    If only we had more than one major trophy to our name, I'd be happy for Bournemouth or Brighton to win it.
    But as it is, I agree. I don't want either of them winning it!

    Yeah that's how I see it too. As I said before I can handle being the second most successful club on the south coast but not sure I could the third.

    Don't mind Brighton winning. They represent exactly how a club of that size should be run.

    Bompey can f*ck off though.

    On the flip side you'd have to laugh if Bournemouth won more in a decade than we have in our entire history despite us spending the majority of the last 60 years in the top flight.

    Really hate this fad of creating new rules instead of enforcing the current ones.

    I'll give it 6 weeks.

    I dunno, I wish they'd bring in a rule about feigned head injuries, so tired of seeing the game stopped because a player has been touched on the shoulder and fallen down holding his head, should be a booking.

    Any “head” injury should see the player removed from the pitch for a thorough evaluation that takes longer than the 30 seconds applied to players that receive treatment for other injuries.
    Those who get the ref to stop the game but then get up without treatment should also have to leave the pitch for the same evaluation.

    I'd agree, except we have the odd one like in the Palace Millwall game, and some nasty clash of heads incidents.

    Been saying a while that anyone going down holding their head should have to go off for 3-5 minutes. Wouldn't be worth it then.

    The Football Associated has requested that Millwall’s goalkeeper Liam Roberts receive an increased punishment for his challenge on Jean-Philippe Mateta that led to the striker receiving 25 stitches in his left ear.

    The 2026 World Cup Final will feature a Super Bowl style HT show.
