They said a better image was available, but the cynic in me suggests they had hours to knock that up for MotD.

The on the spot stuff is shit.

 

aye, the officials provided that initial one to BT Sport just before half time

 

they had Graham Poll on hand to tell us how shit it was and that as much as he likes VAR, this was embarrassing

 

by the end of HT, the officials provided another image with straight lines and said "no, we didn't use that first one we showed you, we used this one, where you can clearly see his knee is just offside"

 

no one in the studio was convinced

In the 1948 (London) Olympic women's 200m Australia's Shirley Strickland was given fourth place, but examination of the photofinish 27 years later showed conclusively that she finished third.

She went on to gain bronzes in the 100m and 80mH, as well as silver in the 4x100m.

Nephew's a ball boy today at Rochdale

 

Got scouted by Man U into their academy and released a year later. Dale picked him up and he loves it there. Chuffed to bits for him today, he's giddy as fuck!!!

The Rochdale midfielder ...Camps..... is exactly the kind of player that we're screaming out for, comfortable taking the ball off the defenders & then looking for a forward pass.

 

Trouble is, Rochdale have probably got less need to sell players than us.

Great that for Rochdale, pleased for them.

 

Aye. Very happy for them

 

Can't get the video to put on here but Harry Kane patted my nephew's head on the way off the pitch. After the match apparently Spuds players and staff were very generous in their time towards all the Rochdale kids who were ballboys and the like. Used to hate Spuds, after Muamba I really liked them, now I'm really seeing what a "nice" club they are. Fair play to them. They did a lot today to help a lower league club

They’re is fuck all purpose in having a decent midfielder if the manager is telling the team to boot it over their head time after time after time after time after time!

Who is this decent midfielder who the manager is telling the players to boot the ball over his head ?

 

Our best midfield is Vela, Henry & Pratley, none of whom are comfortable or creative on the ball, & at no time has Parky had, or had the money to buy, a midfield player who is comfortable or creative on the ball.
