This commentator on BT is spaffing his pants at the prospect of Rochdale scoring again. This some plum said earlier that we are making hard work if it. Yeah, having 2 good goals disallowed is making hard work of it, prick
What has happened to Harry Winks - truly appalling unfortunately - Only ref and the horribly biased commentator have had a worse half.
Ref issues a yellow, then asks his man in the box if there’s any way it can be turned into a red. ****.
Bloke's useless mate. Tired of giving him benefit of the doubt because he's an academy player. Wouldn't be arsed if he was sold in the summer, nowhere near good enough.
He’s out of form and has lost confidence since his injury. There’s definitely a player in there, but he needs to get back to speed ****ing quickly. Doesn’t help being thrown into a team with Sissoko and Llorente all the ****ing time.
Abject is the word that comes to mind. And putting him alongside Sissoko. FFS! Ridiculous VAR issues, but Rochdale still looked better, faster and stronger. Pathetic, embarrassing performance. No excuses....
Both games have seen him get taken out halfway through the first half (both times without the ref brandishing a yellow card, by the way) and after that he's been backpasses only. On the subject of Percy ****witson, The FA have added him to the list of FIFA refs, so the good news is there's a good chance he doesn't get out of Russia alive this summer.
Can't blame the players for the referee being an absolute tool but can blame them for having a terrible touch, I get it that the weather is bad but the Rochdale players have adapted better..could be coz they are used to **** conditions but we are supposed to have the better calibre of players Foyth has been like a rabbit caught in the headlights...looks out of his depth against ****ing Rochdale! **** it...send the big guns on
I’m sticking a fiver on a Rochdale win.everyone is desperate for it to happen I may as well make some money out of it if they get what they want
The reserves are not cutting it are they. Do we have another Arsenal 1 Swindon Town 3 on the cards. I think Poch has completely lost it with this lot....I hope I'm wrong. When I saw Llorente's name on the sheet.....please do something Llorente.....and Rose,do you know you are a left back?
Biggest twat of the match so far. Vote now: 1) Paul “SiSOCKko” Dempsey 2) The Officials 3) The VAR team
The problem with VAR is that it doesn't fit in with football's unwritten laws. One of those is that players can tug each other's shirt when it's six of one and half a dozen of the other. Sports like cricket and rugby are more willing to accept technical infringements. If a bowler's foot is a fraction of an inch over the line, it's a no ball and the wicket doesn't stand. If a player doesn't ground the ball properly or there is a slight knock on, it's no try. The culture of football may have to change if VAR is the future. Any technical infringements may prove costly, however minor.
I'd say he's level with Sissoko and Llorente. To date, he's had about 4-5 good game since breaking through. West Ham last season and Madrid this season come to mind and I'm sure there's been one or two others. Either side of those he's offered nothing in my opinion. Sissoko has had as many good games as he has. I'm pretty sure that if I could be arsed, I could go back about 1 or 2 years ago to where I said Josh was always the better talent but never had the chances in his preferred role to prove it. If we can afford Winks this amount of time in the first team in his favoured CM role then I hope next season we can do the same for Josh, that lad IS a talent but he needs to be around quality to prove it, not played in B teams or played RW.
What about the dickheads at the other end taking 2 minutes to make a decision? AND you always get dickheads that's why we were told you need VAR this proves to me it is an absolute waste of space.
