Look at the post with vid from twitter above yours, unless that clip been manipulated in some way you can clearly see it bounce off the back of his neck.

I have spent a few minutes trying to bounce projected Spittal off various surfaces. Mine keeps sticking and dribbling.
I suppose a professional footballer has a more proactive projectile . -:)

Just had the Mrs put on her rag shirt and after half dozen attempts at the right angel gob will bounce of a rag shirt

No they didn’t. They didn’t show it in the highlights or bring it up in the after match discussion.

I don't think they showed the attempted punch by Fernandes on Ward-Prowse either

Not read back but somebody has just told me Dean Henderson has been arrested for a domestic incident

Sorry if this was already mentioned, but am I the only person who thinks Sancho's goal should actually have been given as an o.g? Looked to be missing the far post until the defender intervened.

I said that in the thread during the game. Sancho doesn't connect properly and it's going straight at the keeper until it deflects off the defender. Not a single mention anywhere in the media.

Haha...never noticed !

......is your username a lyric from a song?

Yes.

Does 5th not get CL football if an English club wins the CL?

No. England get a fifth CL place if a team outside the top four win the CL or if an English team wins the Thursday League.
The rule was changed to benefit the dippers after they won the CL and finished outside the top four. UEFA intended the CL to be such a closed shop it was inconceivable a team outside the domestic top four (in England's case) could win it.

Realistically, we need about 5 points though.

Maybe I should have said "a maximum of 20 points".

 

[Mazzarelli's Swiss Cheese]

What I love about the current state of the rags is that the legacy of the GPC is not the two decades of success, but hopefully many more decades of the glazers bleeding them dry all because of an argument over some race horse spunk.

 

[southamptonblue]

Yes.

Thought so ;)

No mention on SLY's yellow banner ?

How unusual

That aged well.

I wonder if they get 5th and City are in the champions league final against foreign opposition. Will UEFA be biased towards us to drag them into next season CL?

If they finish fifth, and we win the Champions League, they will NOT be in next season's CL.

You are so naive mate.
The goal was awarded (incorrectly imo) to Sancho because the powers that be don't want the world to see that the rags have signed another lame duck.
Operation 'show Sancho in a positive light' is in full swing...

Gabriel, Michael, delight?

 

[LongsightM13]

WTF!

Oh look. A WhatsApp group member pining for their lost youth when the Redshirts were free to outspend and dominate. That was ‘cool’
No wonder the limp dick hypocrites despise City

 

[BringBackSwales]

These must have a dozen international goalies/defenders in their squad and they’ve conceded more fucking goals than bottom club burnley. Hardly setting the world alight up front either

 

[itsnevereasy]

Just googled the name of their second choice keeper…

 

[talkativesprout]

I think i am right in saying BBc sport online is the product of media City Salford and as such as shown very little in the way of being non partisan where local rivalry is concerned...but i fear they have turned.
