Today's football

Post by ecc » Sat Sep 20, 2025 12:24 pm

Wish there were a way for both Liverpool and Everton to lose.

I hope I'm wrong but I can't see Everton struggling this season otherwise I would have to go for a home win.

At first look I was certain he was off but Chalobah’s foot plays him on.

Pedro did what Pedro does best. Ref fell for it.

Funny though.

Come on, Chelsea! A couple of converted late pens will keep 'em below us.

I’d be wanting a free kick for that to be fair.

Another one. No way you cancel that goal. Clueless officials again. Whether we have VAR or not the officials still need to understand the game and what is accidental and what isn’t. Unfortunately, again we have a ref, VAR and aVAR, none of them understanding the game.

it's a contact sport, he doesn't even swing the arm. It's a another dreadful 'ruin the game' type decision

It’s an accident and obviously no intention or maliciousness about the challenge but the contact into Collins’ face impedes him from making an attempt to get to the ball.

if Collins had bothered jumping it wouldn't have happened. It's a nonsense decision.

Head injury so game should have been stopped immediately. That is the modern game and the directives given, unlike when I played it and officiated. The game really is going to the dogs because player safety is being taken to a new height. Don't want to risk injury, don't play the game. Simple really.

Brentford along with Wolves look poor after losing their best players.

It's going to be bloody tight down there this year but I think we've got a real chance of beating the drop.
