I said he’s a first pick in midfield and it’s arguable that he’s the best midfielder we’ve got. Mainly in response to you deriding that view because he misplaced a pass. I don’t know why you think it’s such a ridiculous shout. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shizzlemanizzle Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 (edited) Right, I’m away. Todays circus is done. Enjoyed the clowns and the freaks but more so the hot takes on said clowns and freaks. To all the non old firm fans, respect. We could all have chosen to be gloryseeking wanks under the auspices of “aye but my grandads carers mums hairdresser is married to a guy that supports (insert sectarian A or B)” . See you all for the next circus freak show. Special mention to every single decent old firm fan. Both of you.

Let’s say other than Eusebio. Rui Manuel Costa, one of the finest midfield players ever to grace a football field. Absolutely schooled Beckham and his pals from 0-2 down at Euro 2000. No dives ever necessary in his toolkit. Edited April 7 by Barney Rubble 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tremendous entertainment spoiled only by the idiots talking over the seethe from the stands. Ha, same, I was out so listening to it in the car, the noise of absolute glee Pat Bonner made when the Dessers goal was disallowed had me howling. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Small differences but important ones Getting the ball doesn't define if theres a foul or not, johnson nicks the ball then brings his foot up and catches silva on the knee Does he make a meal of it, damn right, but is it a foul, yes it is, so for the ref to award a dive and a yellow for what was shown as contact and a foul in the box is a clear abd obvious error Was it a clear and obvious error when the ref missed the foul in the build up to dessers goal? Yes or no? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
