Schalke post match thread

[gordondaviesmoustache]

The fans were great and Cardiff was a good night out, found a great curry house on Charlotte street in the brewery quarter

Cardiff is a brilliant night out. Was talking to a copper about it a couple of years ago, who said on a Saturday it’s full of folk from the valleys coming down to the big city to get pissed and scrap each other with their fists. Proper old skool violence.

Anyway, mustn't derail the tread! Hopefully see you on Sunday.

If it's anything Dermot Gallagher thought both penalty decisions were wrong and referenced them in the way VAR will be implemented in the Premier League next year.

For the 1st: Says referees will look at how close he was (8 yards), how fast the shot was hit and whether the player made an attempt to move his hand/arm out of way.

For the 2nd: Says referees will look at whether the offside in the build up directly affected the play.

Look forward to it.

We Fight To The End
Never more appropriate
Well done blues
Safe trip home
Onwards and upwards

You're wrong on both penalties, as the laws of the game are today.....

Like I said I’m not expanding because I can’t be arsed with the arguments over this whole thread.

Main thing is we won.

 

[Proy]

I don't really have a problem with your view, but I would like to add that had the boot been on the other foot, we wouldn't have got either one.

Agreed

Similar to cricket where they first check for no ball before checking actual dismissal

He forgot "and which team he plays for."

Well done to the lads, but this game yet again confirmed that UEFA will do absolutely anything they can to make sure we don't win this competition. Corrupt to the core.

How can you possibly not utterly love pretty much every minute of following this club right now? If you can’t enjoy this, then give up - seriously.

This could turn out to be a truly incredible season. We’ve been fortunate with cup draws so far, but there will be some tough cup ties ahead. It could get insanely intense in the Spring.

Several of the knicker wetters are going to spontaneously combust during late April and early May (and hopefully beyond!) when we reach the denouement of the season.


* makes mental note to dust off ‘fanny wipes’ meme.

I’m not allowed to post on match threads ever since the WC, but, I too was shouting WTF are you ****s moaning about. Two penalties that you could do fuck all about and you win 3.2 away in Germany!!! One if the best free kicks you will ever see. Pep went for the win with his subs and change of formation, balls of steel. And yet, the amount of fanny batter on that forum was weird as fuck. You ****s are fucking spoiled and you should enjoy that. ****s. :)

What a week to give up the glue.

 

[CelesteItis]

Can’t argue for or against that as it didn’t happen and we would both be arguing pointless hypotheticals.

If the ref/VAR really wanted to fuck us, they give the foul against Sterling and cancel out the third.

Never a foul. Raz stood his ground same as Kun in the league cup final.
They tried to fucked us up but failed big time thanks to Sané Ederson Sterling. End of.
Wum or keep your head buried in the sand.

Historically, our match day threads in particular have been infested with rags pretending to be blues. There’s still a bit of that, I’m sure. You need to weight that a little into the balance.

Anybody who thinks UEFA ain’t bent just fuck off

Fair enough. Was just letting you know

Interesting. Pen 1 seems the sensible outlook. Never deliberate as plenty have said. Too close, hit at pace, tried everything to get out of the way etc etc.

Pen 2 is a big change in the way the current law is applied. And how it should be done for me. Maybe sense will prevail for once. The forward has to be interfering with play/gaining an unfair advantage in tonight’s example, otherwise dinho wouldn’t have pulled him down.

 

[SebastianBlue]

The most dramatic cut of the free kick I have come across (“The kid, the kid!”)...

[TheThirdDeano]

Hahahah Get fucked UEFA.

The strength of character in our squad is beyond question (Well, except what the fuck happened at Newcastle)

Very, very good result all things considered.

I know it was never a foul, but if they were trying to fuck us, they could have given it.

If you really believe it’s wumming to suggest there maybe isn’t a conspiracy against us then fair enough but ‘wow’.

Don't mention ze VAR in Deutschland

Franco Prussian, Hundred year or Malvinas no?
