Afternoon CM, long time no post!!! Welcome pal. Must be difficult for the ref. Its a shame there isn't a retrospective punishment like a 5 game ban.
Afternoon Wakey, I think Harrison looks more natural down the left wing. I'd love to see Clarke get some proper game time down the right...
I wouldn’t play Roofe out wide, it’s his movement and chasing down the ball that creates extra space and chances for the attacking three. I can’t see Douglas being fit in time if he has a hamstring injury so I feel we’ll be without both attacking fullbacks. Ayling has been a touch off for a couple of games so the extended break might do him well. I don’t really want to see too much chopping and changing so assuming Hernandez, Berardi and Roofe all return it depends if Harrison is included in the team at the expense of Alioski out wide, if he is then Alioski in at LB Personally I’d like to get back to as close a starting lineup as we had for the first few games with the exception of it being Berardi and Pontus together but sadly with our wingbacks out I know that’s not possible.
This is another reason for bringing in a system like putting the matter on report as they do in Rugby League it cannot affect the penalty decision but if the incident is reviewed later any cheating can be punished by a lengthy ban.
https://www.skysports.com/watch/vid...eeds-united/11521317/watkins-pen-an-easy-call Dermot Gallagher says Leeds can have no complaints about the penalty awarded against Brentford. What a ****ing tosser Gallagher is! Watkins is falling before he gets near BPF. BPF does not actually touch him until Watkins falls onto him. Is this dipshit blind or what!!!!!!!
So he condones cheating. I thought refs had been instructed to book players who try to con them by diving. What a useless ****. Didn't we have someone (maybe Saiz) booked recently for a dive in the penalty area?
This is winding me up no end. I can actually understand why the ref gave the penalty because in real time and assuming the ref was standing to the right of the box then yes it looks like BPF brought the cheating cnut down. What I can't accept is twats like Gallagher who can quite clearly view this in slow motion and see the dive in full still comes out with a crass comment saying he agrees with the ref. Any dimwit who has normal vision can see how Watkins cheated the ref. I could accept this (just) if the ref or dickheads like Gallagher reviewed it and said fair enough it was the wrong decision. Why the **** can't they just be honest.
Quite funny... the interviewer clearly thought it was a dive... and someone in the studio shouting dive!
Great pal. Gutted about tghe International break, but if gives the lads on the treatment table time to recover I suppose
