Rival watch

Says a lot that the main talk on Twitter is all the FPL people bemoaning the fact that Mitrovic isn't starting

 

Odd choice of colours for Arsenal.

 

Nothing wrong with Pink & Blue it's the colours of my first football team Dulwich Hamlet

 

Took Michael Oliver less than 5 mins of the season to give Liverpool a penalty

 

Who had 5 minutes in the sweepstake?

 

Yeah but **** Leeds.

 

1-1

 

Hits his knee and bounces off onto his arm.

 

Are Pools defenders still on the beach?

 

Oliver forced to use the penalty option again.

Edit - notification said penalty, but apparently not

 

Hate to say it but that was a penalty......now Sissoko..........!

 

Which is a penalty according to the current laws 'if the arm has made the body unnaturally bigger'.

 

Poool drawing 3-3 at home to a newly promoted side ??

My money is on they have got a penalty BOGOF from Oliver.

 

Great goals from Leeds reminded me of old fashioned 5 forward football.

 

So the current Premier League penalty count

Liverpool 2
Man Utd 6
Everyone else 0

 

To be fair, the penalty they got at the end was a clear penalty. Rodrigo didn't even complain about it. Why would you make such a lazy, careless challenge in your own box when you're 3 minutes away from securing a fantastic result? Idiocy.

If common sense prevails, I think the first one shouldn't be given though. But, considering what the standard is for conceding a penalty these days, I knew it was going to be given. I guess you can't complain too much when you look at what constitutes a pen in modern football.

 

Fans of the team whose matches kick off from the opponent's penalty spot are less hopeful than ours

...the hell?

Vardy 2

plus ça change

 

When was the last time all 3 promoted clubs lost on opening day?

I put it down to no fans. It has such an effect!

 

To be exact, I called a second penalty for the Poool BEFORE the event.
