The Premier League Thread

Never a red card offence. The ref (read useless tosser) only gave a red when he saw how bad Gomes injury was. Son should rightly have that red card rescinded immediately.

The standard of refereeing in the PL is atrocious and the confusion with VAR is just making things worse.

 

Looking at the replay it seems that it was not son that caused that injury

 

We play both of those relatively soon too don't we? Both at home as well iirc.

 

Yep; our next two home games, after Everton. And with Norwich being a midweek game, there's just four days between them.

Given that we then end that week away to Newcastle, it's safe to say that that is one massive week for us!

 

Just seen a picture of Gomes injury online .......won’t be playing anytime soon.

 

motd2 using nine day old footage. Well, I'll watch only fools and horse's then in retaliation.

 

Yep just seen it too again. There are people in the crowd holding theirs mouths, others looking away and a couple of young girls looking visibly distressed. Horrific injury. Even a couple of the players couldn't look.

 

I can't look. Still feel sick about seeing the David Busst injury. Burned into my mind.

 

Supposedly only a dislocation rather than a break. I'm no doctor but I have seen dislocations and breaks when playing sports and dislocations look much worse but aren't as bad in terms of recovery than a full break. All comes down to muscle/ligament damage, hopefully for Gomes' sake it isn't too bad despite looking terrible.

 

Both went to general sale today, be interesting to see how they sell.

 

Norwich are a bit rubbish aren't they?


Can see Watford winning at St Marys mind.

 

I can see dulwich winning at SMS in my current state!

 

The only team I can't see winning at sms is us!

 

Great 19th in the table. Why no match thread?

 

Do you have sotonsaint on ignore?

 

This is the only explanation I can think of.

 

No idea!

 

Click on your name at the top of the screen, one of the items on the list will be “People you ignore”. Have a look to see if you are ignoring sotonsaint.

 

Feels slightly surreal that SA and I were having an (amicable) argument earlier this season as to who would finish higher between us and Leicester. And to be fair, whilst I was in absolutely no doubt that it was Leicester, I never saw them being this good. They are, unquestionably in my view, better than when they won the title. A total delight to watch. And with an excellent chance of qualifying for the CL again.

 

Kinda living vicariously through Leicester these days. They're the club we were supposed to be.
