I just have to remember to post on Christmas Day now.

Pretty sure the majority think I'm a **** anyway tbh

Poor Dele having problems balancing again.

That decision shows exactly why you’ll never get rid of diving out of the game. As he’s seen the defenders leg and dived over it. Plenty of pros will just say he’s made the most of it, fair enough, so why bother trying to eradicate it with attitudes like that?

Do you think they'd appreciate me popping by to say hello?

I don't know mate, I'm sure you'd be well behaved and wouldn't say anything like you were right that we should have just sold Virgil would you?

The refs need to start giving pens when players don't go down. Just a foul in the box... very rarely a ref gives a pen without the player going down. That should be the starting point.

Commentators aren’t questioning Alli at all. It was a daft challenge but also a dive IMO.

Been saying this for years, not holding my breath though.

It's annoying alright. Middle of the park, sliding tackle, player skips over the challenge and runs on.
Same tackle in the box, and they'll do their best to make contact and go down. Needs sorting.

I had an odd one yesterday. Had an accy including an Arsenal win. Checked my account as I also had Coutinho to score first...

They paid me for both

I just withdrew all funds and run n dun.

Did you have an acca edge on betfair?

Nah I dunno what I had tbh

Labrookes offer I saw on RedmenTV about opening an account and getting 33/1 on there being 1 goal or more in last night's game. Opened account and saw the max bet was £1

Had 9 left so put half on Coutinho and half on some odds boosted recommended accy. Weird.

 

[Tel (they/them)]

Did Dele avoid another straight red? He's immune it seems.

 

[remembercolinlee]

If that was a red then football is ****ed imo.

I didn't see it tbf, was before I turned the game on.
