Fucking Keown us an unbelievable ****

I agree but I actually thought last night was one of his better ones.

That is quite literally one of the most insane things I have ever read, on here or anywhere else

My thoughts entirely :)

Has Peter Walton ever disagreed with a referee decision on punditry?

Yes when we scored a perfectly good goal against Aston Villa. But at the end of the match he actually admitted to looking up the rules! and changed his mind. While adding that he didn't think it was in the spirit of the game. The bloke was a piss poor ref and now he's a piss poor pundit ref. Which is consistent if nothing else

It is like they have never heard of Conn, Glendenning, Harris (D) etc.
Or their own Guardian in-house LFC propagandist Sachin Nakrani/Charlie Clitlicker

Or an emerging young English talent playing for his boyhood team came on and scored after recently starring for England U21's. If Palmer played for united he would be hyped up incredibly by the media....wouldnt be surprised if we start seeing articles about him needing to go on loan....forgetting Phil's route into the team.

Too late. I've already heard on some pods that unlike Foden, Pep is likely to send Cole out on loan. Some were hoping it would be to a foreign club.

It’s strange that despite the money sloshing around in the PL and all the exposure brands would get, why we haven’t been able to tempt a corporate behemoth like Coca Cola, Amazon or Apple to sponsor us. That would surely propel our income closer to the rags, if not beyond, and give us more to spend on a Norwegian striker, for example. Why aren’t our business people aiming this high regarding shirt sponsorship?

Sports sponsorship is generally used to get your brand know and in the forefront, Coca Cola, Amazon or Apple are already there

Walton wasn't simply piss poor. He was bent.

Not that like I drink the stuff but when was the last time you picked up a bottle of Pepsi with Pogba's face on it?

It would have an adverse effect on their current sales............

Nobody willing to commit during covid. Whole world may need to settle down before large international brand makes a move. I take City's vagueness on the subject to be a reflection of this uncertainty.

Well TeamViewer was willing. That is very very suspicious.

Once we were 3-0 up
