Premier League 2024/25 (Part 2)

Slot was out of order not playing Chiesa and to a lesser extent Harvey. It ruined our season and imagine how much better we’d have been had he done that.

Based on the complaints I’ve seen here, and these are not outliers, that is probably the basis of it.

Hmmm

Ruined our season?

Yes its obviously a sentiment I not only dont agree with but think is absurd. But it was one that was aired here repeatedly through the late winter and spring by more than a few people. So that seems to me to be the most likely thought process for how anyone can report that sort of sentiment in that poll.

Mitre Delta and the Adidas Tango. Those were the only two footballs worthy of recognition

Whenever anyone mentions Mitre, all I can think of is those orange things made out of reinforced plastic that left you with a grazed forehead and concussion if you tried to head them.

They ain’t nothin, when you compare them to the old leather footballs with laces.

I should have been 6ft plus, rather than 5ft nowt, that’s what happens when you head them when they were wet … when I were a lad xxx

So the majority of clubs in the PL are OK with circumventing PSR by selling assets to themselves. No surprise there then.

Basically just stalling the inevitable considering it’s the same rules UEFA are enforcing.

I am not sure this is the right thread but I cannot accept that everybody that plays in Europe on Wednesday play on Sunday in the premier league, Klopp would have gone apoplectic about it and annoyingly Slot react to it by excusing both the FA and the TV schedulers, not only are we playing on Saturday but at 12:30 away at Brighton which is not next door, this is the Sixth or seventh time this happens to us.

Yeah, it’s a recurrent thing, and really hard for our lads, and even more so, for our supporters. The PL really like to fuck us over, and that’s another element to prove it.

But this is not the time to look for excuses. Regardless of this, our lads have to prove now that the Galatasaray performance wasn’t a blip, but the start of a new trend. They owe it to everyone, and to themselves first and foremost.

The rule is if you play away on Wednesday then your game will be moved to later on. It’s silly it doesn’t take into account if you are away on the weekend mind.

BT and TNT who took over seemed very keen to push this and then keep it up with Klopp whenever he complained. Maybe when HBO takeover that disappears.

Big match for ManU tonight. Think they won’t finish lower than 4th if they win tonight.

Bournemouth are unbeaten in the last 9 games.

Unbeaten in their last 5 against Utd, too.

Ratboy is in a rare vein of form…would LOVE the Cherries to pop that bubble.

This is a properly good game. Its been a while since I saw one.

FFS, what a stupid penalty to give away

Clownish

Nice one, lads.
