    Just shows what a tragic organisation the PL is. Define ****loads btw? Was 25k when wolves were fined a decade ago.

    I support a football club rather than their bank balance. Ask the players to put up a grand or two if times are really that bad.

    Yes! This!

    If I take 90% of the pace of a ball on the goal-line but there's still enough to get it over the line I'm allowed to use my arm to block it? I mean, thats the scenario right? Cash took slightest touch off his thigh, blocked the shot with a reaching arm and its ok. Utter bullshit.

    As per what I was talking about earlier with there being multiple frames of playing the ball:

    79930DEB-D3B2-4EE2-A4A1-5500170BE53D.thumb.jpeg.935d5264d353f8f2c4ac4e85602747f1.jpeg

    Is that stopped when he first struck the ball or when it left his foot? How is playing the ball defined? If you took that back a single frame does it still show the ball being struck but with Danny onside?

    I'll let people make their own mind up.

    Thats a worry for morale. Does he really think we need to lose 10 of the starting 11? Does he think his team are that bad? Could be quite a misunderstandig when it gets quoted all oveer the place.

    Either way level isn't onside, thats obvious. It should be, llike thats the ****ing rule isnt it? But that's not how its being implemented because he is clearly level with the defender.

    Isnt everyone skint tho? Every club outside the top 6 is losing money right?

    I'm not defending Gao but I wouldn't expect much more from any owner at present. Longer term our investment levels are **** but our signings have been outstanding.

    Most premier league teams lose money, it’s just some/most are propped up by owners, we unfortunately aren’t. We haven’t been playing the same game as most other teams in the league in the transfer market for a long time

    Yep, I'm not arguing for the owner, I'd be glad to see him replaced with someone wealthier and more generous but I wouldn't expect many Billionaires even to be digging into their bitcoin accounts for us at the moment. Previous seasons investments arent necessarily a guide for what any club will do this year or next.

    Despite the decisions, despite the result, despite the arguments on here, all it takes is one post to make me laugh again.

    I haven't been angry over our games since the offside in the cup final v Utd.

    I've woken up and I'm still ****ed off.

    It isn't just **** officiating, it is cheating.

    I wonder with how fast they decided Ings was offside, which was quick, they just thought, nah, dont want to allow the goal.

    And with Mason and Dean, I bet they're ****ing themselves silly on a Teams call still now over their performance.

    No :)

    rest as many players as possible before the cup game and then if we win, each round. Make a mockery of the league games as the officials and rules are.

    Tom seriously? **** the league. **** the authorities. They have the same black and white attitude that you apply to football situations and like you are with this.

    Let’s go one better and make sure it is a title affecting or relegation affecting game we play the kids in. They made teams play the kids due to Covid, so they don’t care about anything other than their money.

    I’ll start a crowd finding page for the fine if you’re more worried about that.

    The game is being ruined when they promised everyone it will make things better. The fact we are all playing so many games is just down to their desire to squeeze everything in because they find the game more important than life.

    Utter w4nkers running our game.

    I'd love it if we started acting up in this manner. They've made it farcical so let's just carry that on.

    Best league in the world my ****ing arse.

    I’m with you Libs. I’m not sure I believe I could ever be done with the game, but it’s going through my mind.
