Villa v Man U... hoping for more misery for the Reds,
however I think they might bounce back here.
Chelsea v Forest
Brighton v Spurs

Bristol City v Cardiff

Watching the Villa v United game, what happened to the rule that a player will be booked if they do an imaginary card to the ref? Garnacho, Rashford and Hjolund have all done it this half and ref did nothing.

Chris Wood scores again for Forest

Ref bottles a second yellow for Rashford.

He does
A clear second yellow and immediately he is substituted

Brooks Dreadful referee

The ref is Robert Jones, although Brooks is a dreadful referee.

Watched 3 live matches on TV this weekend, yet to see a goal.

Not a bad player is he that Chris Wood chap, I wish we had him.

Brighton 0 Spurs1

Just watched the Brighton guy fall to the floor as if Madison had elbowed him if that was rugby it would be reviewed and he’d get a retrospective ban,cheating little ****.

McNally scores today.

The cheating and feigning injury is getting seriously bad. PNE yesterday were appalling. Players have to sort this out, it’s getting embarrassing.

2-0 Spurs.

Poor goalkeeping from Verbruggen to say the least

I think it’s the officials who have to sort it out. Yesterday after 2 mins the keeper wastes time. If Ward had a brain he’d be think, local derby I’ll deal with this. He should have gone to the Keeper and pulled their captains across. Right Keeper I know what you’re doing, no more or the next one you’re in the book. Captain warn your players if I believe you’re feigning injury or time wasting you’ll be booked. I know there’s the argument about is he injured or not but it lets the players know he’s not going to fall for it every time. To be honest I often think Foster is a little guilty of one of those two situations mentioned.

Can’t believe that Sky didn’t highlight it at halftime there’s only one word for it and it’s Cheating.

He’s injured.

Such a weird side, Spurs.
One minute they look world beaters. Then they just collapse.

Cheers for that. Not a bad reason I suppose.

I agree its awful to watch. PNE were terrible, its such as shame that we are toothless and couldn't punish them. But the referee was awful and should have warned them. I assume a player can be booked for feigning injury?

Best game of the weekend.

If Ange was wearing a bigger coat he could hide himself inside it for the final 20 minutes.

Apart from Plymouth's injury time of course.

Refreshing lack of game management from Brighton

Not my favourite club, but credit where due.
Great comeback by Brighton.
Spurs looked at least a league above them at halftime.

Most amazing stat was Brighton U21 10 Crystal Palace Under 21 0.

Brighton obviously have some promising young attackers on their books.

Ken sometimes did gigs at Buxton.
Knew someone who worked backstage & she hated his shows. Only because he used to overrun by a long way & she couldn't get home.

Bayern concede a last minute equaliser at Frankfurt. First sign of a bit of pressure for Vinny?

A bit but Frankfurt are having a good season (above Leverkusen and Dortmund) so not a bad result in isolation. Still top, just.

I saw Bristol - Cardiff. Cardiff look no different to when we played them - often neat and tidy but toothless. They actually scored this time but the lack of that killer second, which they would have merited, cost them.

McNally was his usual steady self, nothing special, just doing his job playing on the left. Twine was not that effective. When I have seen Bristol City he's not impressed at all. Even his free kicks are poor.

Also two Tanners on the pitch. That makes a Bob.
