French news outlet via twitter: Breaking | Marseille midfielder Pape Gueye suspended by FIFA from playing football as part of their investigation into his transfer in 2018 involving Watford & OM - currently at AFCON with Senegal, he now cannot take part in the competition until further notice. Just to say that's another African country that will hate us!
https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/59995287 With the above link showing Burnley v Foxes off, maybe it won't be the relegation trilogy for us after all.
2.5m € compo apparently. 2 window transfer suspension for Marseille and 4 month suspension for the player.
I think I invoked a curse on Watford Women - was just about to comment that their away match against team at the top, Liverpool, was 0-0 with just six minutes to go, when Liverpool went and scored...
Yaser Asprilla (who was 18 years old at the end of November) made his debut in the second half for the Colombian national team against Honduras and created the winning goal in a 2-1 victory.
According to the ‘super-computer’ that worked out the end of the season, our survival chances are bleak: https://www.shieldsgazette.com/spor...ttle-following-weekend-results-3530193?page=5 That said, they have Burnley surviving, so I predict that this computer is probably only as good as my predicting. Work that out if you’re fashionable enough!
In 1966 during the Vietnam war the Americans fed all the information available, statistics on previous battles with the North Vietnamese Army, weapons and manpower and technology in the most advanced super computer available and asked it to predict how long it would take for America and South Vietnam to defeat the North Vietnamese, the button was pushed on a Friday evening and was left over the weekend to allow for every possible calculation. On the Monday morning they returned to find that after a couple of hours the super computer had worked out that America and South Vietnam had won the war in 1965 You cannot predict which team will win what game because it all depends on who is on form on the actual day

Ten minutes left and the score is 0-0. Apparently only two things of note in the match so far - it was stopped for a while after the ref was injured, and Charlton missed a penalty.
Final score 1-1. Ryan Cassidy put Watford ahead in the 90th minute, only for Charlton to equalise in added time.
