesn't even have to move.

fidelcastro

Very inconsistent stream. United have probably had even more chances than I've actually seen.

It really should be more than 1-0.

You obviously was watching a different player and everyone was “garbage” in that PL season.

You agree with me then.

fidelcastro

Really good player for us and was/is a massive miss. The one player VK got right, had attitude, ability and loyalty. Questioning a South American player wanting to make the move he did is bonkers. It isn’t his fault they’re skint. I must've been watching a different player. At PL level I thought he...

fidelcastro

It must be a very late call up because he certainly wasn't in the original squad.

fidelcastro

Strange how my comments linking what was said to the far right were deleted, but others get away with posting whatever they want.

To use a popular phrase of today... Two tier justice!

fidelcastro

This must be the new "challenge" he was taking about.

It isn't the word I'd use.

Rishton wouldn't survive without income from the social side - bar, club room hire, etc

How did they afford to pay Viv Richards all those years ago?

Spot on looked good last night.Edwards was disappointing maybe Banel could replace him as sub .Against Liverpool particularly that Donkey Konate we have several players capable of unlocking Liverpools defence

Konate a donkey?

Okay then!

If they were sensible, they'd do a bit of research, and find that most premier league teams do the same, and they'd realise its the norm for clubs at this level
They'd probably wonder why people who've stayed on earth all that time, hadn't realised the same.

Still on the payroll, then?

fidelcastro

Is he not refusing to play now that we're back in the Prem?

fidelcastro

I hope the poster named boyanno, who I promised to apologise to, if like he claimed, Humphreys wouldn't be seen until October, will now apologise to me.

I'll wait.

Far corner of CFS away end was very sparse.

Either Sunderland didn't take their full allocation or something went drastically wrong!

I can't say I noticed any real difference when leaving the ground.

As someone has already said, the away coaches not being parked on Harry Potts Way makes up for the increased footfall.

What is your love in with this bloke? He’s had one or two decent games for us. He’s got like four goal contributions in his career. He needs to go somewhere to play games as he 100% won’t play for us this season. I could totally understand it if he had the quality of Danny ings or Mcneil. But he’s ...

It's all about opinions and imo it's a big mistake to loan out one of our remaining creative forces.

He has the grand total of ONE assist since he signed for us. If that's him being creative, then I shudder to think how you define disappointing.

Not if they use their season cards.

Admittedly more of an issue if you go in the CFS.
