Time for our mighty heroes to roar to victory. Madge has dusted herself down, after calamitous Thursday and ready to lead the charge.
Let's get behind the lads and make sure we win.

Insane to disallow the Mane ‘goal’. Wonder what would happen if we totally did away with offside ? Would certainly open up game !!!

You'd get players standing in the area all game and both teams wouldn't bother passing, they'd just keep kicking it from penalty area to penalty area.

It would be a different game but I’d love to see it tried, seriously. I know they’ve had test games and rejected the idea but if the top pros got their teeth into it they’d come up with some cracking ploys going forward. There would be so much space in midfield it would bring different skills.

It was a totally different game when the offside rule was introduced. Modern game needs modern rules. Offside in Ice hockey is also a veryinteresting option although it would still cause disputes with Var.

If Gibson and others can't get in the team after a deficit of eleven goals in the last three matches its time for them to move on. Too predictable Mr Dyche.
