The appeal process has since changed, it's been fast tracked so that any appeal is heard and judged before the next fixture. I think Camel gob was the last player to get an extra game for frivolous appeal, stand to be corrected on that one.

I think you’re right, mate.

Sky sports news headlines.
"Man Utd move to within 5pts of man city"
Where have they moved from?

I don't mind that headline tbh at least it shows that they are still behind, I am sure that is not the intention of it though.

Presumably within 8 points, although factually incorrect. Within means inside, which they aren’t. They are exactly 5 points behind.

Some twunk on 5Live this morning saying "the game of the season so far" when referring to the Arse v Rag's game.

I am certain he wouldn't be saying that if the game had been played in the same way with the result reversed.

No agenda though..........

Btsport apparently said it, 606 said the same, MOTD likewise. Anybody think this has been wanted to be said for a while to counter act our performances but to be fair it was an exciting game . Game of the season though? Not even close.

From a neutral observer point of view it had a lot going for it.

End to end, defensive errors, good and bad finishing, goals, great goalkeeping and excitement for both teams at both ends.
Helped of course by Arsenal conceding early making them more attacking than they would normally be but still surely entertaining despite the 2 teams that competed.

It was a great game.

 

[urban genie]

If you had no vested interest in the game yesterday or bias opinion, then you would consider it one of the best games this year,
An early lead after shocking defensive work, a team then hammering the other to no avail due to a fine goalkeeping perfomance, a red card, and penalty controversy.

Personally I saw it as a typical arsenal perfomance, shoddy defending and rags being stuffy ****s, nowt special.

Consider the score line reversed.

At best, their headline would be "Arsenal beat 10-man United as Pogba see's red".

In the Grauniad, possibly.

I see what you did there!

That was a eight years ago. Have you considered the possibility that the rules might have changed in the intervening period?

Not for the rags.

How do hot and cold balls work, in practical terms? Is there just one hot and one cold ball, or an assortment?

GDM talking balls, some things never change.

And what happens as the hot ball comes into contact with the cold balls and the heat transfers, you'd think that might fuck things up a bit. And of course the hot ball will cool down as the draw progresses so do they have to get the hot ball out first, so to speak! ;-)

Cold ones shrink up! Whilst hot ones expand and hang low!

I'm all for UEFA being as bent as fuck, but there are limits placed on that by the laws of physics and simple logic!

I am afraid you would have to ask the former head of world football, he seems to know. I merely posted it because a) a lot of people dismiss the idea because 'no one has ever said it' and b) because he said it.
You can say he is discredited but bearing in mind it is proven he is bent perhaps his words carry more weight.

I've dealt with plenty of people like Blatter and I wouldn' t believe a single word they said.

The point is, when it has been mentioned on here by agenderists, they are shot down by people saying 'well why hasn't someone said something'. Now someone has said something it is still dismissed. We accept Blatter is bent and would do anything to get a few thousand quid in his back pocket and yet when he says that he is dismissed. Like you I have dealt with as people who are as bent as him and I have dealt with worse, I always found that when a conman, thief crook has something to say it is wise to listen.
