    PL football on a Friday night !

    Holiday periods apart, when was the last PL game played on a Friday night ?

    That's a rhetorical question, I don't know the answer but I'm sure someone out there will :biggrin:

    Had a bet on outside the box 7-2 and direct free kick 25-1 with Skybet for first goals, got paid last week thanks to Oscar banging one straight in!

    How addictive is the Georgie Best song! Sang it for a month after the last time we played ManUre.

    I backed him to score too, hopefully not as you describe it. He's decent odds for anytime goalscorer, or was, good from set pieces

    This is only because the police said they couldn't police the game on Saturday due to a March and they couldn't play on Sunday as Man Utd have a European game. I see that there will be 10 Friday games in 2016/17 season under the new deal. More problems for fans having to take time off work if they want to watch their team away but fans are the last consideration.
    As for Friday nights can't recall SKY showing any Friday games since they got exclusive rights so that could have been the last time.

    Think Gary Neville jealous of Darmian, overlooked him for MOTM despite him being the standout, Darmian looks very decent, enjoyed the way he was winding up Richards at corners too, something else that Neville missed the point with.

    Sky maximising coverage. So they can now show Friday/Saturday/Sunday/Monday plus any random games that fall midweek.

    I thought that Darmian looked a donkey and a bit agricultural. Should have conceded a penalty and a tackle he made forget which half was diabolical. To me he's too slow and will be caught out this season. The beauty of the difference of opinion. Besides I dislike Man Utd immensely. I've seen some people on Twitter with the bio HCAFC and MUFC fan????? Just What The ****? How the **** does that work?

    Darmian was brilliant for United, very good tackling and interceptions, stopped a lot of crosses coming into the box. Agreed he needs to watch his grappling from corners as he'll cross the line at some point, or the refs will be on the look-out, and he'll concede a pen.

    Dour game on the whole though.

    The causes are up for debate but the most likely cause is sever mid-childhood trauma resulting in the condition which is called Dissociative Identity Disorder.

    I see now. So that's what you suffer from. I wondered why an American NHL fan, with no connection to East Yorkshire, was also supporting Hull City

    I feel I've explained how that happened more than a few times.

    I'm sure I'd fall into some other category though, I'm fairly certain I'm not that insane.

    My dads a Man U fan so I suppose I do have a bit of sympathy for them because of that, my mum supports Arsenal which gives a bit of healthy balance. I'm the only one who supports Hull City though I could easily have turned into one of those half and halves you describe! I know a bit more about the other two because of it. Darmian was a step up from Rafael though, can agree on that maybe?!

    Does it really matter why? All that matter is he does.

    Agreed.
    I had to leave the boozer t'other day, in Spain, as it was full of Man U fans and not a manc accent in site.
    Think i dislike them even more now as before at least they had home grown players. In a year or so every position will have a 30 -100 million pound acquisition in it.
