Lex Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 What a game that was again, Barclays delivering some right rip snorters this season. Title race well on. That reffing decision at the end one of the most bizarre I’ve ever seen, rightly plays the advantage, looks up, sees Grealish running through on goal, brings it back for the free kick 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albeit, that shouldn't matter as it would have gone to var if he scored and he looked on? It's the only thing I can think of otherwise it's a truly baffling call 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The linesman was itching to flag and I assumed that he said he was offside to the referee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrewDon Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 That was absolutely outstanding from Simon Hooper, by the way. The timing of the whistle, the initial advantage, the manner in which he swats away the City protests. 10/10. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrewDon Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 Also a huge admirer of the Fulham fans sitting down at Liverpool away. Superbly on-brand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He obviously wanted to play advantage, but once he became aware that it was a clear an obvious Jack Grealish who was through on goal it's an easy decision to make. Strong refereeing. Incidentally, Drury is quickly descending to Crocker levels of asininity. "He feasted on his moment". Ooft. And in case we didn't get his point "he was hungry for that" was added seconds later. Pish. Not fishing for red dots or anything, but not a fan of a female commentator and having two of them for the Liverpool game sounded awful. Whenever anything exciting happened the sound was like seagulls round a bin. Dreadful. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salvo Montalbano Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 1 minute ago, SH Panda said: Chelsea fans were applauding Gilmour during the Brighton game, he had a good game too. Sure they would have much rather kept him than the uber donkey Gallagher. From a fantasy perspective, taking Watkins out for Nunez was a painful experience. It's weird how Gallagher now seems a mainstay for both Chelsea and in the England squad, because I really don't see what he offers. He runs around a lot and he's technically reasonably good but surely there must be more than I'm not seeing. It's baffling. Just caught their game this morning and their winning penalty was a stinker I think. Mudryk overruns it, Milner comes across him to make sure the keeper can collect and there's a slight coming together. Surely that isn't enough for a "Clear and obvious error" when the referee has seen it? Also, why did they send Pawson to the monitor for the handball shout at the end? Surely the VAR just says "it hit his head, no pen, just a corner" and they'd have saved a few minutes? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

accies1874 Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 (edited) Would you rather be rooted to the bottom or rooted to Heckingbottom? I'd opt for the former tbh. Edited December 4, 2023 by accies1874 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he'd only let play continue a bit longer the Spurs player would have had to cynically chop him down. Man City would still have dropped points and Spurs would have a player suspended which would arguably be a better outcome overall But somehow not quite so dramatically pleasing 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
