You'd expect there to be a lot of wet t-shirts around the place, but I haven't seen one yet...?

You want the page three thread in off topic.

Apparently hail stones have come down, as well.

Now fully (greater) Manchester.

Fans are less important, perhaps?

Unless you’re a dipper they mean more

Presumed it wouldn’t be that simple. Fair enough.

I would assume so. Lightning is more vertical than horizontal. Also it’s a lot easier to move 22 players than 70k fans, and where would you be moving the fans to?

Shades of England vs Honduras, when rain stopped play and the ITV crew were desperately filling for time.

 

[Jam Tomorrow]

They’ve basically stopped for the weather we had for our treble parade, at least our lads had nothing metallic to get hold of….

Give Oliver a foil hat

More seriously I am not sure what equipment Eriksen has regarding his heart condition and whether lightning could interfere with that. Oliver on the other hand is expendable

I really don't think that's close to similar. Mainly, Cucurella was pulling at Rodri, not blocking his run like a screen. Secondly, they are both facing the ball. Plus neither Rodri or Cucurella were directly involved in the goal. You can make an argument Rodri might have got there to block but that's very subjective.

In this case it's clear cut, he's directly marking the striker and the German is not looking at the ball at all. I really think this is not at all contentious.

Ok I remembered it differently.
